Installing the Sonar Processor
The Sonar Processor is the computer that controls the Flexview system. It is a vital part of
the Flexview Multibeam sonar.
Prerequisites
A suitable location for the computer must be defined prior to installation. This computer is
intended to be installed inside in an area suitable for extended human habitation. Choose
a position to fit the available cable lengths between the computer and the other units it
connects to.
Caution
Ensure electronic components are free from condensation before turning on. Condensation
can occur when transitioning from a cool air-conditioned environment to a hot and humid
environment – such as outside on an open boat. These parts should also be protected from
coming into contact with water, sea-spray, etc. Failure to do so could result in component
failure.
Context
The Sonar Processor uses a high-quality commercial-off-the-shelf laptop computer
workstation.
