1.4.1 Installing the connection unit
NOTE: Please see drawing 102 D 885.HP005 for detailed dimenion data.
The connection Unit should preferably be bulkhead--mounted. The distances between
mounting screws can be taken either from the dimensional drawing or from the connec-
tion unit itself.
The connection unit is mounted by fitting 4 screws through the recesses provided.
5 mm Æ wood screws should be used to fasten the unit onto wood, the length of screw
should be chosen to suit the thickness of the base.
M5 screws should be used to fasten the unit onto metal, the length of screw will depend
on the thread length in the base.

1.4.2.1 Mounting the rudder angle transmission system
NOTE: Please see dimensional drawing 101 C 528.HP005 for detailed

dimension data.
Depending on the amount of space available on board and the working range of the rud-
der, one of two types of transmission can be selected.
(1) Linkage transmission

With this type of transmission the appropriately adjusted flat steel piece supplied
with the unit must be mounted to the rudder spindle (if not already present) in ac-
cordance with the dimensional drawing.
The transmission ratio is 1 : 1 and can be configured for operating angles of 0 to ±
45°. The drive shaft consists of a driving lever, two ball and socket joints and a
connection threaded round bar.
Once the driving rod has been carefully adjusted, the threaded round bar between
the two ball and socket joints should be shortened to the required length.
Systems withup to a maximum of two feedback units will

therefore require two driving rods.
After fitting, transmission should not be endangered from
loose objects in the area of the lever.
All acbles situated in the action range of the lever must be
fastened down.

Autopilot NP2035
(2) Chain drive
(Refer to dimensional drawing 101--528.HP005)

For rudder angles of max. +90° , the drive of the feedback unit should be via chain
wheels and chain.
The transmission ratio from chain drive is 2 : 1.
The tapholes (e.g. M6, depth 20mm) required for fastening the chain wheel to the
rudder stock are to be centered on the plane surface of the rudder stock. Then the
chain wheel is to be screwed on and to be pinned by means of cylindrical pins. To
ensure automatic chain tension, a chain tightener is to be mounted and to be pla-
ced in accordance with space conditions (chain tightener included in the scope of
delivery).
NOTE: For systems of 2 feedback units, two chain wheels -- arranged in

parallel -- are to be centered and screwed on the plane surface of
the rudder stock, and pinned.

1.6 Setting Parameter specific to the ship
The Autopilot NP2035 is supplied with certain ship-specific pre-configured nauti-

cal parameter values that are necessary for the system to operate.These
parameters can be adapted or changed to suit the layout of the specific system.
Note:In principle it is necessary to configure ship-specific parameters only when

putting the system into operation for the first time, or when extending the system
(for example, after an option has been added).

Below mentioned sequence has to be followed

1. Adjusting of the rudder--feedback Circuit (Offset and Scale) by potentiometers.
If the rudder does not follow the ruddercommand, change the polarity of the feedback
supply voltage from L1.32 to L1.35.
If the rudder moves to the opposite side, change the starboard/port cable connections
(see connection diagram, section 1.6.5.1)
2. Adjusting of the rudder slack and the rudder--overshoot D--Return (if necesary).
3. After adjustment the cable link between L1.10 and L1.12 has to be removed or
FU Set up must be deselected.

1.6.2.3 Adjustment of Rud Slack (Limits/Values).

Single Pump operation
Activate key: Limits/Value .
Rud Slack (Default--Setting=1°) decrease until the rudder starts to hunt.
Increase this set value until the rudder is to stabilised.
Set nominal value to 10° (--10° ) and let the rudder run to 0° .
Continue to optimize Rud Slack if necessary. After optimized adjustment of
Rud Slack below mentioned adjustment have to be repeated:
-- Offset value with potentiometer R149
-- RuderScale with potentiometer R154
If the rudder runs over the nominal value, there is the possibility to switch off the rudder
by D--Return 1 (see section 1.6.2.4) before it reaches the nominal value.
1.6.2.4 D--Return Adjustment

Activate key Limits/Values.
With this parameter (D--Return) it is possible to create a rudder--lead.
This rudder--lead switches off the rudder--control before the nominal value is achieved.
The D--Return--value has to be set in such a manner, that an overshoot of the rudder
over the nominal value is prevented.
Possible settings are 0 to 16.
Setting 0 means that the D--Return is switched off, 10 is the maximum setting.
Has to be checked!!!
In case of troubles on the feedback--signal (50Hz) the D--Return value has to be redu-
ced or set to 0 otherwise there will be a multilple valve--activation.
The safety of the valve--control has highest priority.
The respective switching--pulses are monitored as LED--control--signals at the I/O--PCB.

