1. Location and Installation of the Protective Memory

Capsule (PMC)

1.1. Location of the Protective Memory Capsule (PMC)

The Protective Memory Capsule (PMC) should be sited in the vicinity of the
bridge on the external deck area of the vessel so as to maximize the probability
of its recovery following an incident. The PMC should be positioned clear of
rigging and other potential obstructions and as near to the ship’s centerline as
practically possible.

When assessing the optimum position of the PMC the following points should be
considered:

• Separation from fuel or other potential fire sources.

• Separation from probable sources of mechanical damage.

• The capsule should be installed at least 5 meter away from the magnetic
compass.

• Operational environment for continued serviceability and routine

maintenance

• Facilitation for underwater removal and retrieval by both divers and ROV’s
(Remotely Operated Vehicle). There should be a clear unobstructed space
in the vicinity of the capsule to allow an ROV or diver to work.

• Minimization of cable distance to the Main Unit. As well as, accessibility to the
plug.

1.2. Capsule installation

1. The connecting cable from the VDR Main Unit to the PMC contains both
Ethernet and Power Supply.

2. Place the capsule at the appropriate location. The capsule’s base should be
bolted with M12 x 40 mm [A4] (316) screws to a base, which is not part of
the scope of supply (see Diagram 1: Totem Plus PMC).

3. Cut the cable according the length needed. Keep 15 cm slack before
connector.

4. To avoid stress on to the connector, anchor the cable.

5. Connect the cable to the capsule. Note that while you are connecting the
cable the system should be off. The front handle should be at unlocking
position. Turn the connector’s ring clockwise up to the locking of the
connector. Turn the connector’s ring anti-clockwise to release.

2. Location and Installation of the Main Unit

2.1. Location of the Main Unit

To avoid unacceptable deviation of the ships standard and steering compasses

the VDR Main Unit should be installed not closer than the compass-safe
distance. The compass-safe distance for the standard compass is 285 cm. The
compass-safe distance for the steering compass is 165 cm.

For better maintenance, it is advisable to keep access to at least one wall of the
main cabinet. VDR shall be connected to the ship’s emergency source of the
main power. One-phase circuit breaker for Totem VDR should be at least 10A.

2.2. Main Unit Installation

1. Place the unit in the appropriate place. Bolt the bottom of the cabinet to a
base, which is not part of scope of supply. Use M12 x 40 mm screw (see
Diagram 2: Top & bottom panels).

2. Connect the top panel of the unit to the wall or to the ceiling. Use M12 x 40
mm screws) (see Diagram 2: Top & bottom panels).

3. Unbolt transportation bolts of computer, UPS, and monitor shelves.

4. The Main Unit’s side panels may be removed to allow for easier wiring.

5. All cable shields should be connected to the system’s ground bus (GND).

6. System ground bus should be connected with a wire not less than 2 mm2 to
the closest earth point (GND) of the ship.

positions at which a person is expected to be when performing one of the normal
bridge duties. The following workstations should be connected:

• Center line conning

• Bridge wings

• Main radar

• Chart table

• Helmsman

• VHF

When determining the microphones’ location the following should be taken into
account:

• The surface should be with minimum vibration possible.

• The coverage area of one microphone is a circle about 10 m in diameter.

• The space around the microphones should be clear of obstacles and

sources of constant noise such as ventilation outlets, loudspeakers,
transformers, and fans.

(Agenda item 9)

PERFORMANCE STANDARDS FOR SHIPBORNE VOYAGE DATA

RECORDERS (VDRs)
( 1995 SOLAS Conference Resolution 12 )

THE ASSEMBLY,

RECALLING Article 15(j) of the Convention on the International Maritime Organization

concerning the functions of the Assembly in relation to regulations and guidelines concerning
maritime safety,

RECALLING ALSO that, by resolution 12, the Conference of Contracting Governments to the
International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974, being of the opinion that it
would be desirable that ships, in particular passenger ships, be fitted with voyage data recorders
(VDRs) to assist in investigations into casualties, requested the Maritime Safety Committee to
develop, as a matter of urgency, operational requirements and performance standards for such
recorders, taking into account any potential human element implications,

