Safety Regulations:
Warning!
Use care during maintenance and repair to avoid contact with
energized electrical conductors. Applicable safety regulations
must be followed, such as VDE, VBG 4, OSHA 1919, and other
consensus safety standards.
Caution!
• Maintenance and repair must be performed by trained and
qualified personnel who are knowledgeable in equipment
safety requirements!
• Device may be damaged!
Exchange of spare parts only with the supply voltage swit-
ched off.
• When the gyro compass is switched off, the rotors come to a
standstill not before a running–down time of approx. 15 to
30 min has elapsed. During this time, no intervention in the
gyro compass must be made.
The gyrosphere might be damaged !
• Without built–in gyrosphere, the gyro compass equipment

STANDARD 20 must not be put into operation: otherwise an error mes-
sage appears.
Do not switch on the 24 V supply voltage!
• Check the level of the supporting liquid only while the ship is lying in a
harbor. The gyro compass STANDARD 20 must be in operation during
this time.
• To avoid failure of the device, pay attention to the warnings indicated
on the digital display, and eliminate the cause in good time.
• It is absolutely necessary to make the entry of the alignment error into
the table as – if the sensor electronics is replaced – the difference va-
lue is required to ascertain the reference heading for the new PCB!

zero adjustment takes place via switch B11 and push–button B14 on the sensor electronics
PCB.
1.8.1 Procedure
Prerequisite:
– The gyro compass equipment must be in operation at least 5h.
(1) Preparing the adjustment:

– Ascertain the reference course from the course direction of the ship’s fore–and–aft line
(e.g. take bearing or draw the pier course from the sea chart) and note it; e. g.: 178.4°.
– Open the gyro compass; on the sensor electronics PCB, the push–button B14 and the
switch B11 become visible (see Fig. 1–7).

1.11 Switching off the Follow–up System of the Gyro Compass

The follow–up system will automatically be switched on only from a supporting liquid tem-
perature of ≥45 °C.
For servicing purposes (e. g. correct follow–up of course indications on the repeater com-
passes), the follow–up system can be switched off as follows:
OFF OPEN
– Set DIP switch B11 / G to
OFF = follow–up system ON
OFF.
A B C D E F G H
With the follow–up system switched off, the digital display now
indicates the last course value with an illuminated point added
to the last decimal digit.
The outer sphere can now manually be turned into any position, the digital display always
indicating the corresponding angular value.
– Set DIP switch B11 / G to ON again = follow–up system ON.
The digital display now indicates the supporting liquid tempera-

ture for a short time (during follow–up) and
then again the actual course with – for a duration of approx. 1

min – an illuminated decimal point added to the last digit.

1.12 Test to be performed during Settling Phase or Normal Operation resp.

With this test, the function of the digital display, of the fan and of the stepping motor (fol-
low–up system) can be tested.
OFF OPEN
– Switch B11 / F to
position OFF ON
A B C D E F G H
– Actuate key B14 (Abb. 6)
Whilst the key is depressed:

– On the digital display, all luminous segments are lighted.
– The fan must be in operation.
– If the operating temperature is still t < 45 °C, the follow–up
system switches on. The stepping motor turns the outer
sphere to the instantaneous course value of the gyro–
sphere.
With t > 45 °C, the follow–up system has already switched
on; therefore, it is not necessary for the stepping motor to
turn the outer sphere to the instantaneous course value.
After test:
– Switch B11 / F to position ON

2.3.3 Aids to Trouble Shooting

After an error has occurred, the course information is switched off. The gyro compass then
makes up to 4 re–starting attempts. After having made a 4th fruitless attempt, the gyro compass
remains switched off. The number of starting attempts as well as the last occurred error are
stored and can be visualized on the digital display by calling up the compass data (Section 1.9).

Fig. 2–13: Lifting out the Sensor Electronics
– Carefully remove the printed board and replace it

– Assembly/re–assembly in the reverse order.
– Put the gyro compass equipment STANDARD 20 into operation again by switching on
the 24 V supply
– Read the difference value (alignment error) from the inner surface of the door and, with
this value in acc. to the following description, Sections 1 to 3, calculate the requisite new
value and enter it into the installed new sensor electronics PCB.
It is indispensable to carry out this last point, as the refer-

ence course, depending on the installation position of the
compass, is still not stored on the new PCB. Otherwise, the
course indication of the gyro compass would be incorrect.
2771E/110–800.DOC032 2 – 22 Edition: 10. Mar. 1998

(1) General information to put in the reference course

During the first putting into operation, the gyro compass has been adapted to the
mounting site. The difference value (alignment error) from this is noted inside of the
door. With this value the new reference course has to be calculated and entered
again.
Pre–condition:
– The course is indicated on the digital display after restarting the equipment
(settling time of at least 1 h).
(2) Calculation of the value to be entered by taking into account the difference
value
Read–out and note the encoder value acc. to Section 1.9 Steps 7 and 8.
Encoder value plus or minus difference value (dependent on sign)
Example: Encoder value: 256.9°
Difference value from table on the inside of the door: –78.5°
Value to be entered: 178.4°
(3) Putting–in of the calculated course value: see Section 1.8.1 (2)