1.6.2.5 Adjustment of double--pump operation

(Switch on pump 2)
Because the rudder--moving--speed is duplicated with 2 pumps, the rudder slack should
be adapted to fast rudder operation.
Rud Slack 2 (Default = 1° )
This adjustment procedure has to be performed according to section 1.6.2.3.
Scale and offset setting should not be changed.
D--Return 2 (Default = 0°)
Because of the higher rudder--moving--speed there may be a requirement to set another
D--Return.
This procedure has to be performed according to section 1.6.2.4.
1.6.2.6 Offset Adjustment of the analog Nominal--rudder lines
Activate key Limits/Value.

Select parameter Offs. Ana 1.
Measure the volatge at the analog output L1.1 L1.2 while the rudder
position is 0.
The offset value can be compensated stepwise (depending on polarity + or --) within a
set range of 0...+/-- 200.
Select parameter Offs. Ana 2
Measure the volatge at the analog output L1.4 L1.5 while the rudder

1.6.2.7 Adjustment of the Rudder 1 Feedback Input
If the feedback input receives its signal from a external Follow--Up amplifier or from a
Rudder--position amplifier, than an offset and scale adjustment has to be performed
also.
The 10V has to be optimized to max. rudder position.
To do this, it is possible to display the actual rudder value at the operating unit
(use the display key to look for the actual rudder).
Set rudder to 0° position and adjust the offset to 0° with potentiometer R 149.
Set rudder to Stb 30° and adjust 30° with potentiometer R 154.
Check this adjustment at rudder position of Port 30°.
(1) Rudder does not reach its end position

If the rudder--end--position is not reached by the setting of the nominal value, the
amplification factor has to be increased by potentiometer R154 (see
LEERER MERKER) until the actual value at the display of the operating unit is
identical to the mechanically position of the rudder.
(2) Rudder--end--position is reached untimely
The amplification factor has to be decremented with potentiometer R154 until the
nominal value is identical to the mechanicaly position of the rudder.
(3) Offset correction
After the adjustment of the nominal values we recommend a correction of the elec-
trically offset. See section 1.6.1 .
Rudder 2 Feedback input:

This input is fixed to +/-- 10V according max. rudder and cannot be adjusted.
After the adjustmens of the autopilot control,

the jumper between L1.10 and L1.12 has to
be removed.
“FU set up has to be switched off via operator
unit.

1.6.4.4 Configuration Survey

In the following list you can see all parameters of the configuration menu, the possible
settings and the default values.
ommend that you enter into the configuration survey, in writing, the parameter settings
made.
The parameters can be divided into 3 groups:

- basic parameters (No. 0 to 38)
- track interface data (No. 39 to 44)
- track control parameters (No. 45 to 88)
If in a parameter group no parameter change is to be performed (e.g. Basic Par = NO),
the configuration menu jumps to the next group (e.g. track interface data (No. 39)).
(4) Service Mode Parameters

The autopilot NP 2035 is designed to reach high performance track control acc. to DNV W1
classification. For that reason, it is equipped with different controllers for heading control and
track control function. This leads into additional parameters to be adjusted. The following list
of track control parameters (started with item No. 45) includes some parameters which have
to be adjusted in any case, few parameters which have to be adjusted sometimes , parame-
ters which have to be adjusted only acc. to the agreement of the development department
and some parameters which are only for development department use (activation of special
functions, to avoid new software versions for special behaving ships). The last two groups
are labeled in the list.
The parameter list for track control is frozen and can not be influenced by the user. The para-
meter settings done by the user influences only normal heading control function.

(5) Adjustment of Controller

To reach high performance track control, the autopilot NP 2035 controllers for heading
control and track control need different sets of parameters, which have to be adjusted
separately. The track controller parameters are to be determined and adjusted complete
separately. For that reason a special adjustment function is implemented. This function
allows to adjust some of the track control parameters without entering track control
mode.
The procedure is the same as to adjust a standard heading controller. The parameters
are named equal. The following procedure describes the steps for the adjustment:
1. Activate the ’Heading Controller Part’ of the track controller.

