reliable.

The Operator Workstations provide full colored graphic displays, functional keyboard.
The Graphic user interface in the man-machine interface provides standard and
customized mimics through colored graphic display, and for each display including the
graphic interface a button on; the functional keyboard.

Alarm Function
This System raises Alarm whenever a coming analog value exceed it’s limit, or when
digital contacts are closed/opened on 3 alarms window, alarm page, dedicated mimic
diagram with buzzer output signal. The Operator acknowledges the alarm status through
keyboard or mimic.

Alarm Group Function

All alarms and monitored values are divided into Alarm Groups. Any alarm can only be
part of one group. Each alarm group has a dedicated button on the operator function
keyboard. If only standard personal computer keyboard is provided the operator
function keyboard is displayed on the color graphics display and works in the same way
as the physical panel. Active alarms are indicated by a flashing light (unacknowledged
alarm) or steady light (acknowledged alarm).

Alarm Type Function

• Alarm detection for analog signals
The following functions are included:
- Instrument (Sensor) failure alarms.
- Engineer Low indication alarms
- Low-low process alarms.
- Low process alarms.
- High process alarms.
- High-high process alarms.
- Engineer high indication alarms.
- Time delay of alarm triggering and return to normal messages.

1.3.3 System Architecture

The system is composed of Upper- and Lower-level systems. The Upper-level system
is composed of a Dual server system that manages the overall ship machinery
information and a Client system that provides monitoring and control functions to
users via graphic screen. The Lower-level system is made of a Distributed system
format that allows acquisition and control of input/output at location in hand. It is also
composed of an Independent Control Processor module and an easy-to-expand I/O

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

processor module.

The process-bus used for communication between the I/O control processor (A2E-
MPM)s and the server is the ARCnet fieldbus network. The ARCnet-bus has a very
high deterministic performance. Systems with a high number of local stations or
communication with Extension Alarm Systems, other system interface,
Communication control unit may be added to the fieldbus network.

Another process-bus used for communication between the System Server and
Extension Alarm System is Multi-Drop Asynchronous Communication. The Multi-
Drop Communication has a transfer of the extended alarm management to and from the
engine control room or bridge.

[Fig. 1-4] Typical configuration drawing for a monitoring/control of shipboard

The system is operated through a number of a Operator Workstations. These are

normally located in the Engine Control Room. Additional stations may be located in
the bridge, cargo control room, ship’s office or other parts of the ship. The Operator
Workstation are fitted with color graphic displays and are operated both using a
standard PC keyboard and mouse or through a purposely built Operator Function
Keyboard.
The Operator Workstations provides the operator with a number of standard graphic
display containing information about machinery and cargo equipment. The also
provides control of the I/O Control Processors (A2E-MPMs) by standard graphic
display.

The full monitoring and control facilities are provided in both machinery space and
the Engine Control Room. The alarm facilities are provided for unmanned machinery
space, and the alarm management signal alert the bridge or the engineer in the duty’s
cabin, and the Extension Alarm System alert the off duty engineers. This allows both
machinery space and engine control room to be safely left unmanned, while the
machinery alarm state is operated in bridge control.

All Operator Workstation has a modular and flexible system structure, with a

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc -7 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

computer capacity that is fully distributed to all control room stations, by use of a
microprocessor technology. This System is designed to meet the classification of
society's requirements for a periodically unmanned engine room operation. The design
conforms to all rules and regulations, and all types of module are acceptable. In
addition, this System is highly reliable.
Operator Workstations provide full colored graphic displays, functional keyboard.
Graphic user interface in the man-machine interface provides standard and customized
mimics through colored graphic display, and for each display including the graphic
interface button the functional keyboard.

Operator Workstations are interconnected via dual redundant local area network
(LAN). Although every Operator Workstation is identical, access to operation
functions may be configured differently according to machinery/cargo parts. The
monitoring and control availability is defined by extensive use of operator privilege
level or password access. Some Operator Workstations such as the units located in the
ship office or office room are normally used for monitoring only. These units will not
allow acknowledgement of alarms or execution of control commands for control
equipments. All general information such as monitoring alarms, trends, reports and
machinery/cargo graphics are available for monitoring.

When ever a variable or parameter changes significantly the I/O Control Processor
(A2E-MPM)s updates the database in each of the Operator Workstations. This means
that data displayed at any Operator Workstation is always up-to-date. There is no need
to request data each time the operator wishes to inspect a variable. As a result of this,
the data traffic on the process bus and the Local Area Network is kept to a minimum,
giving extremely fast data access. The Operator Workstation serves as the database
host for process data, engineering data and software. Software for Operator
Workstations and the different I/O Control Processor (A2E-MPM)s are stored here.
They include functions for database down loading of parameters to the I/O Control
Processor (A2E-MPM)s at engine control room.

