Dear cctalk members,
I have the manual for the Raytheon RAYCAS V
Collision Avoidance System. The sections include
setup, operation, theory of operation, and
maintenance which includes complete schematics.
It is one three-ring binder about three inches
thick. If anybody wants this manual, contact me.
Historical note: If I remember correctly, it came
up in the Exxon Valdez hearings that the disaster
could have been avoided by the use of the RAYCAS
system that was installed on the ship, but it was
not enabled at the time of the disaster because
Exxon found the system to be too expensive to
maintain. -kurt
