SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual System Description 2. 974-25007001/2.0 Page 2.3 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION 2.1 INTRODUCTION This section explains the theory of operation of the SL 30/35 Mechanical Scanning Sonar System. 2.1.1 Basic Principles • Sound waves travel very efficiently through water. • A sound pulse can be projected through water in a controlled direction with the sonar transducer.
974-25007001/2.0 Page 2.4 SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual System Description After the TVG correction, the absolute levels of the received signals will be determined by the acoustic response of the reflecting target. The sonar processor system repeatedly measures the TVG corrected target levels by digitizing a sequence of samples after each sound pulse transmission. Each sample is then plotted on the video display at the appropriate position according to its range and bearing.

SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual Menu and Software Description 974-25007001/2.0 Page 4.13 probably set the gain too high. Adjust the gain so that about only about 5% of the total image is shown in the saturation color If you are trying to track a moving target, or track a target from a moving vehicle, use the scan reverse button (or Scan Reverse in the Operations Menu) to improve the update rate on the target Limit the Sector Width to the area of interest to maximize the update rate.
974-25007001/2.0 Page 4.14 SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual Menu and Software Description • Adjust the Range control to the setting you need • Adjust the Sector Heading and Width controls so the sonar will scan the area you want to cover • Adjust the Scan Speed as desired. This will trade off image quality against update rate • Adjust the Gain control; a good starting point is 50 percent 4.
SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual Menu and Software Description 974-25007001/2.0 Page 4.15 To calculate a sound velocity based on temperature and salinity estimates or measurements: • In the Configuration Menu, select Parameters • Click on the Sound Velocity tab to open the Parameters | Sound Velocity dialog box • In the Calculate from Temperature, Salinity, Depth box, enter estimates of water Temperature, Salinity and Depth of the sonar head.
974-25007001/2.0 Page 4.16 SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual Menu and Software Description 4.19.4 Shadows Most targets will block the transmission of sound either by reflecting it or absorbing it. This will leave a shadowed area beyond the target that is not ensonified and therefore will not generate any echoes. This is very similar to the shadow formed when an object is illuminated with a single light source.
SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual Menu and Software Description 974-25007001/2.0 Page 4.17 4.19.7 Range Scale and Target Size When looking at any sonar image you must keep in mind the range scale you are using, the position of the sonar relative to the target you are looking for, and the size of the target. For example, a target the size of a beer can will be very small and probably not visible on a one hundred meter range scale. 4.19.
974-25007001/2.0 Page 4.18 SL 30/35 Hull Sonar Operators Manual Menu and Software Description • Adjust the Sector Heading and Width to limit the area of coverage to the minimum required • Use the shortest range setting that gives the required coverage • Select the Low Resolution mode • Use the Scan Reverse control 4.22 to repaint a target as quickly as possible HOW TO USE THE MULTIPLE USER FEATURE The SL35 allows you to save the system settings under different user names.
