Page 4: S- Introduction
The system can be purchased as a 2 axis system (EML1200) or as a lower cost single axis system (EML1100) As the hardware is the same on both, the EML1100 can be upgraded to EML1200 at a later stage using a pay option. -
Page 5: Terminology
Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 This means the system gives an accurate 2 dimensional measurement of the speed of the vessel through the water at the surface of the sensor/vessel hull. As the hull can drag some water with it, a calibration is needed to adjust for both angular mounting errors of the sensor, and speed differences between the sensor reading and the actual speed through water at different speeds. -

Page 10: H - Connection Of The System
Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 ND-799 - Getting issue details... STATUS 2.4.2. H - Connection of the system... - Page 11 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 Connection can be direct to the sensor from the sensor port, or via an optional JB40 Electronic buffer unit. The JB40 unit can be mounted near the sensor or on the bridge, and provides a buffer and diagnostic port for the unit.
- Page 12 The sensor is supplied with 40 m of cable. This should be guided to a dry area where a junction box (yard supply or SKIPPER part JB12) should be used to extend the cable to the bridge. The sensor is a smart sensor and outputs propriety NMEA messages. This standard is based on RS- 422, so cable lengths should not be a problem.
- Page 13 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 to function normally. If the voltage is low we recomend using the JB40POW unit as a buffer for both signals, but also AC can be fed to the unit to boost the sensor power. 2.4.2.4.1.

Page 14: Power Requirements
Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 2.4.3. Power requirements: The Display unit and sensor can be powered by 24V from the display, The JB40Pow unit can be used as a AC DC converter, so that the display is connected powered from the JB40POW, alternatively the JB40Pow can be powered from the display. - Page 15 In this case, special length hull fitting and sensor may be ordered from SKIPPER. Before hull fitting installation procedure is initiated, always check that the hull fitting valve can be properly operated and that the sensor can be removed in the selected location.

If the system has not been setup a setup screen will show on startup. Here you must enter the supplied code for the system and then the system will setup. If this code is not availalble it can be downloaded from skipper website or by using the QR code that shows on the screen. - Page 17 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 2.5.2.1. C- Network The system has 2 independent network ports, both communicate with both TCP/IP and multicast (UDP) (IEC61162-450) this allows the system to be connected to the ships internal networks. The system will exert a maximun load of of ??20??kB7s (kilobytes per second) and will tolorate a data traffic of up to ??20??Mbits per second.

Page 29: S- Calibration
Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 Non critical errors could be , cannot connect to sensor, the error type is shown in the diagnostic screen 2.8. S- Calibration The calibration setup is split into installation offset, speed, and auxiliary calibrations. Sensor calibration can vary at different speeds of the vessel due to drag of the water, or bubble / Turbulance formation, so the system has possibility to calibrate the sensor at 5 different speed zones. - Page 30 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 The Status screen shows the status of the calibrations on the left and shows the current speed graphs 5 points. This graph usiually shows a reasnobly straight line with a slight increase in the gradient of the curve at faster speeds.

Page 31: S Installation Angle
Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 2.8.2. -S Installation angle Offset adjustment adjusts any angular mounting variations relative to the ship. The adjustment can be up to +-180 degrees, however some sensors do not have as good resolution at higher adjustment angles so installation should aim to be as close to zero as possible. - Page 32 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 If you wish to adjust an individual speed offset The right side of the screen shows the current values, these are either previously adjusted manual settings, default or generated by the sea test. if not active, these can be adjusted by activating the desired speed zone, and adjusting the real speed (from GPS) and the measured speed from the sensor.
- Page 33 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 To get the most accurate calibration , the ystem needs to compensate for current within the sea. The simplest way to do this without having a reference system is to sail the vessel in opposite directions within the same part of the sea so that the vessel measure s the current in opposite directions and cancels it.
- Page 34 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 once selected, the vessel should move into position for the start of the leg and accelerate to the correct speed . on start the vessel will show the following screen The status ibn the middle field will turn green when the desired stability is achieved.
- Page 35 Document status Link to Spec owner Last edit 1 - author 4 May 23 The vessel sails at the same Heading, until the correct distance is reached. It will then stop (or be manually stopped by the crew if GPS is not available) The vessel then accelerates/decelerates to the next speed and repeats.
