The standard AX2000 is a microprocessor controlled instrument consisting of an electronic module together with a solenoid type sensor (towfish), 40M (130ft) of cable and a Light weight storage drum. Lengths of cable up to 60M (200 ft) can be supplied with the standard solenoid or 150M (500ft) with the optional high powered version. Both of the sensors are contained in durable housings. For parts of the world where the earth's magnetic field has a reduced angle of inclination the Aquascan toroid sensor is recommended.

The AX2000 functions as a graphical display magnetometer with continuous data recording by means of internal memory storage, digital printer or direct PC interface(baud rates are selectable). Positional information derived from an accurate navigation source can also be correlated with the magnetometer readings to provide a comprehensive survey log.

The system is intended to be offered as a standard or professional version with optional features such as monitoring towfish depth, increased datalogging facilities and on screen positon plotting.
