A system for electronically controlling a reel assembly for deploying a cable, hose or umbilical connection may include an electronic control unit and an electro-pneumatic drive. The electronic control unit may receive input from an operator and cause the electro-pneumatic drive to operate to control a cable spool. For example, the electronic control unit may allow an operator to rotate the reel, stop rotation of the reel, increase or decrease the speed of rotation of the reel, increase or decrease pressure and/or line tension, and/or select between a normal mode of operation and a tensioning mode of operation. The electronic control unit may include a touchscreen. The electro-pneumatic device may include electric components, pneumatic components, and/or electro-pneumatic components. An electrical interface may be provided for connecting a remote control unit. The electrical interface may be wired or wireless. The remote control unit may enable an operator to control one or more reel assemblies and may allow an operator to take over control of a reel assembly via the remote control unit. Sensors may be provided on a turn down sheave that directs the cable, hose or umbilical connection toward a BOP stack. The sensors may provide information to the electronic control unit, such as a measured line tension and/or a length of cable, hose or umbilical connection that has been deployed. |
