INTRODUCTION TO DEPTHTRAX
®
INTELLIGENT SON AR
DepthTrax
®
Intelligent Sonar uses SONAR sound waves to
detect depth and define bottom contour, composition and
structure. Using specialized microprocessors, these sound
waves are generated by the DepthTrax
®
display and sent to
the DepthTrax
®
Sonar Sensor
(Transducer)
. The sonar
sensor, acting first as a “speaker”, emits these sound waves
as a series of pulses. Then, microseconds later, the sonar
sensor switches to a “microphone” and listens for the return of
the pulses as they bounce off of objects in the water column
(referred to as “echoes”).
The “echoes” are sent back to the
display where, using proprietary algorithms in the DepthTrax
®
software, they are analyzed for location, size, and
composition. These signals are then arranged by
DepthTrax’s
®
Human Interface Software, filtered, and only the
depth readings are shown on the display.
