Kongsberg EM 710
For the 2° x 2° system, the TRU are compressed in one 19”
sub-rack.
The number of circuit boards will depend upon the chosen
transducer configuration. Twisted pair Ethernet is used for data
communication with the Operator Station.
Operator Station
The Operator Station of the EM 710 is the HWS high
performance dual-processor PC workstation. The operator
software is the Seafloor Information System (SIS). The HWS
dual bootable to either Linux® or Windows XP®.
SIS, as a minimum, allows setting the EM 710 installation and
runtime parameters, data logging and running self-test on the
system without restrictions.
The SIS software also includes functionality for survey planning,
2D and 3D geographical display of the survey results, seabed
image and water column displays, plus real-time data cleaning
algorithms.
Alternatively, third-party software solutions can be used for the
operator interface and real-time processing.
The HWS is normally supplied with a 19” industrialized LCD
monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels. Support for a
second monitor is included. A spill-proof US keyboard and a
standard optical mouse is normally supplied, but optionally a
small IP 65 rated keyboard with integrated track stick can be
delivered.
