WARNING
Klein Marine Systems, Inc. recommends all troubleshooting be
done by a trained technician. Some circuits in the Sonar
Transceiver and Processing Unit have voltages as high as 240 volts,
and some circuits in the sonar towfish have 1500 volts. You should
familiarize yourself with the location of these voltages before you
attempt any troubleshooting. Failure to observe these warnings
could result in injuries to personnel.
CAUTION
Serious damage to the sonar electronics may occur if the sonar
towfish is operated out of the water for periods longer than 15
minutes. Let the sonar cool 15 minutes or longer between
operations. Protect the sonar towfish from direct exposure to the
sun prior to and during operation in high temperature climates.
CAUTION
The depth rating on the transducers for the Series 5000 V2 Sonar
System is 500 meters (1640 feet). Operations at depths greater than
500 meters may damage the transducers. For a Series 5000 V2
Sonar System with bathymetry option, the depth rating is
200 meters (656 feet). Operations at depths greater than 200 meters
may damage the transducers.

Sonar System Warranty
What Is Covered
LIMITED WARRANTY Subject to the conditions set forth below, equipment
sold by Seller is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship, and
Seller will repair or exchange any parts proven to be malfunctioning under normal
use for one year (12 months) from the date of Delivery as follows:
a) SONAR and other associated manufactured products, with the following
exceptions:
b) All third party accessories, winches, magnetometers, Sonar Laptops or PCs, and
peripherals/accessories and third party software packages related to the Sonar
Product Line are limited to the warranty provided by original manufacturer.
c) This warranty does not apply to tow cables. If applicable, the manufacturer’s
warranty will be forwarded with the equipment.
EQUIPMENT NOT MANUFACTURED BY SELLER Carries only its
vendor’s warranty, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
SERVICE WORK BY SELLER Warrants that ALL service work performed by
Seller’s technical and engineering employees will be performed in a good and
workmanlike manner, but its liability under this warranty is limited to the
obligation to remedy at Seller’s expense any such service work not performed
satisfactorily, upon receipt of written notice within ninety (90) days of the date of
performance of the work.
For authorized onsite service (excluding Side Scan Sonar category referenced as a.
SONAR) in which Seller has to travel to the installed equipment, travel costs (auto
mileage and tolls) up to 100 round trip highway miles and travel time of 2 hours,
will be allowed by Seller. The Overtime premium labor portion of service of
normal working hours is not covered by this Warranty. On-site warranty service is
capped at (4) hours per failure. Travel costs other than auto mileage, tolls and two
(2) hours travel time are specifically excluded on all products and services.
Travel costs which are excluded from coverage of this warranty include, but are
not limited to: taxi, launch fees, aircraft rental, airfare, subsistence, customs,
shipping, communication charges, etc.
During the warranty period, Seller will repair or, at its option, replace any
equipment that proves to be defective. Such repair or replacement is Buyer’s
exclusive right and remedy, and our only obligation, with respect to any defective
equipment.

e) Warranty does not cover equipment that has been repaired or modified other than
by Seller, or equipment that has been subjected to misuse or to negligent or
accidental mishandling.
f) Except where Seller has performed the installation of specific equipment, Seller
assumes no responsibility for damage incurred during installation of equipment or
by damage caused by no fault of the Seller.
g) This warranty does not cover routine system checkouts or alignment/calibration,
unless required by replacement of part(s) in the area being aligned.

CHAPTER 1: OVERVIEW
The Series 5000 V2 Sonar System is a very high resolution, multibeam long range
sonar system that is ideally suited for surface mine counter measure applications
and hydrographic, geophysical, pipeline, and offshore surveys. The two primary
drawbacks of conventional side-looking sonars, along-track resolution and towing
speed limitation, have been addressed by simultaneously forming multiple
dynamically focused beams per side, per ping. This allows greater towing speeds
without the usual loss of bottom coverage while maintaining high resolution. The
system employs operator selectable chirp and continuous wave (CW) technologies
which, when coupled with KMS proprietary display algorithms, provides
extraordinary sea floor images. In addition, rugged construction, low weight and
simple setup enables operation from large or small vessels.
1.1 Main Features
The Series 5000 V2 Sonar System provides the following main features:
• High speed, high resolution, multibeam side scan sonar.
• 14-bit digital multiplexer for transmission of sonar and control
data over a single coaxial cable.
• PC based operation using SonarPro and the Windows operating
system.
• Operation at 455 kHz for ranges up to 150 meters.
• Flexible and expandable system configurations.
• Chirp and CW operating modes.
• 500-meter operating depth (200-meter with bathymetry option).
• Operation with up to 800 meters of coaxial 0.680-inch diameter
armored tow cable.
• Heading, pitch, roll and pressure sensors.
• Optional interfaces for a responder, acoustic positioning system
yaw rate sensor, and altimeter.
• Small, lightweight and simple to operate and maintain.

1.2 System Components
The main components of the Series 5000 V2 Sonar System are the towfish and the
topside system. The towfish is the underwater component and is towed with an
armored coaxial tow cable up to 800 meters in length. The topside system provides
the power source for the towfish and receives, stores and processes data acquired
by the towfish. The towfish connects to the topside system using an optionally
supplied winch with slip rings and an armored coaxial tow cable. A terminated,
light weight deck cable is optionally supplied for connecting to the winch or for
connecting directly to the towfish for testing. The topside system is composed of
two separate main components:
• Transceiver and Processing Unit (TPU)
• SonarPro Workstation
In addition, a K-Wing I or K-Wing II Depressor can be installed on the towfish
which enables a greater towing depth with less cable deployed.
1.2.1 Towfish
The towfish, which is shown in Figure 1-1, consists of a negatively buoyant
stainless steel towfish housing with attached port and starboard sonar transducer
arrays, an altimeter, a nose cone, and a tail cone with stabilizing fins. Inside the
towfish housing is a pressure housing containing the sonar electronics, a downlink
demultiplexer for control signals, an uplink multiplexer for sonar and sensor data,
a transmitter board for transmit pulses, receiver boards for receiving signals, and
the compass, pitch/roll and pressure sensors. The downlink control signals and the
uplink sonar and sensor data are multiplexed onto a single conductor coaxial tow
cable.An electro-mechanical termination is provided on the towfish end of the tow
cable, where a shackle provides a strong, reliable mechanical termination to the
towfish tow bracket, and an underwater connector connects to a jumper cable on
the towfish. Four carrying handles, two forward and two aft, are included for
lifting and transporting the towfish. The installed safety cable minimizes the
chances of losing the towfish should it collide with an obstruction.
1.2.2 TPU
The TPU is housed in a 19-inch rack mountable 2U chassis and connects to the
towfish directly using an optional coaxial tow cable, or to an optionally supplied
winch using an optionally supplied deck cable, where the winch connects to the
towfish using a tow cable. The deck cable can also be used to connect the TPU
directly to the towfish for testing. The TPU receives and demultiplexes the sonar
and sensor data from the towfish and transfers the data to the SonarPro
Workstation over an Ethernet connection. The TPU provides power and downlink
