STEP 9
INSTALLING THE ROVNAV 6 AND REMOTE TRANSDUCER ONTO
AN ROV
Make sure the ROVNav 6 is acoustically and electrically isolated from the ROV body.
The Remote Transducer Cable (312-8044) is limited to 4 metres in length. Position the
Remote Transducer so it is no more than 4 metres and has a clear line-of-sight view of the
target transponder.
Make sure the battery is connected prior to using the ROVNav 6 for acoustic commands,
this reduces the power requirements from the ROV MUX.
INSTALLING THE EQUIPMENT
Do not attach the Remote Transducer to an extendable ram on an ROV if the
extended ram and location of the ROVNav 6 is over 4 metres.
When securing the Remote Transducer to an extendable ram, make sure the
cable does not become trapped when the ram is retracted.
Do not allow cables to vibrate on the outside of the hull where flow may make
the cable strum and fatigue.
The TCVR Comms & Power 8-Way Cable (312-8017), and Remote Transducer
Cable (312-8044) are flexible, but the bend radius should not be too tight. Do not
kink the cables.
