However the M4 VDR can easily be expanded to a “full VDR”, e.g. meeting performance requirements and technical characteristics for ship borne voyage data recorders (VDRs) as required by the earlier published IMO Resolution A.861 and IEC 61996, In this manual the equipment is called VDR M4 where the description is the same and will be named S-VDR or “full VDR” only where necessary for separating the two different applications. Units The VDR M4 consists of following units: Main Unit (MU) composed of Data Collecting Unit (DCU) Board Audio Mixer Unit (AMU) Board Radar Grabber Unit (RGU) Board System Integration (SIU) Unit Board Ethemet switch / Firewall Unit (ETU) DC/DC Converter Power Supply Unit (PSU) There are 2 different types of PSU: 24V DC and 115/220 AC System Control Unit (SCU) Remote Control and Alarm Panel Final Recording medium (FRM) Placed in a capsule e.g. Protective Data Unit (PDU) or Hardened Voyage Recorder (HVR), or Simplified Hardened Voyage Recorder (S-HVR) Optional for S-VDR and for full WDR version there is also a Data Acqui mn Unit (DAU) for analogue and digital signals, There is also a Video Mixer Unit Board, to be placed in the Main Unit, if more than one radar/video source is recorded. ‘The MU, the PSU and the DAU are separate steel cabinets. They can be placed anywhere on the bridge or in the vicinity of the bridge. The SCU is a SD4-6 instrument to be placed at the conning navigation work station on the bridge. The daily user communication with the VDR Mi is via SCU. There is no display or other buttons on any unit. For service and closer communication with the VDR a portable PC/laptop can be connected to the MU. An external ship’s computer can also be connected via a local network. ‘The main memory of the VDR M4 is that in the FRM (Capsule). A copy of the capsule data can be stored on a (USB) memory stick in the MU, It can be used as a transfer 3(8) 3 G Consilium VDR M4 System Description Art No. 709542 A1 memory of data to and from the VDR. There is no other ship data memory built in the VDR, When the VDR M4 is network connected to an external ships computer, data can be stored there continuously. Replaying of data can be performed on any external PC with Consilium Player software installed and with data input via Ethemet or USB. MU ‘The main unit is a steel cabinet of approximately h600 x w500 x 230 mm for wall ‘mounting, It has one door and cable glands are in the bottom. The units are mounted in the cabinet as shown on figure below. VDR M4.0 Main Unit Sockets for cable connections are shown in the MU Installation Manual. DCU ‘The Data Collecting board can receive signals from 14 IEC 61162-1/NMEA sources but it can also communicate over two IEC 61162-2 / high speed NMEA and one channel S485. It has two opto isolated inputs for pulses (100-2000 / Nm) with 24 V power feed facility and four opto isolated digital (on/off) inputs. Two switching relays can be controlled. 4(8) 4 G Consilium VDR M4 System Description Art No. 709542 A1 AMU The Audio Mixer board can connect up to eight controlled microphones plus two VHF separated, on together four audio channels, There is also room for another four, not supervised, audio inputs. RGU ‘The Radar Grabber board can directly handle one radar input, which is sufficient to both S-VDR and “full-VDR” regulations. However if more radars or other video signals shall be recorded (ECDIS, Conning display etc) a special Video Mixer Unit, VMU, must be installed in the MU. si ‘The System integration unit includes the processor and intemal memory for supervising of the VDR M4 System ETU ‘The Ethernet switch Unit is for all external and internal Ethernet communication. DC/DC converter A separate DC/DC converter supplies the MU boards with needed DC power. PSU The Power Supply Unit is placed in a separate wall mounted steel cabinet of about the same size as MU. It can be fed with 230 VAC and with 115VAC as well as 24 VDC over optional converter. The PSU supplies the VDR M4 with 24 VDC. It also includes necessary batteries to power the VDR for the 2hours audio recording if ship’s emergency power is lost. That process is controlled by the STU in MU. scu The System Control Unit is a Consilium SD4 instrument type 6. It is an alarm and remote instrument for the VDR which must be placed at the conning navigation work station on the bridge. It has an incident button which will save data for longer time and 12 hours on a separate USB memory stick placed in the MU. Number and length of saved data sequences can be changed. The alarm function tells what type of alarm/alert or warning the VDR M4 is generating. Relay and serial outputs are available for external alarms or central alarm table. 5(8) 5 G Consilium VDR M4 System Description Art No. 709542 A1 FRM The Final Recording Medium is a capsule which is designed for “full VDR” or S-VDR_ demands. It saves data during 12 hours and then starts to erase the oldest information minute by minute. Data can be downloaded from the capsule to the USB-memory stick, an external laptop computer or other permanently network connected extemal PC on board the ship. DAU The Data Acquisition Unit is mounted in a separate steel cabinet of about the same size as MU. It can receive and transform to MU all type of analogue, digital( on/off) or synchro signals, occurring on instruments which must be recorded by a “full VDR”. The DAU is an optional unit, As the S-VDR has data available in IEC61162/NMEA format (except rarely from speed and heading), the DAU will normally not be needed at S-VDR. installations.

