Overview: The document details the specifications and features of the Imagenex Model 881L Digital Multi-Frequency Imaging and Profiling Sonar, designed for underwater applications such as ROV, AUV, UUV operations, and more.
Applications and Features: Suitable for diverse applications including sunken timber recovery and scientific research, the sonar features Ethernet communication, programmability, multi-frequency operation, and low power consumption. It offers a range from 1 m to 200 m and is compact in size.
Hardware Specifications: Operating at frequencies of 310 kHz, 675 kHz, or 1 MHz, the sonar has a fluid-compensated imaging transducer with varying beam widths. It supports a maximum depth of 1000 m or 3000 m and cable lengths up to 9000 m with an Ethernet extender.
Software Specifications: The Win881L.exe software is compatible with Windows 95 to XP, supporting various scan modes and requiring minimal system resources. It allows continuous rotation and various step sizes.
Ordering Information: Options include units for different depths and customizable connectors and IP addresses.
Additional Notes: Includes details on external trigger options, operation instructions, and software functionalities like file management and sound velocity adjustments.
GPS Input Configuration: Allows selection of a serial port for GPS data using NMEA 0183 strings, with options to enable or disable the port.
Multi-Frequency Operation: Automatically adjusts frequency and pulse length based on range, with specific parameters for different sonar types.
Settings and Misc Menus: Users can adjust sonar parameters and access features like pixel zoom and diagnostics.
Profile and Auto-Profile Functions: Configure display modes and automatically scan and save profile points.
Measurement Tools: Provide distance and bearing measurements relative to the transducer origin.
Data Storage and Commands: Details the .81L file format and switch data command structure for data transmission and reception.
Sonar Theory and Applications: Explains basic sonar terminology and imaging techniques, emphasizing fan-shaped beam scanning.
Imaging and Profiling Sonar: Imaging sonar serves as a viewing tool, while profiling sonar uses narrow beams for detailed surface scanning.