NOTING that consideration is being given to the development of carriage requirements for
VDRs for inclusion in the SOLAS Convention at the earliest opportunity,

HAVING CONSIDERED the recommendations made by the Maritime Safety Committee at its
sixty-eighth session and by the Sub-Committee on Safety of Navigation at its forty-third session,

1. ADOPTS the Recommendation on Performance Standards for Shipborne Voyage Data

Recorders (VDRs), set out in the annex to the present resolution;

2. INVITES Governments to encourage shipowners and operators of ships entitled to fly their flag
to install VDRs on such ships, as soon as possible, especially considering that the carriage of VDRs
may soon be made mandatory under the SOLAS Convention;

3. RECOMMENDS Governments to ensure that VDRs installed on board ships flying their flag
conform to performance standards not inferior to those specified in the Annex to this resolution;

4. REQUESTS the Maritime Safety Committee to keep these Performance Standards under review
and to adopt amendments thereto, as necessary.
 ANNEX

RECOMMENDATION ON PERFORMANCE STANDARDS FOR SHIPBORNE

VOYAGE DATA RECORDERS (VDRs)

1 PURPOSE
The purpose of a voyage data recorder (VDR) is to maintain a store, in a secure and retrievable
form, of information concerning the position, movement, physical status, command and control of
a vessel over the period leading up to and following an incident having an impact thereon.
Information contained in a VDR should be made available to both the Administration and the
shipowner. This information is for use during any subsequent investigation to identify the cause(s)
of the incident.

2 APPLICATION
A VDR with capabilities not inferior to those defined in these performance standards is required to
be fitted to ships of classes defined in SOLAS chapter V, as amended.

4 DEFINITIONS

4.1 Voyage data recorder (VDR) means a complete system, including any items required to
interface with the sources of input data, for processing and encoding the data, the final recording
medium in its capsule, the power supply and dedicated reserve power source.

4.2 Sensor means any unit external to the VDR, to which the VDR is connected and from which
it obtains data to be recorded.

4.3 Final recording medium means the item of hardware on which the data is recorded such that
access to it would enable the data to be recovered and played back by use of suitable equipment.

4.4 Playback equipment means the equipment, compatible with the recording medium and the
format used during recording, employed for recovering the data. It includes also the display or
presentation hardware and software that is appropriate to the original data source equipment.*

* Playback equipment is not normally installed on a ship and is not regarded as part of a VDR for the purposes of these
performance standards.
4.5 Dedicated reserve power source means a secondary battery, with suitable automatic charging
arrangements, dedicated solely to the VDR, of sufficient capacity to operate it as required by 5.3.2.

5 OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS

5.1 General

5.1.1 The VDR should continuously maintain sequential records of preselected data items relating
to the status and output of the ship's equipment, and command and control of the ship, referred to
in 5.4.

5.1.2 To permit subsequent analysis of factors surrounding an incident, the method of recording
should ensure that the various data items can be co-related in date and time during playback on
suitable equipment.

5.1.3 The final recording medium should be installed in a protective capsule which should meet all
of the following requirements:
.1 be capable of being accessed following an incident but secure against tampering;
.2 maximize the probability of survival and recovery of the final recorded data after any
incident;
.3 be of a highly visible colour and marked with retro-reflective materials; and
.4 be fitted with an appropriate device to aid location.

5.1.4 The design and construction, which should be in accordance with the requirements of
resolution A.694(17) and international standards acceptable to the Organization*, should take
special account of the requirements for data security and continuity of operation as detailed in 5.2
and 5.3.

* Refer to publication IEC 945-Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - General
requirements, methods of testing and required test results.

5.2 Data selection and security

5.2.1 The minimum selections of data items to be recorded by the VDR are specified in 5.4.
Optionally, additional items may be recorded provided that the requirements for the recording and
storage of the specified selections are not compromised.

5.2.2 The equipment should be so designed that, as far as is practical, it is not possible to tamper
with the selection of data being input to the equipment, the data itself nor that which has already
been recorded. Any attempt to interfere with the integrity of the data or the recording should be
recorded.

5.2.3 The recording method should be such that each item of the recorded data is checked for
integrity and an alarm given if a non-correctable error is detected.

