BEFORE REMOVING ANY SUB-UNIT OR PCB, ALL SUPPLIES MUST BE SWITCHED OFF. A CURRENT OF 100 mA PASSING THROUGH THE HUMAN BODY FOR ONE SECOND CAN KILL. THIS CAN OCCUR AT VOLTAGES AS LOW AS 35 V AC OR 50 V DC. SOME EQUIPMENT IN THE SYSTEM USES ELECTRICAL POWER THAT CAN BE LETHAL.
KH2060 Prelims SAFETY WARNINGS SERVICING THE EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE SERVICED BY AUTHORISED AGENTS ONLY. Mains Voltage All Kelvin Hughes equipment is supplied with Mains Voltage set for 220V, 50/60 Hz AC unless stated otherwise on labels attached to the equipment. Picture Freeze The rare event of Processor failure is indicated by non-operation of the trackerball, no update of screen data, and the time shown on the Visual Display Unit will not be updated.
KH2060 Prelims RADIATION HAZARD: NON-IONISING ANTENNA RADIATION HAZARD: INJURY CAN RESULT FROM EXPOSURE TO THE MAIN BEAM OF A STATIONARY RADAR ANTENNA. DO NOT STAND LESS THAN 2m FROM THE CENTRAL FRONT FACE OF THE ANTENNA. It is accepted in most countries that no significant hazard is presented by radio frequency mean power density levels up to 10mW/cm. RF power levels in excess of this may cause harmful effects, particularly to the eyes.
KH2060 Prelims MICROWAVE RADIATION LEVELS. Measurement of radiation levels were conducted on 10th July 2008 at QinetiQ. The manufacturer’s representative assisted and enabled the antenna rotation to be disabled and transmission maintained. Test equipment used was a Narda survey meter mod 8718B and an isotropic probe mod 8721 ser no 13003. A table of results is presented below.

KH2060-1 KH2060-1 INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION INTRODUCTION 1 The MantaDigital Radar System is designed and manufactured to be compliant with the IMO MSC.192(79) Radar Performance Standard. These advanced radar systems have been tested and certified to Test Standard IEC 62388.
KH2060-1 7 MantaDigital may be used as stand-alone systems, or as part of an Integrated Bridge System (IBS) or Integrated Navigation System (INS). A radar installation can comprise a single stand-alone radar system or may include multiple radar systems with possibilities to interswitch sensors and displays. 8 This manual contains information on all the operational features of the MantaDigital Radar System.
KH2060-1 12 Typical MantaDigital Radar Systems are shown in Figures 1 to 5. NOTE: The single radar systems shown in Figures 1 to 3 have no redundancy built in. In the event of a single equipment failure the whole radar system may cease to function.

KH2060-1 NOTE: The dual radar systems shown in Figures 4 and 5 use the Radar Interswitch Unit to distribute the radar data from the radar sensors to the radar displays. In the event of the Radar Interswitch Unit failing, each radar sensor will be connected to its default radar display (as set up on installation) allowing the system to operate with reduced functionality. This allows the system to have some operational capability in the event of a single point of failure.

The Chapter is divided into three parts (1) Preventive Maintenance (2) Diagnostic Maintenance (3) Corrective Maintenance WARNING LETHAL VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE THE EQUIPMENT.
KH2060-4 Performance Checks - Monthly or Before Leaving Port 8 The performance of the magnetron, transmission line and receiver circuits is checked by carrying out a performance monitor check. 9 The performance monitors consist of: 10 (1) Transmission Monitor - comprises a monitor arm fitted to the outer case of the scanner unit. The monitor arm neon is ionised as the antenna passes over the arm, and a ‘plume’ is shown on the screen.

KH2060-4 DIAGNOSTIC MAINTENANCE 11 These paragraphs provides diagnostic maintenance procedures which the user may follow to restore normal operation. If normal operation cannot be restored, do not attempt to check inside any unit. Any repair work is best left to a qualified technician. 12 Warning messages are shown in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. TABLE 1 - TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM Picture not updated or picture freeze-up.
KH2060-4 PROBLEM CAUSE Failure Messages - Kelvin Hughes TM SharpEye transceiver No Sync The sync pulses from the transceiver are not being detected at the radar display No Video The radar video from the transceiver is not being detected at the radar display No Azimuth The azimuth pulses from the transceiver are not being detected at the radar display REMEDY One or more of these messages may appear in the alarm box of the screen if the signals are missing.
KH2060-4 PROBLEM CAUSE REMEDY One or more of these messages may appear in the alarm box of the screen if the signals are missing. Note the messages that are shown, as this information will assist the service engineer. Failure messages - external equipment, e.g. Gyro Fail The gyro input has not been detected. Check the reading on the associated gyro unit. If a gyro repeater is fitted, check that the repeater is on and reading accurately. Log Fail The log input has not been detected.
KH2060-4 Single Point of Failure 13 In systems with multiple Radar Sensors and Radar Displays, the Radar Sensors are interfaced with the Radar Displays via a Radar Interswitch Unit (RIU). The RIU is the critical point in the configuration as all signals are routed via the RIU. 14 If any one of the Radar Sensors or Radar Displays fails, the system will remain operational with reduced capability, i.e. loss of one Radar Sensor or one Radar Display.
KH2060-4 NOTE: The magnetron in the transceiver is a lifed item, and should be replaced when the running hours approach the life of the magnetron. Refer to the relevant radar sensor Ship's Manual for details of life of a specific magnetron and for the procedures to replace the magnetron. CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE WARNING LETHAL VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE THE EQUIPMENT.
KH2060-4 26 Close the front cover. 27 Restore the power supply to the processor and check that the system is operating correctly.
KH2060-4 Radar Sensor Maintenance 28 Radar Sensor maintenance is provided in the Ship's Manual for the radar sensor. The only information provided here is general information on working aloft and information on lifed components. WARNING ANTENNA ROTATION: BEFORE MAINTENANCE TO THE TURNING MECHANISM TAKES PLACE, DISABLE ANTENNA ROTATION.
KH2060-4 Restoration of System Configuration in the event of Hard Disk Failure 38 On installation the system configuration data is stored on the hard disk. A back-up of this data is taken after installation. This back-up must be stored so that it can be used to restore the system in event of hard disk failure. The menus used to backup and restore the configuration data are password protected and are not available to the user. 39 Map and route data is also stored on the hard disk.