1.4 System components

The following paragraph contains a description of each of the main system component
of the Integrated Control and Monitoring System with process control for machinery
and cargo management.

The following system components are described:

• Operator Workstation
• Local Station
• System Communication Unit
• Extension Alarm System
• Protocol Converting Unit
• Ship Network Interface

1.4.1 Operator Workstation

The Operator Workstations are extremely user-friendly. Intuitive operation is achieved

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc -8 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

by applying high resolution graphic mimic diagrams on the color graphic screen
together with a dedicated Operator Function Keyboard and trackball. The Operator
Workstations are built around a type approved marine personal computer equipped
with Pentium style processors, Windows operating system and redundant Ethernet
networking. A so-called main and back-up station are delivered as a standard in order
to further ensure safety and reliability.

The Operator Workstation is a type approved personal computer, connected to a color

graphics display and a printer. Operator input is either done through a standard
computer keyboard or through our custom made Operator Function Keyboard. The
Operator Function Keyboard is a specially designed keyboard that provides easy
access to the different operator functions. It is divided into separate function. The
buttons are combined with lamps to indicate alarms, status of the Extension Alarm
System and to indicate the main system functions. The Operator Control Panel is in
many cases connected to an external ”sound off” and “acknowledge” button.

[Fig. 1-5] Operator Function Keyboard

The graphic mimic pages in the Operator Workstation provides a detailed overview of
ship’s machinery and cargo. A valve e.g. can be selected on the Operator Workstation
by pointing to the valve with the trackball. A pop-up menu appears and a selection can
then be made to open or close the valve.

The Operator Workstation can be supplied with a printer, alarm printer and log printer
used for automatic alarm/normal printing and demand printing. When a server detects
an alarm condition, the alarm is identified by a flashing indicator on the color graphic
screen and on the Operator Function Keyboard. The alarm is displayed on the color
graphics display, a buzzer is turned on and the alarm printer automatically prints the
alarm. By pressing the button associated with the flashing indicator more detailed
alarm information is displayed on the color graphics display.

Detailed sensor information for any local station, such as alarm or normal status data,
can also be shown on the color graphics display. Analog sensor data can be displayed
as a bar-graph or a trend curve style. The system can display the latest alarms for each
alarm group individually or all active alarms.
The alarm printer and the color graphics display record all status changes, such as
alarm acknowledgements and alarm condition cleared. When all alarm conditions are
cleared, the system returns to normal. Alarm conditions such as alarm limits and alarm
delays are adjustable from the operator in engine control room.

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc -9 -

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

The Operator Workstation is used when transferring machinery watch responsibility

between the bridge and the engine control room. Selecting the engineer for watch-call
duty is carried out from here, and all available engineers, whether on duty or not, may
be called to the engine control room in the case of an emergency.

1.4.2 Local Station

General
A number of different local stations are available for different input and output
processing. The main functions of the local stations are to monitor analog or digital
point and to provide analog and digital output to different machinery devices. All units
have the same mechanical construction and are built using the same electronic design
principles.

Local stations are composed of two parts modules, Redundant I/O Control Processor
and a number of I/O Modules. Independent I/O Control Processors equipped with I/O
Modules execute control and monitoring functions. The modules are mounted on a
cabinet close to ship’s sensors and actuators in order to minimize cabling. Each input
and output channel is equipped with a LED for normal/fault status indication and a
channel identification text label. A redundant I/O Control Processor equipped with I/O
modules acts as an independent stand-alone control and monitoring systems that fulfils
classification and ship owner requirements.

The main characteristics of the local stations are:

• Status LED indicators on the housing for power, operation, run, fault information.
• Three-way isolation between:
- I/O and power, I/O and field-bus, Power and field-bus.
• Single printed circuit board design.
• Easy service replacement by dipswitches or jumpers.
• Dual redundant high-speed I/O bus between I/O Control Processor and I/O modules
• Software and configuration parameter can be downloaded into the unit.

Each I/O Process Unit contains its own high-speed microprocessor. These are
programmed for a number of different tasks such as detecting when a monitored signal
move outside set limits. Unwanted alarms are inhibited during start-up and shut-down
of the machinery. Status information is continuously monitored by the Operator
Workstations through the system network.
When an unacceptable condition is detected, the I/O Process Unit and Operator
Workstation generates an alarm signal, identifies the responsible sensor, and provides
information about the condition.

