STEP 2. ACTIVATING THE PRODUCT LICENSE (ONLY FOR UPGRADE CASE)

As soon as ROVINS is powered up it starts its alignment phase starting with the manually input position stored into RO-

VINS PROM. It is required that a valid initial position is input manually (see Step 3) or is given by the GPS. The alignment 

sequence is detailed in Step 4.

Launching the WEB-based User Interface

Required environment :

• 

The  workstation must be equipped with one of the following Web browser:

 

Mozilla Firefox version 3.5 and higher

 

Chrome version 4 and higher

 

Safari version 4 and higher

 

Opera version 10 and higher

 

Internet Explorer version 7 and higher

 

Flash Player version 10 (and higher) must be installed on the workstation to visualize the compass

 

For the data logging: Java Runtime Environment 1.6 (and higher)

They can be installed on your workstation from the provided IXSEA CD-ROM.

The communication with the workstation is performed directly through the Ethernet link.

ROVINS 

Web-based User Interface is then launched from the WEB browser hosted on the workstation. Its URL address 

is 192.168.36.1xx, xx being the two last numbers of the ROVINS serial number:

The Control Pages opens:

During the first seconds the IXSEA logo is flashing gray/blue indicating that the 

Web-based User Interface is loading the 

internal configuration of ROVINS. Then the logo turns blue, the alignment sequence of ROVINS begins.
