1. Introduction
A SeaKing Profiler System is made up from the Profiler, the Tritech
International Ltd Seanet Pro control and display software and either a Surface
Control Unit (SCU) or SeaHub. This manual deals with the Profiler and any
specific aspects of Seanet Pro that are necessary to get a system working. For
more details of Seanet Pro please refer to the Seanet Pro Software Manual
and further details of the SeaHub or SCU can also be found in their respective
manuals (all current manuals are available on www.tritech.co.uk).
The Seanet Pro software is Windows based and provides control of the
complete range of profilers that Tritech International Ltd produce. It is also
possible to display multiple devices within Seanet Pro and as such two or
more Profilers can be networked together and displayed on one computer.
The SeaKing Profiler is typically configured to communicate with the SCU
or SeaHub using the ARCNET LAN telemetry protocol. This is the standard
protocol that is used in all SeaKing devices and provides a high bandwidth at
a default communications rate of 156kbit·s-1. It is also possible to reconfigure
sensors to communicate at a lower rate or using serial protocols (such as
RS232 or RS485).
The SeaKing DFP has the following features:
Scan rate The heads can achieve a very fast scan
rate which gives faster target acquisition.
Dual Frequency Operation The SeaKing DFP can use up to two
operating frequencies - one giving long
range target acquisition characteristics
and the other giving shorter range, higher
definition, profiling capability.
Protected transducer The SeaKing devices have a rigid
plastic boot, and offer protection of the
transducer head.
Electrical Connection The SeaKing uses a Tritech International
Ltd 6 pin waterblock but can be fitted with
an alternative connector on request.
Communication Protocols
Units fitted with a V6 COM PCB are capable of communicating
on ARCNET, RS232 and RS485. Units fitted with earlier revisions
COM PCB will only be able to communicate on ARCNET or RS232.
If you are unsure which COM PCB is fitted to your unit, please
contact Tritech International Ltd for assistance.

3. Installation
3.1. General Overview
The SeaKing heads are supplied with a waterblock fitted to the device and
as standard a proprietary connector usually referred to as the "Tritech 6-
Way Connector". Other connectors are available and various lengths of test
cable can be supplied with the connector. For more details contact Tritech
International Ltd.
The waterblock is fastened to the body tube of the head, and provides
a 4000m rated pressure bulkhead. This will protect the electronics from
water ingress in case the connector is damaged or not fitted correctly. The
connector may be disconnected from the heads by unscrewing the four
securing screws.
Note
It is not necessary to remove the waterblock when removing the
connector. While the connector is removed from the head, the
blanking plugs supplied should be fitted to prevent the ingress of
dirt or moisture.
3.2. Seanet Pro Software
The Seanet Pro Windows software will be provided either on an Installation
CD-ROM (for SeaHub interface to user computer) or pre-installed on the
Seanet SCU.
For the CD Installation, if Setup does not auto-run on disc insertion, run the
SETUP.EXE file from the disc to start the installation.
3.3. Installing the Profiler Head
!
Caution
Although the profiler heads are rugged, they should be handled
with care, particularly the connector and transducer.
The heads should be secured by clamping on the cylindrical body section
such that the transducer is unimpeded and not shielded. A guard can be fitted
