`^rqflk Risk of damage/destruction through low temperatures The supporting fluid in the gyrosphere container will start freezing at temperatures below 0° C.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 must no longer be operated when the ambient tem-perature at the gyrocompass’ location falls below - 10° C while the com-pass is in operation or when the ambient temperature falls below 0° C while the gyrocompass is not in operation.

Always make sure, that the ambient temperature is higher than 0° C respective 10° C. If this is not possible, the gyrosphere container with gyrosphere must be removed from the NAVIGAT X MK 1 and transported to a place with sufficient ambient temperature.

Make sure to remove the gyrosphere from the gyrosphere container if no place with sufficient ambient temperature is available to eliminate dam-age from freezing supporting fluid. The removal is to be executed in a service work procedure by authorized service personnel only.

`^rqflk Risk of damage through rotating masses After power-down of the compass system, the gyroscopes need at least 45 minutes to stop rotating. Opening the container or draining off the supporting fluid during rotating will damage the gyrosphere.

Wait at least 45 minutes after power-down of the compass system and make sure, that the gyroscopes have stopped rotating before opening the container or draining off the supporting fluid.

`^rqflk Risk of damage through inadequate cleaning solvents Do not clean the compass housing with organic solvents, acetone or any other substance which could damage or discolour plastic.

Use only soapy water or a mild detergent to clean the compass housing.

îááá p~ÑÉíó=fåëíêìÅíáçåë

`^rqflk Risk of damage through overheating A polluted or clogged air inlet grill located at the back side of the compass housing will decrease the functionality of the cooling fan and cause over-heating of the gyrocompass.

Always maintain the required distances around the compass housing to enable sufficient air supply and full cooling fan functionality.

Make sure to regularly clean the air inlet grill from dust and dirt and check the fan functionality to avoid overheating.

`^rqflk Risk of damage through unauthorized service Any service and installation work on the gyrosphere is to be carried out by authorized service personnel only.

Never undertake service or installation work if unskilled for the certain procedure.

`^rqflk Risk of damage through unauthorized service Only authorized service personnel is allowed to remove the gyrosphere from the gyrosphere container.

Always keep to the mandatory safety requirements and the correct serv-ice work procedure to remove the gyrosphere from the gyrosphere con-tainer.

`^rqflk Risk of damage through unauthorized service Only authorized service personnel is allowed to remove gyrocompass system components from the compass housing.

Always keep to the mandatory safety requirements and the correct serv-ice work procedures to remove gyrocompass system components from the compass housing.

`^rqflk Risk of damage to the gyrosphere The gyrosphere is always to be transported in its carrying box in the orig-inal transport container.

Do not throw or drop the transport container.

The transport container is to be transported in an upright position only.

`^rqflk Risk of damage to the gyrosphere Carry the carrying box containing the gyrosphere by hand only and han-dle it with extreme care.

Remove the gyroshpere from the carrying box only if required for imme-diate installation.

`^rqflk Risk of data loss through shutdown of the compass / power-off condition After a shutdown of the compasses main and backup power supplies it cannot be guaranteed that all menu settings remain stored unchanged.

Always check whether the shaft correction angle and alignment error cor-rection values are noted correctly in the setup tables, before switching-off the power supplies, see “Setup and Configuration Tables” on page A- 1 Appendix.

Always make sure to separately note the shaft correction angle and align-ment error correction values before switching-down the compass for maintenance or repair purposes.

`^rqflk Risk of defective gyrosphere caused by “GYRO FAILURE” Should a “GYRO FAILURE” alarm occur during power-up, the compass is not working properly.

De-energize the system and visually check the connections to the gyro-sphere, the follow-up step motor and the shaft encoder.

If the failure reoccurs when the compass is powered-up again, the instal-lation has not been carried out correctly or the gyrosphere is defective and must be replaced.

`^rqflk Risk of defective gyrosphere The gyrosphere may not be in operable working condition, if after a time period of around 45 minutes after power-up the gyrosphere current has not dropped below 320 mA.

If a visual inspection reveals no obvious cause of malfunction, the power-up cycle of the gyrosphere must be completely repeated.

If after a time period of around 45 minutes after the second power-up cycle the gyrosphere current has still not dropped below 320 mA, the gyrosphere may not be in operable working condition.

Contact the Sperry Marine Service for advice.

