2.2 Physical Installation
WARNING
You must take precautions to secure the SDC when you store and operate this
unit in its transit case. Protect personnel from the hazard of falling equipment and
protect the unit from damage when the survey vessel moves due to the action of
waves. Install cables away from walkways and secure them so they do not
present a hazard to personnel.
CAUTION
To avoid potential damage to the SDC, make certain it has sufficient ventilation to
dissipate the heat that it generates during normal operation. You might damage
the SDC if you allow it to overheat. To operate the SDC inside its transit case,

2 – Installation
2-2 © Teledyne Limited DPN 060221 Issue 1.3
release and remove the lid of the transit case to allow effective ventilation and
heat dissipation.
If you mount the SDC in a 19” instrument rack you must allow a minimum 30mm
clearance between the top of the SDC and any other equipment mounted directly
above it in the rack. Also, allow a minimum 100mm space between the SDC rear
panel and the rear of the instrument rack to allow for connectors and cable
routing.
NOTE
Throughout this manual any references to the SDC refer to the SDC10. Earlier
versions may not support the same feature set.
Although the SDC uses solid state electronics, the hard-disk drive and parts of the display panel are
susceptible to damage through shock or sustained vibration. You must therefore exercise some care
when you select a suitable location for this unit:
❐Install the SDC where you have easy access to the controls. Choose a position for the SDC
that allows you to see the screen easily while you operate the ROV.
❐If you do not mount the SDC in an instrument rack, use the original SDC transit case to provide
shock protection for the unit. Secure the transit case so that it cannot slide or fall with move-
ments of the vessel.
❐Make certain there is sufficient ventilation space above the SDC to remove the heat that it gen-
erates during normal operation. If necessary, use an electric fan to provide additional ventila-
tion.
❐Do not subject the SDC to extremes of temperature or humidity, or to severe vibration or elec-
trical noise. Never allow the SDC to become wet.
2.2.1 Operation from transit case
1. Open the four latches located on the front and rear of the transit case.
2. Remove the transit case lid and set aside.
3. Secure the transit case base so that it cannot slide or fall with movements of the vessel.
2.2.2 Installation in a 19” rack
1. Open the four latches located on the front and rear of the transit case.
2. Remove the transit case lid and set aside.
3. Remove the 8 x fixing screws securing the SDC to the angled brackets fixed to the transit case
base.
4. Fit SDC into rack and secure with fixing screws.

2.3.1 Power Connection
Connect AC electrical power to the SDC through the 3-core electrical supply cable and standard 3-pin
IEC electrical inlet. The SDC has an auto ranging power supply unit that configures itself automatically
to use an electrical supply in its acceptable range 85 to 264V AC (47 to 63Hz).
2.3.2 Communication ports
The SDC has four serial communication ports that it uses to communicate with external and peripheral
equipment. The standard assignations for these ports are as follows. You may change these if
necessary.
❐COM1 is used to pass serial communications between the SEP and the SDC.
❐COM2 on the rear connector panel of the SDC is used to accept serial data from any compati-
ble altimeter that is not connected directly to the SEP.
❐COM3 (labelled ‘LOG O/P (COM3)’ on the rear connector panel of the SDC) is used to connect
the SDC to a separate user-supplied data logger. You should use a data logger to record the
survey measurements acquired by the SDC10.
❐COM5 is used by the SDC to communicate with the video overlay card. This port is not availa-
ble on the Rear Comms Enclosure but is internally connected to the video overlay interface
card.
DeepView for Windows allows you to set the communication parameters for each of the serial ports.
Choose settings that are appropriate for the connected equipment – refer to the technical manuals of
the attached equipment if necessary. Note that the standard communication parameters for COM1, the
communication link between the SDC and the SEP are set to operate at 9600 baud using eight data
bits, two stop bits and no parity.
NOTE
The update rate for your System will reduce if you set a lower baud rate for the
SDC to SEP communication link. You should consider reducing the baud rate for
this link only if you experience persistent communication problems caused by an
umbilical cable of poor quality. Ideally, in these circumstances you should swap to
using an umbilical cable of good quality instead.

