Gemini 720im Warning Symbols Throughout this manual the following symbols may be used where applicable to denote any particular hazards or areas which should be given special attention: Note This symbol highlights anything which would be of particular interest to the reader or provides extra information outside of the current topic. Important When this is shown there is potential to cause harm to the device due to static discharge. The components should not be handled without appropriate protection to prevent such a discharge occurring. Caution This highlights areas where extra care is needed to ensure that certain delicate components are not damaged. Warning DANGER OF INJURY TO SELF OR OTHERS Where this symbol is present there is a serious risk of injury or loss of life. Care should be taken to follow the instructions correctly and also conduct a separate Risk Assessment prior to commencing work. Document: 0729-SOM-00002, Issue: 4 4 © Tritech International Ltd. Gemini 720im 1. Introduction The Gemini 720im fuses Tritech’s Gemini Multibeam technology with Tritech’s Micron technology to create the world’s smallest Multibeam imaging sonar. Having a 90° horizontal field of view and 50m end range, with an update rate up to 20Hz and incredibly compact dimensions the Gemini 720im can be used in applications where size is critical. This makes the Gemini 720im ideally suited for micro ROV/AUV’s in addition to applications where space is restricted or weight is critical, including diver helmet and pole mounted applications such as Search and Recovery (SAR) operations. The Gemini 720im communicates with Tritech’s next generation integrated software suite Genesis using Ethernet or Tritech’s advanced Serial Multibeam Protocol (TSMP). The auxiliary port on the sonar allows for the daisy chaining of sensors including the Micron USBL Modem and Micron Echo Sounder. Advanced adaptive processing ensures that the most detailed image possible is generated regardless of range. This includes automatic switching between Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse (CHIRP) and Continuous Wave (CW) modes of operation to maximize image definition. Tritech’s next generation integrated software suite Genesis is supplied with the Gemini 720im and is available from the Tritech website, supporting all Tritech’s sensors. There is also a Windows® and Linux Software Development Kit (SDK) for the sonar to allow users to fully integrate the Gemini 720im into a customised system.
