GEOsix Low Power Digitizer/Recorder

Overview

GEObit introduces the GEOsix series high-resolution 6+1 analog seismic channels telemetry digitizer/recorder. The size of the instrument is only 168 x 106 x 68 mm. The power consumption is only 1.2 W for six channels. The available sampling rate is 100 to 500 SPS/6ch, 100 to 1000 SPS/3ch, and optional lower sampling intervals are supported. A built-in GPS receiver combined with an ultra-accurate DPLL unit, providing time drift 10e-9 sec, ensures timing stability even without a GPS signal. NTP timing is also available. The unit is very flexible and accepts several types of analog front-end units, so any type of seismic sensor can be connected. Additionally, it provides eight extra-low resolution and rate analog inputs for seismometer mass position monitoring or any other environmental parameter monitoring.

+ Additional Details

Eight TTL command outputs are supported for seismometer control or for any other external device control. Typically the digitizer supports a differential variable gain preamplifier. Our force-balance sensor front end is also supported, providing a wide-band response (10 sec – 98 Hz) and high sensitivity 1500 V/m/s by connecting a C100 sensor. Acquisition parameters and operation modes can be set from the user–friendly web interface.

The unit operates in continuous mode, triggered mode, or both, and data are streamed through different data ports. Local data storage is selectable, as well as log file information. The unit supports advanced functionality implemented from a combination of trusted open-source software components. Because of its open-source architecture, it can run any custom application, thus providing a next-day solution to the user. The hardware is based on an embedded ARM9 400 MHz ARM Linux board. The data is stored in a mini-SEED format, on the microSD card, or on a removable USB stick. The instrument supports a 10/100 Ethernet port and a debug port. FTP, SFTP, and SSH are also available. The state of health is transmitted over UDP packets upon request.