`^rqflk Risk of misleading gyrosphere data / operating values The temperature and gyrosphere current values are indicated as reading values at the CDU only.

Both values can be adjusted via correction values, which are set to neu-tral (= no correction) values by default.

Therefore the indicated values may deviate from real gyrosphere operat-ing values, which can only be measured at the required checkpoints by authorized service personnel.

`^rqflk Risk of inadequate correction values Any wrongful or not instructed adjustment of the temperature and gyro-sphere correction values will falsify a correct identification of the NAVIGAT X MK 1 system‘s operating conditions.

Only authorized service personnel is allowed to change the temperature and gyrosphere current correction values.

Never alter the correction values unless specifically instructed by Sperry Marine.

`^rqflk Risk of damage/destruction during transport The gyrosphere is always to be transported in its carrying box in the orig-inal transport container.

Do not throw or drop the transport container.

The transport container is to be transported in an upright position only.

Carry the carrying box containing the gyrosphere by hand only and han-dle it with extreme care. Remove the gyroshpere from the carrying box only if required for immediate installation.

`^rqflk Risk of damage/destruction after power-down After power-down of the gyrocompass system, it may take up to 45 minutes for the gyroscopes to stop rotating and the gyrosphere is therefore extremely sensible against any movement. Should the gyro-sphere touch the wall of the container, the momentum of the rotating gyroscopes will make it topple and damage the centre pin.

Avoid any movement of the gyrocompass system during power-down time. Always be extremely careful in case the gyrosphere container must be handled during power-down time.

`^rqflk Risk of damage of electrostatic-discharge-sensitive components The NAVIGAT X MK 1 contains electrostatic sensitive components.

Electrostatic discharge may permanently damage components.

When servicing the NAVIGAT X MK1, take considerable precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge. Avoid touching any of the electronic cir-cuitry.

`^rqflk Risk of loss of parameter settings through software exchange It cannot be guaranteed that parameter settings in the User and Setup menus and the entries made in the Magnetic Compass Calibration table are left intact when the software is exchanged.

Before exchanging the system software IC, record all parameter settings to be able to re-enter them manually, if required.

`^rqflk Risk of malfunction through wrong wiring Wrong wiring, especially as running wires from one side of the compass housing to the other or across the master PCB will cause malfunction.

Always use the cable inlets on both sides of the compass housing for accurate wiring and keep all wires running inside the housing as short as possible.

Always avoid to run wires from one side of the compass housing across to the other.

`^rqflk Risk of earth faults Wrong wiring of the cable shields makes the cables act as antennas resulting in earth faults.

Always make sure to correctly draw back the cable shields and fasten the cables to avoid earth faults.

kçíÉ In case of earth faults, it is recommended to always check first the cable wiring for correctly connected cable shields.

`^rqflk Risk of ROT filter malfunction The selected ROT filter setting in the manual settings menu needs addi-tional activation to gain ROT filter functionality For activating the ROT filter setting in the service setup 1, it is mandatory to pre-install a wire link at the master PCB TB2 19/20.

kçíÉ To make sure, that the ROT damping time constant setting for the ana-logue ROT output becomes effective, check if the mandatory wire link between the master PCB TB2 19/20 is correctly installed.

`^rqflk Risk of damage through aggressive cleaning agents Do not clean the compass with organic solvents, acetone or any other substance which could damage or discolour plastic.

Only use water and soap or a mild detergent to clean the compass.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 is a digital gyrocompass system for the maritime navigation of vessels and must be operated only from appropriately trained and educated personnel familiar with all mandatory safety and operating procedures.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 provides North-speed error corrected true heading data as well as rate of turn (ROT) data for the navigation of maritime vessels.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 can operate as a standalone system or as part of a multi gyrocompass system environment (Heading Management Sys-tem, HMS).

kçí=fåíÉåÇÉÇ=rëÉ

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 and/or the provided true heading and ROT data of the NAVIGAT X MK1 are not allowed to be used for the navigation of inland water vessels and river boats. Any exception to this restriction must be regulated by specific certification of an entitled organisation or administration, for further details see certification information under ”Design and Main Features” on page 1-6 and ”Marine Equipment Direc-tive EC Declaration of Conformity” on page 1-14.

Although the NAVIGAT X MK1 is a highly accurate system for providing true heading and ROT data, operators must not rely on it solely as the only heading source. The plausibility of the NAVIGAT X MK 1 heading and ROT data and the speed and position input data (as secondary data) must always be confirmed against all other available aids to navigation.

