BATS AND PORTABLE BATS INSTALLATION
2-35
2.3.2 PORTABLE BATS - ETHERNET CABLE WIRING
Connect the Ethernet Cable (4450BA0133) to the Transceiver’s “ETHERNET & 1PPS” underwater
connector. See Figure 2-17. At the other end connect the “BATS LINK” cable (RJ45 Jack) to the PC.
This TCP/IP communication link configures the Transceiver (target & system parameters) using the
BATS Windows® Configuration management software, “Trackman”. The Transceiver also sends
target data to the PC for further processing and display.
2.3.3 PORTABLE BATS - HYDROPHONE CABLE
Connect the Hydrophone Deck Cable Model 4113C (Figure 2-6) from the Hydrophone to the Trans-
ceiver Model 4461A.
The Deck Cable mates to the Transceiver by lining up the pins in both connectors and pushing to-
gether. The mated connection is then held together with the locking sleeves. The following are
guidelines from the manufacturer.
 Align indexes on connectors and mate with minimum twisting and flexing
 Care must be taken not to damage contacts in unmated connectors
 Contact surfaces must be dry prior to mating.
 Lubricate mating surfaces with 3M Silicone Spray or equivalent. DO NOT GREASE. Connect-
ors must be lubricated on a regular basis.
 Avoid contact with solvents.
 Grip main body of connector during mating or unmating. Do not pull on the cable to discon-
nect.
 Avoid sharp bends at cable entry to connector.
 Elastomers can be seriously degraded if exposed to direct sunlight or high ozone levels for
extended periods of time.
NOTE: Do NOT allow Silicone Spray to come in contact with the Hydrophones potting.
