2 Overview
2.1 Introduction to Marine Watch
The Marine Watch S Series is a sophisticated and powerful alarm system, designed to be
easy to set up and use.
The S-ONE Alarm Panel touch screen displays binary events as rectangles, where each
rectangle represents the status of a channel. Analog channels are represented with gauges.
In the event of a warning or an alarm, the corresponding rectangle indicates clearly with a
flashing behavior, and the buzzer sounds. An operator can acknowledge the event by
touching the rectangle.
Additional S-ONE Alarm Panels can be added in the network, and these are designated
Subpanels. Finally, several S-ACE Annunciator Panels can be added in the network.
All I/O interfaces are built into a separate I/O Cabinet. The communication between the
Alarm Panel and the I/O Cabinet is on standard Ethernet.
2.2 Typical Installation
The typical Marine Watch installation consists of one or several I/O Cabinets, one or several
S-ONE Alarm Panels, and a few S-ACE Annunciator Panels. All units are connected on a
standard Ethernet network.
