Description 2. Description The Autronica BSL-336 voyage-data-recorder interface allows AutroSafe series fire-detection panels to be connected to voyage data recorders (VDR), so that information from the fire-detection system is recorded. The VDR interface is in compliance with: • IEC 61162-1 and IEC-61162-2 First edition 1998-09 Maritime Navigation and Radio-Communication Equipment and Systems.
Not in use DIP-switches for port 1 (to AutroSafe) (S1.4 ON) DIP-switches for port 0 (to VDR) (S2.1 – S2.2 – S2.5 ON) Interfacing Voyage Data Recorder Systems, AutroSafe Interactive Fire-Alarm System, 116-P-BSL336/EE, RevA 2007-01-25, Autronica Fire and Security AS Page 6...
