The Monitor is Teledyne RD Instruments most popular direct-reading Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP). The unit is typically bottom frame-mounted and hard-wired to shore to provide real-time monitoring of coastal currents. The Monitor's high data accuracy and reliability make it a favorite for deployments in highvolume traffic areas such as ports and harbors, where the data is often integrated into a Vessel Traffic Monitoring System. In fact, the Monitor has been selected for most major port programs undertaken in the United States. urn:teledyne_rdi:workhorse_1200 RDI_Workhorse_1200 oceanography waves currents acoustic Doppler profiler Long Name Teledyne RDI Workhorse Monitor 1200 Short Name RDI Workhorse Manufacturer Teledyne RDInstruments Model Number Workhorse 1200 Intended Application Ocean Waves Intended Application Ocean Currents Sensor Type Acoustic Doppler Sensor Type profiler 1228800 307200 20 5 1600 2 3 .1 .1 -5 +5 Teledyne RD Instruments +1-858-842-2600 14020 Stowe Drive Poway CA 92064 USA rdisales@teledyne.com Darryl Symonds Teledyne RD Instruments +1-858-842-2644 dsymonds@teledyne.com http://rdinstruments.com/__documents/Brochures/monitor_datasheet_lr.pdf Datasheet for the workhorse http://www.rdinstruments.com/support/documentation Collection of information regarding Teldyne RDI's ADCP profilers http://www.rdinstruments.com/monitor.html Photos of the workhorse Sea Water Pressure Sea Water Temperature Volumetric Backscatter doppler backscatter Particle Motion Depth Operation Rating 200 500 1000 6000 Sampling Frequency of Workhorse 1 5 2 Reporting Frequency of Workhorse 2 Number of Depth cells 1 128 Cell size .05 4 Number of pings per ensemble 1 16384 30 800 0 65535 ping Interval 0 3599.99 ping Interval 0 86399.99 RS232 RS422 1200 115200 Physical Properties Properties are dependent on depth hardware option; values provided by mode listing for each depth rating 200 7.0 3.0 228.0 201.5 plastic plastic plastic 200 Physical Properties Properties are dependent on depth hardware option; values provided by mode listing for each depth rating 500 9.8 3.5 228.0 201.5 plastic 6061 Aluminum plastic 500 Physical Properties Properties are dependent on depth hardware option; values provided by mode listing for each depth rating 1000 12.7 5.5 225.0 237.5 6061 Aluminum 6061 Aluminum 6061 Aluminum 1000 Physical Properties Properties are dependent on depth hardware option; values provided by mode listing for each depth rating 6000 15.5 5.6 225.0 228.6 7075 Aluminum 7075 Aluminum 7075 Aluminum 6000 Origin is at the intersection of the symmetric axis of the cylinder and the rear of the sensor X is perdendicular to the symmetric axis and intersects the indicator on the casing Y = Z cross X Z is along the symmetric axis of the sensor in the "up" direction urn:teledyne_rdi:workhorse_1200:transducer RDI ADCP Doppler Transducer urn:teledyne_rdi:workhorse_1200:pressureSensor RDI ADCP Pressure Sensor urn:teledyne_rdi:workhorse_1200:temperatureSensor RDI ADCP Temperature Sensor -5 45 -0.4 0.4 .01 urn:teledyne_rdi:workhorse_1200:tiltSensor RDI ADCP Tilt Sensor An upgrade option of +/-40 degrees is possible -20 20 -1 1 0.1 -20 20 -1 1 0.1 urn:teledyne_rdi:workhorse_1200:compass RDI ADCP Flux Gate Compass Accuracy assumes field calibration is performed 0 360 -2 2 0.1
