i am assigned a task to do a presentation on Ship's Alarm Control and Monitoring System (ACMS). The system should be a centralised system which integrates control and monitoring of the various shipboard systems.

The presentation should include:

1) Standards and regulations related to ACMS requirements on ship

2) Basic configuration/architecture and specifications of ACMS.

3) Various functions/controls:
a) Alarm Monitoring Functions
b) Control System Operations
c) Power Management System Functions

4) Different types of sensors used

The website doesn't have much information. Does you guys suggest me some resources in internet or books for me to prepare for the presentation?

Thank you very much.

 

Can we have a copy of your presentation?

 

Hi there,

For latest rules and regulations and any other marine and shipping info go to,

IMO (International Marine Organization)

http://www.imo.org/

and,

SOLAS (Safety of live at sea)

http://www.imo.org/Conventions/contents.asp?topic_id=257&doc_id=647

You can also look at the Honeywell system already in use.

 

Hi Sam,

Noting much information in IMO. They are more to the classification and regulation. Need some explanation on the System diagram and the reason why it is used.