DPN 060221 Issue 1.3 © Teledyne Limited 2- 5
2.3.3 Communication link to Subsea Electronics Pod (SEP)
Use the SDC port – ‘COMMS FROM SEP’
The standard communication link between the SDC and the subsea installation uses RS232. This is a
3-wire link suitable only for communication over distances up to 15 metres. You may use this method to
transmit data to the survey control room using the ROV multiplexer and an existing data link to the
survey control room.
There are two further methods that you may use to establish successful communication between the
SDC and the subsea installation.
NOTE
Not all Teledyne TSS detection products support current-loop communication.
Check the user manual for the system to confirm. If you intend to use current-loop
communication you will need to reconfigure the SDC and the SEP to use this com-
munication method. See section 2.3.7 for instructions.
❐2-wire 20mA digital current-loop
If the umbilical cable is of good quality, experience has shown that you may use this communica-
tion method successfully through transmission distances up to 1000 metres.
2-wire 20mA digital current-loop is carried on a twisted pair within the ROV umbilical. To avoid pos-
sible communication conflicts, the SDC acts as the ‘Master’ and the SEP acts as the ‘Slave’ in this
link.
To ensure reliable communications through the umbilical, select a twisted pair that has the follow-
ing characteristics:
❐4-wire 20mA digital current-loop
You should select this method when the umbilical link to the ROV is longer than 1000 metres, or
where you cannot establish reliable communication using a 2-wire current-loop.
After you have made the necessary changes in the SEP and the SDC, perform a simple communi-
cation check.
The communication parameters used between the SDC and the SEP are 9600 baud with 8 data bits, 2
stop bits and no parity. These cannot be changed by the user.
Table 2-1: Ideal twisted pair characteristics for successful communication
Twisted pair characteristic Ideal value
Overall resistance Less than 200
Core size 0.5 to 1.0mm2
Inter-conductor capacitance Less than 100pF per metre

2 – Installation
2-6 © Teledyne Limited DPN 060221 Issue 1.3
NOTE
These communication settings are valid even when you use 2-wire or 4-wire cur-
rent-loop communications. This is because the SDC converts between current-
loop and RS232 communications through a special converter card. All communi-
cation between the SDC and the subsea installation passes through the relevant
SDC serial port.
Communication lines between the SDC and the subsea components are opto-isolated at both ends.
The following tables show the connections that you must make between the SEP and the SDC for each
of the three communication methods.
To use current-loop communications you must reserve either one or two conductor pairs in the ROV
umbilical for the exclusive use of the subsea installation. The system includes a cable that you should
use to connect the ‘COMMS FROM SEP’ port on the SDC to the twisted pairs in the ROV umbilical.
The cable has a 15-way D-type connector for connection to the SDC ‘COMMS FROM SEP’ port, and
open tails for connection to the umbilical at a junction box.
When you connect the communication cable to the SDC, it is internally linked to COM1 of the Panel
PC. Hence, if you use RS232 communications through an existing multiplexed link, you will still need to

