Q330S
VERY LOW-POWER HIGH-RESOLUTION
The Q330S is an advanced 3 or 6 channel broad-band, high
resolution ultra-low-power seismic system incorporating
Quanterra’s proven IP networking technology and super
rugged USB ash recording. The Q330 uses Quanterra’s
exclusive patented (US Patent 4866442, Japan Patent
2787445, others pending) delta-sigma 24-bit A/D with DSP,
and includes 32Mb RAM, GPS receiver, USB recording,
power management, sensor command/control, and an
advanced telemetry application for reliable data delivery.
Streamlined Remote Administration
The Q330S is designed for simple network maintenance and
administration, before, during, and after deployment. Internet
security is built-in. Proven UDP and TCP communications
modes are standard.
Telemetry…and Local USB Recordiing
The Q330S supports real-time data telemetry to multiple
central sites and simultaneous local recording on rugged USB
ash media. The peerless performance of the Quanterra Q330
in the IRIS/USArray program has established an
unchallenged reputation for delivery of high quality data.
Rugged USB Media - MSEED
FDSN-standard MSEED recorded on dual USB media. The
media are housed in a rugged watertight compartment.
SPECIFICATIONS
INTEGRATED SEISMIC SYSTEM
FEATURES
Low! Power
Incorporating the latest low-power technology, the Q330S
achieves integrated capability with an average power
requirement of <0.75W, including recorder & GPS!
Internet-Ready Industry Standards
The ultra-reliable Q330S telemetry protocols have been
proven in thousands of world-wide installations, and enable
the use of o -the-shelf IP equipment and service providors.
Dual Ethernet interfaces 10BaseT and 100BaseT are built-in.
Data recorded on local media may be accessed using simple
standard protocols including HTTP, FTP, and SSH.
Comprehensive Sensor Control
The Q330S is a seismological instrument, not a digitizer
alone. Sensor control interface, including advanced sensor
calibration, and sensor identi cation-tag support is built in.
