Description

The COMPuting and Telemetering Transponder (Compatt) is a microcomputer controlled subsea transponder used for acoustic navigation and positioning. The EHF system is suitable to a wide range of tasks such as underwater measurement, remote control and monitoring. The Type 7801 Compatt Mk4 is the Extra High Frequency (50-110 kHz) version of Sonardyne’s fourth generation family of transponders built to complement the existing range of Long Baseline products. Its lightweight design permits easy sub- sea installation and removal by divers and ROVs making it an ideal tool for use in spoolpiece measurement applications. Key Features

  • Sequential mode operation with twelve individual channel frequencies
  • Simultaneous receiver card for high speed positional updates fitted as standard
  • Unique addresses allow up to 768 Compatts to be used in close proximity
  • Programmable address codes
  • Conventional Enable and Disable commands for normal transponder operation
  • Advanced telemetry facility replies to all commands with Compatt address, confirmation of command executed and error-checking
  • Direct measurement of baselines between Compatts greatly improves array calibration accuracy
  • Baseline measurement 20 mm
  • Temperature and depth measurements allow sea-bed sound velocity evaluation
  • Battery check records remaining battery capacity and time since last charge
  • Remote status Monitory
  • Cycle mode permits up to eight preset commands to be executed on receipt of one command
  • Internal tilt sensor ±45°
  • Battery count auto-disable at 90% battery pack usage.
