InstallationTo ensure safe handling of the equipment:1. Inspect each transit case or shipping box for physical damage prior to opening.2. Inspect each component for physical damage before installation. Check forobvious damage and abuse, including splits, dents, cracks, broken controls,scratches, lodged foreign objects, damaged connectors, excess moisture,and burn marks.3. Use adequate packaging and shock-absorbing materials to ship or store anyequipment or accessories that are stored outside of the supplied transitcases.4. Do not drop the equipment or place the head in an area where the faces ofthe projector or hydrophone may be scratched or damaged.5. Do not place liquids on or near the equipment where the liquid might spill intothe pointer device or electronic components.6. Do not smoke or spill ashes on or near the pointer device.Ensure that the equipment is properly secured before putting out to sea.2.3 Component ChecklistAfter unpacking the transit cases, perform an inventory check using the packing/shippinglist. Note that smaller items, such as power cords, manuals, etc.may be stored in the lids of the cases, under the foam padding.2.4 Location of System UnitsThe SeaBat <strong>8101</strong> system has five standard units that require proper placementon the survey vessel or platform:1. Sonar Processor2. Sonar Processor to Sonar Head Signal and Control Cable3. Sonar Head4. Color Video Monitor5. TrackballNOTERESON recommends that, for added protection, the equipment be moved to alocation near the operating position before the cases are opened.______________________________________________________________________SeaBat <strong>8101</strong> Operator's Manual 2-2 Version 3.02
InstallationPrior to installation, consideration should be given to the following items.• The Sonar Processor should be located in an area that is not exposed to theweather but within the 25 meter length of the interconnection cable. If a longercable is required, contact RESON engineering. This unit may be rack or tablemounted in the general vicinity of the operator; close enough to allow easyaccess to the front panel On/Off switch and to allow the connection of theTrackball and Monitor cables. Note that the trackball can be connected to eitherthe front or rear panel of the Sonar Processor.• The Sonar Processor to Sonar Head Signal and Control Cable should berouted with no tight bends (see paragraph 2.4.5.2) or strain on either connector,away from sharp edged metal structures, and sufficiently protected fromfoot traffic. Do not stretch this cable to make a connection. If necessary, movethe equipment to allow a strain-free connection.• The Sonar Head must be securely mounted in a relatively turbulence freearea and as far away from any hull mounted machinery as possible. If themounting device is a moveable or retractable pole, care should be taken tominimize any Sonar Head motion due to bending or vibration of the pole. Inaddition, verify that the pole attachment hardware is not a source of rattling,or other mechanical noise. Another consideration in placement of the head, isthe 25 meter length of the cable to the Sonar Processor. If a longer cable isrequired, contact RESON engineering.• The Color Video Monitor and Trackball are the primary tools for the operatorand should be located in a reasonably comfortable work area with a suitableflat surface to allow access to operating logs, and note books.1. Place the monitor on a surface that allows a comfortably seated operator toview the screen at a 10 to 40 degree downward angle. Allow adequate aircirculation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the monitor on surfaces(rugs, blankets, etc.) or near material (curtains, draperies) that mayblock the ventilation openings.2. Do not install the monitor in a location near heat sources such as radiators orair ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanicalvibration, salt spray, or shock.3. Use equipment straps, clamps, or other securing devices to ensure that theinstallation is seaworthy.2.4.1 General Installation GuidelinesThe sonar head is supplied with a full set of installation drawings intended for usein fabricating unique mounting hardware is provided in Chapter 9 of this manual.If the mounting structure is movable, such as an over-the-side pole, use care inpositioning the sonar head to sonar processor cable to avoid damage when mov-______________________________________________________________________SeaBat <strong>8101</strong> Operator's Manual 2-3 Version 3.02
