KongsbergSystem Philosophy
Cruise Vessel Management System
The Kongsbergsystem philosophy is to provide sophisticated, robust and reliable
subsystems and assemblages of them in networks that fuse leading edge and proventechnologies. Consequently, research and development are continual, and productreliability, maintainability and supportability are unremitting quests. The synergy ofapproaches results in designs and implementations that are at once proven and atthe vanguard of maritime technology.
Robust solutions
Kongsbergsystem philosophy relies on a distributed and open system design thatemploys a system-wide standardized communication network. The network facili-tates free flow of information from all sub-systems, with vessel-wide information
available on multi-functional workstations. A common base technology and userinterface for all products ensures a safe, efficient, reliable operational environment.
Integration of bridge and machinery controls Multipurpose work stations Robust, fault tolerant solutions Unsurpassed manoeuvre capabilities Safety in operation Reduced operational costs
Designed for operation
Decades of real-life operational experience and
knowledge lie behind our designs and thereby
ensure user-friendly functions that ease and
speed operations.

Cutting costs
The K-Chief control system for machinery and
HVAC provides optimum operation of machinery
and thus reduces fuel consumption. The monitor-
ing and trending function provides operators with
a powerful tool for analysis of power consumption
and energy optimization of propulsion and HVAC
plant. The unique GreenDP function signicantlyreduces fuel consumption and thrusters wear in
electronic anchoring mode.
The full picture
Free ow of information
Fast and reliable data exchange is guaranteed
by the high speed data communication network
- the dual star conguration principle which
is considered as the industry standard for reliable
data communication.
Each autonomous subsystem utilises it's own
dedicated dual network segment. Master switches
are used to interconnect the subsystems allowingdata exchange between the systems, at the same
time providing a safety barrier preventing failures
in one system to spread to another system.
Reliability in operation
In concert, Kongsbergnavigation, manoeuvring and automation subsystems
enhance and ease the operation and navigation of cruise vessels. The ultimateis attained when the subsystems work together in an integrated control systemthat includes a fully backed-up, system-wide communication network. All major system components such as the communication networks, processcontrollers, work stations and power supplies are duplicated to ensure maximumuptime. Essential components such as network switches and process controllersmay even be located in different fire zones.
Multifunctional Operator Stations
Even though operator stations normally have
dedicated functions, such as ARPA, ECDIS,
dynamic positioning, automation or safety, cross-
over information and views are available for the
operators. This reduces the need for dedicated
operator stations in all locations, and enhances
system exibility. Alarms from any part of thesystem are available on all operator stations, using
predened lters to reduce the information on
screen.

efcient resource allocation in emer-
gency situations, crowd manage-
ment, and emergency shut down.
On track
The new IMO standard for integrated
bridge systems has clear demands
for consistent information across
all systems on the bridge. K-Bridge
meets these standards by allowing
own-ship data, e.g. system internal
heading, speed, position and drift
to be calculated and distributed to
all sub-systems, in order to avoid
inconsistent presentation.
Unsurpassed manoeuvre capabilities
K-POS joystick and dynamic posi-
tioning is designed to suit the opera-
tional requirements of cruise liners.
Keeping the vessel within specied
position and heading limits, provides
unmatched station keeping or chain-
less anchoring. K-Thrust propulsion
and thruster control system, enable
safe manoeuvre in conned waters.

Integrated navigation
The next level in ship handling
The feel aboard a Kongsbergdesigned bridge is that of a cockpit, where the officers
are comfortably seated with information and controls at their fingertips. Designedfor easy operation, our bridge designs allow maximum time for observation anddecision making and thereby increase the situational awareness.
8/13/2019 KM-Cruise

Integrated navigation and traffic surveillance
Consistent information and intuitive presentation is crucial. The K-Bridge integrated
navigation system utilizes a dual redundant controller and interface unit tocollect data from all sensors such as gyros, position sensors, speed logs and weathersensors. The data is processed and alarms are given if inconsistency occurs.The processed own ship data (e.g. filtered heading, speed and position) is distrib-uted to multifunctional operator stations. Thus, a true distributed system approach,which provides for compliance with IMO guidelines for safe return to port.
Multifunctionality
The multifunctional operator stations can be dedicated to one function, or theycan be configured as multifunctional radar/ARPA, ECDIS and conning stations.The radar/ARPA has extensive chart functions, and the ECDIS can display radarvideo. On multi functional operator stations, even radar video gain and anti-cluttercan be adjusted in ECDIS mode. When integrated in the Cruise Vessel ManagementSystem, multiple views and process information is available from other sub-systems.
Docking assist
A customized docking display is available; integrating chart view with a distance toquay calculator, own ship data presentation, engine, rudder and thrusters feedback,with CCTV information on top.

