Abstract: Apparatus for conducting geophysical surveys comprising a multiplicity of intelligent electrodes provided on a multi-conductor cable, for receiving a command signal in response to which predetermined electrodes are connected to selected conductors in the cable. Each intelligent electrode is identical in all respects, including its programming, resulting in simplified construction of the cable and easy replacement of the intelligent electrodes. Instead of assigning a unique address code to each switch in a series of take-outs on a multi-conductor cable, each electronic switch is programmed with the same address code. That is, each switch is programmed to be activated when it receives a code command that, for example, is prefaced with a particular address, e.g. the number 1. The second part of the code (y) instructs the switch as to which conductor in the multi-conductor cable is to be connected to the local electrode at the location of the switch.

Abstract: An emitter for a system of electromagnetic tomographic measurements, as well as a process and a generator (5) adapted to produce a variable frequency current supplying a solenoid (1), constituted of turns wound about a magnetic core (3). The solenoid (1) is constituted by several windings (4a, 4b, 4c) disposed side by side with each other on the core (3), and the emitter comprises switching means (6) adapted to connect in series or in parallel and/or to disconnect the different windings (4a, 4b, 4c) with and from each other, constituting the solenoid (1), so as to control the number of active turns of the solenoid (1).
