General safety
CAUTION: Before unpacking and installing the Fanbeam® 5 system, read the safety instructions
below carefully and ensure that they are followed at all times by all operators. Failure to do so could
adversely affect the performance of the Fanbeam system and/or lead to personal injury. Operators
must be trained in the use and application of the Fanbeam 5 and accompanying products in the
context of the vessel it is fitted to before being allowed to operate the system. 1-1
• DO NOT edit any of the system files directly – the appropriate commissioning software package
should only be used by trained personnel.
1.2 Warnings
• Beware of unexpected movement. The user should remain outside the full working envelope of
the Fanbeam 5 laser positional reference sensor. The machine supplier should ensure the user
is aware of the full working envelope of the system.
• Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working in areas of
potential hazard. If working at height, always use a safety harness.
• It is the machine supplier’s responsibility to ensure that the user is made aware of any hazards
involved in operation, including those mentioned in the product documentation.
• The cables must meet the manufacturer’s specifications. Incorrect cabling could cause damage
to the equipment.
• The Fanbeam 5 laser positional reference sensor must be transported in the packaging
supplied.

Installation
upgrading from an earlier Fanbeam 3, 4, 4.1 or 4.2 model. If using a Fanbeam Advance system
when upgrading to Fanbeam 5 from a Cyscan Mk.3, please refer to the Fanbeam Advance Upgrade
from existing CyScan Mk.3 installation and commissioning guide.

2.1 Installation overview
The Fanbeam 5 system is simple to install. However, there are some very important points in the
following guide that should be observed.
Where this symbol is displayed on the equipment, the user must first refer to this manual
for information and safety advice.
The location and mounting of the Fanbeam 5 sensor on the vessel is an important consideration in
any installation. Before any work is carried out, due attention should be paid to the following issues:
• The Fanbeam 5 is an optical device and relies upon a clear line of sight to the target(s). The
recommended Fanbeam installation location is often on the centre line, directly above the
bridge. Avoid locations where other equipment could potentially obstruct the laser beam and
hinder performance.
• The location should be reasonably easy to access so that routine maintenance can be carried
out regularly and without risk. A mast installation may offer the best line of sight, but presents
problems when the Fanbeam 5 has to be removed for servicing.
• The mounting location should avoid areas of vibration or dirt, such as engine room exhaust
emissions that may affect the lenses.
• The Fanbeam mounting location must allow space for 360° rotation of the head. A heavy
obstacle could block the movement and cause damage to the mechanical assembly.
• Most Fanbeam-to-Fanbeam upgrades will use existing mounting arrangements. However, the
above should still be considered when reusing existing arrangements.
Fanbeam 5 upgrade – installation and commissioning guide
WARNING: The warning symbol signifies that the Fanbeam PSU supply is greater
Installation
than 75 Vdc and as such is classified as lethal voltage. The Fanbeam PSU has
no user-serviceable parts. In the event of a problem, please contact your local
supplier for assistance. Once installed, do not attempt to open the item unless you
2-2 are a qualified electrician. Always isolate the PSU supply voltage before the unit is
removed (uninstalled) and/or replaced (installed). Appropriate visual inspection and
electrical safety testing is to be performed after unit installation or unit replacement.
The Fanbeam system employs a simple cable structure (see sections 2.2, “System schematic –
functional”, and 2.3, “System schematic – pictorial” ). As with any marine cable run, however, good
practice is needed to ensure a successful installation.
• All cables must be installed with regard to bend radius and entry angle.
• All cable runs should be protected as much as possible. The cables should be adequately
secured and supported using REM clamps, plastic tie-wraps or steel cable bands. This is to
ensure there is no free movement or damage to the cables.
• All cable runs should be separated from high-voltage ac cables or unscreened data cables.
• Where there is enough cable, service loops should be left at both ends of each cable to allow
for future work and/or relocation.

Decommissioning
legacy Fanbeams
Upgrading from a legacy Fanbeam system to Fanbeam 5 involves removal of the following
components:
3-2
Park the old Fanbeam sensor (if this is practicable) as this makes it possible to fit the sensor in the
transit case for shipment.
Power down the system by pressing and holding the OFF button on the UCU. The PC should shut
down Windows, and the display should go blank. Locate and isolate the UPS circuit breaker for the
Fanbeam system. Confirm that the correct breaker is isolated by trying to power up the Fanbeam
system again – it should not re‑start.
3.2 Legacy Fanbeam sensor decommissioning
Decommissioning
legacy Fanbeams
The Fanbeam 5 sensor uses the same mounting arrangement as previous Fanbeam models
(3, 4/4.1 and 4.2). Therefore, care should be taken not to damage the mounting arrangement or
cables when de-mobilising the old sensor.
Step 1 Step 2
1. Cut any electrical and self-amalgamating tape from the connectors on the sensor cables. Be
careful not to cut too deep and damage the heat shrink.
Step 3 Step 4
3. Remove each connector and check for corrosion or damage to the connector and conductor
pins.
4. Use a bag to protect the exposed connectors from the weather while mobilisation takes place.