The following gives a short description of each I/O Processing Unit type:

I/O Control Processor (A2E-MPM)

These units composed a two I/O Control Processor for redundant function. The

1.4.3 System Server With Communication Control Unit

The System Servers are used as a network server between the ARCnet fieldbus and the
Local Area Network. The main purposes of System Servers are to provide galvanic
isolation between different parts of the network and to segregate fieldbus traffic in
large system. Messages are then converted between the network parts, while seamless
networking.

The System Servers provide a service to protect I/O Processing Units and the
Extension Alarm System connected to the ARCnet fieldbus network. If the
communication with one node fails, the System Servers will generate a system
communication failure message identifying the node and the failure.

The System Server is a two channel ARCnet fieldbus to dual Local Area Network
gateway. Its main task is to receive messages from the two ARCnet fieldbus, and
update the Operator Workstation. Handling operator commands and downloading of
parameters and software from the Operator Workstation to the nodes are handled as
well.

The System Server functions as an intelligent message converter sending and receiving
data between any of its ARCnet fieldbus and units located on the Local Area Network.
The converter function will pre-process ARCnet messages and load them into a local
database for distribution.
All necessary configuration and software installation is done through the Local Area
Network. Galvanic isolation is provided between the 24V power input and the System
Server interfaces.

1.4.4 Extension Alarm System (A2E-EAS)

The Extension Alarm System is used to indicate and accept the transfer of machinery
watch responsibility between bridge and engine control room. When the bridge has the
machinery watch responsibility, one or more engineers must be on call. A general
alarm signal will call them to the engine control room if an alarm condition arises. The
alarm indication on the Extension Alarm System is that a buzzer sounds and common
alarm lamp is flashing. When an alarm is acknowledged in the engine control room, or
the situation is cleared, appropriate indications are given on the Extension Alarm
System.

[Fig. 1-8] Extension Alarm System

The Extension Alarm System prevents the bridge from assuming watch responsibility
if no engineers are assigned to on call duty. The bridge personnel may call the
engineers on-duty in their quarters at any time, for consultation etc.
Acknowledgements of such calls are provided.
To set the machinery watch responsibility system to bridge mode one or more
engineers must be on call. When an alarm condition arises a general alarm signal is
sounded in the duty engineer’s rooms and in the public areas. The visual alarm
indication on the Extension Alarm System consists of common alarm lamp.

Alarm indication can be provided when the bridge is not having the machinery watch.
Indicators show when an alarm has been acknowledged in the engine control room but
the buzzer is not sounded.
If the engineer does not acknowledge within a specified period of time, the alarm
signal is repeated in the engineer’s quarters, and on the bridge, until it is acknowledged.
The system can also be used to call an engineer to the bridge or the engine control
room without an alarm condition.

1.4.5 Protocol Converting Unit(A2E-PCU)

This Protocol Converting Unit is possible to interface with third party system such as
Load Master, VDR and other system. Normally, this system receives required data
from the third-party system through international or industrial standard serial link
(RS232/422/485) and through System Server for TCP/IP LAN link and display it on
proper field of HMI.

1.5.2 System Software Functions

Alarm Generating Function

This System raises alarm when a coming Analog value excess it’s limit, and when
digital contacts are closed/opened on 3 alarms window, alarm page, dedicated mimic
diagram with buzzer output signal.
The operator acknowledges the alarm through keyboard or mimic.

Time delay function

All alarm point (channel), digital input and Analog input, has a time delay function
from 1 sec to 9999 sec. In 5-second delay, the alarm message is displayed on monitor
after 5 second

Alarm limit value change

The alarm limit value can be changed on mimic for all analog input points.

Inhibit Function
All input points have an inhibit function, which is used manually for preventing the
alarm occurrence. The Alarm will be given automatically, when the operator releases
the inhibit function in alarm condition.

Suppress function
Some of the alarms are conditional and will be blocked when a specified condition is
present. For instance when the main engine is stopped, the lubrication oil pressure falls
and should normally have triggered an alarm condition. Since this is quite normal the
alarm is blocked. This function is started by defining a signal as an inhibit signal for a
specified alarm or a specified group of alarms. An adjustable time delay for each
signal is available to extend the blocking situation.

Alarm acknowledge
It is possible to acknowledge the alarms status while a mimic window, an alarm group
or an alarm summary is displayed. Alarm acknowledgement for separate or group
alarms displayed on the screen is done through a single push of the same pushbutton.

Slow Down Function

When some particular point come to the system via I/O cards, the system will run it’s
own program to calculate the condition and generate main engine slow down output
signal through digital output card.
Slow down signals should also be decided by purchase specification.

