What is Absolute Signature (AS)?
It is well known that laser Position Reference Sensors (PRS) cannot always distinguish How does AS work?
between different types of reflector targets. Standard laser PRS, such as CyScan Mk4,

Where to Mount the Sensor
Sensor Mounting Locations

The CyScan system is designed for permanent or semi-permanent installation on-board a
vessel. Often, a custom-fabricated plinth is used to provide the optimum height and location
for mounting the CyScan sensor.
On all types of vessel the sensor should be mounted:
• With an unobstructed view in the expected direction of the target structure or vessel.
• Well above sea level to prevent swamping or immersion.
• On a flat, rigid, horizontal surface able to support 30kg and receive 4x M8 fixing bolts.
• Allowing for easy access to the connector board and Sensor Information Display.
• Clear of VHF emergency band antennae, S-band and X-band ship’s radars (5 meter
minimum horizontal separation from RF sources (VHF, S and X band) and ideally vertical
separation of one deck ).
• Clear of likely emissions from exhausts or other particulate sources to reduce the need
for cleaning the optical windows.
• The field of view off the vessel should be clear of retroreflective material
Exhaust emissions contain particulates which will degrade the optics.
The sensor should be mounted with the Access Cover (see page 9). Any deviation from the
centre-line alignment must be corrected in the CyScan Service Interface.
A typical mounting position is above the wheelhouse for a vessel with a

superstructure like that of a platform supply vessel.

Cable Specifications
The CyScan system is usually supplied without the cables that are necessary to connect the sensor to the DP system and the Client Software computer(s). Guidance recommends that
flexible multicore cables are used in all applications. Cables should meet the requirements of IEC 60228 Class 2 or Class 5. Cables must be supplied and fitted by the installer to match the
particular requirements for each vessel. All cables should be properly secured.
The cable glands will fit cables from 7-13mm diameter.
All cables should be

• External marine standard including UV and chemical resistance
• 500V rated voltage
• Diameter 7-13mm
• Operate between -40°C to +80°C.
Note: Data cables should not be run across or next to power cables to avoid signal
interference problems.

UPS Specifications
The power supply to the CyScan sensor and the computer(s) running the CyScan Service
Interface and Dashboard must come directly from a Un-interruptible Power Supply (UPS),
which will also act as the power disconnection point.
The CyScan system comprises the following components, the UPS system used must meet
these minimum specifications:
CyScan AS Sensor Type 3 Marine Processor Power Adaptor

• The UPS must be Marine Type Approved
• Voltage Range = 100-240V
• Input Power = 130W † • Frequency Range = 50-60Hz
• Voltage Range = 85-264 VAC • Peak Current draw = 1.8A

• Peak Current draw at 110V = 1.6A
Hatteland Panel PC
• Nominal Current draw at 110V = 1.2A RMS
• Voltage Range = 115 & 230V
• Nominal Currentdrawdrawat 230V
Peak Current = 0.7A
• Frequency Range = 50-60Hz
• at 230V = 0.6A RMS

The CyScan UPS should be able to run on back-up power for at least the same duration as
that specified for the DP System UPS.
The power cable to the CyScan Sensor must be rated to withstand the maximum current
output of the UPS.
† Worst case power consumption when operated at -25°C
The specifications given above apply when the UPS is connected to a CyScan
system only.

Vessel Parameters
The Vessel tab allows you to define the dimensions of the vessel outline on the BEV, the name
of the vessel and other items as follows:
• Vessel Name: The name of your ship (displayed on the Dashboard).
• Vessel Length: The distance from the bow to the stern of the vessel in metres.
• Vessel Breadth: The width or beam of the vessel in metres.
• Bow Offset: Distance from the centre of the CyScan sensor to the vessel’s bow, in
metres.
• Starboard Offset: Distance from the centre of the CyScan sensor to the vessel’s starboard
side, in metres.
• Bearing Offset: This should be 0° if the CyScan sensor is mounted exactly parallel to the
vessel’s centre-line running from bow to stern. If the sensor is at an angle to the centre-line,
enter a Bearing Offset to compensate for this (see Bearing Offset on page 33).
• Default Vessel Orientation: The default direction of the vessel bow as displayed on the
Bird’s Eye View of the Dashboard. Changing this setting rotates the whole BEV but does
not affect the data sent to the DP system. Note that this setting can be overridden for the

Static Blanking Zones
Blanking Zones are used to mask segments of the scan rotation that are obscured by the
vessel’s superstructure. While the scanner passes through a blanking zone, the laser is
switched off to prevent unwanted reflections from interfering with the target data.
Two types of blanking zone can be configured on a CyScan system:
• Dynamic Blanking Zone – This is a single sector that can be amended in the
Dashboard when the system is running, even during target tracking. See the Blanking
Zone section of the CyScan Operator’s Guide for further information.
• Static Blanking Zones – Up to four additional blanking zones may also be configured.
This is done using the CyScan Service Interface and the static blanking zones cannot be
amended via the Dashboard.
Viewing the Static Blanking Zones

The Blanking tab of the CyScan Service Interface displays each of the configured zones and
their Start and Stop angles in degrees. In order to distinguish one zone from another, clicking
on a Show Zone n button will cause the corresponding zone to be displayed in a different
colour, along with the button itself.

