The method used by the 350 System to locate and survey the target cable is insensi-
tive to the effects of:
❐ Variations in the magnitude of tone current
❐ Terrestrial magnetism
❐ Burial condition of the target cable
❐ The presence of non-ferrous metallic objects in the search area.
1.3 QUICK START FOR SDC USERS
This manual describes the operation of a 350 Cable Survey System used with the lat-
est Surface Display Computer. This software is based on Windows 2000, and a new
control program called Deepview for Windows. This new SDC is compatible only with
a 440 Pipe and Cable survey system when used in a Dualtrack configuration. For
users who have used the older generation of DOS software, the software will be sim-
ple to operate, however there are the following important differences:
❐ Windows user interface. The setting up of survey parameters, external logging
etc. is now performed via menus and dialogs.
❐ New forward search screen.
❐ Highly improved video overlay.
❐ Internal logging improved.
❐ Dualtrack configuration requires a 350 and 440 unit; the 340 is no longer sup-
ported.
The 350 SEP has not changed: the communications protocols, pinouts and ratings
are exactly the same. For this reason, both the old and new SDCs can be used with a
standalone 350.
