Main panel AHT01-E
The AFMS can be operated from the main panel (AHT) and also from an additionally connected main
panel (HT). There must always be at least one main panel (AHT as principal) in an AFMS! In addition
to the main panel (AHT as principal), additional panels (main panel [HT] and main panels [AHT]) can
be used in parallel. The operating possibilities are considerably reduced on all parallel-operated main
panels, whether HT or AHT.
The operation of the main panel (AHT) is based on the operation of the main panel (HT) and is similar
to it. Nonetheless, the main panel (AHT) offers more comfortable operation and operator guidance
thanks to its larger display and an additional internal memory.
The main panel (AHT) is normally installed in a bridge control console on the command bridge near to
the other modules.
The main panel (AHT) consists of a large graphic display, 19 keys, 7 illuminated display fields (3-
coloured red-yellow-green) and an acoustic sounder. In order to be able to adapt the illuminated
display fields optimally to the local conditions, the light intensity can be adjusted. The contrast and the
brightness of the background lighting can also be adjusted (day/night operation).
1.12.
Main panel HT01-E
The AFMS can be operated through the main panel (AHT) and the main panel (HT). There must
always be at least one main panel (AHT) in an AFMS (as master).
The main panel (HT) in parallel operation is normally installed in the MCR (machine control room) or
another safety station. On river ships, installation is also possible in the reception or on the bridge, as
well as other installations in firefighting locations.
The main panel (HT) consists of a display (2 rows each with 20 characters), 10 keys with the
associated multi-coloured illuminated fields, 2 further LEDs (with illuminated display fields) and an
acoustic sounder. All illuminated display fields, the display and the LEDs can also be adjusted for
brightness (as above), which also applies for the contrast of the LCD display.
A maximum of 2 main panels (HT) can be connected to an AFMS in addition to one main panel (AHT).
The connected main panels (HT) always run only parallel to an AFMS and this restricts their function.
The operation of a main panel (HT) is in the operating instructions of the MED-approved FMS3000,
which in this case is included in the delivery.
1.13.
Data module DT01-E
The data module is intended for saving the configuration data of the AFMS and data created during its
operation on a special SD card. For this purpose, the module has its own microcontroller for reading
and writing onto the SD card. Operation is thus ensured independently of superior systems. The
module is connected through its own interface.
On the back of the module is a small slot for such card. It locks into position after insertion it into the
card holder. In order to remove the SD card, it must be first ‘pressed’ a little – the card unlatches,
comes out slightly and can then be removed easily.
