Drivers Manual
Reson Seabat 7K (TCP Network) Pipe Tracking - 20
Description
Driver that decodes the Detected pipe record (2004) from a Reson Seabat 7K series Multibeam Echosounder using a TCP network connection. This driver acts as a client.
On start-up the 2004 record is requested from the Seabat 7K Server. Driver is set up to work as a "pipe tracker" multibeam system with 5 beams.
If the Reson will be detecting two pipes simultaneously then it is required to add two "pipe tracker " multibeam systems to the template.
The Latest Teledyne Reson FP4 software update contains a real time pipe detection algorithm. Through various parameters in the Seabat UI the behavior of the Detection Algorithm can be determined.
Every xx number of pings (currently 25) a 2004 record is output by the system and sent over to Qinsy.
At the time of writing this 2004 record contains the following markers:
| Marker | At Index In 2004 record |
|---|---|
| Seabed Left | 0 |
| Trench Left adjacent to pipe | 1 |
| Top of Pipe | 2 |
| Trench Right adjacent to pipe | 3 |
| Seabed Right | 4 |
