1. Orion Monitor Driver
2. Orion Monitor Drivers

This driver decodes the solution and field messages of Optimal Ranging's underwater utility surveying product Orion. The driver does not have the capability to command the device. Please use the vendor's tooling to configure the device prior to using it in Qinsy.

Driver Information

Database Setup

General

ORION DELTA ORION Users Manual For Current Models. This is the complete User Manual for the Orion Delta 3D Printer that came with the firmware version 0.91. To verify this, simply look at the LCD screen when it powers on and it will display the machines firmware information. ORION Users Manual For machines with 0.83 Firmware. Not all HOS apps are equal—some are expensive, don’t work, or have small buttons that frustrate drivers. Orion’s HOS app is simple, inexpensive and compliant—that’s all you need. Worried about safety? If you’ve had a safety issue with a driver or are worried about safety, risk or what your drivers have to do on the road, you need Orion. One thing that I noticed is if the incorrect resolution is set, the display will not work, it just stays blank. It was an issue for me in the early days of Windows 10. I had to manually set it to the correct value. These days though, I just connect my monitor and wait a bit. Windows 10 installs the driver all by itself and my monitor becomes. Verify that files were installed in C: Program Files (x86) Solarwinds Orion APM OracleClient. Check the file properties of each.dll file to ensure that the account under which the SolarWinds JobEngine v2 service runs has high enough privileges to load required libraries. Restart all Orion services.

The Orion system does not provide a time stamp with the messages. Therefore, the time of arrival is used as the time stamp for the decoded observation.
Because the Orion has a fixed delay between the actual observation and the time at which the message arrives in Qinsy, a fixed latency should be entered for each system that uses the Orion driver.
The latency can be entered in the first page of the 'Edit system' dialog. The latency that should be used is 1.386 seconds.

Pitch Roll Heave Sensor

Use 'Optimal Ranging Orion (R-P)' as driver. The default settings (apart from the port settings and the latency) are correct.

Gyro Compass

Use 'Optimal Ranging Orion' as driver. The default settings (apart from the port settings and the latency) are correct.

This driver will provide the magnetic heading of the Orion.

Multibeam Echosounder

Use 'Optimal Ranging Orion' as driver.

Set the proper latency and port settings and set the 'Max beams per ping' field to '2'. Other than that the default values are correct.

USBL system

The USBL system provides the position of utility detection relative to the Orion. The USBL system can be used to display a projection of the utility in the Navigation display and/or the Profile display.

To create such a setup:

1. Make sure that you have configured an Orion object with at least a gyro system.
2. Make sure that a Miscellaneous system is added to the system that at least decodes slot 'INV_YAW'
3. Create a new object that represents the utility.
   1. Type: Vessel.
   2. Use a proper shape that mimics the shape of the utility.
4. Add a gyro system to the 'utility' object.
   1. Use 'System Cloner' for the driver.
   2. Choose the gyro system on the Orion object as the system to clone.
   3. Choose the inverted yaw observation of the miscellaneous system (see step 2) as the offset.
5. Position the utility object by adding a USBL system to the Orion object:
   1. Use 'Optimal Ranging Orion' as driver & set the appropriate port settings
      
   2. Use the CoG of the Orion as the transducer position
   3. Use the CoG of the utility object as the USBL target

Miscellaneous System

Use 'Optimal Ranging Orion' as driver and provide the proper port settings.

All slot ID's as described in the system chapter are available.

Systems

The following systems are decoded by the driver:

Pitch, Roll & Heave

Pitch and roll are decoded from the solution message. There is no heave in the message.

Gyro Compass

Magnetic heading is decoded from the solution message.

Multibeam Echosounder

A multibeam system is decoded from the solution message. This multibeam system consists of two 'beams'. Beam one indicates 'top of utility', beam two 'top of seabed'.

X,Y and Z coordinates of the footprints are calculated from the solution message in the following way:

USBL

A USBL system is decoded from the solution message. This USBL system gives the position of the detected point in the utility relative to the Orion.

X, Y and Z coordinates are calculated in the same way as beam 1 of the multibeamer system.

Miscellaneous system

All fields that are not decoded by one of the aforementioned systems, are available as a miscellaneous observation:
