WARNINGS

HIGH VOLTAGE

Radar equipment requires the use of high voltage, which can cause injury, or loss of life. Danger exists only when the units are opened exposing internal circuits, as when servicing the equipment. The Manufacturer Radar has been carefully designed to protect personnel from possible injury from high voltages. Nevertheless, it is recommended that the Line Switch always be opened as an added protection when inspecting or servicing the equipment. Although every effort has been made to eliminate danger to personnel, no responsibility is accepted for any injury or loss of life suffered in connection with this equipment.

X-RAY RADIATION

X-RAY radiation may be generated by Transceiver units and care must be taken to avoid possible harmful effects when they are opened for maintenance. When power is on, care should be taken not to approach closer than 1 ft. from

the unit unless front cover is in place.

RADIO-FREQUENCY RADIATION

Harmful effects (particularly to the eyes) may be caused by exposure of any part of the human body to radio-frequency mean power densities in excess of 100 mW/cm2. This power density is exceeded at a distance of 1 ft. or less, from the 12 ft. X-Band aerial (when stationary). The system is however designed to disable radiation when the antenna is not rotating. The pedestals have also been predisposed for the installation of an external safety switch, which can be mounted on, or near the platform. This switch removes power from the Pedestal eliminating the possibility of accidental operation during servicing and also causes disabling of transmission. Whenever it is necessary to disconnect the waveguide system from a radar transmitter for maintenance purpose, the transmitter output should, when practicable, be terminated in a matched load. If this is not possible, care should be taken to avoid standing in front of an open-ended waveguide from which power is being radiated. NEVER look down a waveguide from which power is being radiated.

SAFETY SWITCH

The Unit is provided of a safety switch, which disable the Antenna movement during maintenance operations.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Purpose

The safety precautions described in this paragraph are applicable to Selux St. Depending upon the material to be highlighted, the following attention letter headings are used in the technical manual content.

WARNING

THIS IS OPERATING OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE, PRACTICE, CONDITION AND STATEMENT WHICH. IF NOT STRICTLY FOLLOWED, COULD RESULT IN INJURY TO OR DEATH OF PERSONNEL

WARNING

THIS IS OPERATING OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE, PRACTICE, CONDITION AND STATEMENT WHICH. IF NOT STRICTLY OBSERVED, COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO, OR DESTRUCTION OF, UNIT OR LOSS OF EMISSION EFFECTIVENESS.

NOTE

An essential operating or maintenance procedure, condition or statement which must be highlighted

Whenever a precaution, relating specifically to a part of the technical manual is needed, the information is given in the relevant part of the manual. Warnings and Cautions precede applicable text.

Safety Operations

During normal operation (front cover closed), the unit can be quickly disconnected from the main power line, setting to OFF the relevant circuit breaker located on the electric switchboard.

During maintenance (front cover opened) it is possible to turn-on the unit by setting to SERVICE MODE the SW2 switch, mounted on the RTM Supply Assy. This switch is connected in parallel with the relay, controlled by the POWER ON command, and during normal operation must be set to NORMAL. During maintenance, in order to prevent RTM occasional turning-on it is better to disconnect and insulate, momentarily, PWON terminal from the relevant terminal board.

NOTE

Main power line is always present on terminal board and on fuses

Safety Summary

The following are general safety precautions that are not related to any specific procedure and therefore do not appear elsewhere in this technical manual. These are recommended precautions that personnel must understand and apply during most phases of operation and maintenance.

KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUIT Operating personnel must at all times observe all safety regulations. Do not replace components or make adjustments inside the unit with the high voltage supply turned ON. Under certain conditions, dangerous potentials may exist when the power breaker is in the OFF position, also due to charges retained by capacitors. To avoid casualties, always remove power and discharge to ground a circuit before touching it.

DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE Under no circumstances should any person initiate servicing or adjusting the unit except in the presence of someone capable of helping help.

