The Type 8070 WSM features
a high-power directional transducer with an acoustic output
comparable to Sonardyne's most powerful Compatt transponders.
The Type 8071 WSM features an omni-directional transducer.
A serial data link, allows
the WSM to be used with all of the popular acoustic navigation
systems. In addition, WSMs now support all Sonardyne tone
and wideband signals and all HPR 300 and HiPAP® channels.
A new feature of the WSM
is an On/Off switch for improved reliability.
Both types of WSM have the option of a depth sensor for
improved positioning accuracy.