5.3 Continuity of operation

5.3.1 To ensure that the VDR continues to record events during an incident, it should be capable
of operating from the ship's emergency source of electrical power.

5.3.2 If the ship's emergency source of electrical power supply fails, the VDR should continue to
record Bridge Audio (see 5.4.5) from a dedicated reserve source of power for a period of 2 h. At
the end of this 2 h period all recording should cease automatically.

5.3.3 Recording should be continuous unless interrupted briefly in accordance with 6 or

terminated in accordance with 5.3.2. The time for which all stored data items are retained should be
at least 12 h. Data items which are older than this may be overwritten with new data.

5.4 Data items to be recorded

5.4.1 Date and time

Date and time, referenced to UTC, should be obtained from a source external to the ship or from an
internal clock. The recording should indicate which source is in use. The recording method should
be such that the timing of all other recorded data items can be derived on playback with a
resolution sufficient to reconstruct the history of the incident in detail.

5.4.2 Ship's position

Latitude and longitude, and the datum used, should be derived from an electronic position-fixing
system (EPFS). The recording should ensure that the identity and status of the EPFS can always be
determined on playback.

5.4.3 Speed
Speed through the water or speed over the ground, including an indication of which it is, derived
from the ship's speed and distance measuring equipment.

5.4.4 Heading
As indicated by the ship's compass.

5.4.5 Bridge Audio

One or more microphones positioned on the bridge should be placed so that conversation at or near
the conning stations, radar displays, chart tables, etc., are adequately recorded. As far as
practicable, the positioning of microphones should also capture intercom, public address systems
and audible alarms on the bridge.

5.4.6 Communications audio

VHF communications relating to ship operations should be recorded.

5.4.7 Radar data, post-display selection

This should include electronic signal information from within one of the ship's radar installations
which records all the information which was actually being presented on the master display of that
radar at the time of recording. This should include any range rings or markers, bearing markers,
electronic plotting symbols, radar maps, whatever parts of the SENC or other electronic chart or
map that were selected, the voyage plan, navigational data, navigational alarms and the radar status
data that were visible on the display. The recording method should be such that, on playback, it is
possible to present a faithful replica of the entire radar display that was on view at the time of
recording, albeit within the limitations of any bandwidth compression techniques that are essential
to the working of the VDR.

5.4.8 Echo sounder

This should include depth under keel, the depth scale currently being displayed and other status
information where available.
5.4.9 Main alarms
This should include the status of all mandatory alarms on the bridge.

5.4.10 Rudder order and response

This should include status and settings of auto-pilot if fitted.

5.4.11 Engine order and response

This should include the positions of any engine telegraphs or direct engine/propeller controls and
feedback indications, if fitted, including ahead/astern indicators. This should also include status of
bow thrusters if fitted.

5.4.12 Hull openings status

This should include all mandatory status information required to be displayed on the bridge.

5.4.13 Watertight and fire door status

This should include all mandatory status information required to be displayed on the bridge.

5.4.14 Accelerations and hull stresses

Where a ship is fitted with hull stress and response monitoring equipment, all the data items that
have been pre-selected within that equipment should be recorded.

5.4.15 Wind speed and direction

This should be applicable where a ship is fitted with a suitable sensor. Either relative or true wind
speed and direction may be recorded, but an indication of which it is should be recorded.

6 OPERATION
The unit should be entirely automatic in normal operation. Means should be provided whereby
recorded data may be saved by an appropriate method following an incident, with minimal
interruption to the recording process.

7 INTERFACING
Interfacing to the various sensors required should be in accordance with the relevant international
interface standard, where possible. Any connection to any item of the ship's equipment should be
such that the operation of that equipment suffers no deterioration, even if the VDR system develops
faults.

ANNEX

RECOMMENDATION ON PERFORMANCE STANDARDS FOR

SHIPBORNE SIMPLIFIED VOYAGE DATA RECORDERS (S-VDRs)

1 PURPOSE

1.1 The purpose of a simplified voyage data recorder (S-VDR) is to maintain a store, in a
secure and retrievable form, of information concerning the position, movement, physical status,
command and control of a vessel over the period leading up to and following an incident having
an impact thereon. Information contained in a S-VDR should be made available to both the
Administration and the shipowner. This information is for use during any subsequent
investigation to identify the cause(s) of the incident.

