General Safety Information for the Operator

WARNING Never rely on the data displayed by the UDR alone to navigate a vessel
or in other safety-critical operations.

The UDR is a data repeater only. As soon as it receives valid datagrams

for the configured display mode, the UDR will display the data received.

The UDR does not check the incoming data for plausibility. Loss of data
will result in a visible error indication (dashes displayed), but will not
generate an audible alarm.

Always confirm the plausibility of the data displayed by the UDR against
the source which generates it. In safety-critical operations, regularly
chedk the data source against all available aids to navigation.

Chapter 1: Introduction

1.1 Design and Main Features

The Universal Digital Repeater, UDR, is a versatile data repeater display
for marine applications.

Upon installation, each UDR is configured to permanently display one

particular type of data, such as e.g. heading, speed, rate of turn etc.
The UDR may receive the data to display in a variety of serial data for-
mats used in the marine industry.

Once configured for the application at hand, the UDR indicates the type
of data as a text line on a 5x28 LED dot matrix display.
The actual value and the unit of measure of the data are shown as a line
of five alphanumeric characters, consisting of separate 5x7 dot matrix
LED display elements.

For a number of configurations, additional features are available, such

as, e.g. a “trend” indication (moving pattern to indicate rate of turn) and
output to the nav. data printer NAVIPRINT for heading repeaters.

For all types of data, a relay output may be configured which is actuated
when the displayed data exceeds or falls below a set threshold.
This feature is intended primarily to provide a speed-dependent rudder
limiting function, in conjunction with a set of additional limit switches
inside the rudder feedback unit.

Display

➀ Mode Display:
Indicates the type of data displayed by the UDR.
Depending on the particular configuration, arrow symbols may also
be shown to indicate a direction (e.g. port/stb. for the rate of turn or
forward/aft for speed data).
A UDR used as heading repeater may be so configured that moving
arrow symbols appear instead of the mode indication as soon as
the vessel turns faster than approx. 6°/min (“trend” display).

➁ Data Value Display:

Shows the actual value and unit of the displayed data.

Operating Keys

➂ DIM- key:
Increases the display brightness.
In the setup mode, DIM- scrolls through the list of available options
on the current setup menu level.

➃ DIM+ key:
Decreases the display brightness.
In the setup mode, DIM+ activates the currently displayed setup
option or enters a lower setup menu level.

DIM- and DIM+ pressed simultaneously:

Activates special function, if available with current display mode.
When both keys are held pressed for longer than 2 sec.:
Activates display quick-test (all display elements light up, then unit
returns to normal operation).
When both keys are held pressed for longer than 5 sec.:
Activates the setup mode (unit prompts for setup access code).

Display and Operating Keys 2-1

056351/A Universal Digital Repeater

2.2 External control devices

Depending on the installation, external devices may be present to acti-
vate certain functions of the UDR:

• 180° offset (UDR configured as heading repeater)

Using an external selector switch, a 180° offset may be applied to the
heading data, e.g. for operation in double-ended ferries
• Freeze mode (UDR configured as heading repeater)
Using an external selector switch, the displayed heading value may
be temporarily frozen. This function is used e.g. to capture the actual
heading value exactly at the moment when relative bearings are
taken with a pelorus.
During freeze mode, the heading display flashes to indicate that the
displayed value is frozen.
• Toggle knots-meter/s (UDR configured as speed repeater)
Using an external selector switch, the speed indication may be tog-
gled between knots and meter/s. This function is mainly used to
switch between the indication in knots during normal operation and
the indication in meter/s for docking operations.
• External dimming
External pushbuttons may be installed to adjust the display bright-
ness of one UDR or a group of UDRs.
If external pushbuttons are installed, the internal dimming keys
remain operational and may be used in parallel with the external
pushbuttons.

2.7 Optional Functions

The following functions may be available if the system is equipped with
the respective external controls and configured accordingly.

External Dimming

With external dim keys

Actuate the external DIM+/DIM- keys to simultaneously increase or

decrease the display brightness of all connected UDRs.

The UDR reacts to both internal and external dim key operations; the
brightness level of an individual UDR may be altered by actuating the
builtin dim keys after a global adjustment has been made through exter-
nal dim keys.