Radar A radar image is a raster-scanned image built up of one monochrome, or three video channels, red, geen and blue, and controlled by two synchronization signals, horizontal and vertical. The VDR M4 grabs (samples) one screen from each video source (up to four) and stores it GENERAL INFORMATION ‘Sampling of high bandwidth signals for adar display is technically complicated and requires some extea care to be wiged propedy ‘© Video connectors carry high bandwidth signals (up to 200 MHz), meaning that all elements of radar ‘output chain, cable and VDR Mé input, has to be matched to the nominal system impedance. It is ‘ot allowed to connect the VDR M4 input in panillel with a radar display, not even with short cables, Such a connection would ruin the signal to the VDR M4, as well as to the radar! © Bach radar / high-resolution screen to be connected, must be equipped with a proprietary video buffer unit.

The signal level shall be between 0,5V pp to 1,0Vpp. In some video formats, synchronization pulses are superimposed on the Green signal 8 | Bue Carries the blue intensity amplitude for each line. The signal level shall be between 0,5V pp to 1,0Vpp. v_ | vertical | Carries a short pulse (predominantly negative) for each new set of line scans Syne (complete images). The image update frequency is normally in the range of 50 to 85 Hz, The maximum signal level allowed is. +2,0V to -2,0V. H_ | Horizontal | Carries a short pulse for each new line. The line frequency depends on the Syne resolution and some other timing, and can be as high as 100 kHz. The maximum signal level allowed is +2,0V to -2,0V. Different signal combinations are possible, depending on the radar type. A monochrome sadat may have only one signal carrying intensity modulation (video) and horizontal and vertical synchronization, but all combinations are possible, up to the complete set described in the table above. ‘The VDR M4 is equipped with a fourinput video mulkipleser, giving the possibility to connect four different sources. CONNECTIONS Maio nie ~ Pate Connection of video sources to the VMU, at the bottom of the enclosure ‘The connectors are located on the underside of the enclosure and there may be markings on the metal plate itself to aid in connecting the cables. @Consilium VOR Installation Manual Art No. 7075961 ‘Video sources number 1-4 are connected from left to right, when viewing from the enclosure front ‘The red signal connector is closest to the edge, while the horizontal sync, is closest to the bulkhead. CONFIGURATION ‘The radar signal acquisition requires extensive configuration activities to adopt the VDR Mi frame grabber software to the radar signal format. A software utility to analyze signals in different formats is available and is described in the “Entering and Updating the Static Configuration Data” chapter of this handbook. Make sure that cable connectors are readily accessible, to be able to interchange cables depending on the results obtained from these tests. IDENTIFYING WIRES ‘To make it easier to identify the coaxial cables they should be labeled, as in the picture above. Preferably the cables should be labeled i both ends at the time they are connected in the radar end. If there is more than one video source involved, also label the cable sets with the source number.

