1 UMAS V P & V DESCRIPTION
UMAS V P & V is a system for operating pumps and valves from one or several workstations.
This system presents a graphic display of tank information, and has a reporting system that gives
warnings in case of system errors.
1 workstation consists of:

-Colour monitors
-Keyboard
-Pointing device (mouse/trackball)
-Buzzer ( acoustic warning)
Each workstation is connected to a computer. If there is more than 1 computer, the computers
communicate on a Computer-Ethernet network. The computers communicate with a common
control cabinet on a four-conductor (cord) serial communication.
In the control cabinet, UN 940 there are electronics controlling digital and analogue in- and
outputs.
The communication between the workstations and the PLC is monitored. In case of malfunction a
red warning will appear at the top off the screen (flashing):
Com. Error Pump & Valve (UN940) : Error on communication to P&V Control Cabinet,
UN 940.
P&V Prewarning : Prewarning in P&V Control System, Click on the
red flashing P&V Prewarning – button to check
failure
list.
In order to access tank data, the UMAS P&V is connected to the Tanksounding Cabinet UN980.
This communication works by serial connection.
(536068073.doc) page 4
2 OPERATION
The man-machine interface (MMI) is controlled by a computer running on the operating system
Microsoft Windows NT 4.0. The workstation operation is based on a pointing device (a mouse or a
trackball). The mouse controls a pointer on the screen. Sliding the mouse over any surface in the
direction moves the pointer is to move. The following lines describes the basics mouse techniques
used with Windows applications:
Point
Move the mouse until the tip of the pointer rests on the wanted item.
Click
Press and release the left button without moving the mouse.
Double-click
Click on the left mouse button twice in rapid succession.
Right-Click
Press and release the right button without moving the mouse.
Press
Press and hold down the mouse button.

4 VALVE OPERATION
The valves will be displayed on the screen with following status:
White = Closed
Blinking white = Changing from closed to open
Green = Open
Blinking green = Changing from open to closed
Blinking red = Alarm condition
To operate a valve, point at the valve and click. The valve will go to the opposite position.
4.1 VALVE TYPES:
1. Single coil valves:
Voltage out = open

No Voltage = closed
2. Dual coil valves:
This valve has two different outputs, one for open and one for close. The coil voltage is latched.
The difference: loss of power will cause valves with one coil to return to the closed position, while
two-coiled valves will remain in the same position as before.
4.2 PREWARNING CONDITIONS - VALVES
Prewarnings will be displayed in the P&V Prewarning List as a result of the following conditions:
1 - Feedback is “open” while the command is “close”.

2 - Feedback is “closed” while the command is “open”.
3 - No feedback
4 - The feedback is both “open” and “closed”.
The valve flashes red to indicate the alarm condition.
The alarm signal is delayed, in order to give the valve enough time to change position before the
alarm is set. The delay time for valve prewarning is adjustable from the P&V Config window.
(536068073.doc) page 10
4.3 MOTOR CONTROLLED VALVE - BHS
Motor controlled valves are operated by pressing down the buttons labelled “+” or “”. This will
make the motor run, and the valve will blink during operation. Feedback from the valve is
displayed on the screen as 0-100%, where 100% equals valve fully open. Valves with feedback
switches for open/closed, displays this with colours:
green = open
white = closed
yellow = mid possision
4.4 REMOTE
When the user opens a valve connected to a tank, UMAS P&V will order the tanksounding unit to
sound this tank. The tanksounding unit will go to REMOTE mode (This function may be
disabled).

