IMPORTANT!
The gyro’s optical sensors and PCB stack are calibrated at the
factory as a matched set. The labels on the optical sensors denote
the channels and the serial numbers of their associated PCBs. To
ensure proper performance, keep the gyro’s components together.
Do not install mismatched optical sensors and PCBs!
NOTE: For simplification, all other illustrations in this manual show the
unshielded optical sensor.

Storage and Handling
The DSP-1750 gyro may be stored in a location with an environmental
temperature between -60° F and 185° F (-51° C and 85° C). Ideally, the
unit should be stored at a room temperature of approximately 70° F
(21° C).
IMPORTANT!
If you need to ship the gyro to another location, be sure to reinstall
it in its original plastic shipping tray and pack it in a larger box
with appropriate packing materials.
Maintenance
The DSP-1750 gyro’s optical sensors are supplied as sealed units; there
are no field maintainable components. Opening the enclosures will
void the warranty and may violate the contract under which the unit
was supplied.
Output Orientation
Each of the DSP-1750 gyro’s optical sensors detects rotation around an
axis perpendicular to the plane of its base. Looking at an optical sensor
from overhead, a counter-clockwise rotation will produce a positive
output (see Figure 4).
Sensor Cable

Sensor Cable
A 5.9" (150 mm) ribbon cable connects each optical sensor to the PCB
stack’s channel PCB at the connector locations shown in Figure 5. After
installing the gyro, be sure to secure these cables to the mounting
surface as close as possible to each connector (at the sensors and the
PCB) to relieve strain and help protect them from vibration. Also be
sure the ribbon cables are fully engaged with the connectors at the
sensors and PCB. You should hear a slight click when you connect the cable.

Interface Connector
The gyro’s channel PCB is equipped with a 15-pin interface connector
of the following type: Tyco part number 5-1734598-5. Figure 6 shows
the interface connector pins and the function of each pin.

Power Requirements
IMPORTANT!
Be sure to follow all of the guidelines provided in this section. The
gyro can become inoperable and/or damaged if all of the power
requirements described in this section are not met.
Power-on Requirements
• The +5 VDC supply must rise above +4 VDC before the
+15 VDC and -15 VDC supplies rise above +5 VDC and
below -5 VDC, respectively.
• All three supplies should transition smoothly and
monotonically to their required voltage levels.
• All three supplies should reach their required voltage
levels within 200 msec of each other.
Power-off Requirements
• The +5 VDC supply must maintain its voltage level above
+4 VDC until the +15 VDC and -15 VDC supplies fall below
+2 VDC and above -2 VDC, respectively.
• All three voltages should settle to within 100 mV of the
common ground reference (and their individual returns) in
less than 2 seconds.

Digital Data Output
Interface connector pins 4 through 8 provide a 1,000 Hz asynchronous
serial interface to the gyro. This interface has the following
characteristics:
Type: RS422
Parity: None
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
*NOTE: The output burst rate might vary by ±5 percent between gyros.
There is also variation over temperature of approximately ±0.2 percent.
10
Message Structure
The output message contains 48 bits (6 bytes), excluding start and stop
bits. The most significant byte is sent first. The least significant bit of
each byte is sent first. Figure 8 and Figure 9 define the message bits.

IMPORTANT!
Be sure to follow all of the guidelines provided in “Power
Requirements” on page 9. The gyro can become inoperable and/or
damaged if all of the necessary power requirements are not met.

Testing the Gyro
Before connecting and mounting the gyro to your system, a simple
familiarization test is suggested if this is your first introduction to the
product. This test will also verify proper unit operation and assist in
troubleshooting.
IMPORTANT!
The gyro’s components are static-sensitive. Take proper grounding
precautions before handling (for example, use an ESD wrist strap).
Test Procedure
Follow the steps below to test the gyro for proper operation.
IMPORTANT!
Be sure to follow all of the guidelines provided in “Power
Requirements” on page 9. The gyro can become inoperable and/or
damaged if all of the necessary power requirements are not met.

(-8 to -15 VDC), and +5 VDC power supplies to the gyro
as shown in Figure 11 on page 13.
TIP: To calculate the Earth rate for your geographic area, use the following
formula: Earth rate = 15.04107 x sin (latitude).
Northern latitudes are positive and southern latitudes are negative.

Make sure the processor PCB is still securely mated to the channel
PCB. Then mount the PCB stack to your mounting structure using four
#2-56 screws through the hole locations shown in Figure 14. Use
standoffs to ensure the PCB components do not come into contact with
the mounting surface. Tighten the screws to 3 in-lbs of torque.
1.102 [27.99]
The mounting surface should be flat, less than 0.005" (0.127 mm)
peak-to-peak. The material should be greater than 0.2" (5 mm) thick
with the overall stiffness of the structure designed to be compatible
with the natural frequency specified for the gyro or as required for the
specific installation. The chassis ground must be mechanically
connected to mounting hole #1 on the channel PCB, as shown in
Figure 15, for proper shielding.
17
Cable Strain Relief
Once you have mounted the gyro, make sure the ribbon cables are
fully engaged with the connectors on the optical sensors and channel
PCB. Then secure each cable to the mounting structure in two
locations, as close as possible to each connector, to relieve strain and
help protect it from vibration (see Figure 16).

Troubleshooting
This section is intended to provide a simple means of determining if a
problem exists in the KVH DSP-1750 gyro and assumes that the unit
has passed the bench testing described earlier.
IMPORTANT!
The DSP-1750 optical sensors are supplied as sealed units.
Opening the enclosure voids the warranty and may violate the
contract under which the unit was supplied.
The warranty does not apply if the unit has been damaged by
misuse or as the result of service or modification other than by
KVH Industries.
*NOTE: Replacement ribbon cables are available from KVH. Order KVH
part number 19-0587-15.
