1 1. Overview The satellite compass, SC-50/110 calcula tes the heading by using the carrier signal of the GPS satellite signals. The system also calculates the heading with three rate sensors. When the satellite signal is blocked, the system output s the heading data based on the rate sensor signal for a maximum of 5 minutes.
2 2. Maintenance Menu The system provides TEC menu or Maintenance m enu for servicing. To show TEC menu, press and hold down MENU and ENT keys simultaneously until the menu appears af ter three beeps. It takes about 8 seconds to hear the third beep. Release the finger from MENU key, and then ENT key.
3 Shows difference between GPS and rate sensor. Shows an error. 1: error, 0: no error 1 normally Factory use Factory use 2) COMPASS display MASK-EL is used to set a minimum elevation angle of the satellite. The satellite of which elevation angle is lower than MASK-EL is not used for heading calculation.
4 4) R-CALIB display R-CALIB (Rate sensor Calibration) is used to enter the calibration value of the rate sensor at factory. It is not necessary to change this value when the rate sensor is replaced with new one. However, the value on top of the original sens or is written on top of the replacement sensor for future service.
5 Number of consecutive errors (For example, an error message appears with three consecutive ROL errors.) 5) RATE ERR display This menu sets the level to trigger the heading error alarms; NO HEADING OUTPUT and RATE ERROR. The system compares the output of the angular rate sensor with one obtained by the GPS signal.
6 7) ALARM display This menu sets the ALARM port signal. When ALARM MODE is set to “STOP,” the alarm signal is not sent out after acknowledgeme nt. When selected “Continue,” the system continues to output the alarm signal. 8) ANALOG display This menu is used to test and compensate th e motion sensor output signal.
7 The display consists of four indications; a ci rcular graph which shows direction where the tracking error rate is the highest, a bar gr aph which shows tracking error rates in 12 directions, mutlipath indexes, and elapsed time. Circular graph: Shows the relation of 12 directions to the bow.
8 10) MESSAGE display Error messages appear in the display. If RATE E RROR! appears, first check Installation Setup menu for correct setting: “Mounting” method and “Direction.” Fig.14 Error Message display 11) REC MONI menu The REC MONI display, Figure 15 shows whether the system works normally or not.
9 3. Replacement of Battery The processor unit has a battery which back s up the RAM contents when the power is removed. When the voltage of the battery dr ops to 2.5 V, the message “BATTERY!” appears on the screen. To check the message, pre ss [MENU] key and choose “MESSAGE.
10 5. Program Upgrade The three programs are used for the SC-50/110. Two programs are used in the processor unit and one program is in the display unit. The program num bers are tabulated below. Note that the program number of SC-50 is the sam e as SC-110, but they are different.
11 2) CPU board (Display unit) To upgrade the program on the CPU board; 1. Connect the serial port of the PC to J15 on MAIN board in the processor unit. 2. Turn on the PC. Do not as yet turn on the SC-50/110. 3. Click the SCUP.bat file in the SC-50/110 program file.
12 6. Maintenance 6.1 Adjustment 1) PWR board Switching regulator frequency is adjusted on PWR board, 20P8181 as below. Test Point GND Rating Adjuster TP2 TP1 120.0 kHz ± 10 kHz VR79 TP5 TP3 120.0 kHz ± 10 kHz VR80 2) MAIN board Vcc-c supply voltage to Rate sensor is adjusted by VR96 on MAIN board, 20P8178.

17 2. Grounding Cable Shield Ground the cable shield or gr ounding wire to the chassis by using the screw fixing the MAIN board, 20P8178 to the chassis.
18 3. Adding Zener Diodes Zener diodes are added to the data output circuit as below. 1. Fabricate the diode as shown in the figure below. T y p e : R D 9 . 1 E B 3 - T 4 C/N: 000-138-700 Fig. 4 Fabrication of zener diode 2. Remove the coat and solder the diode.
19 Reference) The following waveforms show the effe ctiveness of the modification. With the SC-50/110 processor unit being not m odified, a spike noise is observed at the output terminal on SC-50/110 when the interconnected unit is turned on. (Fig. 6) After modification, t he noise is not observed.
20 Appendix 2 Modification on Data Output Circuit Appendix 1 describes the tentative remedy to prevent U1, U2, and U3 in the heading output circuit from being damaged. Following modification (Table below) is the permanent remedy. The connector is changed from 4 pins to 5 pins for the connection of cable shield.
