FORCE TWO Vibrator Electronics
Cable Free Seismic For Today
Seismic Source Company introduces Sigma™ - cable-free, continuous seismic acquisition solutions using exclusive mesh radio technology. Based on a license free spread spectrum radio network which provides continuous status reports from all channels, the Sigma™ three channel platforms are scalable/expandable to over 50,000 channels, delivering reliable and quality performance.
  • High resolution 24 bit recording
  • User-friendly Software for Deployment and Recording of data:
    • Integrated Source Control
    • GPS mapping
    • Seismograph control
    • Standard SPS pre-plot files and SEG-Y output files
  • Rugged 3 channel unit
  • Scalable to 32 Gbytes of storage per unit
  • Bi-color LED status
  • Built-in-Test System/Oscillator for:
    • System Tests
    • Geophone Tests
  • Accepts standard Analog Sensors:
    • Geophones
    • Hydrophones
  • Supports Advanced Seismic Techniques:
    • Slip Sweep
    • Stakeless Surveys
    • Multiple Sources:
      • Dynamite
      • Vibroseis
      • Weight Drop (AWD's)
      • Air Gun
  • Power Saving Modes:
    • Extended Battery Life
    • Maximum memory storage
  • Real-Time Data Collection Option

SAU – Sigma™ Acquisition Unit:
  • Ruggedized 3 channel Unit
  • GPS PPS signal - used to synchronize accurate internal clock
  • Source Trigger Accuracy to one microsecond
  • Mesh Radio Network (MRN) used during deployment to assign channel number and during recording to continuously check status of unit
  • Geophone and instrument test can be performed via Mesh Radio Network (MRN)
  • Status message protocols transmitted via Mesh Radio Network (MRN) includes:
    • Recording Status
    • Battery Status
    • Memory Test
    • GPS status
  • Mesh Radio Network (MRN) used to wakeup and stop recording, optimizing memory and battery life
  • SAU unit can be operated without MRN for Autonomous, Wireless Radio Free Operation
  • Mesh Radio Network (MRN) can be removed from unit for transportation, storage, and handling
  • Low power SAU unit uses external 12 Volt battery
  • SAU - System Test Include:
    • Gain Accuracy
    • Pulse Test
    • Geophone Pulse Test
    • Noise Level Test
    • Dynamic Range Test
    • Geophone Resistance, Frequency and Damping Test
    • Crossfeed
    • THD
  • 16 Gbytes Compact Flash Card - standard (32 Gbyte Optional)
  • Large internal storage for continuous monitoring (16 Gigabyte will store over 30 days of continuous data - 3 channels at 2 msec)
  • High Speed Download of internal data (100 MBits/sec)
  • Noise floor less than 0.2 microvolts RMS at 2 msec sampling
  • External Status Lights display status of battery voltage, GPS and SAU Recorder
  • Optional VHF radio system for internal clock synchronization

Sigma™ Integrated Source and Recording Software:
  • True Stakeless Survey - Automated Operation
  • Final GPS Positions for all Source Positions
  • Complete Control of Sources and SAU Units
  • Graphical view of current job status
  • Daily production reports
