Configuration on the Tugs
On the Barge, NaviPac mode must be defined like
this. Remember to Enable Multiplex Telemetry.
Multiplexing Telemetry on Barge - I of IV
Defining Mode
Multiplexing Telemetry on Barge - II of IV
Three different telemetry systems possible,
each related to a radio/frequency.
Definition of com-port where the radio is
interfaced and data is read from/routed to.
Vessel ID defined as 30 (Barge).
Remote navigation distributed to port 5010.
Tug Management distributed to port 10507
(always).
Asyncronous mode selected – otherwise
Polling master on the Barge and Polling
Slave on the Tugs.
In Polling mode the Barge acts as a master in the
communication. Tugs will only transmit within certain time-
slots. Tugs are divided into polling groups with different
polling frequencies.
Main polling frequency. A polling sequence starts with this
interval. In TMS scenario only tracking vessels are polled
with this interval. In normal scenarios all vessels are polled
with this frequency.
Polling frequency for assigned vessels.
Polling frequency for all other vessels.
Defines the time given the modems to switch mode (Rx/Tx).
List of tugs being polled. The list is defined as a comma
separated list of object numbers. Press the Get button to
read list from NaviPac setup.

All data must be output on the same
adress/port – ex 127.0.0.1 / 5000.

Situation
Multiplexing Telemetry on Tugs - I of III
Defining Mode
Definition of NaviPac mode on the Tugs.
Remember to Enable Multiplex Telemetry.
Multiplexing Telemetry on Tugs - II of III
Vessel Id: 31 (Tug 1).
If the Barge is set to Polling Master mode, all slaves must
be set to Polling Slave mode. They are only allowed to
output data to the multiplexer with a certain time interval.
Slot allocation for this is handled purely by the master.
The slave can be configured to send an end message
(acknowledge) when all buffered messages have been
sent. This allows the master to close the timeslot before
timeout and thereby to optimize the use of the bandwidth.
This can be an alternative to defining the ‘Maximum Reply
Characters’ on the polling master. The optimal solution
would be obtained by setting this value too high and let the
slave send acknowledgements.

Back to the
Situation
To send the position of the
Barge to the Tugs, the
following must be defined: Address of multiplexer:
127.0.0.1, Port 5000.
Interface Configuration on the Barge – I of X
Position Output I
To send the Barge position to the Tugs, the following output must be selected:
Interface Configuration on the Barge – II of X
Position Output II
• The IP Address should be 127.0.0.1 to send
the data to the Multiplexer.
• ID of the barge position must be set to 30.
• Choose format NaviPac.
Interface Configuration on the Barge – III of X
Receive Tug Position I
To receive the position
from the Tug, the input
here must be defined on
the Barge:
Unlimited ammount of Tugs.
Interface Configuration on the Barge – IV of X
Receive Tug Position II To receive the tug positions on the barge, the
following Dynamic positioning system must be
defined:
• The IP address: 127.0.0.1 is the address of the
Multiplexer.
• The TP number of Tug1 is 31.
• The TP number of Tug2 is consequently 32.
To send the
Anchor pattern to
the Tugs, a ’Data
to TUG boats’
output must be
defined on the
Barge:
NaviPac format
must be chosen.
Interface Configuration on the Barge – V of X
Output Anchor Pattern
To send Runlines to the Tugs, the
following output must be selected:
Interface Configuration on the Barge – VI of X
Send Runlines
Interface Configuration on the Barge – VII of X
Messages from the Tug I A Special input, ‘From Remote NaviPac –
control’, must be defined in order to
enable the Barge NaviPac to be capable
of using the in-coming tug commands.
As the data most often is overlaid the
general navigation data (from the Tug)
the driver must be specified to I/O mode
‘Off’.
Note the port number – has to be 10507.
When in online mode, click on the ’TUG id’ text-box and the window to the right will
open. Now insert the ID (0 - telling that this is the barge). NaviPac will remember this
setting. Remember never to close the window, as it acts as interface between the
NaviPac kernel (interpreter) and the TMS kernel (RigMon).

Messages from Tug to Barge
The operator on the tug may activate some anchor-related commands towards the barge.
These are being activated from the Helmsman’s Display of the Tug:
• PICKED UP - The anchor has been picked up from barge (state is tracking).
• DROPPED - The anchor has been dropped on the seabed (state is laid).
• FIX - Various events performed on the tug (will be shown on HD).
The commands are send on top of the existing ‘Data to external navigation system’ output,
so no additional setup is required on the tug boat.
The data output must be selected to NaviPac (+ Tug status) or Exp. NaviPac.
On the Tugs the file C:\Eiva\NaviPac\Setup\objects.txt will now look as shown below right
