1 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
The configuration of the SDP-21 system installed on Siem
Mariner (BN314 KLV) is shown in the Cable Layout Drawing
for the vessel. A copy of this drawing can be found in the Cable
Information part of the Drawing File.

2 SOFTWARE STATUS
The software installed on Siem Mariner (BN314 KLV) is based
on SDP Basis Software Release 6.1, Update 2.

3 THE OPERATOR PANEL

Please note that the operator panel used on this installation has
no heading wheel. Therefore, all references to the heading wheel
in the SDP (OS) Operator Reference Manual must be ignored.

4 REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS
Please ignore the Remote diagnostics chapter in the SDP (OS)
Operator Reference Manual, as it does not apply for this
installation.

5 OPERATING MODES
The following main operating modes are implemented:
Standby mode
Joystick mode
Auto Position mode
Auto Track (low speed) mode (separate manual)
Follow Target mode (separate manual)

6 QUICK MODEL UPDATE

7 THRUSTERS
7.1

Thruster control modes

The thruster control modes that are implemented for Siem
Mariner (BN314 KLV) have an effect in all operating modes and
are selected using the Thruster Allocation dialog box.
To display this dialog box, either click Allocation on the
Thruster menu, or press the Alloc Setup button in the
Controls button group.

Figure 1 Thruster Allocation dialog box

These modes are described in the Thrusters chapter of the SDP
(OS) Operator Reference Manual.
VARIABLE

These are the forbidden zones for the following azimuth

thrusters:
Thruster 4: -90 deg. +/-20 deg. if Thruster 5 is running.
Thruster 5: 90 deg. +/-20 deg. if Thruster 4 is running.

Note

The Thruster Biasing function is automatically activated when

selecting VARIABLE mode.

FIX PORT

When this mode is selected, Thruster 2 is automatically set to

-90.

FIX STBD

When this mode is selected, Thruster 2 is automatically set to

8 VESSEL REFERENCE CENTRE

The vessel reference centre is located:
43.3 m forward from APP
0.0 m starboard of centre line
7.6 m above keel
All position-reference systems interfaced to the SDP system use
the vessel reference centre as their vessel reference point.
Details regarding the reference centre offset values for the
position-reference systems can be found in the Reference
System Properties dialog box under the Sensors menu.
Please see the Position information chapter of the SDP (OS)
Operator Reference Manual for details.
Note

1037019/B

Position-reference offsets for HPR/HiPAP are 0.0 because

pitch/roll compensation is performed internally in the
HPR/HiPAP. The measurements sent by the HPR/HiPAP to the
SDP are related to the vessel reference centre.
