Welcome

Welcome to the RS24 User’s Guide. It explains how to mount, install, congure and

use the RS24 system on a vessel.

The System Overview on page 7 describes the different components of the system

and how they work together.

Please read the Important Safety Notes on page 8 before beginning the installation.

The Installing the Sensor Hardware and Software section on page 10 describes

where to mount the RS24 Sensor onto the vessel, and how to connect it. It also

explains how to upgrade the sensor software, if required.

The Conﬁguring the RS24 system on page 22 explains how to congure the system

for your vessel.

The RS24 Dashboard Operation section on page 36 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

Dashboard screen when the system is running, and how to interpret the information.

Further useful information is included in the Serial Numbers and Software Versions

section on page 9, and in the Appendices on page 52.

Introduction1.1

Note: Installation of a RS24 system should be carried out by a suitably qualiﬁed

and competent engineer.

94-0601-C 7

System Overview

The RS24 system is the latest generation of Wärtsilä Guidance Marine’s high

resolution radar. It is designed to provide high levels of situational awareness.

RS24 Sensor

The RS24 system consists of four main parts:

• The RS24 Sensor

• The RS24 Dashboard Software

• The RS24 Service Interface

• Marine Computer

The RS24 sensor is a high speed, high resolution FMCW K-Band dome radar.

K-Band (24GHz) radar has an inherently higher resolution than standard S

or X band navigational radars. It can output radar images both to the RS24

Dashboard and also to third party applications which support the ASTERIX

CAT-240 open data format.

RS24 Dashboard Software

The RS24 Dashboard software is the interface through which the operator can

control the day to day operation of the RS24 Sensor and view the radar image

that it generates.

RS24 Service Interface

The RS24 Service Interface software is the interface to the sensor which allows

a service engineer or advanced user to change the behaviour of the RS24

Sensor. It controls the functions which should not be required for day to day

operation of the radar.

Marine Computer

This is usually mounted on the bridge and runs the RS24 Dashboard software

and RS24 Service interface.

Important Safety Notes

Non-ionising Radiation

Risk of Electric Shock

Lifting the Sensor

The RS24 sensor emits non-ionising radiation with an output

power of 100mW EIRP when transmitting.

This equipment should be treated with the same safety precautions

as other marine radar devices.

Safe distance is 2cm which is inside the physical dome.

Disconnect the mains electricity supply before making or breaking

electrical connections, or removing the radome cover.

CAUTION - DOUBLE POLE/NEUTRAL FUSING.

Isolating the Sensor

It is recommended that a readily accessible disconnect device

should be incorporated external to the equipment.

During installation, the Sensor should be moved to the top of the

ship in its STC (Special to Type Transit Case). The transit case must

be carried using a correctly specied and weight-rated cargo-net.

The transport case handles are not rated or weight tested, and

should not be used as lifting points for this task.

Serial Numbers and Software Versions

Serial Numbers and Software Version Numbers are used to identify the hardware

conguration and product revision of each RS24 Sensor. They will be requested by

Wärtsilä Guidance Marine in the event of an application service or support call to the

company.

Part Numbers and Serial Numbers can be found on the product label xed on the side

of the sensor, left of the connection panel.

Product Labels

The About System pane provides version information about the Dashboard and the

software within the RS24 Sensor. It also contains the Serial Number of the Sensor.

Software Version Information

1. Click on the Advanced button.

2. Click on the About System button.

Alternatively, click F2 or the About System button via the Hotkey tab.
