2 General Description
2.1 System Description
The VDR is designed to meet the performance and technical requirements stated in
IEC 60945, IMO Resolution A.861(20), MSC.333(90), A.694(17), and
IEC 61996-1 Ed.2 for VDR and RUSSIAN MARITIME REGISTER OF SHIPPING -
RULES FOR TECHNICAL SUPERVISION DURING CONSTRUCTION OF
SHIPS AND MANUFACURE OF MATERIALS AND PRODUCTS FOR SHIPS,
Volume 2, Part IV, ND No. 2-020101-040-E.
The VDR is a distributed system that consists of several units connected to each other
through Ethernet. There are three main categories of units in a VDR system: signal
converter units, control units and storage units.
A typical VDR system consists of signal converter units, control unit, one remote
control unit placed on or in the vicinity of the bridge and the storage units.
5490066A14 7
Installation manual VDR / S-VDR
The VDR is autonomous system that continuously records and stores data on the
storage units. The recorded data contains information from:
• Video signals – radar and ECDIS
• Audio signals - microphones and VHF radios
• Navigation data from bridge instruments
• Ship control data from engine and rudder
• Analogue signals - controls, meters and gauges
• On/Off signals - indication, alarm/warning lamps
The data is stored for a minimum of 48 /720 hours on the storage units according to
regulations and is then replaced by new data.
The optional Portable Black Box (PBB) stores all collected data from the VDR and
has about 2-3 months of storage capacity.

9.6.4.1 Introduction
The MFD is responsible for transmitting images with 15 sec interval if in “active” state. If the
state is “standby” then an image must be sent with a minimum interval of 10 minutes. A
MFD showing Ecdis must also send a ECDIS Chart data message when chart information is
changed or at least with a 10 minute interval.
The VDR is responsible for recording images and ECDIS Chart data messages. The VDR
monitors the recording and initiates an alert message if images are missing.

Installation Manual DDU
6 Setting up procedure
The DDU is delivered pre-configured to read the mounted input modules and storing
the result in the Modbus array. The VDR shall be set-up using the VDR configuration
software to read the corresponding inputs. If more than one DDU is connected to the
VDR the additional units needs to be assigned a unique IP address.
The default IP address is 10.2.1.180 and the additional units can be assigned addresses
in the range 10.2.1.181 to 10.2.1.189.
Set IP address
Use IPAssign from PHOENIX CONTACT which can be downloaded together with
a user instruction from http://www.phoenixcontact.com

DDU Installation Manual
Use the Mode selector switch (MRESET – STOP – RUN/PROG) on the Inline
controller ILC151 ETH to activate the automatic detection of the configuration.
Set the switch in the following sequences:
• Set and hold the switch to MRESET position for three seconds.
• Release the switch for less than three seconds.
• Set and hold the switch to MRESET position for three seconds.
• Set the switch to the RUN/PROG position
Switch the DDU AC-supply voltage off and on.
It will take approximately 30 seconds for the DDU/Inline controller ILC 151 ETH to
boot-up and read in the new configuration. After the boot-up no status indicators
should be flashing. Make sure that status indicator Q1 is ON indicating that there are
no errors and the Modbus server is operational and waiting for an incoming
connection.
The service laptop running Microsoft windows shall have a fixed IP address in the
10.2.1.xxx sub-range. (VDR service laptops are set to 10.2.1.222.)
The application needed, (6410946Xxx,Modbus_Python_test_script.exe), can be
obtained on request.
Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Inline controller ILC151 ETH (connected to
the VDR MU) and instead connect a separate Ethernet cable to the service laptop.

7.4 Troubleshooting
If the VDR cannot connect to the DDU you should perform a check of status indicator
LEDs.
All status LEDs on the Inline modules as well as the LED on the PSU are OFF:
- Check external fuses on incoming power.
- Check fuses 3 and 4 inside the lever-type fuse terminals L & N.
- On input filter NEFI1-1 measure voltage across 1 & 2 on input side and
across 3 & 4 on output side, should be 110 or 230V AC.
- On the PSU (QUINT POWER) measure voltage across L & N, should be
110 or 230V AC, and on + & - , should be +24V DC.
- If all voltages are present, except for +24V DC and PSU green LED DC
OK is OFF, then replace the PSU.
All status LEDs on the Inline modules are OFF but the LED on the PSU is ON:
- Check Fuse 1 inside the lever-type fuse terminal + feeding +24V DC to the
internal logic (UL) of the Inline modules.