With serial data dim commands

If serial dimming is enabled, serial data dim commands will override the
local brightness setting. Each UDR may be individually configured to
apply an offset to the commanded brightness level, to achieve uniform
brightness for all serially dimmed devices at a given location.

Universal Digital Repeater 056351/A

Threshold-controlled limit status output

The UDR provides a status output (relay contacts), which may be config-
ured to be activated when the displayed value exceeds or falls below a
preset threshold or falls outside a preset range.

When the status output is active (relay

XXXXX X X XXX
X X X X

attracted), the indication “THRESH” is
X XXX XXX XXX XX XXX
X
X
X X X X

display mode indication.
XX X X X
X X XXXX X X X XX
X X X X X XX X
X X XX XX X X
X X X X X X X X
XXX X XXXXX X XX X X X XX X

The most common application for the limit status output is to enforce
speed-dependent rudder angle limiting in conjunction with additional
sets of limit switches inside the rudder angle feedback unit(s).
In this case, the status output will enable or disable an additional set of
limit switches inside the rudder angle feedback unit(s).
As soon as the actual speed exceeds a preset threshold, the status out-
put activates the additional limit switches, which in turn will prevent the
rudder from being deflected beyond a safe limit.

Heading printer operation with NAVIPRINT

When used as a heading repeater, the UDR, may be configured to pro-

duce a graphical record of the vessel’s heading over time in conjunction
with a nav. data printer NAVIPRINT.

The print parameters, such as the width of the heading graph and paper
speed are set via the UDR setup mode. Once configured, the print out-
put is activated permanently. To switch printing on or off during normal
operation, toggle between the on-line and off-line mode at the printer’s
operating panel.

3.1 Error Indication

Note Being a data repeater display only, the UDR does not generate audible
alarms. All error indications shown apply to the loss or validity of data
received for the configured display mode only.
The UDR cannot monitor the general function of the data source or the
plausibility of the data received.
Loss of data at the UDR therefore does not indicate a general failure or
malfunction of the data source.

Chapter 4: Scheduled Maintenance

4.1 Maintenance by Shipboard Personnel

The UDR is a solid-state electronic device and contains no consumable
parts. Therefore, no set maintenance schedule is required.

The front plate should be kept clean and a regular visual inspection of
cables and connectors should be carried out to detect any signs of dam-
age or deterioration.

CAUTION The front plate is made of polycarbonate.

Do not clean the front plate with organic solvents, acetone or any other
substance which could damage or discolor plastic.
Use only water and soap or a mild detergent to clean the front plate.

Chapter 5: Installation

5.1 Mechanical Installation

Console Mounting

To mount the UDR directly in a console panel (without console frame), a

panel cutout of is required as shown in drawing 4891-0112-03 (see
Appendix). The required fasteners for console mounting are provided
with the UDR.

A backward clearance of approx. 60 mm from the back of the housing is

required to protect the connector cable from being bent too strongly at
the cable gland.

Housing with Bracket

The UDR in housing with bracket is shown in drawing 4981-0112-04 (see

Appendix). The mounting bracket carries two holes of 9 mm dia. for fix-
ing the bracket to any plane surface, such as a console panel, wall or
ceiling. The required fasteners are to be provided by the shipyard or
installer.

Connector Cable

The UDR connector cable terminates into a 15-wire pigtail for connec-
tion to a terminal block.

A dedicated watertight connection box with 15-way terminal block is

available under Part No. 74837. The dimensions, mounting requirements
and technical data of the box are shown in drawing 4894-0112-03 (see
Appendix).

If no dedicated connection box is supplied with the UDR, the required

terminal block is to be provided by the shipyard or installer. The installer
must make sure that the end of the cable sheath is firmly secured to the
vessel structure with tie-wraps or other suitable means, so that the indi-
vidual wires are free from tension at the terminals. Unused wires, if not
connected to terminals, must be electrically isolated and fastened to the
end of the cable sheath.

Mechanical Installation 5-1

5.2 Electrical Installation

Wiring Up the UDR

CAUTION Accidental shorting of connection wires under power may permanently

damage the UDR.
When wiring up the device, make sure that the power supply to the UDR
is switched off and is safeguarded against accidental switching-on.

Wire up the system according to the connection diagrams and other rel-
evant documents provided.

If installation-specific connection diagrams have been provided for a

given system, these supersede any connection information contained in
standard connection diagrams.