Enter the ATCPAR menu and set ACTCrseCtl to ON (menu item No. 46).
Having done this, the controller for normal heading control is switched off.
After finishing the adjustment work at track controller, the normal

heading controller has to be switched on again
(setting ACTCrseCtl to OFF)!
2. Now adjust the ShipL, CR_act, R_act and Yaw_act parameters using heading control
mode.
3. Switch off ACTCrseCtl!!
4. Adjust PivotPt using track control mode.

1.) After installation and connection of the Sonde, select in the NP2035 Autopilot
configuration No.13 Magnet “YES”, No.14 Magnet Source “C.PCB”
(see section 1.6.4.4.).
2.) Select MAGNETIC heading on NP2035.
“TMC REF Fail” alarm may be indicated on the display.
3.) Voltage Uref (AC) on R1 to R2 has to be appr. 1.8 Veff(400Hz).
4.) Connect a voltmeter (DC range) to TP 13 (TP14) and TP 1 (GND) of
NP2035 I/O--PCB.
5.) Turn the Sonde in its support until you read on the meter a voltage maximum
between +3.8V to 4.3V.
6.) If the voltage is <+3.8V or >+4.3V adjust with potentiometer R41 REF.MAG.
7.) In case the voltage is not adjustable with potentiometer R41, the Sonde has to be
altered closer to or further from the Magnetic compass.
8.) After distance alteration, repeat the voltage adjustment with Potentiometer R41
until “TMC REF Fail” disappears.
9.) Thereafter adjust the Sonde in its support until the Autopilot display shows the
same heading values as the Magnetic Compass and tighten the Sonde.
The potentiometer R59 SCALE SIN is for factory adjustment only!
In case it was disadjusted by fault, readjust as follows:

Turn the Magnetic Compass Card with an iron tool to 45° card reading. With this voltage
an TP 13 to TP 1 and on TP 14 to TP 1 of the NP2035 I/O--PCB has to be the same ma-
gnitude. If not readjusted with potentiometer R 59.

2.1 Safety Instructions
Warning!
This system does not have a safety locking device. In the
opened unit there is dangerous voltage accessibility.
Before carrying out maintenance or repairs, make sure
the voltage is turned off and secure against inadvertent
switching--on.
ATTENTION
Observe
handling regulations!
Electrostatic
sensitive components
CAUTION
Handling of electrostatically sensitive semiconductor components
Static voltages can damage certain semiconductor assemblies used within the system.
The following safety precautions should therefore be observed when these components
or units are being taken out of the system as they are then in danger of being damaged
by static charges due to open inputs of the semiconductor components.
1) Persons removing units from this system must be grounded by a wrist band. The
wrist band must lead via a ground cable to a central ground point in the system.
2) When using a soldering iron during repairs, the tip of the device must be used with a
low voltage supply and grounded. The iron must be separated from the mains by a
doubly insulated transformer.
3) Clothes must not produce any static charging.
4) Printed wiring boards that are fitted with these components must be stored and
transported in anti--static containers.

In opened devices or desks, voltages representing a

Caution risk of electic shock are applied.
-- Safety Instruction --
As a matter of principle, the system is to be made
dead when installation or repair work is performed oan
the equipment as well as during disassembly/assem-
bly of components or during alteration of the circuitry.
The device is protected against EMI and false poarity from the ship’s mains on the pri-
mary side by a noise filter and a 2A slow--blow fuse .
Attention:
In case of false polarity of the main power, the fuse blows up.
The 2A slow--blow fuse is on the right side of the terminal board (see figure below).
-- Switch off the ship’s mains supply before replacing the fuse.
-- The fuse holder can noe be opened (with a screwdriver).

3 Constructional features of the NP2035 Autopilot system
3.1 Basic System

The autopilot system is comprised of the following components (see Fig. 3--2:)
· Operator unit
The control unit is suitable for installation in bridge desks, steering stands or
for installation in a swivel housing:
· Control Unit
The main components of the control unit are:
-- a rack serving as central assembly housing for various electronic PCBs
-- the backplane for EMV and internal connections
-- the terminal connection block for ship‘s wiring
3.1.1 Operator Unit
The Operator Unit is the interface between the connection unit, the steering control and
the connected periphery devices.
There are various PCBs within the Control Unit.
A rack is used for housing the assemblies.
The operator unit is designed for installation in a control desk.

