Control Unit

The control unit is designed for control of all Georadar operating modes.
The control unit receives commands from the notebook computer by Ethernet interface, calculates the current parameters for the antenna unit and transfers them via RS-485 interface to the antenna unit, transfers commands of operating mode to the antenna unit, receives the data from the antenna unit, makes the secondary processing of these data and transfers the processed data to the notebook via Ethernet interface.
The voltage converter, designed for notebook power supply unit is built into the control unit
An external control keyboard and an automobile odometer are provided as extra options. Two channel control unit allows to perform synchronous scanning by two antenna units and work separately with any series antenna unit included into ОКО-2.
There is no mutual impact of the antenna units on each other and scanning velocity is up to 12 km/h in the two channel mode.

Control & Processing Unit

A control & processing unit, is designed to control all Geordar operation modes, to display georadiolocaton profiles in the screen, to record them on a flash-disk, to execute the initial processing of the obtained material and to exchange data with the PC via Ethernet interface. The control & processing unit operates with the antenna units directly, a notebook computer and a control unit are not required in this case.
The control & processing unit was created especially for operation in unfavourable conditions and is produced as all climates option (workability is guaranteed within the temperature range -20 …+50°С).
Data is put out onto a colored LCD display indicator with an enhanced contrast ratio, size 6.5’’, with a resolution 640х480 points. The obtained data are recorded on the built-in flash-disk with capacity 1 Gbyte. The control of the control & processing unit is simplified to the utmost and is performed with the help of humidity resistant keys located on the front panel.
The control & processing unit power is supplied from the external nickel-metal hydride accumulator. The unit is placed in the protection coffer during the field activities.