Exhaust Gas Calculation Function

This Exhaust gas monitoring system calculates the deviation between the individual
cylinders and the average value of all cylinders. An alarm is given if the deviation
exceeds the acceptable limit.
This system calculated the exhaust gas Mean value and Deviation value. The Mean
value is the average value of each main engine cylinder. The Deviation value is

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc - 18 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

difference of value between the Mean value and each cylinder.

When the Deviation value exceeds high limit, normally 50, the System generates alarm
and in the case of high-high limit excess, normally 60, the System generate the slow
down command signal. The Mean value does not affect the raising of alarm or the
slow down signal if the value is below 200 degree C.

Running hours & counters

To improve the maintenance plan and to decide which component needs overhauling,
it is important to know the Running Hours for each component. The system running
hours function keeps track of the running hours for selected pumps, fans, compressors,
purifiers & generators etc., and presents the result to the operator on demand.

1.5.3 Process Control Functions

All data acquisition, signal conditioning, signal scaling and process control is
performed by each individual I/O Processing Unit. This solution guarantees that any
local operation is available even if the Operator Workstations are not functioning.

Device Control Function

The control command from the client station to the device is sent to the I/O Module via
a controller and the I/O modules execute the command. The controllable devices in
this system are as follows.
• Cargo / Ballast Pump Control
• Hydro. Pump Control
• On/Off Valve Control
• Position Valve Control
• Memory Valve Control

Device Status Monitoring Function

The monitoring system collects and analyzes information about the ship status, levels
of tanks and status of pumps and valves and shows them on the screen.
• Level Indication for the Cargo / Ballast Tank
• Temperature Indication for the Cargo Tank
• Pressure Indication for the Cargo Tank
• Pump Status Indication
• Valve Status Indication

Stand by Pumps Function

Pump control is located in the I/O Control Processor in the I/O Processing Unit’s.

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc - 19 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Remote controlling is available from the Operator Workstations in two ways:

- Through the stand by pump mimic diagrams.
- Through a mimic diagram included in the Monitoring and Control system.

• Stand by start at low pressure

When the pressure drops below the limit set the stand by pump automatically starts.
The limit may be adjusted if an Analog sensor is used.
• Inhibit stand by start
The Starting of the stand by pump is blocked after a blackout or, when a group start,
until the pressure has built up. The stand by logic can also be inhibited by an
external condition, such as “main engine stopped”, “aux engine stopped” or a similar
condition.
• Restart after blackout
Some units have to be automatically restarted after a blackout. These units are
included in the start sequence. The delay time defined in the I/O Processing Units
pump logic determines the start sequence. The operator can adjust the sequence
timing.
• Group start of pumps
Remote controlled pumps can be started in sequence.
• Alarms from the stand by pump logic
- Stand by start alarm.
- Auto start fail or trip.
- Non stand by alarm (indicates that a stopped pump is no longer in stand by
mode).

Sensors: Pressure switches or Analog sensors may be used for the control of the
functions.
Limits: All limits are downloaded from the remote Operator Workstation as part of
its database. Limits may be adjusted by the Operator or at the Operator Workstation.

Configuration: To maintain redundancy in a two or three pump system, the signals

from the motor starters and the process are normally routed to different I/O
Processing Unit’s. This configuration allows the system to work even if one of the
I/O Processing Unit fails. The stand by pump logic is also active when the Operator
Workstation is down.

Valve control

The Valve control is located in the I/O Processing Unit’s. Remote controlling is
available from the Operator Workstations through mimic diagrams.

• Valve Types :
Single Acting Valve: This valve type is controlled by one digital output signal.
The valve-position (closed or open) is given by the signals of one or two limit
switches.
Double-Acting Valve: This valve type is controlled by two digital output and

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc - 20 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

two input signals. The valve is opened or closed by pulsing a relay.

Double-Acting Valve with Position Control: This valve type is controlled by
two digital outputs; two digital inputs and an analog input signal. The valve
position is set within a defined dead band by pulsing a relay.

• Additional functions
In addition, the following functions are available as part of the valve control
system.
- Pulsed output.
- Automatic closing of a set of valves.
- Automatic opening or closing of valves.
- Close on an analog setpoint, using deadband.
- Low-level Auto CLOSE Valve, remote OPEN/CLOSE function. Close when a

3. DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION ALGORITHM

This provides Ship Control Function that performs data acquisition of an actual site for
each function, algorithms on controls, display of controlled results by real-time
processor, and is implemented for application of adapted functions related to Logic
processing.

