  • Page 11: Principle Of Operation

    RAIS 056357/B In dual-rudder systems, RACs for the port and starboard rudder are used in a paired configuration. Each unit reads the feedback signal and drives the analogue outputs for its own side. Through a crosslink, it also reads the other unit’s digital output and produces a $--RSA sentence including port and starboard rudder angles according to IEC 61162 (NMEA 0183).

  • Page 31 RAIS 056357/B Chapter 6: System Configuration DANGER Life danger through electrical shock Certain alarm devices may operate with hazardous voltages, switched by the alarm relay output contacts. During configuration, the Rudder Angle Calibrator must be operated with the housing open. Make sure that any external device or power supply connected to the alarm relay outputs is de-energized and safe- guarded against accidental switching-on.

  • Page 32: Initial System Configuration

    056357/B RAIS 6.1 Initial system configuration Configuring the RAC with SUSI 1. If the RAC is currently powered up, switch off the power first. 2. Open the RAC housing and locate the USB service port receptacle, J3, on the PCB. Make sure that the port is freely accessible for plug- ging and unplugging the USB cable.
  • Page 33 RAIS 056357/B 8. Plug in the USB cable at the PC and at the RAC’s service port. The “Online” button should now become clickable (not greyed-out), indicating that SUSI has found a device to connect to: The LED icon next to the button will remain grey, as no connection has been made yet.

  • Page 44: Input Calibration Table

    056357/B RAIS Input Calibration Table To compensate for possible misalignment of the feedback unit and non- linearity of the feedback potentiometer, the RAC permanently applies correction to the input value, according to a stored calibration table. The input calibration table contains a number of calibration points, each of which maps a feedback input value to the corresponding true rudder angle, as read from the rudder stock scale.

  • Page 45: General Remarks On Calibration

    RAIS 056357/B General Remarks on Calibration With regard to the RAC in- and output calibration using SUSI, observe the following points: • Port rudder angles are displayed as negative numbers in SUSI. Accordingly, port angles must also be entered as negative numbers, prefixed with a minus sign.

  • Page 46: Initial Calibration

    At least three input and three output calibration points must be set to make the outputs become functional. Sperry Marine recommends to carry out an initial calibration directly after the basic configuration parameters have been set. During this initial calibration, input calibration points are to be set at the hardover and midships rudder positions.
  • Page 47 RAIS 056357/B To carry out the initial calibration: 1. If not already connected, connect to the RAC with SUSI now, as described in “Configuring the RAC with SUSI”, steps 1 through 12, starting on page 6-2. 2. Click on the “Calibration” tab of the Rudder Angle Calibrator applica- tion to enter the calibration page.
  • Page 48 056357/B RAIS 8. Read the exact rudder angle from the rudder stock scale and enter it in the input calibration rudder angle control: enter exact angle read from rudder stock scale 9. Click to set a new calibration point. 10. Put the rudder to the hardover starboard position. 11.
  • Page 49 RAIS 056357/B 14. At least three output calibration points must be set now before the calibration page can be quit and the calibration settings are written to the RAC. Note If no RAIs are connected to the RAC at this point in time, zero output val- ues may be entered as a temporary measure, to be able to finish the ini- tial calibration and transfer the calibration settings to the RAC.
  • Page 50 056357/B RAIS enter zero adjust output for exact (rudder midships) rudder midships indication In case no RAIs are connected to the RAC at this point in time, leave all output settings at the default value of 2048. 20. Click to set a new calibration point. 21.
  • Page 51 RAIS 056357/B Note In case dummy signals or zero values have been supplied during the in- or output calibration, the RAC may not be taken into operation yet. The configuration of the unit is not complete before the input has been calibrated using the actual input signal from the feedback potentiometer and the outputs have been calibrated for the individual RAIs installed.

  • Page 52: Adding, Editing And Deleting Calibration Points

    056357/B RAIS Adding, Editing and Deleting Calibration Points After the initial calibration procedures, a performance check of the RAI system may reveal that the required calibration accuracy is not yet attained over the entire rudder angle range. This may happen especially if the feedback lever linkage is poorly aligned or the feedback unit’s shaft runs not exactly parallel to the rud- der stock.
  • Page 53 RAIS 056357/B To edit in- or output calibration points: 1. If not already connected, connect to the RAC with SUSI and enter the RAC application’s calibration page. 2. With the spin control, scroll down the list of existing calibration points to the point you wish to edit. 3.

  • Page 54: Input Calibration Using Dummy Values

    056357/B RAIS Input Calibration using Dummy Values In some installations, it may be required to carry out the output calibra- tion before the input calibration. E. g., if the RAI system is installed and wired up, but the rudder cannot be actuated because the steering gear is not operational.
