HARDWARE CONFIGURATION OF THE STREAM-X SYSTEM The STREAM-X system consists of the following parts DAD Fast Wave Control Units 1 Laptop 1 LAN Cable 2 Battery Cables (1 standard cable + 1 crocodile cable) 2 Batteries 1 Antenna-DAD Long Cable 1 Antenna Array (2 Modules @ 200MHz or 1 Module @ 600 MHz) 1 Black sledge (2 Modules with cross arms) 1 Antenna-Antenna Short Cable 1 White frame with Doppler encoder 1 Motor rack Motor rack Doppler Encoder Cross arms Antenna arrays Fig. 1.1 – STREAM-X System in complete configuration 14/ 22 1.1 Assembly procedure of the System In the following chapters the procedure to assemble the mechanical kit of StreamX will be explained. This procedure shows the assembling of the 200 MHz system (AR200-V8 antennas). The 600 MHz antenna only difference is the use of the AR600-V12 antenna model. Fig. 1.2 – 600 MHz array (AR600-V12 model) The black sledge is composed of two modules: link them with the white joints and fix the structure with the dedicated screws (Fig. 1.3). Insert the antenna modules in place and fix them with the elastic bands as shown in Fig. 1.4. 15/ 22 Joints Fixing screws Fig. 1.3 – Stream X sledge kit External arm Fig. 1.4 – Antenna positioning NOTE Notice that antenna connectors are placed to be aligned with the arm in the external side of the “cross”. This positioning must be done to respect the standard configuration file of IDS acquisition software. Put the motor rack over the hook linked to the vehicle with the automatic locking system (Fig. 1.5). Unscrew the supports until they touch the vehicle and modify their extension until the frame reaches approximately 90° with the ground level. Stabilize the frame applying straps. Link the remote to the remote connector and the crocodile battery cable to the bigger car battery supplied with the system (Red goes with +, Black goes with -). This will let you activate the motor rack: place the moving frame in the lowest position. 16/ 22 Remote connector Remote Support Moving frame Straps Fig. 1.5 – Motor rack 17/ 22 Joint Locking bar Pivot Fig. 1.6 – Fixing the white frame When the rack is in place the white frame can be connected to it. Just put the central part of the frame in the pivots of the rack and place the locking bars over the joints (Fig. 1.6). Arms joints Metallic plate Strip with Karabiner Fig. 1.7 – Link to the antenna sledge Use the four strips with karabiner to link the white frame with the metallic plates of the antenna sledge (Fig. 1.7). Link the cross arms with their corresponding joints: to do this operation easily, you may lift a little bit the sledge from the ground using the motor rack. 1.1.1 Cabling In the following chapter you will find the description of the Stream X cabling. Your system will be supplied with: One 5m antenna cable: this one will connect ANT1 port of the DAD unit to IN connector of the rightmost antenna frame (looking from behind). 18/ 22 One 1.5m antenna cable: this one will connect the two modules of the array in cascade (not required for the STREAMX600 system) Three Doppler encoder cables: these unique shaped cables will link the encoder with its piloting black box and the black box with both the wheel port of the DAD and the radar battery (small one). LAN cable: this cable connects the DAD to the laptop. Crocodile cable: this cable is used to power the motor rack 1.2 The DAD Fast Wave Control Units The DAD Control Unit is the control unit responsible for directing the antennas and digitalising the acquired radar data. The DAD Control Unit has the following ports Lan Port for a network connection to the Notebook Computer Battery Port to connect the battery Wheel Port to connect the position sensor wheel Ant.1/CHAINE - Ant.2 for radar antenna connection Power switch with pilot light Wireless antenna connector Wireless antenna connector - up Start button LAN port Battery Port Wireless plug Fig. 1.8 – DAD side Fast Wave with Battery Port, Lan Port and wireless connector 19/ 22 Ant1 and Ant 2 Wheel Port Connectors Fig. 1.9 – –DAD side Fast Wave with connections to position sensor and antennae Considering the type of available antenna, the following combinations are possible: 1. Ant.1 (connector with 19 poles) This kind of connector may be connected to the following categories of radar antennae. Entire range of TR IDS antennae that has a 19 pole connector and foresee a cascade connection (including STREAMX200 and STREAMX600 antennas); Fig. 2-3 shows an example of a an antennae with a 19 pole connector with a cascade connection. To connect the other antenna For DAD connection or toward another antenna Fig. 1.10 – Example of antenna with a 19 pole connector and possibility of a cascade connection 20/ 22 Entire range of TR IDS antennae that have an 11 pole connector, if supplied with an appropriate 19-11 pole adaptor (Fig. 1.11). Fig. 1.11 – 19-11 pole Adaptor 2. Ant.2 (11 pole connector) This kind of connector may have the following antenna radar categories connected Entire range of mono static TR IDS antennae with an 11 pole connector Entire range of TR IDS antennae with internal or external multiplex and an 11 pole connector 1.3 The Laptop Computer The K2STREAM acquisition SW is installed on a Laptop. This SW is dedicated to the specific phases of setting up, acquiring and saving radar data. IDS recommends to use one of the two following laptops: 1.3.1 Panasonic Toughbook rugged tablet PC The Panasonic Toughbook CF-19 PC (Fig. 1.12), has the following characteristics: CPU: 1.6GHz Intel Core Duo. Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP2. RAM/Expandable to: 512MB SDRAM (DDR2)/4GB Hard Drive/Speed: 80GB shock-proof (mounted on a gel support or equivalent). Optical Drive: 2.4X DVD+R DL Display Resolution: 10.4 inches/1024 x 768 21/ 22 Graphics/Video Memory: Intel 945GM video accelerator with up to 128MB shared video memory Wireless Networking: WLAN 802.11a/b/g, Bluetooth 2.0, Optional WWAN (EVDO, HSDPA) and GPS Ports: Two USB 2.0, Firewire, Ethernet, modem, headphone, mic, docking connector Card Slots: PC Card Type II, SD Card slot Weight: 5 pounds Size: 10.7 x 8.5 x 1.9 inches Warranty/Support: Three-year limited warranty, parts and labor lifetime toll-free 24/7.
