An Integrated System

     The Boom Box 3 system is a complete integrated solution for seismic exploration. In Autonomous mode, the SourceLink software allows for all of the daily pre-planned shots to be uploaded to the Boom Box 3 Units. The Boom Box 3 will then only fire the allowed shots; this prevents the shooter from firing shots that are not part of the active patch. The navigation option and near flag detection of the notepad or cellphone software allows the shooter to easily find the shot hole and select the correct source flag.
     At the end of the day, all of the shot information from all the shooters can be uploaded to the SourceLink software for complete production reports and analysis. SourceLink also generates the shot time and location files that are required to process the seismic data on the new generation of seismic recording systems. The list of supported recording systems includes the I-Seis Sigma, Fairfield Nodes, Geospace GSR and Sercel Unite.

Legacy Mode
• Compatible with Standard Radios
• Compatible with Standard Timing
• Compatible with Standard Crews

     The Boom Box 3 can also be used in Legacy Mode with conventional VHF radios. In this mode, the Boom Box 3 is compatible with the previous generation of blasters like the Boom Box Unit. The central recording system controls all the shooters via VHF radio link. Start Messages, Ready Messages, and Shot Quality Control (PFS) messages are all sent via the VHF radio link. The up hole data, GPS position, and accurate GPS shot times are acquired “real time” on the central computer. The new Boom Box 3 blasters can be used on the same crew with the older Boom Box Blasters without any compatibility issues.
     The Boom Box 3 has many advancements over the previous generation of blasters. Three Channel 32 Bit up hole recording, automatic zero time, GPS synchronized shots, 8GB of nonvolatile memory and Wi-Fi HTML support are just a few of the new features.
