User manual SIMRAD PI REMOTE ADAPTER SCHEMA REV A

[. . . ] The adapter used to install the PI Remote/Depth sensor is not the same as the adapter used for the standard PI Remote sensor. Daily operation The PI Remote/Depth dual sensor will automatically be switched on once the waterswitch is activated. [. . . ] After startup, the sensor will communicate with the PI Spread sensor to measure the distance between the two trawl doors. When the sensor is not in use, check that the sensor lamp does not flash, as this indicates that the sensor is still active and discharging the batteries. If you operate with Fast update rate, the sensors must be charged approximately every 40 hours. Used with Normal or Slow update rates, the operational life is approximately 80 or 110 hours respectively. Note: Charging sensors at sub-zero temperatures can create explosive gasses. Simrad assumes no liability for the improper charging of sensors or the use of chargers not specified in Simrad's sensor charging documentation. The two rubber inserts provided at the bottom of each sensor adapter must not be replaced with any other types or designs. (F) Visual alarm (G) Sensor transmission indicator (H) Interference warning Mounting and installation principles The PI Remote/Depth sensor and the Spread (or Spread/Depth) sensors must be mounted in dedicated adapters on each trawl door. Detailed information on how to install the adapters are provided with the installation kit. The PI Remote/Depth sensor is mounted on the starboard door, while the PI Spread (or PI Spread/Depth) sensor is mounted on the port door. Note: It is essential that there is a clear line of sight between the two transverse communication "eyes" (one on each sensor). It is also important that both the PI Spread (or Spread/Depth) and the PI Remote/ Depth sensors have a clear line of sight to the hydrophone on the vessel. Sacrificial water switch The water switch on your sensor is a sacrificial brass screw. It must be checked every month, and whenever required due to wear and tear, it must be replaced. C E F D A B (CD012200S) (A) The PI Spread (or Spread/Depth) sensor is mounted on the port door. [. . . ] It must be checked every month, and whenever required due to wear and tear, it must be replaced. C E F D A B (CD012200S) (A) The PI Spread (or Spread/Depth) sensor is mounted on the port door. (C) Communication link between the PI Spread (or Spread/Depth) sensor and the PI hydrophone, provides distance information. (D) Communication link between the PI Remote/Depth sensor and the PI hydrophone, provides depth information. [. . . ]
