 Hardware Description

1 HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
This section describes the MP7600 hardware configuration.

1.1 General description

The MP7600 maritime computer is used in a wide range of
Operator Stations (OSs) produced by Kongsberg Maritime.
The computer can be installed inside OS consoles by using
specific mounting brackets (see actual operator station
maintenance manual for details on mounting).
The OS and process station application software is stored on the
MP7600 hard-disk.
The MP7600 is built around a high-performance CPU (central
processing unit) running the Microsoft® Windows XP™.
The computer can be easily dismantled for replacing module
purposes.
The MP7600 accepts both 115 and 230 VAC mains input voltage.
Part numbers for the different models are shown on the front page
of this document. The models differ mainly on the combination
of interface cards installed.

1.2 MP7600 computer cabinet

1.2.1 Cabinet front panel

See figure below for layout of the cabinet front. DVD-RW drive
is located to the left, and underneath the DVD is microphone
input, headphones output, two USB ports, LEDs for power and
internal hard-disk drive, and On/Off switch.

 Fault Finding

2 FAULT FINDING
This section presents the fault finding principles for the MP7600
computer.

2.1 Fault location/identification

If a fault situation has occurred, the fault is normally identified
from the symptoms observed. It is therefore important to record
all these observations to help the maintenance person or service
engineer. All error messages shown on the screen should be
logged for this purpose.
Note
If you are not able to correct the error situation yourself, you
should contact your nearest Kongsberg Maritime service office
for advice or to request service.

The fault-finding table below assumes that the problem is caused

by the MP7600 computer itself and no external factors are
involved.

 Preventive Maintenance

3 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
This section presents the preventive maintenance procedures for
the MP7600.
Replacement procedures relating to preventive maintenance, are
described only in the Corrective maintenance section.

3.1 How to clean the MP7600 cabinet surface

Use a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth and a neutral or mild soap
solution for best result. Do not use a dripping wet cloth when
cleaning. Use only a moistened cloth.

3.2 Preventive maintenance intervals

Note
These procedures should be performed on each MP7600 in
the system. Local evaluations should be made to determine
site-specific maintenance intervals.

Table 2 Recommended preventive maintenance intervals

4.1 Replacement procedures

Caution
Electrostatic charges can damage components on the
cards. Notice the following precautions: Always wear
a properly connected earthing strap when handling
unpacked cards. Place unpacked cards only on a
properly connected earthing mat or a shielding bag.
Keep cards in their shielding bags when not installed.
Never store cards near electromagnetic or electrostatic
devices.

Note
Replacement procedures that require power to be turned off
must be preceded by shutting down the MP7600 in a controlled
manner. Refer to the system operator manual for the appropriate
procedure.

WARNING
To avoid the risks accompanying high voltages,
always turn off the power circuit supplying the
computer before you open the cabinet lid.

4.1.15 How to replace a MP7600 computer

w/4 channel Blue Heat card with a new
MP7600 computer w/8 channel Blue Heat
card
The two computer types with Blue Heat cards are as follows:
• MP7600 computer with 4 channel Blue Heat card (MP7600
w/4 ch.)
• MP7600 computer with 8 channel Blue Heat card (MP7600
w/8 ch.)
The following steps must have been done before performing this
procedure:
• Ensure that the new MP7600 computer has the correct 8
channel Blue Heat interface card.
• Ensure that the new termination board (green) is the correct
type, and the correct number termination boards are available.
• The power to the MP7600 computer must have been turned
off.
This is how a typical MP7600 w/4 ch. looks like inside the
cabinet, where channel 1 and 2 are for RS232 and channel 3 and
4 are for RS422/485 on the old grey termination board:

2 Perform the procedure How to remove MP7600 computer
from Damper kit on page 22.
3 Then attach the new MP7600 computer with 8 channel Blue
Heat card, by reversing the steps in procedure referred in
step above.
4 Attach the cables to the back of the new computer.
5 Unscrew and disconnect the leads including the ground leads
from the 4 channels on the computer side of the termination
board.
Note
Channel 1 and 2 (RS232) uses 3 leads, and channel 3 and
4 (RS422/485) uses 5 leads.

6 Remove the disconnected cables from the cable tray.

7 Unscrew and disconnect leads including the ground leads
from the 4 channels on the field side of the termination
board.
Note
It is advisable to screw the leads including the ground leads
from the field side directly onto the new loose termination
boards (green termination boards) before removing the old
termination boards from the metal bar.

9 Connect the Blue Heat cable to the Blue Heat connector

(78–pin) on back of the MP7600 computer, see 1.4.2.6.
10 Snap-on the new termination boards, onto the metal bar.
Note
The new termination boards are to be connected to reflect
the channels on the new 8 channel Blue Heat card, where
channel 1 through 4 are for RS232 and channel 5 through 8
are for RS422/485 (P1 to channel 1, P2 to channel 2, P5 to
channel 5 and P6 to channel 6).
Channel P3, P4 (RS232) and channel P7 and P8
(RS422/RS485) are for future use.