VHF/Communications Audio Connecting VHF / communications audio to the VDR M4 is similar to connecting microphones. ‘These signals are also brought to the MU audio mixer Installation planning documents should tell you where to find the signal ourputs. It should be noted that connecting the VDR M4 directly to the VHF equipment loudspeaker output is not sufficient, since ir will only record received audio. Any auxiliary device used to feed auelio signals from the VHF set should be approved or supplied by the VHF manufacturer to ensure that type approval is not violated.

General Notes on Cables and Connections 8.1. On Cable Dimensions and Standards 8.1.1. Signal Cables © Allcables us «d for signal interconnection of the VDR M4 system units shall have a cross section of 0.5 mm? with a voltage rating of atleast 60 volts. ‘© If the specifications state “ewisted pair”, such cable should be used. @ Consilium VOR Installation Manual Art No. 7075961 ‘If the specifications stare a sereen should be used, ether an aluminum foil screen with an inkid, blank, stranded conductor, oF tinned copper braid should be use Using any other cable type will void warranty. For your own convenience, please use a cable with numbered conductors. This makes identification ‘much easies, and minimizes the sisk of mis-connections. The directions in this manual assume cables with numbered conductors 8.1.2, DC Power Cables ‘© Allcables used for supplying DC power in the VDR Mi system shall have a cross section of at least 15 mm? with a voltage rating of at least 120 volts. ‘© The installation directions may specify a heavier eross section Using any other cable type will void warranty. To avoid problems with voltage drops across longer suns of cable, increase the cross section as appropriate. For your own safety, use cable with colored conductors, preferable one red part for the positive voltage and one black part for negative retuen, AC Power Cable ‘* Allcables used for supplying AC power in the VDR Mi system shall have a czoss section of atleast 1.5 mm? with a voltage eating of at least 500 volts ‘© ‘The cable must be UL registered, for the environment in which itis used. ‘The cable must have three conductors, colored blue, brown and yellow-green. ‘The yellow-green pat is to be used for grounding only. Failing to use UL registered cable will void warranty. Follow established electrical safety regulations when selecting and using high voltage cabling, 8.2. On Cable Types 8.2.1. On Twisted Pairs ‘© ‘Twisted pair means two wires twisted together in a special noise-canceling configuration. ‘Two twisted pairs means two separate sets of two wires twisted together, not four wites rwisted together The twied pair is a it that by its ewist protects itself from the eavisonment, and protects the eavizonment (Such as, the pair next (0 it) om itself. The pitch of the twist is carefully calculated to maximize the noise-canceling properties, which is nor the case with ordinary multipole cable 8.2.2, What is Not a Twisted Pair All cables with two of more parts are twisted for manufactusing reasons. This does not mean any twwo-conductor cable isa twisted pais If the specification says “two twisted pairs” this is for a good reason, ie, noise reduction, Do not use nvisted quads or ordinary multi-pole cable, whieh also has somewhat rwisted parts @ Consilium VOR Installation Manual Art No. 7075961 Ina twisted quad the signals in one pair will ceoss-couple to the other pais, bec lose, and because one pair has no means of protecting itself from the other pair. se they are so. In an ordinary multi-pole cable, the noise-canceling properties are random or unknowa. What one does know, is that cross-coupling between the individual wires is bound to occus. 9. General Notes on EMI 9.4. EMI Electromagnetic Interference is everywhere. It is the unwanted signal component that diseupts yout system, creates unwanted noise in the audio channels, or causes the system to go dowa at irregular intervals. If EMI is not counter-acted at instalation time, it will be very costly to troubleshoot and change the system later. Intermittent faults with an EMI background are almost impossible to find, ‘The main unir has been manufactured with EMI protection in mind, but counter-productive witing could very well spoil the whole construction. 