1 Functional Overview
1.1 System Function
The VINGTOR VSS-V2 Sound Reception System is a navigational aid
system required on ships with enclosed bridges. The system enables
the ocer in charge of the navigational watch to hear sound signals and
determine their direction.
The system conforms to SOLAS regulation HSC Code, ISO 14859 and
DNV 845.50 (6/2012) type approval programme.
One weatherproof microphone unit with four directional microphones is
mounted on top of the wheelhouse and connected to the VSS bridge
panel.
By use of the microphone unit, the VSS-V2 system will detect the
direction of the incoming horn signal and activate the corresponding
LED at the VSS-V2 front panel. Depending on the signal measured
at two adjacent microphones, additional directions between those
microphones can be measured.
1.2 System Characteristics
• Easy to operate
• Input for remote muting of the amplier circuit when the vessel’s
own horn is activated
• Noise cancelling with DSP ltering
• Manual dimmer control
• Sector indication by use of 8 LEDs
• Input for four directional microphones
• The microphone unit is weatherproof and for bulkhead mounting
outside, on top of the wheelhouse
• Web interface with two dierent login types. One for reading
the system status and one for access to settings and system
parameters
• Output for voyage data recorder
• Override function to hear the unltered sound from the microphone
unit
• Able to connect 4 slave panels
1.3 Reading Distance
According to requirements in IEC 62288, are both master panel and
slave panel readable from a distance of 1 meter.