General operation is via inscribed membrane keys which are subdivided into two
groups:
-- Command keys for selection of the operating mode.
-- Function keys for individual adaptation
Several of the silicon keys are equipped with an LED display:

-- when the LED is lit this means,
the key and the corresponding function has been chosen.
-- when the LED flashes this means,
a system message (alarm, warning, value acceptance) is waiting and has to be
acknowledged.
A rotary knob with a double function for the desired heading setting allows
-- a direct desired heading adjustment that will be immediately effective
-- a desired heading setting which will only be effective after activating the SET key.
3578E/102--886/885.DOC032 3--1 Edition: Apr 12, 2002

Autopilot NP2035
Service Manual
Two inscribed status indicators with their own LED display display which compass has
been selected.
The display section of the operating unit consists of:

a 4 digit Heading display for the heading reading with resolution to1/10
degree.
-- an alphanumeric line which can be used as a text line or a bar graph
display
-- a 3 digit Preset Hedaing display for setting the desired heading
-- a one digit display that shows the currently used parameters.
3.1.1.1 Function of Operation Unit
Command keys
Command keys determine the operating mode of the NP2035 Autopilot.
Command key for the operating mode HEADING CONTROL (COURSE CONTROL)
Command key for the operating mode TRACK CONTROL *
Command key for the operating mode RATE OF TURN

CONTROL *
Command key for presetting of the heading change manoeuvre

-- by a definite radius value
-- by a definite R.o.T limit value
* These operating modes are only selectable in connection with extended system
environments (navigation receiver, R.o.T. Tiller).
In case of an NP2035 system with many NP2035 control units,

the command keys are used for switching over between the control locations.
The switch--over ensures via the command keys of the chosen control unit:
-- in the same operating mode, the preset desired heading remains unchanged
-- on changing the operating mode, a set heading adaptation results
and the set heading corresponds to the heading.
3578E/102--886/885.DOC032 3--2 Edition: Apr 12, 2002

Autopilot NP2035
Function keys --Parameter Management--
The parameter management will optimally adjust the autopilot to

-- the relevant type of vessel
-- the external conditions (wind, currents and yawing)
-- optimize the control conduct
Parameter group:
A parameter group consists of the parameter values for YAWING,
RUDDER and CNT.RUDDER.
Up to a total of 6 parameter groups can be formed within the parameter administration.
These can then be called up and can perform control functions as required.
The parameter administration is also used for setting the limit values that support safe
ship guidance during heading or track regulation.
Function keys:
Key for opening or modifying a parameter group
Key for calling up a parameter group
Key for display and selection of possible sensors
Key for display or selection of various limit value parameters
Key for overlaying information during heading or track regulation (alphanumeric line and /or bar
graph)

3.2 Monitoring Functions of the NP2035
The NP2035 system is fitted with a complex monitoring function which allows
both internal and external irregularities to be recognized.
A system message (s. Operator Manual Chapter. 2.14 ) is generated in case of distur-
bances or errors; this message is displayed in plain text on the text line.
3.2.1 Monitoring the Heading Controller
Individually adjusted limit values (heading alarm thresholds) monitor the control devi-
ation and trigger a heading error alarm when these are exceeded.
· Heading monitor and off heading function

The heading monitoring function is always executed in conjunction with the
MAGNET compass. The magnet compass heading is checked against the
preset heading to make sure that it keeps within the set course alarm thresholds.
If the threshold is exceeded, the heading monitor alarm (external alarm -- relais
contact) is triggered.
The off heading function compares the difference of the Gyro Compass and the
preset heading. If the threshold is exceeded the off heading alarm is triggered. This
alarm is indicated on the panel and available as external relay contact.
3.2.2 Monitoring the Serial Data Transfer

A check is made here as to
-- whether data transmission is interrupted
-- the data format of data transmission
-- the valid character and/or the checksum
3.2.3 Plausibility Monitoring of the Connected Periphery Devices
Here, the system parts are continually checked for disturbances.
