June 2004 Isis® Sonar User's Manual, Volume 2 124
Appendix I Working With Specific Sonars
Different brands and models of sonars have settings and modes of operation that are unique
to them. Isis handles these differences by displaying dialog boxes that are specific to those
various sonar types. From dialog boxes specific to a sonar you want to use, you choose
options functions your sonar needs in order to work with Isis. This appendix documents a
wide variety of side-scan and multibeam sonars that interface with Isis. Additionally, several
of the sonars have server software associated with them. Server software is documented in
Appendix J (‘Server Software for Isis’) in this manual. For general information about
setting up sonars for Isis, see
‘4.1 Sonar Setup,’ in the Isis User’s Manual, Volume 1.
The different makes and models of sonars have their own server file names associated with
them. These choices are reflected in the general Sonar Setup dialog box (Figure 4-6 on
page 70 of the
Isis User’s Manual, Volume 1). In some cases, Isis may need to know about
a control programs in order to achieve full functionality for the chosen sonar. This relationship
of sonar names to server names to control programs are listed in Table I-130.
