1. INTRODUCTION
Cyberbase Serial 4200 (Man Machine Computer, MMC), is the latest model of National
Oilwell’s (NOI) control station. It is designed as a tool to improve the communication
between the operator and the machines/processes to be controlled. It is an ergonomic
workstation designed for continuous seated operation where it is possible to obtain
different type of information through a screen-based system. Total integration with other
systems is fully possible.
Cyberbase is a standard product from NOI based on standard software, electrical
hardware and mechanical parts.
1.1 General
This operation manual describes the operations in conjunction with the day-to-day
running of the Cyberbase
It is essential that the equipment operators have the required knowledge, education and
training before using the system.
Other Documents:
Service on equipment should be performed according to document
“Recommended service program for Cyberbase”
These documents can be supplied, Contact the Service department at NOI, Norway for

2. TRAINING
Training of operators to be familiar with the many adjustments and correct use is
required. This is important to maintain all the ergonomically features. The training can be
performed in NOI’s virtual training simulator or on one of the units in stock.

4. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 General
Operation of the Cyberbase System may vary depending on the application the system is
designed for. E.g. a Cyberbase applied to drilling operations may be slightly different from
a Cyberbase used for ROV control. However, the concept is the same: The combination
of a highly ergonomic design and powerful embedded computer technology give the
operator an optimal working environment, where the Cyberbase System's software
defines the control and monitoring facilities for any interactive working task.
The Cyberbase System is operated by means of integrated control devices and graphical
screens.
All control devices are found on the armrests of a Cyberbase unit:
• A mode switch which will enable the various control facilities in the Cyberbase System
• Joysticks for control tasks
• Keypads for control tasks
• A pointing device for pointing and clicking objects on the graphical screens (same
function as a mouse on a PC)
• A numerical keyboard for input of setpoints, alarm limits etc.
• Emergency stop/Shutdown buttons
All operational feedback and supervision and monitoring information are presented on the
graphical screens.
Independent of whether the control functions are enabled or disabled, all supervision and
monitoring facilities are always available on the graphical screens. However, access to
some facilities may be restricted, depending on the log-on code.
The Cyberbase unit is equipped with an ergonomic Recaro chair. The chair is constructed
to fulfil all requirements for seated operations. The chair can move up and down
electrically and be turned around manually. The seat can be moved back and forth
manually. The seat back and the neck rest can be adjusted manually. For Cyberbases to
be used in ships or other moving installations a lock for normal position can be installed.
The control devices are placed in front of the operator in a logical and functional way,
which makes the operation of the different systems easy. There is one joystick and
functional keyboard on each side of the chair for control of the equipment. In addition
there is a mode switch and emergency stop on the left control panel and a numerical
keyboard and a joystick mouse on the right control panel.
Each panel on the chair can be opened for service access to the components inside the
chair consoles.
There is no need for labels on the panel plates, as the function of the control devices are
displayed on the monitors, depending on the operation and state of process.
The following list describes the operation of the various functions on the chair unit.

The Cyberbase unit is equipped with two high quality LCD TFT displays in a common
display unit, the flat screen cabinet. The flat screen cabinet is constructed to fulfil all
requirements for visual inputs. The cabinet can be tilted to have the possibility of avoiding
reflexes on the screens and to ensure that different operators have the best viewing
conditions. There is also an adjustable sun screen on the cabinet to avoid obstructing
reflections from various light sources.
The following list describes the operation of the various functions on the display unit.
Adjustment: Description/features:
Display house angle • Step-less adjustable between +25°
from vertical position and horizontal
position. Adjusted by pulling the
lever under the black footlist under
the window in the Display house.
Adjustable sunscreen • Adjustable 190 mm in steps of
10mm by moving the lever under the
sunscreen to the left. While in the
left position the suns creen can be
moved to the position you want.
Monitor distance • Monitors placed in correct distance
from operator to avoid focusing
between process and
monitors/display. The distance can
not be adjusted, but the seat can be
adjusted back and forward.
Different seating positions • Free space for large foots. The black
foot list under the window can be
used as a footboard
• The feet can also be rested on the
pipe between the two columns
On Screen Manager. • All necessary adjustments for the
Adjusting the display settings. displays are operated through On
Screen Manager witch is easily
operated through switches on the
cabinet. There are two three
position switches per display. The
switches is located in the upper
right and left corner on the
aluminum back-plate, hidden of the
sunscreen.

7. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
This chapter describes the necessary maintenance for the Cyberbase unit in order to
ensure safe, reliable and economical operation.
7.1.1 Chair
Cleaning:
Panels: Use mild soap water for cleaning of the panel surface
Seat: Use special soap/water mixture.
Metal: Use mild soap water
Instruments: Use mild soap water
Preventive maintenance:
Apply grease on the rails for the seat to reduce wear/tear on the rails

Contact NOI service department for ordering information and description of how to
change the components. Order number for most of the components can also be found in
the Component list attached to the main document.
The following sections describe minor repairs and corrections for the main components.
Minor repairs can be carried out at customer facilities with assistance of NOI service
personnel or with personnel from customer in conjunction with procedures/instructions
supplied by NOI. Power supply to the unit should be off.
The equipment in the base can be accessed via hatches and the drawer on the right side
of the base. The belt for height adjustment can be replaced if broken. This is a complex
operation and requires detailed instructions by NOI.
Change of window:
Open the display cabinet as described above. Disconnect the display cables, dismount
the displays by unscrewing the four bolts in the corners. This is the only bolts holding the
display, therefore pay attention while doing this.
When both displays are removed, the black middle segment / displayframe can be
removed by unscrewing the 19 M5 bolts holding it. The window is being hold by this
displayframe, therefore pay attention while doing this.
Major repairs and modifications must be performed by NOI service personnel. The
modifications can be done at customer’s facilities or at NOI. Modifications must be done
in co-operation with the design basis for the Cyberbase and must be performed according
to the Cyberbase specifications.