Positioning and Mounting Targets
Target Installation
Key to the operation of the CyScan system is the correct installation of targets. Please follow
the guidelines given below when installing targets on the structure/vessel.
VI

Once the targets are installed, their relative positions can be automatically surveyed by the
system.
GLE LE 45 o
Installation Tips 0 VI
ANEWAB
• Targets should be placed in positions where the sensor can see them while the vessel
is within the expected working area. Consider vertical position as well as horizontal. The
GLE LE
targets should ideally be mounted at the same height as the sensor.
• Cylindrical targets can be viewed from any angle equally well.

Optimum Spacing for Multiple Targets
• Targets should be positioned with unequal spacing between them – this helps the
system to distinguish between specific targets. For example, with a typical mooring
distance of 40-80m using three targets, suitable spacing between the targets would be
10m and 20m – giving a total spread of 30m.
• Targets should be placed no closer than 5m together. Ideally they should be placed 10m
or more apart.

Kongsberg (Custom)
The Kongsberg Custom DP string adopts NMEA0183 conventions and has a length of 40 characters. When multi-target tracking, multiple messages are emitted per rotor revolution:
one for each target in the tracking group.
$PGNKM,II,RRRR.R,ZR.ZR,BBB.B,ZB.ZB,HHHH*CC<LF><CR>
Where:
• $PGNKM Proprietary header 6 chars
• IIRRRR.R

• * Status (16 bit code) 4 chars
• CC Delimiter 1 char
• <LF> Checksum 2 chars
• <CR> Line feed (0x0d) 1 char
• Carriage return (0x0a) 1 char
†The Range and Bearing Standard Deviations are calculated from the set of measurements available in the
current rev and do not include data from previous revs. A value of 0.0 may indicate that not enough laser pulses
were returned from the target to enable a meaningful standard deviation calculation to be performed.
‡ Bearing is clockwise from nominal bow (which depends on correct sensor installation and configuration of the
Bow/Stern switch).

Upgrading the Sensor Software Via the Remote Installer
Where possible any upgrades to the sensor software should be done via the Remote
Installer. This utility takes the form of a CyScan.Installer.Remote.exe file supplied by
Guidance Marine.
To Upgrade the Sensor Software via the Remote Installer:

1. Ensure that the CyScan Service Interface and Dashboard applications are not running.
2. Locate the file CyScan.Installer.Remote.exe on the USB memory stick on which the
CyScan software was supplied.
3. Double-click on the CyScan.Installer.Remote.exe file.
4. In the CyScan Installation Configuration window, select the Connection Type
(“Ethernet” or “Serial”) from the drop-down list.
5. Either enter the sensor’s IP Address (for an Ethernet connection)
Or enter the Serial Port of your client that is connected to the sensor.
6. Click on the OK button. A stream of progress messages is then output, along with any
error messages that may be applicable.
7. After “Installation Complete” is displayed, click on the OK button.
l 56
Upgrading the Sensor Software Directly
If it is not possible to use the Remote Installer you can upgrade the sensor software directly
using a USB upgrade key. !
Note: The USB upgrade key should be formatted to a FAT or FAT32 file system.
You cannot use a USB upgrade key that is formatted to NTFS.
To Upgrade the Sensor Software Directly:

Before you begin the upgrade process you will need to ensure all of the upgrade files are
saved into a subdirectory named ‘upgrade’ in the root directory of a USB upgrade key.
Obtain the upgrade software from Guidance Marine Customer Services. This will come as a
.zip file. Navigate to \USB\Application inside this zip file. Copy the Upgrade directory to the
root, or top level, directory of the USB stick.
1. Insert the upgrade key into USB0.
2. Power cycle the sensor.
3. The upgrade will then begin and the system will transfer all the required files to the
sensor. The Sensor Information Display will output progress messages and any error
messages that may be applicable.
4. When the upgrade is complete the Sensor Information Display will prompt you to
remove the USB key and power cycle the sensor.
5. After the sensor restarts it will go into normal running mode.

Remote Diagnostics
An Ethernet CyScan system provides a remote diagnostics facility. The sensor autonomously emits diagnostic telegrams triggered by internal events and/or at configured periods.
Remote Diagnostic Protocol

The diagnostic telegram is of variable length, up to a maximum of 1000 characters. Its format is as follows:
\s:NNNNNNNNNN*KK\$PGNMD,T,YYYY˽YY˽YY,HH˽HH˽HH.HHH,[D]D=[V]V*CC<CR><LF>
Where “\”, “s:”, “PGNMD”, and “=” are fixed values NNNNNNNNNN Sensor Serial number 10 alphanumeric characters
“*”,“$”, and “,” are Reserved Field Delimiters KK First Checksum Checksum with first “\” as the start character
“˽” denotes a space character (ASCII 0x20) T Sensor Type “C” representing CyScan
“.” is a fixed value used within the Real-time Clock Time field YYYY˽YY˽YY Date Numeric characters divided by spaces representing Year,
Month, and Day; in this order
“<CR>” denotes a carriage return character (ASCII 0x0D) HH˽HH˽HH.HHH Real-time Clock Time Numeric characters divided by spaces and decimal point
“<LF>” denotes a line feed character (ASCII 0x0A) representing Hours, Minutes, Seconds, and Milliseconds;
in this order
[D]D Diagnostic Telegram Identifier 1 to 8 alphanumeric or underscore characters
[V]V Diagnostic Telegram Value 1 to 936 alphanumeric characters that are not Reserved
Field Delimiters
CC Second Checksum Checksum with “$”as the start character
Identifier Description Values

The following identifiers are currently supported: INIT – System initialising
READY –System Ready