In command Integrated manoeuvering
The unique integrated manoeuvring concept, rendered by the common technology
in the K-Thrust propulsion, rudder and thrusters control system, the K-Bridge navi-gation system and the K-Pos dynamic positioning system, ensures efficient shiphandling and operator supervision in all manoeuvring phases.
Operational modes range from hands on individual lever commands, via synchro-nous use of thrusters and propulsion by joystick, to automatic track- and speedpilot, to fully automatic station keeping.
Joystick mode
The operator controls the vessel using the -axis joystick, or alternatively a polarjoystick with separate heading knob. The operation can be combined with automaticheading control or with partial position control to e.g. ease docking. Automaticwind compensation is incorporated in order to increase operational focus on shiphandling.

Maintaining comfort of passengers while keeping an eyeon costs
The K-Chief air condition control system is designed to provide clean air to passen-gers and crew within comfortable temperature and humidity limits. Even more thedesign of the HVAC control system reduces cost of installation and operation.
Energy saving
In order to maintain room temperatures and keep CO level at acceptable levels theK-Chief HVAC control system utilises complex control algorithms, while at the sametime minimizing energy consumption by optimising air flow through the rooms (VAVcontrol). Further energy saving is obtained by using time programs for lowering tem-perature in public spaces only when the area is in use.
Ease of installation and maintenance
Local controllers and process interfaces are installed in the AC rooms and in theserved areas, thereby reducing cost of cabling. By extensive use of field busescabling is reduced while enabling individual control of each fire damper.
Ease of maintenance is achieved by portable operator stations that can be hookedup in AC rooms and used for local operation and troubleshooting. The same units areused during system erection.

In control of HVAC
From the dedicated HVAC operator
station(s) in engine control room the
AC engineer gains complete overview
of the plant status as well as all de-
tails on AC units, room temperatures
and chilled water compressors. Dur-
ing night time the watch responsibil-
ity is transferred to the multifunc-tional machinery operator stations
where the engineer on duty monitors
malfunction of the HVAC plant.
Modular, scalable and powerful
Kongsbergsystem philosophy relies on a dis-
tributed and open system design that employsa system-wide standardized communication
network. The hart of the system is our family of
remote processing units (RCU) powerful real
time processing units.
The processing unit handles the fastest control
and processing applications, while the distributed
remote I/O modules (RIO) provide signal connec
tion between the eld devices and the automa-
tion system.
Systems may easily be extended by addinghardware units. Similar, control applications is
built by software algorithms, function blocks that
represents single eld elements, e.g. instruments,
motors and valves. Hence, to add new sensors,
simply pick a new function block from the embed-
ded conguration system, make the connection
to an I/O module and you are all set .

Safety system
Situation awareness in crisis
Safety of passengers, crew and vessel is the crucial task for the master and the safety
teams. The K-Safe safety management system assists the officers during an emer-gency by presenting the essential safety information on screens in safety centre,navigation bridge and engine control room. The information may also be made avail-able in shore control rooms for expert help and follow up.
Computerized safety desk approach
Safety information related to fire and water integrity are overlaid on the vesselGA/safety plan and presented in a clear and structured way. Such information isfire alarms, fire doors and dampers, fire extinguishing systems and ventilation status.Status of water tight doors, shell doors, flooding sensors, void space monitoring
and stability condition provides information in the event of hull damage. Staticinformation from the safety plan such as life saving apparatus, emergency escaperoutes, high voltage equipment and cables may be displayed on request. The Electronic Plotting Aid follows the deployment of fire and rescue teams andother safety personnel. The tool may also be used to indicate compartments withdangerous equipment, cabins with special need passengers etc.
In order to perform realistic safety drills a simulator tool is included. Variousrealistic scenarios are included and may be further developed by the crew. Duringtraining all embedded tools in the Safety Management System is utilised.

Taking the right decission
The sophisticated Cause&Effect program tool is
used to implement safety logic. The C&E tool is
also used for online testing and documentation
purposes.
Decision support
In the event of an emergency the safety team will be guided by interactive emer-
gency procedures that will be displayed automatically on the K-Safe operator sta-tion. Relevant alarms and process status is displayed and the officer may initiatesafety actions directly from the procedure. All safety related alarms and events arelogged in the common history database and will also be listed in the incident report.
Emergency shutdown
The K-Safe ESD system is type approved by TV for use in safety critical applica-tions in accordance with the IEC0 standard. Shutdown of ventilation, fire doorsand machinery may be initiated from K-Safe operator stations from dedicated ESDdisplays or from the interactive emergency procedures. For extended reliability highlevel ESD hard panels are located in safety centres.
Crowd management
With several thousand passengers and crew onboard it is mandatory to have efficientand reliable systems to manage the location of people during a mustering or evacu-ation situation. The K-Safe crowd management system keeps track of all passengersand crew by utilising wireless ID-card scanners at mustering stations. The passengerdatabase is updated with mustering status allowing the officers to track non-reportedpassengers.