Step 5 Step 6
5. Using two M8 ratchet sockets, loosen the four mounting bolts that hold the sensor onto the
mounting plate. If these are excessively corroded, they may need to be cut using a hacksaw.
These mounting bolts can be disposed of, as new ones are supplied in the upgrade package.
6. Two people should position themselves next to the sensor so that person 1 can safely remove
the mounting bolts, lift the sensor, and pass it to person 2 safely located behind handrails on
the wheelhouse deck.
Step 7 Step 8
7. Remove and dispose of plastic isolation feet from the sensor/mounting plate.
8. Note the serial number of the old Fanbeam sensor from its label or engraving on mounting
feet.
Step 9
9. Place Fanbeam into transit case for return.
3.3 Universal Control Unit decommissioning
Decommissioning
legacy Fanbeams
The Fanbeam UCU can be mounted on a U-bracket or panel mounted into the DP console.
3-5
U-bracket Panel
Care should be taken when removing this not to damage the three cable connections as these will
all be re-used by the Fanbeam 5 control system.
Step 1 Step 2
1. Locate the UCU and disconnect the three cables (deck cable, VGA and DP feed) from the
rear. These may need to be slightly repositioned for connection into the Fanbeam 5 control
system.
2. Dismount the UCU from its U-bracket and remove the U-bracket from the console.
Often the Fanbeam 5 control panel will be located where the UCU was on the bridge console.
However, the other new control system items will need to be located in the vicinity of the existing
cables for connection to the Fanbeam sensor, VGA display and DP system.

4.1 Mounting the sensor
FB5 upgrade
The sensor should be mounted on a heavy-duty steel plate, as
shown in the diagrams that follow in this section. The mounting
plate should be welded to a stable structure ensuring that it is
4-1
level in both planes. The holes for mounting Fanbeam 5 should be
aligned carefully along the fore and aft axis of the vessel. Check
the plate for mechanical arching and fit shims as required. The
Fanbeam base can be damaged if forced onto a distorted plinth.
IMPORTANT: The sensor should be mounted with the two external cannon connectors facing the
front of the vessel. This aligns the 0° axis of the Fanbeam 5 with that of the vessel.
Always fit the supplied feet isolators and plastic washers to provide galvanic isolation. Torque
up the four M8 bolts to 12 Nm (106 lb/in). The bulkhead connectors should be lightly greased
using the supplied silicone grease before fitting the cables. Take care not to grease the pins. Use
self‑amalgamating tape to wrap both connectors and protect from moisture ingress. Always leave
service loops of cable for both power and data at the Fanbeam 5. This allows for spare cable in the
event of re-termination and helps to prevent moisture runs.
Once mounted, check that there are no obstructions which will limit movement of the system’s head
through 360°.
WARNINGS:
• Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working in areas of
potential hazard. If working at height, always use a safety harness.
• Do not remove the Fanbeam 5 base when installing the system. Use the drawing template in
section 4.1.1, “Mounting plate drawing”.
• Never rotate the Fanbeam 5 head by hand. The system can only be rotated by commands from
the control system once power is connected.
• Protect the Fanbeam 5 from all forms of mechanical damage and shock.
Three warning labels are affixed to the Fanbeam 5 sensor device, namely:
Installation of
FB5 upgrade
A single large (51 mm × 51 mm) warning label is located upon the main housing
cover, adjacent to the shaft seal clamp, below the nominal location of the scanning
head. This label signifies caution in terms of the risk of potential trapping,
entanglement or physical impact due to the rotational movement of the scanning
4-2
head, and crush potential due to the physical movement of the autotilt mechanism
whose motor is not clutch-protected, during normal operating conditions.
Two small (21 mm × 21 mm) warning labels are located upon the laser tilt yoke,
either side of the laser module, to signify caution in terms of the potential risk of
trapping, entanglement or physical impact.

Most Fanbeam-to-Fanbeam 5 upgrades will make use of an existing DP feed cable. As the legacy
control unit only offered RS232 data output, the Fanbeam 5 software will need to be configured
to use COM4 on the embedded PC for data output. The existing DP feed cable should then be
connected directly into COM4 on the embedded PC. The supplied data cable is an 8-core screened
cable terminated with a 9-way, D-type female connector on each end. Cable length is 3 m.

This cable is used for connection of the Fanbeam system to the user’s equipment.
Where an RS422 output is needed, a different cable may be required. Please see RS422 pin‑outs
in the embedded PC section. Typically only TxD and GND will be used for an RS232 DP feed.
The control panel is supplied with a U-shaped bracket, which allows the unit to pivot. The bracket
may be secured to the desired mounting position and the angle of the keypad adjusted to suit.
Alternatively, the bracket may be removed and the control panel can be panel mounted. We
recommend that the unit be installed at a normal working height to facilitate ease of use of the
keypad and glide pad.
