3.3 Antennas
The MIRA option is connected to the antennas by means of coaxial lines, carrying control signals and
digitized data. Deployed for data acquisition, numerous cables will be connected to the option and,
therefore, it is recommended to be mounted as a fixed installation, whatever the carrying system may
be. Care should also be taken for minimizing the environmental stress on the option, such as rain,
temperature variations etc. However, when a standardized package is purchased, these kinds of
practical issues will be taken care of by MALÅ Geoscience.
The cables between the antennas and the MIRA option are connected according to Fig. 3.6 below.
Note!
In order for the MIRASoft data acquisition software to work, the numbering of the connectors
must follow the antennas.
Fig 3.6
The cables from the antennas are connected to the MIRA option. Observe that the connectors
are marked both on the antennas and on the MIRA option, with T (Transmitter), R (Receiver) and D
(Data). The T and R are found on one side and D on the other.
