HiPAP System description The system is used to position subsea objects in both shallow and deep water. The HiPAP systems calculates the accurate positions of subsea objects such as Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV’s), towed bodies or fixed seabed transponders.
HiPAP Instruction Manual System diagram The System diagram identifies the main components of the system, as well as the connections between the main units. Computer Transceiver Hull unit Transducer Hull Unit Controller Responder Driver Unit (optional) 396013/F...
HiPAP System units Transceiver The transceiver transmits pulses of acoustic energy, or sound, through water and receives reflections, or echoes, of said pulses when they are reflected back from underwater objects. A pulse of acoustic energy is commonly referred to as a ping. The transceiver is a stainless steel cabinet that contains racks holding the system electronic modules.
HiPAP Instruction Manual Responder Driver Unit (optional) The Responder Driver Unit provides responder trigger signals to responders. The Responder Driver Unit is a stand-alone unit. The unit is interfaced to the HiPAP system via the transceiver unit. APOS controls which drive is being active while the sync/timing is received from the transceiver.
All equipment must be inspected for physical damage, i.e. broken controls and indicators, dents, scratches etc. during unpacking. If any damage to the equipment is discovered, the recipient must notify both the transportation company and Kongsberg Maritime so that Kongsberg Maritime can arrange for replacement or repair of the damaged equipment.
HiPAP Instruction Manual Support information Should you need technical support for your HiPAP system you must contact a Kongsberg Maritime office. A list of all our offices is available on our website. You can also contact our main support office in Norway.

HiPAP Instruction Manual Procedure Produce the cable according to the specification. Connect the cable between the power source and the transceiver. Loosen the cable gland on the cable to the filter. The top part needs to be loosened, not the nut. The cable gland is located near the bottom of the cabinet.
Page 27
Cabling Remove the 16 screws on the power box underneath the transceiver cabinet. Take care not to lose the gasket around the box. Remove the test cable. Enter the cable through the gland, connecting it as shown in the wiring diagram and the cable description.
HiPAP Instruction Manual 11 Connect the grounding cable to ships ground. Connecting the transducer to the transceiver The transducer cable is part of the hull unit delivery. Prerequisites The transducer cable is connected from the junction box that moves up and down with the transducer.
Page 29
Cabling Connect the cables to the correct circuit board. The connectors are numbered. Circuit board 1 is to the left following in sequence to board number 8 to the far right. Bundle the cables to the bracket inside the transceiver unit. Insert the cable ends of the other end of the cable into the junction box and fasten the cover.

HiPAP Instruction Manual About Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects. Such flow can be caused by contact, an electrical short, or dielectric breakdown. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to printed circuit boards and electronic modules.
Maintenance Precautions to prevent Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive printed circuit boards and electronic modules must always be transported and stored in protective antistatic packing bags. It as also important that they are not transported or stored close to strong electrostatic, electromagnetic or radioactive fields. If it is necessary to open and touch the printed circuit board or module inside the protective bag, the following precautions must be taken.