7 TANKSOUNDING SYSTEM (DSF)
7.1 GENERAL
During normal operations the tanksounding unit will be in SOUND. All tanks will be sounded in
sequence. After the tanksounding unit has completed sounding a tank it will send the following
information about the tank to the UMAS P&V:
- tank number
- system status
- measure status
- level
- density
- volume
- max volume
- trim
The UMAS P&V will receive this information and immediately update the mimic and numerical
values in the windows.
7.2 REMOTE SOUNDING

When opening a valve connected to a tank, UMAS P&V will immediately order the tanksounding
unit to sound this tank. The tanksounding unit will switch to REMOTE mode (command) and
sound just this tank. If a tank has more than one valve connected, opening any of these valves will
cause the tanksounding unit to switch to REMOTE status.
When opening several valves at the same time, the tanks connected to these valves will be sounded
in sequence. If the valves are closed, the tanks will be omitted from the remote command. This is
to ensure that only tanks that are currently loaded/unloaded are updated, which makes a more rapid
updating possible.
The tanksounding unit will always go to remote mode when
valves belonging to tanks are opened. The exception is if the
command “Remote Activate” is switched to OFF. The top
menu present the Tanksounding status (DSF-Status):
Tanksounding: - Sound
- Remote
- Com.
- Error
To cancel REMOTE mode, click on the DSF-Status field at

the top menu, and press “Back To Sound” from the
DSF-input window.
(536068073.doc) page 14

Click the Tanksounding-Menu field in the TOP-MENU, and a pop-up for Tanksounding-
commands (DSF-input) will appear. Following commands can be operated:
- Back to Sound
- Density Man/Auto
- Remote Activate On/Off
- Buzzer On/Off
- Man. Trim Value
8.1 BACK TO SOUND

Clicking on "Back To Sound" orders the tanksounding unit to go to SOUND mode. That means
sequential sounding of all tanks, and termination of the REMOTE command. Opening a valve
after "SOUND" command activates remote command for all open valves into tanks.
8.2 DENSITY MAN/AUTO

Use this command for changing between man / auto density. The tanksounding unit will measure
the density for tanks that supports auto density. If the tanksounding unit is calculating density
automatic, an A (Auto) will appear before density value in tank symbols. Otherwise an M
(Manual density) will be displayed.
8.3 REMOTE
A window called “Remote” displays the status of the tanksounding unit. All tanks are listed in this
window, and those with status REMOTE will be listed in yellow. Activate this window by pressing
"R" on the keyboard or from the button in Monitoring-Menu window (Tank Overview + Menu)
labelled "R". If “Remote Activate” = OFF all tanks can be set to remote mode by clicking on the
desired tank. Click on the tank again to make the tank go back to sound mode.
(536068073.doc) page 18
8.4 REMOTE ACTIVATE

When the tanksounding unit is in remote mode (REMOTE ACTIVATE ON)
and it is necessary to update tanks without activating any valve, this can be
done by pressing the button labelled “Remote”. The command activates remote
mode for tanks without valves in the selected group e.g. "FO Settling.
8.5 REMOTE ACTIVATE ON/OFF

Normally when a valve connected to a tank is open, the UMAS V P&V give the tanksounding unit
order to sound just this tank. It is possible to set the remote activating OFF, and the tanksounding
unit will not enter remote mode when a valve is opened.
“RemoteAct” - Off will increase the update time for tank data, and is not recommended. The
tanksounding unit will sound all tanks in sequence. “RemoteAct” - OFF set the Standby parameter
in the tanksounding unit passive (see Ttanksounding Unit/DSF manual).
For using Standby with the tanksounding unit (see DSF manual) set the “RemoteAct” - ON.

9.3 CONTROLLING THE COMPRESSORS
Compressors are controlled equally to pumps. Click the status field of the compressor to open the
pop-up window.
Standby Mode (if available).

When a compressor is started, it will compress air into its air tanks. When the desired pressure is
reached the compressor stops and enters standby mode. The compressor will remain in standby
mode until the pressure falls below the pressure limit. Then the compressor switches back to run
mode and compresses air into the tanks until the wanted pressure is reached again. The standby
function is fully controlled by the compressor starter and therefore not accessible from the screen.
Yet, the starter gives feedback to the P&V Control system for monitoring when it has entered
standby mode.
9.4 PREWARNING
By use of level alarms an acoustic warning can be activated if selected.