Since the NAVIGAT X MK 1 system can additionally be used for display-ing secondary navigation data (speed and position input data) gener-ated from other connected devices, the operator must not take displayed secondary data for granted and is obliged to confirm the validity of secondary data independently.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 is a microprocessor controlled marine gyrocom-pass system with integrated automatic North speed error correction.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 has been type approved by Germanischer Lloyd (GL), in accordance with the Marine Equipment Directive (MED) 96/98/ EC, as amended, as gyrocompass (certificate no. 94 418-10 HH), gyrocompass for high speed craft (HSC) (certificate no. 94 428-10 HH) and rate of turn indicator (ROTI) (certificate no. 94 424-10 HH).

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 Type 4914 CA complies with the following speci-fied standards as gyrocompass:

IMO resolutions A.424(IX), A.694(17), MCS.191(79), ISO 8728(1997, IEC 60945(2002), IEC 62288(2008) and IEC 61162 series.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 HSC-version Type 4914 CC (stock no. 74811) with a specially selected gyrosphere complies with the following specified standards as gyrocompass for high speed craft (HSC):

IMO resolutions A.821(19), A.694(17), MSC.36(63), MSC.97(73), MSC.191(79), ISO 16328(2001), IEC 60945(2002), IEC 62288 (2008) and IEC 61162 series.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 Type 4914 CA and NAVIGAT X MK 1 HSC-version Type 4914 CC comply with the following specified standards as rate of turn indicator (ROTI):

IMO resolutions A.526(13), A.694(17), MSC.36(63), MSC.97(73), MSC.191(79), ISO 20672(2007), IEC 60945(2002), IEC 62288(2008) and IEC 61162 series.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 has been type approved by the Russian River Register (RRR) for the purpose of provision of navigation safety of inland navigation and river-sea going vessels and has been assigned certificate 190-06-3.1.1.

For further details see “Marine Equipment Directive EC Declaration of Conformity” on page 1-14.

The single unit design with a polyurethane hard foam housing allows the gyrocompass to be installed on any bridge. If required, the operating unit may be installed at a location remote from the compass or an addi-tional remote operating unit may be used.

The unique method of supporting the gyrosphere by means of mere buoyancy ensures North stabilisation during short power failures, e.g., after a three minute loss of power, no more than two degrees of devia-tion may be expected. Once power has been restored, the gyrocompass will return quickly to the correct heading. The combined effects of the twin rotors and the liquid damping system virtually eliminate latitude error.

Heading is measured as a 13-bit absolute value with a digital shaft encoder. The high-speed follow-up system (follow-up speed up to 100°/s) ensures that accurate heading and rate of turn data is provided under all operating conditions.

Integrated monitoring of the supply powers, gyroscope current and the follow-up system ensure secure and trouble-free operation.

NKQ léÉê~íáåÖ=mêáåÅáéäÉ

The north-seeking element used in the NAVIGAT X MK1 system is the gyrosphere, a hermetically sealed unit with a funnel-shaped recess, reaching from the outer skin down to its centre.

Inside the gyrosphere, two mechanically linked gyroscopes are mounted with their spin axes horizontal in a carrying frame. The gyro-scopes are allowed to turn around the vertical, but torsion bands effect a defined rest position, while a mechanical linkage ensures that the result-ant spin vector of the gyros remains stationary relative to the gyro-sphere. This twin gyro arrangement eliminates intercardinal roll error.

Once the gyros have run up to speed, their resultant spin vector, and with it the gyrosphere, settles in the direction of true North.

cáÖìêÉ=NJUW dóêçëéÜÉêÉ

The top of the gyrosphere contains an annular damping trough, half filled with a viscous fluid. The fluid damps azimuthal oscillations of the gyroscope system. The oscillation period is tuned to the Schuler period of 84.4 minutes, so that heading errors during horizontal acceleration due to changes in speed and/or direction are prevented.

The gyrosphere floats in a supporting fluid inside the gyrosphere con-tainer. Because the buoyancy of the gyrosphere is a little greater than its weight, a bearing cup at the bottom of the recess is pressed against the centering pin and keeps the gyrosphere exactly centered in the con-tainer.

In order to make the gyroscope system pendulous, that is, to provide the gravity controlling moment, the gyrosphere is designed so that its cen-tre of gravity lies slightly below the centre of buoyancy.

