Page 5: Safety
Handling instruction / DO NOT use marked place to handle the device 1.2 Proper Usage The OSM 4000 (Offshore Gyro Stabilization Mount) is designed to automatically stabilize cameras, scanners, LIDARs and all other surveying equipment in two rotational axes. The device is used to compensate random vehicle movements. -
Page 6: Watertightness Disclaimer
SOMAG AG Jena reserves the right to perform a cause analysis of devices damaged by water ingress to de- termine whether the defect is covered by the warranty. In case of damage to the bellow or connector ports, do NOT expose the Stabilization Mount to water, dust or any other harsh environment to prevent critical damage. -

Page 9: General Safety Tips
• DO NOT lift the OSM 4000 by the areas marked by the red crosses. You will likely squeeze your hands if you use these positions to lift and carry the device. Furthermore, it is possible to damage the shell of the unit. -

Page 13: Installation
• The usage of an adapter plate between the mounting surface and the OSM 4000 must be authorized by SOMAG AG Jena or qualified personnel. The installation of an unsuitable adapter could lead to heavy vibra- tions, which would cause serious damage to the device. -
Page 14: Mass - Center Of Gravity - Lateral Acceleration Correlation
4.1.3. • Data example (blue marked): The OSM 4000 will work properly with a payload weight of 250 kg, a payload Center of Gravity of approx. 450 mm above the mounting surface (see Figure 5) and maximum lateral ac- celerations (caused by the vessel on which the Mount is installed) of 0.5 g. -
Page 15: Dimensions Of Fastening Holes / Footprint
Mount shown in chapter 3. 4.1.4 Dimensions of Fastening Holes / Footprint • 4x Ø13.5 mm through holes in the OSM 4000 base plate to fasten the device. • Screws must be longer than 25 mm to run through the OSM 4000 base plate. -
Page 16: Installation / Installing The Osm 4000
Make sure that the mounting pad area (see Figure 4) is clear of objects. • Position the device straight over the installation holes. • Install the OSM 4000 with four screws. A torque of 30 Nm is required to secure the device safely. 112302-901-08/04 OSM 4000 16 / 26... -
Page 17: Main Dimensions / Mounting The Payload
8x M8 / 12 mm deep threaded holes are provided for installation purposes. It is necessary to use at least 4x mounting holes to install the payload or an adapter plate properly. Figure 5: OSM 4000 payload mounting holes, main dimensions, cog and pivot •... -

Page 22: Getting Started
The device runs the electronic test phase (ETP) to check proper functionality of all sensors and electronic components. When the MTP, RTP and ETP are completed, the OSM 4000 turns into its preset default mode (can be set up with the SOMAG Mount Control App / see chapter 5.1). -
Page 23: Manual Operation (Man Mode)
Check that the ‘MAN’ Mode is selected (‘MAN’ Mode button shines yellow) in the SOMAG Mount Control App (see chapter 5.1) and use the sliders to move roll and pitch (yaw axis is not enabled on the OSM 4000). Under certain movement conditions (strong turbulence, harsh environmental conditions), for troubleshooting purposes or for checking the safety area of the payload it can be necessary to control the Mount manually with the SOMAG Mount Control App (see chapter 5.1). -
Page 24: Maintenance, Transport And Storage
The OSM 4000 should be returned to the manufacturer for maintenance every two years. The requirement for service is also signaled in the SOMAG Mount Control App (see chapter 5.1). Should a malfunction of the Mount occur, please contact SOMAG AG Jena to solve the problem as quickly as possible. -
Page 25: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting • It is strongly recommended to contact the manufacturer (SOMAG AG Jena) immediately if a problem occurs. Any repairs which are not authorized by the manufacturer will void the war- ranty. 7.1 Firmware Update If you need to change or update the firmware version, please contact your local support or the manufacturer, SOMAG AG Jena. -
Page 26: Powerless Top Surface Movement
Make sure to turn back the grey rotary knob to its start position (Figure 9/ Step 1) to enable automatic functionality of the Mount. • Ensure to refit the bronze cover to the Mount, as otherwise watertightness cannot be guaran- teed. 112302-901-08/04 OSM 4000 26 / 26...
