Suitable shields must be provided where cables are installed in the vicinity ot heat sources. ‘+ Unless absolutely unavoidable, cables should not be installed across the vessel’s expansion joints. If this is unavoidable. a loop of cable having a length proportional to the expansion of the joint should be provided. The minimum intemal radius of the loop should be at least twelve times the extemal diameter of the cable. ‘© Where a service requires duplicate supply lines, the cables should follow separate paths, whenever possible. ‘Cables having insulation materials with different maximum rated conductor temperatures should not be bunched together (.e. in a common clip, gland, conduit or duct). When this is impracticable the cables should be carefully bunched so that the ‘maximum rating is that of the lowest-rated cable. ‘Cables with protective coverings which may damage other cables, should not be bunched together with such cables. ‘Cables having a copper sheath or braiding should be installed in such a way that galvanic corrosion by contact with other metals is prevented. ‘+ Cables should not be installed in the same cable run as high power cables. ‘+n order to allow for future expansion of the DP system all cables should be allocated Doe. no 17102 Harchldpfeveransee Page 27 Technical Manual ADP700 Chapter 6: Cabling spare conductor pairs. Also space within the vessel should be set aside for the installation of extra cables. 6.3 Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Protection All cables that will be permanently installed within 9m (30 ft) of any source of Radio Frequency Interference (RFT) such as a transmintr aerial system or radio cabin should, unless shielded by a metal deck or bulkhead, be adequately screened by sheathing, braiding or other suitable material. In such a situation flexible cables should be screened wherever practicable. It is important that cables, other than those supplying services to the equipment installed in a radio room, are not installed in a radio mom. Cables which must pass through a radia roam should be screened by a continuous metal conduit or trunking which must be bonded to the screening of the radio room at its point of entry and exit. 6.4 Physical Protection ‘* Cables exposed to a nsk of physical damage should be enclosed in a steel conduit or protected by a metal casing unless the cable's covering (¢.g. armour or sheath) is sufficient to protect is from the damage risk. ‘Cables exposed to an exceptional risk of mechanical damage (for example in holds. storage-spaces and cargo-spaces) should be protected by a suitable casing or conduit, even when armoured, ifthe cable covering does not afford sufficient protection for the cables. * Metallic materials used for he physical protection of cables should be adequately protected against corrosion, Dec. no, se1 71025 Aachidplvermaer Page 28 Technical Manual ADPT00 Chapter 6: Cabling 6.5 Earthing of Protective Metallic Coverings ‘All merallic cable coverings (armour, lead sheath etc,) should be electrically connected to the vessel's hull at both ends except in the case of final sub-circuits where they should be connected at the supply end only. ‘Earthing connections should be made with a conductor which has a cross-sectional area related to the current rating of the cable or with a metal clamp which grips the metallic covering of the cable and is earthed to the hull of the vessel. These cable coverings may also be earthed by means of glands specially intended for this purpose and designed to ensure a good earth connection. ‘The glands used must he firmly attached to, and in good electrical contact with, a metal structure earthed in accordance with these recommendations. Electrical continuity must be ensured along the entire length of all cable coverings particularly at joints and tappings. + In no case should lead-sheathed cables be used as the only means of earthing non- current-carrying conductors. # Metallic casings, pipes and conduits should be earthed, and when fitted with joints should be mechanically and electrically earthed. 6.6 Cable Identification Cable identification codes corresponding to the W number (e.g. W1, W2 etc.) shown in the Cable Plan should be attached to each of the external cables. These identification codes should e positioned on the cable in such a way thal, where possible, dicy are readily visible after all panels have been fitted.

On-Line Test 8.1 Introduction ‘The ADP700 Computer Cabinet contains built-in test-program that continually checks the complete ADP system (for example, thruster feedback signals and vessel position deviation) and also indicates faults and unwanted conditions, while the system is operational, Ifa fault or other unwanted system condition is detected, indications and messages are given to the operator via lamp and display on the System Operator's Terminal (see Operator’s Manual). ‘The Operator's Manual alsa includes a set af ermr message descriptions which provide extra information on the displayed messages, which are necessarily short because of the small size of the display. Power supply units inside the ADP700 cabinet include indicator lamps that indicate when the unit is faulty, but power faults will also be indicated on the display provided the faults are not too destructive (e.g low voltage). 8.2 Fault-Finding Guide ‘When a message Is given, the operator can examine the relevant message description and 10 decide whether he can correct the condition himself, or whether he must call a maintenance engineer (who could be the onboard electrician). a maintenance engineer is called , his proper actions can be summarised as follows: 1, Follow the guidance information given on the message description and, if possible, ‘identify the part which is causing the fault. 2. If the fault is traced to a unit not manufactured by Simrad Albatross, refer to the unit's ‘own Manual to find how to proceed (see section 10.1 for list of such units). 3._ If the fault lies in the system cabling/connections, or in a Simrad Albatross unit, ie. the System Computer Cabinet and the System Operator's Terminal or, if you have no idea ‘where the fault les, refer to the Fault- Finding Support (see next Section). 4. If you can’t correct or locate a faull,contact your nearest Service Depot (see list in section 10.4).

