Transcript of Overview – HOT Site Hawaii Ocean Time-series “HOT” Site –3 Stations: Kahe, Kaena & ALOHA...
Overview – HOT Site
• Hawaii Ocean Time-series “HOT” Site – 3 Stations: Kahe, Kaena & ALOHA– monthly cruises for 15 years– ALOHA Station 100km N of Oahu
MARS Ocean Observatory Network (MOON)
• Major Components– Seafloor sensor suite & junction box– Subsurface float at ~200m depth with
sensor suite and junction box– Mooring profiler with sensor suite that
can “dock” with the float for battery charging, data download and command upload
– 1000m electro-optical mooring cable
• Features– Cable connection provides high power
and real-time communications– Enables adaptive sampling– ROV servicing and installation of
sensors

System Requirements
• Compatible with MARS power and data interfaces• Provide 12Vdc (?), 48Vdc and 400Vdc (?) power and 10/100BaseT communications at Science User Connectors• Provide connection method for standard RS-232 sensors• ROV serviceable j-boxes• Operational life of > 2 years• Located > 2 km from MARS node to allow ROV access to MARS node and instruments
Goals
• Provide video at Float and Seafloor J-boxes and on still camera Profiler• Profiler mountable/removable by ROV• Profiler rate of 40 cm/sec (standard is 25 cm/sec)

Junction Boxes – Float & Seafloor
• Inherited from NEPTUNE/MARS development• Node Controller hardware and software• Shore power control and monitoring, archiving, GUI• Load control – switching, over current, ground fault• DC-DC converters• ROV mateable connectors
• New Development• Small Ethernet switch• Ethernet – RS-232 conversion• Ethernet electrical-optical conversion
Observatory – Instrument Interface
• Embedded Device Servers- 10/100BaseT Ethernet- Multiple RS-232 ports- Memory space for metadata/embedded website- TCP, UDP, SNMP, DHCP, etc.- Auxiliary I/O lines
…….or could have multi-port serial hub in the J-Box and use serial through the User Science Connectors

Electrical-Optical Conversion
• ROV mateable electro-optical connectors very expensive (~$20k) and not likely to be used extensively on observatories for instrument connection
•ROV mateable electrical connectors are lower cost (~$2k) and will be used on MARS, VENUS and ALOHA
• Fiber optic cables are required for data transmission > 100m
• Transmission distances up to 100 km
• COTS ethernet electrical-optical converter available for operation in 10kpsi oil (~$2k)
Electrical-Optical Conversion
• Allows use of standard ROV connector with copper conductors for Ethernet communications over long distances
• Cost significantly less than E-O hybrid connector

McLane Mooring Profiler
• 6000m depth rating• Trajectory and sampling schedule programmable pre-deployment• Resistant to cable fouling• 1 M meters of travel per battery charge•Standard sensors
• CTD• 4 axis Acoustic Current Meter (ACM)
• ~40 units sold
McLane Mooring Profiler Modifications
• New motor, gearbox, wheel re-design to fit larger EOM cable (~18mm)• Mount 2nd CTD, optical sensors• Interface AOM controller to their modem port to offload data after every profile• Replace primary Li batteries with rechargeable Li-Ion• Plan to use existing McLane housing (17.5” & 22.5” std lengths)• Modify cable mounts & retainer for ROV servicing (goal)• Profiling rate will be set by gearbox – not controllable – 25 cm/s (std), 40cm/s (goal)• Need to decide on profiling and charging times (4 days/4 hours looks achievable with reasonable size battery packs.)

Outstanding Issues
• Need ALOHA Interface specs • Float depth of 200m – want to get below light (biology) & surface waves• Fishbite protection on the mooring wire would add a layer to the cable and complicate profiler movement. Do we need it?• Use “standard” Observatory ROV mateable connectors and instrument interface• Need good precision survey of site – water depth of mooring site•