3.1.1 Supporting Plate

The supporting plate (Fig. 3–2) – an aluminium cast construction with cooling ribs on its up-
per side – carries on its underside the electronics PCB, gear, joint and fan.
The 360° suspension of the sensor is ensured by an encoder, centrally flanged on the sup-
porting plate and with a resolution of 212 pulses/revolution. The pendulum joint for receiving
the outer sphere is attached to its shaft as well as the slip–ring assembly with the flange–
mounted toothed belt wheel. Via a toothed belt, a transmission ratio of i = 5.12 from the fol-
low–up stepping motor to the outer sphere mounting is achieved via the pendulum joint. Dur-
ing a fine step of the stepping motor of 0.225°, therefore,0.044° / fine step are transmitted on
the 360° shaft.
Above the door, the supporting plate shows a window through which a 4–digit, 7–segment
LED indication on the sensor electronics is visible. The LED indication shows the uncor-
rected course and – in coded form – status indications, warnings and errors.
The slip–ring assembly has been designed as a PCB and contains 11 slip rings.

3.1.2 Joint
The pendulum joint that is directly flange–mounted on the encoder (Fig. 3–3) connects the
outer sphere with the encoder; an absolute heading determination – free from gear back–
lash – is therefore guaranteed.
The pendulum joint is coupled to a damping. A damping body in a highly viscous liquid re-
duces the outer sphere vibration occurring during ship movement.
A vibration isolation eliminates interference from outside by vibration and shock in the hori-
zontal as well as in the vertical direction.
Both assemblies – the pendulum joint with damping and the vibration isolation – are in-
cluded by a bellows. This has a high stiffness during radial strain; on the other hand, the
bellows gives way slightly in case of axial and angular strain.

A store results in the partition in the upper part of this assembly; this forms the reserve vol-
ume of the supporting liquid. By the formation of condensation, this store supplies distilled
water to supplement the amount of supporting liquid in the area of the outer sphere. The
amount to be supplemented is controlled by a float valve.
In the return area, a heat cartridge has been built in for temperature regulation in the upper
outer sphere.
A transparent measuring cone serves for a visual check of the level of the supporting liquid
and the horizontal positioning of the gyrosphere.
A printed wiring board is mounted on the upper outer sphere shell; this board is connected
via plug and cable trunk with the slip rings. There is also a temperature sensor on the board
as well as an overtemperature fuse and a capacitor for the pump motor.
The outer sphere is fastened to the pendulum joint by quick–release fasteners in the upper
outer sphere shell.
3.1.3.2 Lower Outer Sphere Shell

The lower outer sphere shell forms the actual liquid support for the gyrosphere. It also con-
tains the electric reversing contacts at the height of the equator of the gyrosphere – required
for the follow–up of the outer sphere – and the conductive lower calotte.
The pump for the supporting liquid is in the lower part of the lower outer sphere shell.
The supporting liquid is returned by a tube that guides the supporting liquid from the upper
outer sphere shell to the suction area of the pump rotor. The sensor for measuring the con-
ductivity has been built in here as well.

3.1.4 Gyrosphere
The gyrosphere (Fig. 3–5) contains the north–seeking two–gyro system. To reduce gas fric-
tion to both gyro rotors and to avoid oxidation, the gyrosphere is filled with gas (helium) and
hermetically sealed.
The gyrosphere is fitted with a conductive calotte at each pole – corresponding to the outer
sphere. At the equator, there is a semi–circular conductive band for pick–off of the heading
position.

3.1.5 Sensor Electronics

The printed wiring board with the sensor electronics (Fig. 3–6) is arranged as plug–in board
below the supporting plate. The following components are assembled on the board:
– processing of the digital angular value of the encoder as well as conversion into a serial
output signal
– setting of the encoder to zero
– reversing–contact signal–processing and control of the follow–up stepping motor
– 400Hz supply for gyro and pump motor
– evaluation of the height of the gyrosphere and conductivity of the supporting liquid
– temperature regulation of the outer sphere group
– digital heading display

3.1.6 Casing
The cylindrical casing is provided with a door; when the door is removed, a cutout with an
angular range of approx. 100° and the total height of the casing will be available for assem-
bly and service purposes. The door is attached to the casing; the transition region is sealed
with rubber gaskets.
The casing floor contains the fastening bore–holes for board assembly as well as centrally
arranged perforations for the cooling air supply.
A fan in the upper part of the casing supplies the air current required for any necessary cool-
ing of the sensor.
The top of the casing is covered by the supporting plate (refer to Section 3.1.1).

3.2 Operating Principle
3.2.1 Gyro System

(Refer to Fig. 3–7)
The gyrosphere, in operation floating freely in the supporting liquid within the outer sphere,
constitutes the north–indicating system. Two gyros installed in the gas–tight gyrosphere
and driven by AC produce, in conjunction with the combined effects of the earth’s rotation
and gravitation, a directive force which causes the gyrosphere to settle on the geographic
north–south line. Two mechanically coupled gyros with gyro vector axes at right angles to
each other are used in order to avoid errors caused by the ship’s roll and pitch motions.
When the gyro compass system is switched on, the gyro rotors begin to run up. The gyro-
sphere now oscillates about the north–south direction under the effects of gravity and the
earth’s rotation.

