The 2300 Multiplexer and Data Telemetry Assembly is the power, digital telemetry, and device interface hub of the 2300 vehicle. The system consists of 3 parts: Rack Mounted Topside, Digital Telemetry conversion, and the Device Multiplexer within the 2300 Vehicle. The Rack Mounted Topside consists of the multiplexer's data distribution hub, high voltage power supply, and the EdgeTech data display and control computer.

Figure 6-2. As noted previously … the StarMux IV is the dry side of the 2300’s telemetry system. To access a sensor’s serial data, a cable must be run from the Starmux IV rear panel serial connection to a computer (such as the optional Topside PC). The Starmux IV Serial Interfaces are NOT recognized by the Windows OS and cannot be changed using any Windows utility.

Serial Port #1 being DTE). Four BNC connectors are provided to connect FSK and/or TTL/CMOS digital triggers to the system. Only the FSK input is presently used in the 2300 to provide a Topside Trigger to the Tracking Beacon. When the Digital I/O feature is active, there is one additional input and two additional output triggers.
6.2 Topside Processing and Display Computer A standard Edgetech Topside computer assembly is used to run Discover software and to remotely log in to the 2205 sonar processor. The computer and the Starmux IV are typically shipped in a rackmount case, as shown in Figures and 6-4.
(IP). There are no user-serviceable parts within the chassis. Changes to IP addresses are NOT recommended as the changes must be propagated to each channel of the Topside and Subsea interfaces. Please contact EdgeTech customer support for assistance. 7.1 Topside 8-Port Serial-to-IP Interface This is an 8-port device that converts serial data to IP packets.

2300 System Technical and User’s Guide cannot accept a DC path from the EdgeTech system, the internal sea ground can be ONLY capacitively coupled to the bottle/sea ground interface. FAQ / Troubleshooting 14.1 Serial Port TX/RX Determination When connecting to a serial port, the issue at hand is which pin is doing what. A quick check with a DVM can be made to determine which pin is the transmit pin on the two ports being used.
2300 System Technical and User’s Guide 14.4 TerraTerm monitoring of NEMA Data The default screen is shown below (figure 14-1). NEMA data is available on the network provided the device (such as a GPS) is connected to Starmux IV Serial Port #1. This ports connects the GPS to the Topside Serial-to-IP converter and broadcasts it data on the network.

2300 System Technical and User’s Guide that the units be changed back to the default rate once the mission is complete. The baud rate settings must be changed in the Topside and Subsea Serial-to-IP converters. NOTE: Changes to the Windows OS serial ports will NOT have any effect on the Telemetry system but additional changes may be necessary if Telemetry system’s output is connected to a PC COM port.

Once changed, the Right Hand Window will indicate that the system needs to be REBOOTED.
2300 System Technical and User’s Guide 14.6 Monitoring Serial Data All telemetered serial data can be monitored from either the Topside or Subsea Serial-to-IP interface using the Statistics display. This will show if any data is being transmitted or received by the device on the corresponding serial port.

2300 System Technical and User’s Guide Figure 14-8. Serial Statstics Display In this window, the ACTIVE ports are displayed with the baud rate selected. If the RX & TX windows are updating, then data is being received or transmitted. If no data is being received (external device is sending data to the Serial-to-IP converter), then there is a problem between those two components.
