Safety Notices
The installer of the equipment is solely responsible for
the correct installation of the equipment. WASSP Ltd.
assumes no responsibility for any damage associated
with incorrect installation.
Electrical Safety
►Fire, electrical shock, or equipment damage may occur if
the BTxR becomes wet.
►The equipment is rated for operation at:
• BTxR 24 V DC
• WASSP
Processor
9 - 32 V DC
(Check the PC power supply to
verify this before connecting an
incorrect voltage!)
►Make sure that the power is switched OFF at the main
supply (e.g. switchboard) before beginning the installation.
Fire or electrical shock may occur if the power is left ON.
►Do not open equipment covers unless you are totally
familiar with the system’s electrical circuits.
►Make sure all safety precautions for electrical equipment
are taken when operating or servicing the equipment.
These to be carried out in accordance with local or na-
tional regulatory body safety regulations.
►Make sure that the transducer will not loosen due to the
vessels vibration.

Installation Manual
1. Purpose of this Manual
This installation manual describes the procedures to install the following WASSP equipment:
►Transducer
►BTxR (Transceiver)
►WASSP Processor
►WASSPsoftwareandrmwareforWASSPProcessorandBTxR.
It also provides procedures to commission the WASSP system during dockside and sea trials.
2. Introduction
TheWASSPisamultibeamsonarsystemthatusesawide-anglesonartransducertoprole
thewatercolumnandseaoortoahighresolution.Itisthisuniquecombinationofmultibeam
sonar and computer processing power which provides you with unparalleled information about
the underwater environment. It gives you a wide 120° port-starboard swath of the water column
andsea-oor,allowingyoutondandpositionreefsandwrecks,seaoorhardnesschanges,
andforeignobjectsinthewatercolumnoronthesea-oor.Fromthe120°swath,thesystem
processes 224 dynamic beams, with each beam containing detections from the water column
andsea-oor.
The WASSP can be applied to a variety of survey methods, as well as search and rescue,
customs, and police applications.
The information is presented in a user-friendly, mouse controlled, Windows-based operating
system. The system can output data to plotting and hydrographic software packages. For
optimal performance, roll, heave, pitch, heading and position inputs are all required.
The effectiveness of motion correction depends on both the quality of sensors and the quality
of input data. Accurate ship measurements must be taken and the dockside and sea trial
commissioning procedures carried out thoroughly.
2.1 Main Features
►Simple to use
►Improved performance.
The use of separate transmit and receive arrays has enabled WASSP Ltd. to optimise both
transmit performance and receive sensitivity, giving improved performance over traditional
sonar and sounders.
►High detail picture of the marine environment.
The transmit beam spreads over a 120° port-starboard swath and covers 4° fore-aft while
the receive beam covers 10° fore-aft, displaying a highly detailed picture of the marine
environment.
►Beam stabilisation.

►Variable beam width.
Unique to the WASSP, the single beam view can not only be stabilised, but the beam width
can be varied from 5° to 40°.
►Bottom lock.
Bottom lock provides a traditional bottom lock mode where the changes in bottom depth are
ignoredandthebottomisdrawnat.Echoesareshownrelativetotheatbottomimage,

5. Transducer
5.1 Transducer Type
TheWASSPsystemusesatransducerintendedtobeeitherpolemountedorushmounted
inside the hull through a suitable opening to allow the bottom face of the transducer to be in
contact with the sea water.
Thetransducerisarectangular-shaped,low-proletransducerforthrough-hullmounting,
encased in a sealed sea chest made to suit the vessel’s hull dead rise angle. The transducer is
best suited to steel and aluminium hulls.
A sea chest for housing and sealing the transducer should be designed and constructed by a
reputable shipyard to suit the size and contours of the hull of each individual vessel. This must
be sized and constructed accurately.
The sea chest provides a stable platform for the transducer and must be mounted as horizontal
to the vessel’s waterline as possible. An optional gland supplied by WASSP Ltd. in alloy, plastic,
or steel, provides the transducer cable through-hull seal.
The transducer is supplied standard with a 10m cable. Different cable lengths are available.
Please ask your WASSP representative for details.