Service Manual
A damping system incorporated in the gyrosphere damps these oscillations until the gyro-
sphere comes to rest (approx. 3 hours) and the resultant vector axis of the gyro system indi-
cates the north–south direction (Fig. 3–8).

3.2.2 Hydrostatic, Dynamic Suspension and Centring of the Gyrosphere in the Outer
Sphere
(Refer to Fig. 3–9 and Fig. 3–11)
When the compass equipment is switched on, the pump for the supporting liquid functions
as well. The supporting liquid covers the gyrosphere and thereby forms the supporting bear-
ing for the sphere.
The weight of the gyrosphere and the specific gravity of the supporting liquid are adjusted
exactly so that, with the gyro compass at operating temperature, the gyrosphere has a slight
residual weight. This residual weight is cancelled by the liquid steam produced by the pump
which thereby simultaneously centres the sphere. In this way, the gyrosphere floats freely in
the outer sphere.
A conductive tube is built into the fluid return line for the measurement of the conductivity of
the supporting liquid. An alternating voltage at this location is constantly fed to a controller
and evaluated there.

Service Manual
To determine the height of the gyrosphere, on the one hand the mean distance of the gyro-
sphere from the reversing contacts is used and on the other the mean distance of the gyro-
sphere from the calottes via resistance measurements. The resulting values are processed
and evaluated in a controller.
3.2.3 Power Supply of the Gyrosphere

The gyro rotors require an AC supply of 55 V/400 Hz in order to achieve a speed of rotation of
approx. 12,000 rev./min.The electric current for supplying the gyro rotors passes via the ca-
lottes of the outer sphere through the slightly basic, and therefore conductive, supporting
liquid to the calottes of the gyrosphere. The third phase required for the rotors is formed in
the inside of the sphere with the aid of a capacitor.

3.2.4 Electric Pick–off and Follow–up for Course Transmission

At the equator of the sphere there is a conductive band; its ends are designed for pick–off of
the sphere position with regard to the outer sphere. The pick–off has been designed as
bridge circuit and is part of the follow–up system.
The bridge circuit comprises the primary windings from the connected symmetrical trans-
former as well as both transfer resistances R1 and R2 of the supporting liquid between re-
versing contacts W1 and W2 of the outer sphere and the ends of the conductive band on the
gyrosphere.
When the ship changes direction, the outer sphere rotates against the gyrosphere. A count-
er–rotation of the transfer resistances R1 and R2 results. Due to the resulting asymmetry in
the bridge circuit, an electric voltage that is dependent on the direction of rotation is pro-
duced.
Via an amplifier, this voltage activates a stepping motor that makes follow–up the outer
sphere via a toothed belt until the transfer resistances are balanced. The position of the
outer sphere now once again corresponds with that of the gyrosphere.
The sensitivity of the follow–up system is within the limits of static exactitude. In this way, the
relation of the current heading to the azimuth is guaranteed.
The symmetrical transformer required for follow–up is on the printed wiring board of the sen-
sor electronics. A controller supplies digital control signals to integrated stepping motor
components. A stepping motor then makes follow–up the outer sphere to approx. 0.05° of
the gyrosphere by mechanical reduction.
The gyro compass STANDARD 20 transmits the heading signal via the serial interface
RS 422 HEADING SERIAL*) to the periphery.
3.2.5 Controlling the Temperature of the Outer Sphere Group

An electronic sensor measures the temperature of the supporting liquid. Its signal is pro-
cessed in a microcontroller. In case of under–temperature, this controller activates a heating
cartridge and in case of over–temperature, it switches on a fan. In case of prolonged heating
at over–temperature, a temperature fuse switches the heating off.
*) Ratheon Anschütz specific

3.2.6 400 Hz Supply

(Refer to Fig. 3–11)
From the 24 VDC ship’s mains, the converter on the sensor electronics forms a stable–fre-
quency AC voltage of 400 Hz via a quartz–controlled harmonic oscillator. Variable frequency
half sine waves are generated; these result from the integration of a pulse–width modula-
tion.
Frequency stability is achieved by a quartz–controlled, PLL–regulated harmonic oscillator.

An electronic fuse switches off the converter in case of short circuit, overload or other faults.
The converter has a suitable antijammer that suppresses disturbances (caused by the
switching regulator) to the outside.

Service Manual
3.2.7 Temperature–dependent Functions

Operating functions that are dependent on the temperature of the gyro compass are illus-
trated in Fig. 3–12.
When the gyro compass is switched on the heating is also switched on. Follow–up is
switched on after a temperature of 45 °C has been reached; the heating then begins to re-
duce its heating power proportionally down to 0% at 50 °C. From approx. 51 °C, the fan is
switched on. If the temperature increases up to 65 °C, then a coded over–temperature warn-
ing is displayed on the heading indicator; this display changes to an over–temperature
alarm when 70 °C are reached. If the temperature continues to increase beyond this point
then the temperature fuse shuts off the heating circuit at approx. 77 °C.