2 APPLICATION

2.1 A S-VDR with capabilities not inferior to those defined in these performance standards is
required to be fitted to ships of classes defined in SOLAS chapter V, as amended.

4 DEFINITIONS

4.1 Simplified Voyage data recorder (S-VDR) means a complete system, including any items
required to interface with the sources of input data, for processing and encoding the data, the
final recording medium, the power supply and dedicated reserve power source.

4.2 Sensor means any unit external to the S-VDR, to which the S-VDR is connected and from
which it obtains data to be recorded.

4.3 Final recording medium means the item of hardware on which the data is recorded such
that access to it would enable the data to be recovered and played back by use of suitable
equipment.

4.4 Playback equipment means the equipment, compatible with the recording medium and the
format used during recording, employed for recovering the data. It includes also the display or
presentation hardware and software that is appropriate to the original data source equipment.1

4.5 Dedicated reserve power source means a secondary battery, with suitable automatic
charging arrangements, dedicated solely to the S-VDR, of sufficient capacity to operate it as
required by 5.3.2.

5 OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS

5.1 General

5.1.1 The S-VDR should continuously maintain sequential records of preselected data items
relating to the status and output of the ship's equipment, and command and control of the ship,
referred to in 5.4.

5.1.2 To permit subsequent analysis of factors surrounding an incident, the method of recording
should ensure that the various data items can be co-related in date and time during playback on
suitable equipment.

5.1.3 Final recording medium

5.1.3.1 The final recording medium should be installed in a protective capsule of either a fixed or
float-free type, which should meet all of the following requirements:

.1 be capable of being accessed following an incident but secure against tampering;

1
Playback equipment is not normally installed on a ship and is not regarded as part of a S-VDR for the purposes
of these performance standards.

I:\MSC\78\26-Add.2.doc

ANNEX 26
Page 4

.2 maintain the recorded data for a period of at least 2 years following termination of
recording;

.3 be of a highly visible colour and marked with retro-reflective materials; and

.4 be fitted with an appropriate device to aid location.

5.1.3.2 The fixed type protective capsule should comply with the requirements set out in
resolution A.861(20) with the exception of the resulting requirements for withstanding
penetration.

5.1.3.3 The float-free type protective capsule should:

.1 be fitted with means to facilitate grappling and recovery;

.2 be so constructed as to comply with the requirements specified in

resolutions A.810(19) or A.812(19) and to minimize risk of damage during
recovery operations; and

.3 the device should be capable of transmitting an initial locating signal and further
locating homing signal for at least 48 hours over a period of not less than
7 days/168 hours.

5.1.4 The design and construction, which should be in accordance with the requirements of
resolution A.694(17) and international standards acceptable to the Organization2, should take
special account of the requirements for data security and continuity of operation as detailed in 5.2
and 5.3.

5.2 Data selection and security

5.2.1 The minimum selections of data items to be recorded by the S-VDR are specified in 5.4.
Optionally, additional items may be recorded provided that the requirements for the recording
and storage of the specified selections are not compromised.

5.2.2 The equipment should be so designed that, as far as is practical, it is not possible to
tamper with the selection of data being input to the equipment, the data itself nor that which has
already been recorded. Any attempt to interfere with the integrity of the data or the recording
should be recorded.

5.2.3 The recording method should be such that each item of the recorded data is checked for
integrity and an alarm given if a non-correctable error is detected.

5.3 Continuity of operation

5.3.1 To ensure that the S-VDR continues to record events during an incident, it should be
capable of operating from the ship's emergency source of electrical power.

 MSC 78/26/Add.2
ANNEX 26
Page 5

5.3.2 If the ship's emergency source of electrical power supply fails, the S-VDR should
continue to record Bridge Audio (see 5.4.5) from a dedicated reserve source of power for a
period of 2 h. At the end of this 2 h period all recording should cease automatically.

5.3.3 Recording should be continuous unless interrupted briefly in accordance with 6 or

terminated in accordance with 5.3.2. The time for which all stored data items are retained should
be at least 12 h. Data items which are older than this may be overwritten with new data.

