Data Acquisition System by Using the Ethernet LAN on Board

—case of Training Ship OSHIMAMARU—

Abstract

A new data acquisition system by using the Ethernet LAN has been developed in cooperation with the authors and Sena Co. The data acquisition system has been installed in the T. S. OSHIMAMARU which belongss to Oshima National College of Maritime Technology.
This paper describes the outline of the system mentioned above and the sea trial results. The test records show the load change clearly due to the operation of the ship. Finally, the data acquisition system proposed newly is proved to be a very useful one by illustrating the results of our experiments.
