7 TRANSPONDER CONFIGURATION<br />

This section holds information about the configuration of a<br />

transponder. All <strong>transponders</strong> are configured by the<br />

manufacturer. The configuration may be altered if required. The<br />

procedure to perform alterations will depend on the HiPAP /<br />

HPR system in use.<br />

A transponder can operate with the following topside systems:<br />

HiPAP<br />

HPR 400 <strong>series</strong><br />

HPR 300 <strong>series</strong><br />

Each transponder <strong>series</strong> is dedicated to a specific frequency<br />

b<strong>and</strong>.<br />

Altering the configuration, switching between the operating<br />

systems or changing the channel settings is done by:<br />

Acoustic telemetry.<br />

(A HiPAP or a HPR 400 system is required).<br />

Use of internal switches.<br />

(Located on the microcontroller board).<br />

A large number of transponder channels are available<br />

(depending on the selected system) to prevent interference<br />

between <strong>transponders</strong>, if several are located in the same area<br />

(a channel being an interrogation <strong>and</strong> reply frequency<br />

combination).<br />
