cPAP Portable transceiver units
The cPAP Portable transceiver unit is designed to fully operate
subsea transponders from a vessel. The cPAP Portable
transceiver is used together with a dunking transducer.
•The cPAP Portable transceiver is compatible with both
Cymbal and acoustic protocol for positioning and data link
and HPR 400 channels and telemetry.
•Acoustic link for command and data transfer.
•SSBL Range measurement positioning.
•LBL Positioning (optional).
•The cPAP Portable transceiver use full APOS menu.
The cPAP Portable transceiver unit is also used for on-deck
acoustic testing and configuration of the cNODE and
MPT/SPT/MST transponders.
The cPAP Portable transceiver unit is a touch screen/trackball
operated transceiver set in a splash proof portable case with a
carrying handle and shoulder strap. It has an internal
rechargeable battery.
