functionality provided by the SU90 system can be accessed using the trackball on the
Operating Panel and the menu system shown in the display presentation.
The SU90 system supports three different operating panels. These are referred to as
"Mk1", "Mk2" and "Mk3".
• The Mk1 Operating Panel is connected to the Processor Unit with three cables. The
dual interface cable provides power and serial communication. The USB interface
cable is used to read the trackball movements. The Processor Unit must be fitted with
a custom made interface board. A small commercial power supply is used to provide
power to the Operating Panel. (The Mk1 Operating Panel is no longer provided with
new sonars. This information is provided for legacy reasons.)
• The Mk2 Operating Panel is connected to the Processor Unit using an Ethernet cable.
The Operating Panel is provided with a built-in power supply.
• The Mk3 Operating Panel is connected to the Processor Unit with a USB cable. A
dedicated power supply unit is not required.
Select which operating panel to use. Assign functionality as permitted by each type
of operating panel.