The gyroscopes are in fact squirrel-cage induction motors, which attain a speed of nearly 20000 rpm at a voltage of 100 VAC @ 337 Hz.

In the Mod. 10/3 container, their supply power is applied through the electrolytically conducting supporting fluid, via the top and bottom con-tacts. In the Mod. 10/2 and Mod. 7/2 containers, the power is applied via the centering pin and the bottom contacts.

A follow-up control circuit keeps the container aligned with the gyro-sphere at all times, thus heading can be derived from the container’s ori-entation.

While systems with the Mod. 10/3 container employ an optical pick off to provide the follow-up control signal, systems with the Mod. 10/2 and Mod. 7/2 containers use a resistance bridge circuit, formed by the con-ducting paths from the contact pins in the container, through the sup-porting fluid and to the equator contact of the gyrosphere.

As a standalone system, the NAVIGAT X MK 1 provides North-speed error corrected true heading as well as rate of turn data.

If a fluxgate sensor, type 4863, or an electronic magnetic compass is installed, the NAVIGAT X MK 1 applies magnetic variation and distrib-utes magnetic compass heading data to external equipment (Transmit-ting Magnet Compass, TMC function).

The heading difference alarm function permits to monitor the difference between the gyrocompass and magnetic compass heading sources.

In case of failure of the gyrocompass, the magnetic compass heading source may be activated to provide an emergency heading reference for repeaters and other peripheral equipment.

The system shown in figure 1-11 below is the standard configuration for a dual NAVIGAT X MK 1 gyrocompass system.

In addition to the two NAVIGAT X MK 1 gyrocompasses, this system comprises the NAVITWIN IV heading management system (HMS) and the Switch-Over Unit Type 4932.

By selecting the active heading source at the NAVITWIN IV, the operator determines which gyrocompasses’ data is distributed via the Switch- Over Unit to external equipment, such as heading control systems, RADAR, compass repeaters etc.

The NAVITWIN’s heading diff. alarm function permits to monitor the dif-ference between any two of the available heading sources. The off head-ing alarm function permits to monitor the difference between the actual heading from the active source and the set heading order, as received from a heading control system or entered manually.

Alarms generated locally by a NAVIGAT gyrocompass are indicated and may be acknowledged at the NAVITWIN IV. In turn, the NAVITWIN IV transmits system-wide operational settings and setup parameters to the NAVIGAT gyrocompasses. The available heading sources, the current source selection and the heading difference alarm threshold (hdg. diff.

threshold) are also indicated at both gyrocompasses.

If a magnetic compass heading source is installed, the NAVITWIN applies magnetic variation and distributes the data to external equip-ment (TMC function). In case of failure of the gyrocompasses, the mag-netic compass heading source may be activated to provide an emergency heading reference for repeaters and other peripheral equip-ment.

The permitted ambient temperature for the operation of the gyrocom-pass system is between - 10° C to + 55° C.

When the ambient temperature at the gyrocompass’ location falls below

- 10° C while the compass is in operation or when the ambient tempera-ture falls below 0° C while the compass is not in operation, the gyro-sphere container must be removed from the compass housing and stored in a place where the ambient temperature will not fall below 0° C.

Always be aware, that in case no storage place is available where the ambient temperature will not fall below 0° C, the gyrosphere must be removed by authorized service personnel from the gyrosphere con-tainer to prevent possible damage by frozen supporting fluid.

`^rqflk Risk of damage/destruction through low temperatures The supporting fluid in the gyrosphere container will start freezing at temperatures below 0° C.

The NAVIGAT X MK 1 must no longer be operated when the ambient tem-perature at the gyrocompass’ location falls below - 10° C while the com-pass is in operation or when the ambient temperature falls below 0° C while the gyrocompass is not in operation.

Always make sure, that the ambient temperature is higher than 0° C respective 10° C. If this is not possible, the gyrosphere container with gyrosphere must be removed from the NAVIGAT X MK 1 and transported to a place with sufficient ambient temperature.

Make sure to remove the gyrosphere from the gyrosphere container if no place with sufficient ambient temperature is available to eliminate dam-age from freezing supporting fluid.

kçíÉ For the service procedure to remove the gyrosphere container from the compass housing see “Removing the Gyrosphere Container from the Compass Housing” on page 5-2.
