Hey everyone. I've been trying to put the idea of making a Mini, when i say
Mini i mean as small as possible ROV together. i plan on using a
PLC control circuit to make the
controls easier. BUT i am having some troubles designing the wiring circuit. i
plan on using 24V output voltage from the
PLC to control Relay's that will
control the motors. The tether i have decided to use is has 6 conductors and a
Cat5e with 4 UTP's. i was planning on using 4 (2 pos 2 neg) of the conductors
to power the thrusters, and another pair for a univ. bus bar for cameras,
lights ect. i was wondering if anyone had the time or had something similar to
this already done, and if so could they share a wireing diagram with me? i
will need 1 UTP to xmit video. so that leaves 3 pairs for control. i was
planning to have 2 thrusters on the outsides to provide forward/reverse and 2
thrusters providing div! e functions. i can change up the wiring arrangment if
someone has a better idea but as for the tether thats pretty much fixed. the
only change i could make is going to 12 conductors instead of 6