connect the cable from your de-multiplexer to the SDC ‘COMMS FROM SEP’ at the 15-way D-type
connector.
2.3.4 Subsea Altimeter
Use the SDC port ‘COM2’
Third party altimeters must be connected directly to the SDC rather than the SEP. To send their signals
through the umbilical, you must add them to the ROV multiplex unit and extract them at the surface.
You must also provide a separate power supply for the altimeter.
Make the following provisions if you intend to use one of the compatible alternative altimeters with the
SDC:
❐Connect the altimeter to an available serial port. This will normally be the ‘COM2’ port. Note
that, because the altimeters use RS232 communications, they cannot transmit their signals
farther than approximately 15 metres. Therefore, you must add the altimeter signals to the
ROV multiplexer and then extract them at the surface. You must then convert the signals to
RS232 for application to the SDC.
❐Provide a separate power supply to drive the altimeter.
Refer to the manual supplied by the altimeter manufacturer for relevant connection details.
Connect the RS232 altimeter signals to the SDC through the 9-way D-type male serial communication
port labelled ‘COM2’ on the rear comms module of the SDC. The pin designations for the 9-way D-type
ports are as follows:
2.3.5 Interface to Data Logger
Use the SDC port ‘COM3 (EXT O/P)’
During normal survey operations, the subsea hardware acquires data at a rate of up to 1MB per hour.
You should arrange to record the official survey log on a suitable data logger.
The system can also create a logged record internally on the SDC hard disk. Data stored using the
internal logging facility does not possess the same format as that transmitted to the external data
logger and should not be used as the primary survey log. Internal logging allows sections of the survey
to be recorded and replayed subsequently using the graphical display facilities of the SDC. External
logging files cannot be replayed through the SDC in this way.

Make a connection between the SDC and an external data logger using the 9-way D-type ‘COM3 (EXT
O/P)’ port on the Panel PC rear comms module. The pin designations for this port are as follows:
2.3.6 Interface to Video
Use the SDC ports ‘CV IN’ and ‘CV OUT’ or ‘S-VIDEO IN’ and ‘S-VIDEO OUT’
1. Video input – Use appropriate input port for your format (COLOUR CV IN or S-VIDEO IN)
These are clearly marked on the SDC comms module. The SDC accepts video input in PAL or
NTSC format from a camera mounted on the ROV. Apply the video signal to the SDC through
the appropriate video input port. CV cables (dual phono to phono) and a pair of BNC to phono
adapters are supplied to assist video connection with the SDC10.
NOTE
You cannot display the video channel on the SDC screen.
The SDC mixes video images from the subsea camera with graphical information generated by the
SEP. You may view the composite image through the appropriate video output port.
2. Video output – Use appropriate output port for your format (COLOUR CV OUT or S-VIDEO
OUT). The format of the SDC video output signal will match that of the input video signal. That
is if your input is PAL, then the output will be PAL. Similarly if your input is NTSC then the out-
put will be NTSC. Further the video output will reflect the specific connections used i.e if the
video input is monochrome CV, the output will be monochrome CV and will be provided via the
‘MONO CV O/P’ port (similarly colour CV input will provide via the ‘COLOUR CV O/P’, and S-
Video output will be provided via the ‘S-VIDEO O/P’).
You may connect this signal to a standard video monitor using 75 screened cable. The output
can drive a single monitor or multiple monitors if you add a suitable video drive amplifier.
2.3.7 Interface to analogue outputs
2.3.7.1 Analogue output overview
The analogue output operates directly from the DeepView for Windows external output. The external
output (COM3) is hard-wired to the analogue PCB input via a bespoke cable loom. This cable should
not be removed or modified without contacting Teledyne Limited. If the external output is disabled via
DeepView, the analogue output will not provide any outputs.
Three analogue outputs are provided at the BNC connectors located on the external comms enclosure.
Each output varies in amplitude and polarity with the lateral offset of the target. The CH1, CH2 and
Quality BNC connectors represent unqualified data, qualified data and quality flag where the qualified
data, (CH2), is gated by the quality flag.

2.3.7.2 Analogue output DIP switch settings
The analogue output is configurable via DIP switches located on the underside of the comms
enclosure facing the rear of the SDC. These switches can only be accessed by removing the rear
comms enclosure. It is recommended this task is carried-out before the SDC is installed.
The following steps outline how to correctly remove the comms enclosure:
NOTE
The external comms enclosure has connections from the panel PC routed through
the underside of the enclosure. Take care removing the enclosure from the panel
PC mounts ensuring these connections are not damaged.
1. Remove the transit case lid using the 4 x fixings provided.
2. Remove the 8 x fixings from the SDC attaching it to the angled brackets secured to the transit
case base.
3. Carefully remove the SDC from the angled brackets.
4. Remove the 4 x fixings attaching the rear enclosure to the panel PC.

