“…Reports indicate that alarm monitoring issues are the biggest single issue affecting safety in modern engine control rooms [1], [2], [3], [4]. Reported issues include distractions from nuisance alarms, confused and unclear alarm messages, inappropriate use of alarms to convey non-critical information, long standing alarm lists, and difficulty in alarm interpretations.…”

Alarms affect operations in most part of the ship. Their impact on modern Engine Control Room operations is no less significant. The state of an alarm system serves as an indication of the extent to which the ship's operations are under management control. Thus, the design of efficient and reliable alarm monitoring system is vital for safe and sound operations. Although several design techniques have been proposed, all the proposed design methods employ sophisticated and expensive approaches in resolving alarm issues. In this paper, a cheap, yet reliable and efficient alarm design method for engine room device monitoring is presented. The design method employs PLCs and SCADA-based system and adopts certain basic design requirements of alarm monitoring system presented in literary works. Reasons for such a design method are highlighted, and the programming platforms for the design are given. The strengths and weaknesses of some design methods presented in some published works are reported and solutions to such problems are proposed. The proposed design technique, including fault diagnostic algorithm, have been subjected to real-time online testing at the shipyard, specifically Changjiang Waterway Bureau, China (ship name-Ning Dao 501). The testing results proved that this design technique is reliable, efficient and effective for online engine control room device monitoring.

“…They implemented PLC based controller to handle any type of high and medium capacity heater system. Lakshmi et al [8] presented the experimental validation procedure of a simple cascade control system through number of architectures, such as SCADA, PLC and internet. The performance and effectiveness of individual architecture is evaluated on the basis of data rate, rise time, peak time and settling time.…”

Wireless technologies are rapidly being adapted from simple monitoring and control to supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. Wireless provides highly reliable data communications in harsh and interference-heavy environment. In this article, new wireless SCADA system has been built to control Al-Najaf cement plant wirelessly. Two pieces of nanostation5 (5GHz) which utilize the Wi-Fi wireless technology and IEEE802.11/g standard were used. They used as transceiver for transmitting and receiving the information between master station (MS) and remote terminal units (RTUs). CIMON devices from KDT systems for experimental set-up were used. A more detailed focus on Iraq cement plants using wireless technologies for monitoring and control of the whole process as an application also was presented.