Those relevant to fault- finding are briefly as follows: ‘+ The System Diagram, for a maximum standard system, designed as support for ‘both fant-finding and installation, and which includes cable numbers The standard Production Drawings relevant to fault-finding. which include wiring diagrams of the Computer Cabinet, and the signal-lists of the cables from the Computer Cabinet to the rest of the system. The Production Drawings are relatively easy to use if the System Diagram is studied first, in onder to obtain a system overview, especially of power supplies. ‘The message descriptions are discussed on the following pages. oc. no st 71025 Natchalptevcraver Page 33 Technical Manual ADP700 Chapter 8: On-Line Test 8.4 Fault-Finding Examples To illustrate how the Faull-finding aids can be used, two message descriptions are reproduced in the following examples, and discussed in more detail. ‘Message Data Sheet Example 1: 001 THRUSTER/RUDDER, INSUFFICIENT READY Description : Number of ready thrusters/propellers or rudders 4s insufficient. Moeeage typo + Alarm Message class : THR (thrusters) Add. info 1; None Add. info 2: None Add. info 3: None Operative recommendation : Start more thrusters, propellers ox rudders Way of detection/symptoms : Digital Input Possible reason : Thrusters, propellers or rudders are not running. Brror in thruster, propeller or rudder elactranios, digital input interface, or cabling. Possible consequences : Impossible to use AUTO PILOT mode. Corrective action : Start more thrusters, propellers or rudders. Comments to Example 1 : When the operator gets the alarm detailed in example 1, he may, or may not, call a maintenance engineer. His immediate action in order to put things right (as stated after the heading "Operative Recommendations’) is to start more thrusters, propellers or rudders. When he has done this, he should examine the information given after the heading ‘Possible Reason’, where four possible reasons for the alarm are listed. (One possible reason is that the thrust device(s) which the operator has tried to use, has not been started, He can easily check if it has been started (e.g. by phoning the engine control room). If ithad not been started, there was no real fault, and there is no need for further action, If, on the other hand, the thnusters are minning, the remaining possible reasons for the alarm apply, i.e: 1, Error in thruster, propeller or rudder electronics (such they do not give an indication of being ready) Dos no 171025 arhladpevonne Page 24 Technical Manual ADP700 Chapter 8: On-Line Test 2, Error in Digital Input interface (the Digital Input card in the ADP cabinet) 3. Error in cabling. ‘An operator cannot investigate these possible causes and must therefore call a maintenance engineer to do so. In order to check the clectronics of the actual thrust devices, the maintenance cngincer must refer to the separate documentation for these devices To check errors 2. and 3., he can use the System Diagram to find the relevant Digital Input card and cable number, and can then use the Cable Signal-lists to check the cable terminations. Finally, if the fault cannot be located or corrected, the engineer should contact one of the ‘Simrad Albatross Service locations listed in Section 10.4.

Possible reason Possible consequences corrective action Comments to Example 2: ‘When the operator gets the alarm which is detailed in example 2, he should contact « maintenance engineer even though there is no Operative Recommendation, This is because the fault condition may actually be intermittant and non-critical, or even non- recurring. But, if it does recur for any length of time, the consequence could be that no ‘measurements will be received from the HPR (Hydro-acoustic Position Reference system), and then a message stating this will be giv However, a faulty condition has been detected and therefore the maintenance engineer should, at the earliest practical opportunity, try to locate the cause. ‘The possible reasons given in the description are that there is an error in the interface to the ‘HPR, or that the serial line to the HPR has bad connections. Reference to the System Diagram will show that the cable from the HPR is connected to the ‘SBC (Single Board Computer Card) in the ADP700 Cabinet. ‘This explains the Corrective Action stated on the description, which says that you should check the wiring to the HPR unit, or change the SBC card. To check the wiring, use the Reference Drawings. One of these shows the connections inside the ADP cabinet, and the signal-list for cable W4 shows the connections between the cabinet and the HPR.
