The SMART Choice of Control & Automation II

1 The SMARTC hoice ofControl & Automation always on top of the situationIIWe proudly present the SMARTS olutionSMART Chief II is the newestgeneration of Integrated AutomationSystems covering all functions ofAlarm & Monitoring Systems (AMS)to total seamless integration as anIntegrated Alarm, Control andMonitoring System (IACMS) moreoften called an Integrated AutomationSystem (IAS).STI-modulesGraphicsThe system core is based on our wellproven and reliable STI-technologycombined with the latest in marinecomputers and software applicationtechnology. The STI-technology consistsof standardized building blocks, STI-modules, giving a series of advantages.

2 Decentralized or centralised system Fieldbus-solutions Ethernet solutions Fibre optic solutionsThe STI-modules are constructed fromadvanced electronics, each withindividual software giving an intelligent I/O unit specially design formarine and offshore demands. All modules are intelligent The modules are identified withunique use of node and moduleaddress All channels have galvanic isolation Indication of signal, voltage andcommunication statusA virtual networkThe main core of the system is a Spiderdistributed real time database, collecting,maintaining and computing all values inthe system. Every computer in the networkcontains a Spider that is continuouslysynchronized with all other Spiders via aredundant Ethernet (IEEE 802).

3 Due to thisno data will be lost as long as there is atleast one Spider up and running. On theoperator stations a Citect graphical userinterface is provided. Each Citect coexistswith the local Spider in a seamlessintegration utilising a combination ofActiveX and OPC for exchange ofinformation and operator commands. Redundant bus solution down to modulelevel Automatic registration of new modules Full quarto redundancy Time sampling of any change on nodelevel All logging, trending and alarmmanagement are distributed Seamless integrationTaking the market needs seriouslyspecial features are built into the STI-modules giving the user a greaterflexibility in operation and maintenance.

4 Electronic fusing of 24V and 5 Vsupply to every single module The internal power supply is galvanicisolated from 24V Redundant power supplyAll system data are communicated to thesystems workstations and local operatorpanels which are designed for optimaloperation and functionality. Customdesign of user-friendly graphics tomonitor, alarm or Control the variousship equipment, is a key element in ourdesign. All functions are easy at handsuch as AMS functions, Pump Control ,Valve Control , Tank Sounding, PMScontrol, CCTV, Fire alarm and otherseamless integration NetworkThe EASYWa y of Management easy to install easy to understand easy to operate easy to maintainSMART Chief II providesbenefits for all parts combined easiness, dura-bility and service functions,insures a safe investment giv-ing all parts increased system displays a fullsystem functionality overview.

5 Giving all parts an easyoverlook and secure Chief IIis approvedby the major care of values involvestaking all parties inconsideration under designand construction. The systemsshall be easy to understandand design from a consultant spoint of view. Logicalstructure and easy connectionsis important for the , reliability and easyoperation together with lowcost maintenance are moreimportant for the operator andowner. Same technology despiteany system solution Easy module identification Modular construction High degree of flexibility Reduce need of space Easy connection Effective installation Reliable operations Easy and functional Man-Machine operation Easy to operate and maintain All retrofit or repairs can bedone while the system isrunning ( Hot systemchanges)

An IAS task is to integrate these functions in aseamless manner despite system fabricate and Chief II is prepared to make these integrations in the extentof the owners wishes. SMART Chief II gives you full operation, viewonly or a combined function, with more than 70 differentcommunication BoardsReliable Main and EmergencySwitchboards for all vessel Chief IIThe ship nervous system.

8 SMART -features like hot buttons betweenpages and direct adjustment on eachsymbol, makes operation smooth andtailor- identificationThe STI I/O-modules has an inbuiltAuto-identification so that servicepersonnel are able to add new I/Omodules (On/Off, 4-20mA, +/-10V,RTD, ThermoCouple-modules) into thefree I/O slots in any cabinet connectedto the SMART Chief II system. Thesystem can then be configured andactivate the new I/O-alarm tags for thenew modules. All these operations canbe done runtime without switching offany power supplies or restarting anypart of the operation Panel(Alarm Panel) SMART Chief II EAS panel is alsodesigned to be used as a local operatorpanel.
