GENERAL ARRANGEMENT
2150-31-0009
Page 5 of 13
Sonavision Ltd.
Aberdeen, Scotland
The general arrangement of the Minerva surface unit consists of
a solid state sonar control computer housed in a 2U high 19 inch
rack mounted housing.
It also incorporates a handheld remote sonar controller unit
incorporating soft touch buttons and trackerball. This is
connected via an ultra reliable self coiling cable.
The unit also includes a CDRW drive for backup and storage of
sonar data files and screen images.
Section 2.0 SYSTEM INSTALLATION
2.1
INTRODUCTION
The 2150 Minerva unit has been designed to mount directly into
an existing 19 inch racking system. A clean ac power source is
recommended for reliable operation and to prevent damage to
the equipment, although the Minerva does have ac filtering as
standard. The unit requires an SVGA monitor capable of
displaying 256 colours at a minimum resolution of 800x600.
PS/2 mouse and keyboard sockets are situated at the front and
rear of the unit. This allows users to decide whether the front or
rear connectors are to be utilised for keyboard and mouse
operation.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST A KEYBOARD AND MOUSE
BE CONNECTED TO THE FRONT AND REAR OF THE MINERVA AT
THE SAME TIME.
Failure to adhere to the above statement could result in damage
to the equipment.
The unit has a standard Sonavision ITT 6 pin connector on the
rear for connection to the ROV umbilical. This connector also
supplies 24vdc for testing sonars using a test cable or for
applications with short cable connections to the sonar.
The 24v output is not designed to supply the sonar while
attached to a vehicle. It is for test purposes or short cable use
only.
Sonavision recommend the maximum cable length does not
exceed 35m when sonar is directly powered from surface unit.
2.2
PACKING/UNPACKING
The unpacking procedure is as follows:
Remove unit from its transit box.
Issue 2
2150-31-0009
Page 6 of 13
Sonavision Ltd.
Aberdeen, Scotland
Check that the contents of each case conforms to the
packing note.
Notify the manufacturer of discrepancies and/or transit
damage.
Retain the transit case for future shipment.
2.3
INSTALLATION
To install the Minerva unit proceed as follows:
2.4
a)
Remove Minerva from the packing case and inspect for
transit damage, retain the transit case for future shipment.
b)
If mounting the unit in a 19 inch rack ensure there is
space to accommodate its 2U height and rear connector
requirements.
c)
Ensure that the peripherals (eg monitor, mouse and
keyboard etc) have sufficient cable lengths to connect
with the unit.
d)
Connect all peripherals including the power lead, choose
which ports (front or rear) to connect mouse/keyboard (if
desired).
e)
Switch unit on via front panel “power” switch and ensure
startup sequence is displayed on screen.
OPERATION
Getting Started
The 2150 will boot in the same way as a standard desktop PC.
After passing through the initial bootup sequence, Windows XP
Embedded will start, followed by SonaVision control software.
Please refer to SonaVision Software manual for software
operation.
Connection of the sonar is via the 6 pin ITT cannon connector
situated on the rear of the unit. The pinout of which is the same
as previous SonaVision surface control units.
Initial System Testing
To test operation of a sonar before installation onto a vehicle it is
recommended that connection is made between the two units
using a test cable. Test cables are optional and may have been
included if the Minerva unit was supplied as part of a sonar
package. If this not the case a test cable can be purchased from
Sonavision to suit the preferred sonar model.
If the SonaVision surface control software fails to appear on the
screen, double click on the icon to start the application.

When connection between the sonar and surface unit is made,
power is applied by switching the “sonar” switch located on the
front panel. This switches the internal 24v power supply to the
sonar connected to the 6 pin connector.
If testing an SV4000, SV3000, SV6000 or the Titan range of
sonars, the sonar head will be seen to rotate until it finds it`s
headstrobe or points in the forward direction. SV2000 or
Mercury sonars cannot be seen to rotate due to the head boot,
but a high pitched whistle can be heard to indicate operation.
When the sonar head finds its headstrobe the communications
will commence between the surface and subsea units. The
green LEDs on the front of the Minerva will flash to indicate data
transmission. The message at the bottom of the screen will read
“subsea comms ok” and a PPI trace will be visible on the
monitor.
Connection to ROV umbilical
Data is transferred between the Minerva and sonar using RS485
or RS232 format from the 6 way ITT cannon connector.
An further 9 pin D-type connector provides a second COM port
connection to the PC. This connection is used in versions of
software which output data to other equipment but it can be reconfigured to communicate with the sonar. Signal levels from
this connector are strictly RS232.
RS485 2 wire format (standard on all SonaVision sonars)
requires one shielded twisted pair on the ROV umbilical directly
from the vehicle to the ROV surface console. A two wire
shielded connection is then required between the ROV console
and Minerva surface unit.
Care must be taken to ensure that the RS485 communication
lines are completely isolated from earth. Sonavision also advise
that the shield is only earthed at either the subsea or surface
end only. This is to prevent ground loops.
When data line connection is made between the Minerva and
sonar via an ROV umbilical. It is important that the 24 volt
output from the Minerva is not connected.
Operation can be tested once installation has been completed
by ensuring the vehicle is switched on and the SonaVision
surface control software is open.
RS485 4 wire communications can also be provided by the
Minerva, providing that the sonar unit has been set up to be
compatible. This form of communications is relatively uncommon
since it offers little advantage over 2 wire communications.
Storing Data
Issue 2
2150-31-0009
Page 8 of 13
Sonavision Ltd.
Aberdeen, Scotland
Please refer to the SonaVision Surface control manual for
detailed information on sonar operation.
The Minerva differs slightly from normal PC based surface units
in that it doesn’t contain a physical hard drive and all its storage
devices are removable and are as follows:
a)
CD read/write drive:
This can be clearly seen on the front of the unit.
b)
Industrial flash memory card
Accessed through a slot on the right side of the unit
The CDRW drive is configured to mimic a floppy drive to be
used for storage of sonar data files and screen images. New
CDRW disks must be formatted before they can be successfully
written. This is done automatically when a blank disk is inserted
into the drive
Information can be directly saved onto the CDRW disk from
within the SonaVision software as a bitmap (for screen grabs) or
data file. This can then be easily transported onshore or to an
email computer to be beamed back to base. See the Sonavision
software operating manual for details.
The flash memory card holds the XP operating system and
SonaVision software. It can be written to in the same way as a
harddrive, although it has limited capacity and should only be
used as a temporary storage device.
2.5
MAINTENANCE
The 2151 remote unit requires little maintenance. It may be
occasionally required that the remote be wiped with a damp
cloth to remove dust that if left to build up can hinder switch
operation.
If trackerball operation becomes erratic it may be necessary to
remove and clean the ball and cavity. This is done by inserting
the supplied tool into the two locating holes on the trackerball
and turning in an anti-clockwise direction. This will release the
retaining ring allowing the removal of the ball. Use methylated
spirits to clean the ball and cavity with a clean cotton cloth. (For
more information see 2151 remote manual).
The Minerva requires little maintenance but the occasional wipe
with a damp cloth will ensure the unit is kept clean.