3.1 Basic Concept of Function Algorithm

All the Functions such as I/O, PID that I/O Processing Units manages must be registered
as a single Tag, and the relevant database must be designated. Therefore, define these
series of data composition must be designed as a single Function Block. The Figure 2-1
represents the relationship related.

Function Tag Name F.C Record No. Input Blocks . . . .

Block
   

[Fig. 3-1] Function Block Structure

 Tag Name: Name for a single Function Block, as well as a name of a record
registered in Database.
 Function Code: Classify the type of Functions that the relevant Function Block
must accomplish.
 Record No.: Location of record, that is, where Function Block is stored in the
relevant database.
 Input Blocks: Indicate the Function Block Tag Name in case the other Function
block's data is needed

3.1.1 Concepts of building Function Algorithm

To manipulate the shipboard control process, the organic relationship between multiple
functions must be accomplished. In order to do, so, our system adopts the Building of
Function Blocks explained previously.
For more representation, let's start with a simple control loop example.

[Fig. 3-2] Simple Control-Loop process

The upper figure represents the logical block map, which consists of three Functions,

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc - 86 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

such as AO, PID, and AI. (the Input for Operator Configuration Value is regarded as
built-in function of PID.)

[Fig. 3-3] Logical Block Map of Control-Loop

Therefore, these basic three functions blocks must be written as database to construct
those control algorithms, so that each element can accomplish other things. The Figure
in the right side represents the Block Map that this system uses.

More descriptions are as follows.

 The AI Function Block reads actual value from external Analog input machine and
stores them in the Block address '1000'. (the Output address is fixed
automatically)
 The PID Function performs PID calculation using the value taken from the Block
Address '1000' as process value, and stores the result in the Block address '1012'.
(the Set Point is supposed to be controlled by the Operator directly. The Output
Address is fixed automatically)
 The AO Function Block takes the value from Block address '1012', the result of
PID control, and transmits the value to the external Analog Output device.

The construction of control algorithms for this system can be summarized that each
Function Block is assigned for Block address. So, these processes are called as a
'Building Function Block'.

Basically, the Relevant Base Database Files for each process are stored in individual
directory to manage the database of the Operator Station. And the collection of database
files is called a single Resource. Figure 2-4 represents the structure of the Database file
directory.

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc - 87 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

[Fig. 3-4] Database file directory structure

Each Database is stored in ACONIS.DB files and directory. And they are divided in
several subdirectories, in which store database files can be downloaded as a single
process or a single I/O Processing Units. A directory sorted this way is called a Single
Resource.
Therefore, during the I/O Processing Unit configuration, the relevant I/O Processing
Unit must be defined to manage a particular process or work, that is, to be assigned a
particular Resource. Besides, the Dual of I/O Processing Unit is simply accomplished by
assigning the same resource to the redundant I/O Processing Unit elements.

3.2 Overview of Function Algorithm

3.2.1 Common database fields

Each parameter, Tag name, upper/lower marginal value, and so on which consists of
Function Code are written, stored and managed as database form. The database forms
are provided individually, so the types and numbers of field that consists of Function
Code are totally different. But there are a lot of common fields that almost every
Function Code Database has. , so the descriptions on them are to be provided

• TAG NAME :
Describe the representative name for relevant Function Block. Defining Tag name

A2KE_V1.1_R6.doc - 88 -
ACONIS-2000E
INSTRUCTION MANUAL

needs the following suggestions because the tag name is the right key for access of
all databases
- Combination of alpha-numeric characters in uppercase/lowercase or special
characters(except '.') without space in between.
- Size : Maximum 16 characters
- Duplicated Tag name within a single resource can not be used.
- Records without Tag name definition can not be registered as database.

actual result of Function Block, in case the field is registered as 1.
- 0 : automatic 1: manual
• OALARM (On Alarm) :
When the relevant Function Block is executed, this field is to determine whether the
alarm process of abnormal status for upper/lower marginal value and various kind of
limitations is executed or not, so the field must be filled with 1 to make alarm on
various kind of limitations. If the field is filled with 0, the control operator of I/O
Processing Unit doesn't examine the possibility of alarm process.
- 0 : alarm disable 1 : alarm enable

range of dead band, as the transmission to Operator Station doesn't occur if the
difference is within the range of dead band.
• ADEL (Alarm Dead band) :
In conjunction with the alarm Process of the Function Block in Analog, alarm
process must be performed only if the current handling result is exceeding the range
of dead band, but not activated at the setting value. It prevents frequent alarm of the
data being surround by data
