2 System overview
VDR System overview (typical configuration)
2.1.1 Data Acquisition Unit (DAU)
The Data Acquisition Unit contains the Data Processor Unit (DPU). The DAU must be installed
indoors in the proximity of the bridge.
2.1.2 VDR Bridge Control Panel (BCP)
The BCP must be installed on the bridge either in a console or mounted on a bulkhead. The BCP is
the interface for the VDR Operational Performance Test which must be carried out regularly. VDR
system errors will also be shown here as a caution (steady yellow light).
2.1.3 Bridge Microphone Units (BMU)
A number of BMUs must be installed on the bridge (console, ceiling or bulkhead mounted).
Watertight outdoor BMUs for the bridge wings are available.
