 Introduction and Intended Use

This manual describes the necessary safety precautions and gives a brief overview of the functionality of the Nest Case, which is a part of the STRYDE Nimble System. The STRYDE Nimble system is a seismic acquisition system for professional use, and the Nest Case is used to recharge the batteries of the Nodes and Initialisation Device in this system. For operation and detailed description of the entire system, please refer to the STRYDE Operation Support Product File.

Product Overview

The Nest Case is a charging and data harvesting device that is used to charge up to 90 Nodes simultaneously (or a reduced number of nodes and some Initialisation Devices). Nest Cases can be combined to charge additional nodes, the Nest Case should only ever be operated indoors. The rack is powered by a single-phase supply.
Recharging of the Node battery and harvesting of the seismic data is performed by loading the Nest Case Shelf with 90 Nodes. The Nodes are then charged wirelessly using the QI charging standard. The rate of charge is regulated by an Integrated Circuit on the Node and will automatically cease once the battery charge reaches a pre-determined level.
Data harvesting is performed by a 1Gbit Ethernet connection, which is initiated by using the monitor and peripherals connected to the STRYDE System Case, loaded with the appropriate STYDE software, and connected via ethernet to the Nimble System.
The Nest Case are not available for consumers to purchase and are only sold to limited number of industrial customers who will have to sign confidentiality agreements before gaining access to the product and documents.

Equipment Operation

Operation of the Nest Case shall be carried out by trained personnel that are familiar with the STRYDE system.The Nest Case shall be operated indoors within the temperature range described in the technical specification. The Nest Case is a part of the STRYDE Nimble System and can be scaled to suit the customer’s needs by adding additional Nest Cases. The Nest Case will typically be located at the local operations hub for the duration of a seismic survey. The Nest Case shall be powered by a single-phase mains supply as described in the technical specification section.
The primary purpose of the Nest Case is to harvest data from and recharge the lithium ion batteries in the Nodes (and/or recharge the lithium ion batteries in the Initialisation Device) that are used for the seismic survey. The Nest Case shall only be used to recharge and harvest data from: Nodes that have been inspected for damage; and are clean and dry. Damaged Nodes shall not be used with the Nest Case and instead they should be decommissioned when returned to the local operations hub.

The Nest Case can recharge and harvest data from up to 90 Nodes simultaneously, accepting a tray of 90 Nodes (or up to 70 Nodes with 4 Initialisation Devices that are placed on a bespoke jig). The Nodes are placed into the magazine with the optical port facing upwards and the magazine are placed on to a Shelf and raised into the charging position by pushing down the level of the scissor lift. The STRYDE System Case connected to the Nimble System can then be used to monitor the state of charge and view diagnostics for each optical link. Recharging of the Nodes is done using the wireless QI standard, with each Node having its own battery management circuit that is used to regulate the rate of charge and terminating charging once the battery reaches a pre-determined level. The data harvesting is performed using a bespoke bi-directional optical link, the data from the Node is then packetized by the Nest board and sent over ethernet. The charging and harvesting time will take no more than 4 hours.

There are 90 Nest boards (corresponding to 90 Nodes), each with its own 100Mb ethernet link, these are routed to a switch where they are combined and then output over 1Gb ethernet. Charging shall be done away from flammable materials, and a fire extinguisher shall be within reach for emergency use. The outer case of the Nest Case shall only be cleaned when the outer water- tight lid is fitted. The outer case shall only be cleaned by hand with warm soapy water. All other parts of the Nest Case shall only be cleaned with a dry soft cloth. Don’t use alcohol or other cleaning solutions.