RESUSCITATION Personnel working with or near high voltage should be familiar with modern methods of resuscitation. Such information may be obtained from the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.1 Rev. E

CHAPTER 1

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.1 Guidelines for the installation of

shipborne radar equipment

Information provided by radar is of vital importance for navigators and the safe navigation of ships.

Special care should be taken to ensure the correct installation of the radar, in order to improve the performance of the radar system.

Correct location of the radar antenna is an important factor of the performance of the radar System. Interference, either by reflecting constructions or other transmitters, may heavily reduce the radar performance by creating blind sectors, clutter on the radar display or generation of false echoes.

1.2 Interference

Due care should be taken with regard to the location of radar antennas relative to other antennas which may cause interference to either equipment. The location of the antenna should comply with the following:

The radar antenna should be installed safely away from interfering high-power energy sources and other transmitting and receiving radio antennas.

The lower edge of a radar antenna should be a minimum of 500 mm above any safety rail.

Radar antennas in dose proximity should have a minimum vertical elevation separation angle of 20° and a minimum vertical separation of 1 m where possible.

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.2 Rev. E

1.2.1 Location relative to masts, funnels and

other constructions

Due care should be taken with regard to the location of radar antennas relative to masts, funnels and other constructions.

The location of the antenna should comply with the following: The antenna should generally be mounted clear of any structure that may cause signal reflections. Ensure that any support or other obstacles are clear of the rotation of the antenna (see specific antenna outline drawing for rotational radius). Install antenna and turning unit so that the installation complies with the compass safe distance for the equipment.

1.2.2 Blind sectors and range

To make full benefit from the radar, it is vitally important for the OOW that horizontal and vertical blind sectors for the radar antennae are minimized. The objective is to see the horizon freely through 360° as nearly as possible.

For all radar systems and where practical, a line of sight from the radar antenna to the bow of the ship should hit the surface of the sea in not more than 500 m or twice the ship length, depending which value is smaller, for all load and trim conditions.

The radar antenna should be located in an elevated position to permit maximum target visibility.

Waterline

Main Beam

13°

Ideal Radiation Plane

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.3 Rev. E

Blind sectors should be kept to a minimum, and should not occur in an area of the horizon from right ahead to 22.5° abaft the beam to either side.

Note: Any two blind sectors separated by 3° or less should be treated as one blind sector.

Individual blind sectors of more than 5°, or a total are of blind sectors of more than 20°, should not occur in the remaining are, excluding the are in the above subparagraph (e).

For radar installations with two radar systems, where possible, the antennas should be placed in such a way as to minimize the blind sectors.

All installations should facilitate protection of equipment, including cabling, from damage.

Safe service access should be provided using service platforms where necessary having a minimum size of 1 m 2 at a suitable height and with a safety rail of suitable height.

Consideration should be given to the compass safety distance as supplied by the manufacturer when positioning equipment units.

The design of the mounting platform for the antenna and antenna pedestal should take into account the vibration requirements of resolution A.694(17) and furthermore defined by IEC 60945. In addition to vibration, the design of the mounting platform should consider shock and whiplash due to seagoing conditions.

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.4 Rev. E

1.2.3 Interaction with sea and false echoes

Considerations of interaction with the sea imply that the radar antenna should be only as high as necessary to clear major objects, and as high to be consistent with other requirements regarding acceptable horizon and target detection range. The location of the antenna should minimize sea clutter returns and the-number of multi-path nulls.

1.2.4 Cables and grounding

The cables and the grounding should comply with the following:

Cable screens, especially coaxial cable screens, should be installed in accordance with manufacturer's documentation.

The cables should be kept as short as possible to minimize attenuation of the signal.

All cables between antenna and radar System units should be routed as directly as possible, consistent with consideration for other equipment, in order to reduce electromagnetic interference effects. Cables should not be installed dose to high-power lines, such as radar or radio-transmitter lines.

Crossing of cables should be done at right angles (90°) to minimize magnetic field coupling.

All outdoor installed connectors should be waterproof by design to protect against water penetration into the cables.

