SAFETY IS FIRST
Rev No: 01
Check status of light in front of VMR Unit as following:
 If U Green Led and R Yellow Led are on, there is no error and the
incoming power supply is correct.
 If U Green Led and one of Red Leds ( >U, <U, P ) are on, the incoming
power supply is wrong, we must turn off Power Supply, check the
source of power supply or change phase sequence by swapping position
of any 2 power supply wires.
Warning: Switching off Power Supply, following Lockout/Tagout procedure to
make sure all relevant people safety and avoid breaking down to equipment.
7. Check voltage and frequency of Incoming Power Supply
* Tun on Main CB (CB1), check the voltage and frequency on the screen display of
Incoming Supply Meter: 3-phase 440VAC-60Hz or 3-phase 400VAC-50Hz
Incoming Supply Meter
SAFETY IS FIRST
Rev No: 01
8. Switch on ECM Relay and Reset MPR

The depression of the ECM reset push-button activates the ECM relay and the indicator
lamp on Power Display Panel is illuminated.
The depression of the MPR reset push-button will reset corresponding MPR Unit and
will illuminate the MPR reset push button on Power Display Panel.
9. Switch on CB on Power Distribution Unit

Turn on CB to supply for Sub-sea system with options: ROV Pod (CB2), ROV Motor
(CB3), TMS Pod(CB4), TMS Motor(CB5).
SAFETY IS FIRST
Rev No: 01
10. Power Diagnostics on Touch Screen

Before completely supplying for Sub-sea System, check the ready status of system on
Touch screen: Touch POWER DIAG key on Main OPS page, we see the status of ROV
Motor, ROV Pod, TMS Motor, TMS Pod and General on each respective Column.
Power Diag on Touch screen
If one of status is red, it means its error occurs and can not supply for Sub-sea System.
Errors can occur and we can normally resolve as following:
SAFETY IS FIRST
Rev No: 01
* Emergency Stop: Using key to pull the Emergency Stop button, press Emergency
Stop Reset button, the green led will occur in it.
* LIM: Try to reset on LIM Unit

* Door Open: Check the Power room door interlock by measuring continously on 2
wires: 199-A-BL, 276-A- BL or check fuse F38 on the rack in control cabin.
11. Switch on Sub-sea circuits

In order to completely supply to Sub-sea System, starting Power Controls on Desk
Plate:

* ROV Motor or TMS Motor

Motor will be disabled if any of two conditions arise: any reservoir level below
40%, loss of telemetry of any required node.
Check oil level of Reservoir and Compensator: ROV Oil Volumes (VEH RES,
JB/VP, MOTOR) or TMS Oil Volumes (RES, TERM, VP, MOTOR) should be
approximately 80% full.
After Pod is switched on and completely checking oil level, telemetry, press on