3 Operating Software
NOTE
The DeepView for Windows software application is used with all Teledyne TSS
detection systems.
The SDC has DeepView for Windows pre-installed and configured to start automatically when it is
powered on. The SDC is not provided with a keyboard or mouse as it has a touch-screen display. A
short-cut to a software keyboard is provided that can be used to select commands and options from
within DeepView for Windows. Although you may access all the commands using the SDC’s touch-
screen, you may prefer to operate the software using either a mouse or keyboard. These can be
connected to the SDC using the USB ports located on the front panel.
3.1 Initialisation
NOTE
It is usually better to power-on the subsea installation before you power-on the
SDC. This ensures data is available to the SDC and will allow any configuration
settings to be initialised.
NOTE
The SDC has a power-switch located on the underside of the panel PC. This
switch is set to ON by default and should not need to be accessed by the user dur-
ing normal operation. However, it is important to be aware of this switch if the SDC
is removed from the transit case. When installed at the required location, always
ensure this switch is set to ON. If this switch is set to OFF and power is applied,
the rear comms enclosure will receive power but the panel PC will not power-up.
This can be identified by the rear comms enclosure fan being activated but the
panel PC remaining inactive.
After you apply power to the SDC, it will launch Microsoft Windows and DeepView for Windows
automatically after it has completed the initialisation sequence.
Provided the software launches successfully, you will see the DeepView for Windows opening splash
screen. DeepView for Windows will then search for an initialisation file on the SDC that includes details
of the previous operating configuration. If the software finds the initialisation file and the SDC receives
data packets from the SEP that are compatible with that file, then it will begin to operate using the
same configuration. Otherwise, DeepView for Windows will launch the System Configuration Wizard
that allows you to define the operating parameters used by the System.
3.2 System Recovery Procedure
If the SDC fails to operate correctly try the following methods to resolve the problem.
❐Close the DeepView for Windows software application and restart it.

3 – Operating Software
3-2 © Teledyne Limited DPN 060221 Issue 1.3
❐If closing and restarting DeepView for Windows does not resolve the problem, close down the
SDC and restart it by disconnecting and then reconnecting power, or by pressing the power
reset On-Off button.
❐If closing and restarting the SDC does not resolve the problem, reinstall the DeepView for Win-
dows software (see section 3.3).
❐If reinstalling DeepView for Windows does not resolve the problem, you may consider using
the System Recovery Procedure to perform a factory reinstall of the Microsoft Windows 7 oper-
ating system, followed by reinstalling the DeepView for Windows software.
CAUTION
❐The System Recovery Procedure deletes all existing software from the SDC
and reinstalls the Windows 7 operating system only. You will need to reinstall
DeepView for Windows and any other software you have installed on the
SDC.
❐The System Recovery Procedure deletes all existing data files, such as log
files, from the SDC, and these files cannot be recovered. Back up your data
files to external media before you carry out this procedure.
3.2.1 Required equipment
To perform the System Recovery Procedure you need:
❐The SDC recovery USB drive.
❐A USB Keyboard (not supplied).
3.2.2 Recovery procedure steps
Make sure you have backed up all your data files to external media before you carry out this
procedure.
1. Shut down the SDC.
2. Remove the USB port dust cover caps on the front of the panel PC and attach the SDC10
recovery USB drive and a USB keyboard.
3. Hold down the F11 key on the keyboard and switch on the SDC. If the unit does not restart
automatically press the Power On-Off button located on the underside of the base of the panel
PC (Figure 3-4).
NOTE
The Power On-Off button is not easily accessible when the panel PC is being
operated from its transit case.
