ABSTRACT:
A seismic recording system comprises a multichannel recorder connected to a cable formed from a plurality of signal conductors. Each of the signal conductors is connected to a different channel of the recorder. The cable has a plurality of takeouts located at spaced distances along its length. Each of the takeouts is connected to a different signal conductor of the cable. The system further includes a switch operably connected to one of the takeouts for selectively interconnecting the takeout and any one or more of several seismic detector connections upon receipt of a remotely generated signal. The system also includes a number of detector conduits, each of which has one end operably connected to a different one of the seismic detector connections of the switch. Each detector conduit has at least one geophone located along its length and operably connected thereto. A control is provided for transmitting a signal to a switch. The switch interconnects a selected group or groups of geophones with the recorder.
