Connecting a catch monitoring system to a serial or LAN
(Ethernet) port
A catch monitoring system can be connected to the ES80. The connection is made using a
serial or LAN (Ethernet) port on the Processor Unit. For any sensor interface to work, the
communication parameters must be set up correctly.
Prerequisites
This procedure assumes that:
• You have a vacant interface port on your Processor Unit.
• You are familiar with NMEA and other relevant datagram formats.
• You know how to set up the parameters for serial and local area network (LAN)
communication.
• The interface port is set up with the correct communication parameters.
• The ES80 system is turned on and operates normally.
• The new sensor is physically connected to the ES80 using a serial or network cable. The
sensor is turned on and in normal operation.
Neither tools nor instruments are required.
Context
The
Sensor Installation
page allows your ES80 to communicate with external sensors and
systems. You must specify which communication port to use (LAN (Local Area Network)
or serial port). You can type a custom name to identify the sensor import. In the list of
valid datagram formats, select the format(s) to be accepted by the ES80. For each relevant
sensor you must insert the offset values that define the its physical location relative to the
vessel’s coordinate system.
Note
Just making changes and selecting
OK
at the bottom of the page will not install anything.
Select what to install, define the relevant parameters, and then select
Add
.
Procedure
1 Connect the peripheral catch monitoring system to an available communication port
on your Processor Unit.
This is described in the Cable layout and interconnections chapter. Observe the
applicable requirements related to cabling. Make sure that the total length of the serial
line cable does not exceed approximately 50 meters. If a longer cable is required,
you may need to use buffer amplifiers.