9.2. Termination of Signal Cables To seduce the tisk of © EMTinduction © Intermittent faults * Excessive noise of audio channels © Entanglement © Short cizcuits © Mix-ups and to ease re-dressing of cabling and se-connections after service, al signal cables used for VDR. ‘M4 connections should be terminated in the manner descsibed here: ‘* If the connection block terminals in the VDR M4 ase of the press type, we recommend you to use Dare wires ‘© If sesew connectors - the blank, stranded ends of the wire should be terminated with end eaps, sce picture below. —!/ = End \ Caps ‘The free ends should be As short as possible hort as possible, preferably around 10 — 15 millimeters. This tends to make connecting more difficult, but greatly reduces the risk of EMI induction, ‘The end caps must be crimped with the proper tool, Never use pliers or crimp-tools intended for anything else than end caps. @ Consilium VOR Installation Manual Art No. 7075961 esl ishanbbonshibiabsbcoesbbib i anihAs Excamples of proper tools jor rimping end cap, and a snip of ond caps Where there is risk hat the shield wire might make short cicenit to anythiyg, solder traces, other wires, chassis, bulkhead, etc, it must be protected with a slip-on plastic tube or shrink tubing Remember that the sereen is not to carry any current or signal, it is only sereen. In the case of twisted paie wire, be suse to use the wires in the proper pairs, i. in the case of the microphone, the microphone signals should use one pair, and the loudspeaker the other pair. If you mis pairs, the noise-canceling properties of the twisted pair is lost, 9.3. On Shields Shields should never be connected i sereen “for safety” or “for good measu Joop the will let noise slip into the system. both ends of the cable, unle ” could be devastating to ne expressly noted. Grounding a ¢ immunity, forming a ground The reason for this is that the chassis (bulkhead) potential is never the same in both ends of the cable. Although the ship is made of steel, large currents flowing through the hull may easily generate a potential difference of several volts aceoss 100 meters of the ship. ‘The result is that noise cusrent will stat lowing from the “high” end of the screen to the “low” end, maybe several amperes. On the way, it will induce into the signal leads, causing signal degradation and improper opesition of the VDR M4 unit. 9.4. On Cable Placement Never steap high-cusrent, noisy cables together with sensitive signal cables, shielded or unshielded. ‘The reason is once again to avoid noise induction. Two cables lying tightly together work like a transformer, the noise in one easily coupling to the other. The cheapest measure of noise seduction in any design, is to keep seastive cables away from noisy cables. Doing this atthe installation stage is much cheaper than faul-finding and re-engincering i lates, @ Consilium VOR Installation Manual Art No. 7075961 Tr should be noted that in some eases it will be necessary 10 allocate more than one input for a recording channel, for instance auclder order and response, as the signals may be output from different succes, sequiting wo VDR input channels. @ Consilium VOR Installation Manual Art No. 7075961 10.

Power Supply Unit 707400 emcee |= J lo. OTS 6.1. Principle of operation The PSU provides the function of providing continuous nominal 24 VDC power to the VDR during normal operation and mains failure. The system isa so called direct power system, ie, the rectifiers provide power to the load (VDR) while charging the batteries. ‘The unit is equipped with an alarm interface, RS232, which communicates with the VDR. The backup power is provided by valve-egulated batteries and is dimensioned to operate at minimum 2 hours ‘Alarms are sent to the VDR when and if. The AC mains fail — The battery breaker is tripped. The breaker is supervised via an auxiliary switch placed together with the breaker. (NOTE! On early models the auxiliary switch is triggered only when the breaker is tripped by over current) — The battery voltage is to low, <20V. ‘Two minutes afier shut down command from the VDR the PSU is shut down, during this time the PSU is sending information to the VDR that the PSU will be shut down, If battery voltage is below 19 V the PSU is also shut down. The PSU is housed in an IP44, splash proof, cabinet, which is intended to be mounted on a wall. Only front access is required to operate the PSU. 6 (16) @Consilium VDR Power Supply Manual Art No. 70740242 6.2.