Status is displayed as Buzzer: ON/OFF
On the screen, when a tank is in alarm condition, the bar will change to red.
After acknowledging of the alarm, the buzzer will be reset.
(536068073.doc) page 22
10 ECONOMYMETER
The economymeter monitors information of economic importance based on several signals

received from the automation system.
10.1 INPUT SIGNALS

The input signals to the economymeter are each engines fuel-rack position, which is used to
calculate the order, flowmeter input for each engine, which is used to monitor consumption, and
input from the speed log, which is used to calculate the speed and the distance travelled.
10.2 CALCULATION
The economymeter use the input signals to calculate current readings as fuel consumption for each
engine, total consumption for both engines, the speed of the vessel, consumption/hour, and
consumption / n.mile. Calculated values give a good indication of economic values, but be aware
that they are slightly incorrect.
(536068073.doc) page 23
10.3 MEASUREMENTS
The economymeter is equipped with two separate, but identical measurement fields, named Trip
and Accumulated. These fields contain information about measured fuel consumption for each
engine and total for both engines, travelled distance, average consumption / hour and n.mile. Each
field can be separately reset by pressing the Reset button. You will get a warning and a possibility
to cancel the reset if desired. The Trip field is meant to be used as a counter for each trip, while the
Accumulated field is meant to be used as a long-time counter.
10.4 SETTING UP THE ECONOMYMETER
By pressing the Setup button, you will enter the economymeter setup menu. From this menu you
can set the following parameters:
Max Speed: Calibration of the maximum speed of the vessel. This information is used to control
the speed graphs 100 % value. You can set the maximum speed in to ways:
1: Point the cursor at the value in the display, and click the left mouse button. You can now
enter the new maximum speed.
2: Run the vessel at maximum speed for about 5 minutes. Then point at the “Max-Speed”
button and click the mouse. The calculated current speed will now be used as max speed.
Max Fuel Consumption: Calibration of the maximum fuel consumption of the vessel. You can
do this in two ways:
1: Point the cursor at the value in the display, and click the left mouse button. You can now
enter the new value.
2: Run the vessel at maximum fuel consumption for about 5 minutes. Then point at the
“Max-Cons.” button and click the mouse. The calculated current consumption will now be
used as maximum consumption
(536068073.doc) page 24
11 ROLL INDICATOR
The Roll Indicator window presents the vessels rollangle and rolltime.
- Rollangle = List in degrees

- Rolltime = Time from max rollangle at port side, to max rollangle at starboard and back to
port.
- Average time/angle is the average of 8 roll periods
In addition to this, the sounding of the stab tanks and a graph (missing in the example) presenting
the recommended level in the stab tanks are shown in this window. The basis for this calculation is
the average rolltime.
A short User’s Guide is also available by pressing the button labelled Users Guide.

Valve Name on/off: Toggle valvenames visibility in system windows.
The parameters for Flange- and Valvenames are common for all computers in the system.
15.8 VALVE ALARM DELAY TIME

This parameter sets the time from valve error until prewarning condition. This is an approximate
value in seconds, depending on the cycle time of the PLC. The time must be set longer than the
valve action time (from open to closed position or opposite).
15.9 FILES
For saving/loading Tk.Names, Tk.Nr and Tk.Group

Configuration, click on “Files”. The configuration data can
be saved to a file or read from a file on the computer.
Group Config will be reset when changing Eprom on the
PLC. The files will be stored on C:\ and named Name.txt,
TkName.txt and Gr.txt.

16 EMERGENCY VALVE OPERATION
In case of PLC malfunction the PLC outputs can be diverted to the emergency switches in the
control cabinet. This is done by turning the emergency switch (key) to on. If the emergency
control switch is turned ON during normal operation, the user will be informed in the P&V
prewarning system. The emergency operation cards are placed in a 19" rack in the control cabinet.
Each switch is labelled with its valve number, and refers to the mimic drawings. Each valve has an
indicator (LED) showing if it is open (green) or closed (red).
CAUTION!
Single coil valves will switch to the position according to the switches in the panel when the
emergency key is turned. Activating the emergency control without being sure of the position
of the valves / switches may cause danger.
