The cNODE Maxi design is very modular and covers a large range of applications with its variety of different transducers, internal and external sensors, housing materials and other add-on functions.

New configurations and software can easily be downloaded from the Transponder Test and Configuration unit (TTC30) without opening the transponder.
The floating collar and release design make the launch/recovery operation safe and easy.

Note that these units are supplied with Lithium battery packs and as such consideration should be given to dangerous goods shipping if the project requires air freight to ship the units.

Features:

• Operates together with HiPAP®, µPAP and cPAP®
  transceivers
• Compatible with Cymbal®â€¯acoustic protocol for
  positioning and data link
• SSBL positioning
• LBL positioning
• Range measurement between transponders (typical, 1 σ
  standard deviation):
  — Range accuracy: 0.02 m
  — Repeatability: 0.01 m
• Acoustic data link for command and data transfer
• Internal tilt sensor ± 90°; accuracy ± 2°
• External connector for transponder configuration and software update via serial line (TTC30)
• Modular design such that the transducer, transponder
  electronics, battery pack and optional add-ons can be
  replaced individually
