It explains how to use the RangeGuard system once it has been fully installed. For instructions on how to install RangeGuard onto a vessel, refer to 94-0448-4 RangeGuard Installer’s Guide. The System Overview on page 6 describes the different components of the system and how they work together. The Getting Started section on page 8 explains how to get the system up and running and how to shut it down again. It also details what you will see on the RangeGuard Display screen when the system is running, and how to interpret the information. The Measurement Algorithms section on page 14 describes the different ways that RangeGuard can measure the distance to an object. Further useful information is included in the Appendices section on page 21. l 6 The RangeGuard system provides object detection and distance measurements using continuous wave radar sensors. These operate on a licence-exempt Short Range Device basis at 24.15GHz. The system comprises a control box, up to four sensors and a graphical user interface which can be accessed from any device connected to the same network. The sensors are typically positioned around the outside of a vessel and connected to the control box via standard Cat5e Ethernet cable up to a maximum length of 100m; longer cables can be made using cable with additional cores. The sensors have a fixed elevation beam width of 11° (+/-5.5°) and two options of azimuth beam: 11° (Narrow Beam) and 90° (Wide Beam). Each sensor measures the range to the nearest obstacle by default or to a selected obstacle if preferred. System Overview RangeGuard Display - the user interface - is run from a web browser. It is recommended that either the user interface supplied by Guidance Marine or else Google Chrome are used. Other browsers will work but without guarantee. Once the control box has been connected to the network, type its IP address (default 192.168.2.231) into the web browser address bar and the user interface will appear in Bird’s Eye View. l 7 Getting Started This section describes RangeGuard Display and basic use of the system. It contains the following pages: • Start Up and Shut Down (Page 8) • Screen Layout (Page 9) • Display Options (Page 12) l 8 Start Up and Shut Down Start Up To Open RangeGuard Display 1. Ensure that the control box is powered on. 2. Double-click on the RangeGuard icon. (Or run the RangeGuard Display application from: Start > All Programs > Guidance RangeGuard > RangeGuard Display). 3. The display will appear in full screen mode, with the Bird’s Eye View open. Shut Down To Close RangeGuard Display Click on the X button in the top right corner of the…