Cables and microwave transmission lines should not be exposed to sharp bends.

Cables and microwave transmission lines should be installed with sufficient physical separation, as defined in the manufacturer's documentation.

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.5 Rev. E

1.2.5 Radar controls controls and display

If the control panel is a separate unit, the functionality of the radar controls should be available for the mariner at all workstations where a radar display is available.

The orientation of the display unit should be such that the user is looking ahead. The lookout view should not be obscured and the ambient light should cause minimum degradation on the display screen in accordance with MSC/Circ.982.

WARNING

ONLY ELECTRONIC POSITIONING SYSTEMS (EPFS) APPROVED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE IMO IN RESOLUTION MSC.112(73) SHALL BE CONNECTED TO THE SELUXST RADAR CONSOLE.

WARNING

LONG TRANSMISSION LINES, COAXIAL CABLES FOR S-BAND AND WAVEGUIDE FOR X-BAND DOWN MAST TRANSCEIVER CAN AFFECT THE RADAR PERFORMANCE. THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN TESTED WITH 20M LENGTH FROM TRANSCEIVER TO THE ANTENNA PEDESTAL, CONSIDER THAT TRANSMITTED/RECEIVED POWER ARE HALVED FOR EVERY 10 MS ADDED (EX: +20M = -6DB SIGNAL/NOISE). CLEARLY THIS AFFECTS DETECTION FOR FAR TARGETS AND FOR SMALL/LOW REFLECTIVITY ONES LIKE SAIL SHIPS. HIGHEST MAST POSITION IS GOOD FOR LONG RANGE DETECTION BUT IT AFFECTS HEAVILY THE DETECTION IN SEA CLUTTER, FOR OPTIMAL DETECTION IN SEA CLUTTER SUGGESTED ANTENNA HEIGHT FROM SEA LEVEL IS AROUND 20M. USUALLY THE CONTRADICTORY SPECIFICATIONS ARE SOLVED WITH INSTALLATION OF MORE THAN ONE ANTENNA, FOR EXAMPLE ONE AT 30M FOR LONG RANGE DETECTION AND ONE AT 20 M FOR OPTIMAL DETECTION OF LOW INTENSITY ECHOES IN SEA CLUTTER. S-BAND TRANSCEIVER USE IS ALWAYS THE OPTIMAL CHOICE FOR REDUCING RAIN CLUTTER REFLECTIONS AND INCREASE LONG RANGE DETECTION LONGER ANTENNAS FOR X-BAND ARE LESS SUSCEPTIBLE TO RAIN AND SEA CLUTTER.

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

1.6 Rev. E

WARNING

ACCORDING THE IMO STANDARD A GROUND SPEED SENSOR IS REQUIRED TO BE CONNECTED TO THE SELUX ST CONSOLE. IT IS ALLOWED TO USE AN ELECTRONIC POSITION FIXING SYSTEM (EPFS) APPROVED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE IMO IN RESOLUTION MSC.112(73) OR AN ALTERNATIVE TWO DIMENSIONAL GROUND STABILISING SDME IN COMPLIANCE WITH IMO RESOLUTION MSC.96(72)

WARNING

THE RADAR UNIT IS PROVIDED WITH A SAFETY SWITCH, WHICH DISABLE THE ANTENNA MOVEMENT DURING MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS AND AVOIDS HIGH VOLTAGE DAMAGE. ALWAYS TURN THE SAFETY SWITCH OFF, WHENEVER ADVISED IN THIS MANUAL (FOR INSTANCE, BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE OR INSTALLATION PROCEDURE). IGNORING SAFETY SWITCH OPERATION MAY PRODUCE HAZARD OF ELECTROCUTION AS WELL AS OTHER SEVERE INJURES

1.5 Analogue Gyrocompass (Synchro or Stepper)

The gyro signals are connected to TB14 on the Alpha PCB. There are several possibilities of connections depending on the type and reference voltage of the gyro.

Refer to the drawing below for the relevant configuration for Synchro and Stepper.

