  • Page 30: Hydrophone Installation

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION INSTALLATION This section includes instructions for designing and implementing a 4610B hydrophone mounting assembly, making proper attachment of the deck cable and back panel interconnects. It also in- cludes suggested mounting arrangements for the Model 4211A (3" Hydrophone) and Model 4740A VRU/Amplifier Assembly.

  • Page 31: 4610B Suggested Hydrophone Mounting Assembly

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION 2.1.1 4610B SUGGESTED HYDROPHONE MOUNTING ASSEMBLY The main function of the mounting assembly is to support the hydrophone vertically in the water. Mount it at reasonable distance from the vessel's hull and below the level of the keel. The mount- ing should be rugged enough to withstand the expected forces during the planned operation, and easy to raise and lower.
  • Page 32 TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION FIGURE 2-1 Attach the pipe to the side of the vessel so that the pipe and hydrophone assembly can be easily removed and set on board, if required, to tie the vessel up alongside other vessels or at dockside.

  • Page 33: Attaching Mounting Bracket To Pipe

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION A cradle or stop should be used to ensure that the hydrophone returns to the same position each time it is deployed. 2.1.1.1 ATTACHING MOUNTING BRACKET TO PIPE The hydrophone mounting bracket typically attaches to the mounting pipe by drilling two 1/2-inch (13-mm) holes through the end of the pipe.

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION distance is a minimum of 1 meter. It is also important to keep the hydrophone below the level of the ship's keel for good 360 degree coverage. When designing the hydrophone mount/deployment system keep in mind that the shaft be keyed to allow a repeatable bearing orientation.

A mating connector (MS-3106A-20-29P) can be connected between an external key source (trigger source can range from TTL to +15V) and the TrackPoint Interface Module. See Figure 2-13.

  • Page 47: Sim - Trigger-Out

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION 2.2.6.2 SIM - TRIGGER-OUT The TRIGGER-out is a differential TTL-compatible pulse occurring at the time of interrogation for a transponder or a responder. This TRIGGER out pulse is present simultaneously with the leading edge of each interrogation pulse. The output can be configured as either differential or positive / negative single ended when used the COMMON line.

  • Page 48: Depth Input

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION 2.2.7.1 DEPTH INPUT The analog output voltage from a depth sensor (typically located on a vehicle being tracked) con- nects to the HDG/ VRU / GYRO DEPTH input connector (MS3102A-24-5P) located on the rear panel (See Figure 2-14). The TrackPoint converts this analog voltage (0 - 6 VDC maximum) to a target depth.

  • Page 49: Attitude Sensor

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION C A U T I O N Before wiring gyro confirm that the REFERENCE voltage sent from the gyro to the C/DM is within tolerance of the S/AC specified, e.g., an option 114 S/AC requires the reference voltage be less than 28.6 VAC.

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION same protocol. The RS232 Format NMEA ORE (NMEA 0183 type format string that is proprietary to ORE Offshore and includes pitch and roll data at end of string) is dif- ferent in that it outputs data in the same polarity as its incoming voltage. This allows pass-through of signals from remote VRU to integrated navigation system without modification of polarities.
  • Page 51 TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION NOTE: Almost all vessels have a centerline weld or plank that runs down the deck that can be used for alignment purposes. If your vessel has a seamless deck, you have to measure the vessel beam and determine the true centerline. Weight a line to suspend the acoustic tracking source vertically in the water.

  • Page 54: Hydrophone X And Y Offsets And Hydrophone Depth

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION 2.3.2 HYDROPHONE X AND Y OFFSETS AND HYDROPHONE DEPTH Hydrophone Offsets are used to reference the target position to the pitch / roll center of the vessel and also to correct for the hydrophones dynamic motion. Hydrophone motion is due to the pitching and rolling of the vessel when it is not on the pitch or roll center of the vessel.
  • Page 55 TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION The hydrophone is represented in the tracking window by a small H. Note that the H shifts to the right along the X-axis when the positive X offset (7 meters) is entered. The H moves down, parallel to the Y-axis, when the negative Y offset (-10 meters) is entered. The target continues to be tracked and now displays X and Y data in relation to the pitch / roll center of the vessel.

    TRACKPOINT 3 INSTALLATION 2.3.3 HYDROPHONE-VRU OFFSET The VRU offset is the difference in angle between the installed hydrophone and vertical (static off- set). (It can also represent the offset between the Remote Dynamic Motion Sensor and the Hydro- phone.) Offsets can occur either due to a mis-aligned hydrophone or from changes in trim to the vessel.

If calculations cannot be performed on the data received, a message is displayed in the Status Block and an ERROR CODE is sent out on the RS-232.
  • Page 134 TRACKPOINT 3 BRIEF ERROR CODE LISTING CODE TARGET ERROR DESCRIPTION depth to calculate horizontal range. Horizontal range calculated to be greater than slant range. Low Quality Factor NOTE: Error codes less than 20 result in no new position updates, while error codes of 21 or greater are warnings.
  • Page 135 TRACKPOINT 3 EXPLANATION OF ERROR CODES CODE DESCRIPTION # TOD HDG BRG S.R. TEL ERR 1 02:12:04 1 02:12:06 When an Error Code 6 occurs, -.- lines are sent out the RS-232 as shown above to indicate invalid data within those data fields. Minimum range error.
  • Page 136 TRACKPOINT 3 EXPLANATION OF ERROR CODES CODE DESCRIPTION Pinger Only: This warning applies only when hydrophone offsets are entered and when track- ing a pinger where its depression angle is < 20° from the horizontal. Its purpose is to notify the on-line computer system, via the RS-232, that all ranges and x or y coordinates to that target are minimum values and generally do not indicate actual ranges.
  • Page 137 TRACKPOINT 3 EXPLANATION OF ERROR CODES CODE DESCRIPTION When tracking a transponder or responder in calculated depth mode and the target's depres- sion angle is < 45° from the horizontal, this error code warns that the system is no longer calculating depth in determining target position.

  • Page 138: Troubleshooting Acoustic Problems

    TRACKPOINT 3 OPERATION TROUBLESHOOTING ACOUSTIC PROBLEMS 3.6.1 TRANSPONDER MODE A transponder emits an acoustic signal of a known frequency in response to an acoustic interroga- tion pulse sent from the TrackPoint II transmitter. The primary advantage of using a transponder is that the target range can be measured directly from the round-trip travel time of the acoustic signals.
  • Page 139 TRACKPOINT 3 OPERATION when the transmitter is turned back on, still with erratic ranges. If this is occurring, the operator should lower the output power of the TrackPoint transmitter by changing the output jumper on the transmitter board, or increase the transponder's lock-out time and use a longer interrogate inter- val.

  • Page 140: Acoustic Problems In Responder Mode

    TRACKPOINT 3 OPERATION If a slower repetition rate does not solve the problem (or if the repetition rate is already slower than two or three seconds), the operator should try to isolate the sources of multi-path and resolve the independent factors using the above guidelines. Transponder responds correctly and hydrophone receives correctly giving accurate slant ranges but erratic bearings.

    TRACKPOINT 3 APPENDIX B APPENDIX-B ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) The printed circuit boards within the TrackPoint 3 console can be damaged by ESD. Many of the electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Some devices can be damaged by a potential as low as 30Volts. People are a prime source of device-damaging electrostatic potentials. Activities such as walking or working at a bench can generate thousands of Volts of static potential.