If wiring up according to standard connection diagrams, make sure

beforehand that all data and signals to receive from or transmit to exter-
nal equipment are compatible with the UDR I/O specifications, according

Setup Mode – Parameters

MODE

Configures the serial data input mode, i.e. the active combination of pro-
tocol and data type.

NMEA

Configures the input to read data using the NMEA 0183 protocol.
Data must be transmitted at a baudrate of 4800 Bd (IEC 61126-1).

Settings: HDT/G
The input reads true heading (gyro heading) from the
$--HDT sentence. Any talker ID may be used except HC.

HDT/M
The input reads true heading (magnetic heading corrected
for deviation and variation), from the $HCHDT sentence.
HDT sentences with talker IDs other than HC are ignored.

HDT/A
The input reads gyro heading preferrably, but will switch
over to magnetic heading automatically according to the fol-
lowing scheme:
If the proprietary §PPLAN or §PPNSD sentences (navigation
status data) are also received, the UDR automatically
switches to the currently active heading reference
If the $PPLAN or $PPNSD sentences are not received,
$--HDT sentences with talker IDs other than HC are priori-
tized over $HCHDT .
Thus, if $--HDT sentences are received simultaneously from
a gyrocompass and a magnetic heading source, the UDR
will normally display the gyro heading. In case of failure of
the gyrocompass, the UDR will automatically fall back to the
magnetic heading.

HDM
The input reads magnetic heading from the $HCHDM sen-
tence.

HDG
The input reads magnetic sensor heading, variation and
deviation from the $--HDG sentence. The UDR displays the
resultant heading, i.e. the sum of the raw sensor value, vari-
ation and deviation.
If mag. variation and/or deviation are empty (null fields), the
respective value is assumed to be zero.

THS
The input reads true heading from the $--THS sentence.

ROT
The input reads rate of turn from the $--ROT sentence.

ground speed data is present, the UDR displays the speed
through the water.

VBW.LAW
The input reads the longitudinal speed from the $--VBW
sentence; speed through the water is automatically priori-
tized over ground speed.

ST.OUT

Activates or de-activates the limit thresholds for the status output and
sets the “LOW” and “HIGH” threshold values.

LOW relay If only the “LOW” threshold is active, the output

ON relay attracts when the displayed value falls
OFF
below the “LOW” threshold value.

value

HIGH relay If only the “HIGH” threshold is active, the out-

ON put relay attracts when the displayed value
OFF
exceeds the “HIGH” threshold value.

value

LOW HIGH relay If both the “LOW” and the “HIGH” thresholds
ON are active and “LOW” is set to a lower value
OFF
than “HIGH”, the output relay attracts when the
displayed value lies in-between the “LOW” and
value “HIGH” threshold values.

HIGH LOW relay If both the “LOW” and the “HIGH” thresholds
ON are active and “LOW” is set to a higher value
OFF
than “HIGH”, the output relay attracts when the
displayed value falls below the “HIGH” or
value exceeds the “LOW” threshold value.

If both the “LOW” and the “HIGH” thresholds are active both thresholds
are set to exactly the same value, the output relay is always attracted as
long as valid data is received for the configured display mode. When no
valid data is received, the relay is released.

LOW

depending on the selected unit of measure, are displayed
with two decimal places. Higher speeds/velocities are dis-
played with one decimal place.

GEO

Configures directional indications (arrow symbols) for the vessel’s

speed/velocity to match the orientation of the UDR (forward or aft).

Settings: FWD
The UDR faces in the forward direction). Directional infor-
mation is displayed as as received at the data input.

AFT
The UDR faces in the aft direction. The value of incoming
data is multiplied by -1 (sign is reversed).
If e.g. the vessel moves ahead and to starboard, the UDR
will now show arrow symbols pointing downward or to the
left in a longitudinal or transverse speed display mode
respectively.
As the sign is reversed for all incoming data, except heading
or depth, this setting must not be activated in other than
speed display modes.

DIM

Configures the parameters for external serial dimming of the UDR.

Serial dimming requires that the UDR receives dim commands at the
dedicated dimming data input or the display data input.
The UDR recognizes the NMEA $--DDC sentence (IEC 61162-1 Ed.3, cur-
rently in draft) and the proprietary $PPLAI sentence.

At the time of writing of this manual, serial dimming is not yet used in
practice and the implementation details are subject to change.