Fig 1 For Selux (ALPHA PCB) connect to TB14.

Note: Connection with stepper gyro full wave rectified signal (SPERRY MK-37, MK-20)

1. Close the jumpers P10, P13, P15 on the Alpha PCB;

2. make the interconnection to TB4 on the Alpha PCB as follow:

INSTALLATION AND SETTING

3. Follow the configuration instructions described in Chapter 3

4. Check the phases status trough the LED on the Alpha PCB.

The three phases are given by the gyro with a 3 bit Gray code. The purpose of this code is to detect the increment of the value and its sign; its most important characteristic is that only one of the three bits at the time can change and in this application (normally is not a characteristic of the Gray code), the 3 bits cannot have all the same level. To give a quick look to the Gray code see the four green LED on the Alpha:

1. The first one next to red LED is D33 and it indicates the first phase (S1).

2. The second one is D34 and it is the second phase indicator (S2).

3. The third one is D35 and it indicates the third phase (S3).

4. The last one is D36 and it is to indicate the Reference.

Now that the LED are individuated move the gyro or anyway simulate a steering and the three LEDs (S1, S2 and S3) will start to change their state and will be easy to observe that they will be never all on or all off and only one of them at the time will change its state.

WARNING

THE GYRO INTERFACE SHOULD BE CONFIGURED CORRECTLY ACCORDING TO TYPE OF SENSOR CONNECTED, OTHERWISE LEVELS AND LED SIGNALS WILL BE LIGHTED WRONGLY ALSO WHEN THE SIGNALS ARE AVAILABLE.

1.6 Serial Gyro

A Standard or Fast NMEA Gyro can be connected on Alpha PCB TB9

Connect it according the guidelines defined in Chapter 2 Serial Interfaces.

1.7 Speed LOG

In case of analogue signal the speed log is connected to TB14 on the Alpha PCB. There are several connections depending on the type of log installed. Most of the single axis analogue speed logs are shorting-type (relays contact), in this case the signal shall be connected between PIT and GND on TB14.

In case of NMEA signal the speed log also can be connected to Alpha PCB input TB2.See the serial interface chapter for accepted sentences.

WARNING

THE HEADING SENSOR, A GYRO EQUIPMENT OR EQUIVALENT, SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN A RATE OF TURN UP TO 20°/S ACCORDING TO IMO RESOLUTION MSC.192(79) AND MSC.116(73) FOR THD DEVICES. IF THE INTERFACE IS ANALOGUE THE MINIMUM TURN RATE SHOULD BE 12°/S. FOR A DIGITAL INTERFACE THE HEADING REFRESH SHOULD BE MORE THAN 20HZ, UP TO 50HZ. IF THE GYRO UPDATE RATE IS UNDER THE PREVIOUS STATED VALUES THE TRACKING PERFORMANCE CAN BE SERIOUSLY DEGRADED WITH INCREASING ERRORS ON TARGET VECTOR DURING THE OWN SHIP CHANGE OF COURSE.

1.8 EPFS

The EPFS (Electronic Position Fixing System) signal is connected to TB3 on the Alpha PCB. In case of Selux-ST system communicating to an INS or ECDIS also the Output of this serial line sends some data and it shall be connected.

NOTE

Supported EPFS equipment must follow the IMO recommendation MSC.114(73)

1.9 AIS

The AIS signal is connected to TB8 on the Alpha PCB. It's possible to receive RS422 or RS232 standard signal only at 38400 bps. The sentences accepted are: AIALR, AIVDM and AIVDO.

NOTE

it is also possible to connect the output from the RADAR to the AIS device, to acknowledge the alarms coming from AIS from the RADAR interface. Normally the AIS equipments have only one input available, so that only one RADAR can be connected to it and it will be only one able to acknowledge the alarms. This output is on the same serial port TB8 with only sentence generated: AIACK

The same output, is the source for tracking data sentences TTD and TLB.

NOTE

Supported AIS equipment must follow the IMO recommendation A.917(22)
