摘要:
A two-conductor bidirectional digital telemetry interface between a seismic sensor acquisition/conversion module and a seismic data collection module. The data collection module is configured as a master electronics device and the sensor acquisition/conversion module is configured as a slave electronics device in the telemetry system. The master device provides power to the slave device over the two conductors. The master device transmits portions of commands to the slave device at a first time and the slave device transmits portions of a digital seismic data packet to the master at a different second time in a fixed-duration frame. The frames are transmitted at regular intervals. The outbound commands and inbound data are encoded by block codes. A phase-locked loop in the slave is locked to a master clock in the master by deriving a clock and a sync point from the block-coded commands it receives from the master. The block code representing each command bit minimizes dc drift and provides a level transition in the command that can be used to maintain synchronism between master and slave.

An apparatus for collecting geophysical information may include a geophysical information station disposed along a seismic communication cable. A bypass circuit responsive to a command signal is in communication with a switching circuit that is operable to route electrical power, commands, data or a combination to bypass the geophysical information station in response to the command signal. An exemplary method for bypassing a geophysical information station in a geophysical information collection system includes sending a command signal to a bypass circuit and activating one or more switching circuits using the bypass circuit to route electrical power, commands, data or a combination to bypass the geophysical information station in response to the command signal.

摘要:
An instrument for linearizing a non-linear analog output produced from a sensor such as a thermocouple to obtain a true measurement of the parameter or engineering units of interests. The full range of the non-linear analog output is divided into segments and within each segment the second slope or the rate of change of the first slope of the analog output is predetermined and stored. In carrying out measurements, the magnitude of the analog output sensed is converted to constant frequency pulses. When measurements are carried out, within a given segment the corresponding second slope data is employed to modify the frequency of the constant frequency pulses to obtain output pulses for accumulation. These output pulses have a frequency which at any given moment is representative of the first slope of the analog output and which changes at a rate representative of the rate of change of the first slope of the analog output. The resulting output pulses thus are accumulated at a non-linear rate to obtain an output that will accurately follow the non-linear curve of the sensor and which will result in a true measurement of the engineering units of interest.