5.4 Data items to be recorded

Date and time

5.4.1 Date and time, referenced to UTC, should be obtained from a source external to the ship
or from an internal clock. The recording should indicate which source is in use. The recording
method should be such that the timing of all other recorded data items can be derived on
playback with a resolution sufficient to reconstruct the history of the incident in detail.

Ship's position

5.4.2 Latitude and longitude, and the datum used, should be derived from an electronic
position-fixing system (EPFS). The recording should ensure that the identity and status of the
EPFS can always be determined on playback.

Speed

5.4.3 Speed through the water or speed over the ground, including an indication of which it is,
derived from the ship's speed and distance measuring equipment.

Heading

5.4.4 As indicated by the ship's compass.

Bridge Audio

5.4.5 One or more microphones positioned on the bridge should be placed so that conversation
at or near the conning stations, radar displays, chart tables, etc., are adequately recorded. As far
as practicable, the positioning of microphones should also capture intercom, public address
systems and audible alarms on the bridge.

Communications Audio

5.4.6 VHF communications relating to ship operations should be recorded.

Radar data, post-display selection

5.4.7 This should include electronic signal information from within one of the ship's radar
installations which records all the information which was actually being presented on the master
display of that radar at the time of recording. This should include any range rings or markers,
bearing markers, electronic plotting symbols, radar maps, whatever parts of the SENC or other
electronic chart or map that were selected, the voyage plan, navigational data, navigational

I:\MSC\78\26-Add.2.doc
MSC 78/26/Add.2
ANNEX 26
Page 6

alarms and the radar status data that were visible on the display. The recording method should be
such that, on playback, it is possible to present a faithful replica of the entire radar display that
was on view at the time of recording, albeit within the limitations of any bandwidth compression
techniques that are essential to the working of the S-VDR.

AIS Data

5.4.8 If it is impossible to obtain radar data3 then AIS target data should be recorded as a source
of information regarding other ships. If radar data is recorded, AIS information may be recorded
additionally as a beneficial secondary source of information on both other and own ship.

Other items

5.4.9 Any additional data items listed by IMO with the requirements set out in
resolution A.861(20) should be recorded when the data is available in accordance with the
international digital interface standards4 using approved sentence formatters.

6 OPERATION

6.1 The unit should be entirely automatic in normal operation. Means should be provided
whereby recorded data may be saved by an appropriate method following an incident, with
minimal interruption to the recording process.

7 INTERFACING

7.1 Interfacing to the various sensors required should be in accordance with the relevant
international interface standards, where possible. Any connection to any item of the ship's
equipment should be such that the operation of that equipment suffers no deterioration, even if
the S-VDR system develops faults.

3. General Notes
3.1 In order to prevent a loss of data the service engineer shall be present when the ship arrives in
the port at which the annual test is to be undertaken. If this is nearly impossible it will be
necessary shortly after arrival in the port to down load the last 12 hours of the data by a
competent person from the ships crew.
3.2 Items marked by * are not relevant for SVDR when the data is not provided in IEC 61162 format
3.3 Official Data is VDR data kept on the VDR computer and in the office File as a proof of proper
system function at the time of the test and for analysis of any change on input signals during the
period between tests. The location for the data on the VDR computer is BACKUP directory. It
always should be at least two sets of data (current and previous test) except on initial test during
commissioning. The data kept as an Official Data should be recorded when all or most of the
sensors connected to the VDR are active. Missing sensors activity could be added by separate
records. After completion of the test a Copy of the Official data should be sent to the
Manufacturer.
3.4 Any discrepancy from the status indicated in Result Required (even not related to the VDR
malfunction) should be fixed and retested. If correction is not possible no Certificate of
Compliance can be issued. The discrepancy should be referenced in Result column of Annual
Checklist (Form T44) and reported to the Class (Local office) and to the Owner in a Service
Report (Form T8) with corrective actions to be taken. In some cases where number and severity
of discrepancies are not significant and their can be fixed within predictable term a Conditional
short-term Certificate of Compliance (COC) can be issued with copies sent to Class and to
Owner. The term depends on corrective actions to be taken but should not exceed two months.
