User’s Guide VII 1 I n t ro d u c t i o n t o t h e T T M S S y s t e m Hi-G-Tek’s Tanker Truck Monitoring System (TTMS) secures the tanker fueling hatches and decanting valves and enables continuous real time remote monitoring of the vehicle at all points on the route. Any unauthorized attempts to access the secured hatches or valves are recorded on the seals and invoke real-time, detailed alarms at the Control Center. The tanker access points are secured with programmed electronic seals. These are monitored by a Reader installed in the truck cabin. The Reader reports, via GPRS or SMS, to the remote control center of any unusual events along with clock and location information acquired through GPS. The control center can also transmit commands or information to the seals via the Reader. An LED display mounted inside the cabin provides visual indication of the status of each seal, enabling the operator at the refinery to see, at a glance, whether an attempt has been made to tamper with the vehicle hatches or valves – before authorizing the fueling procedure. Fleet Application User’s Guide Introduction to the TTMS System System Operation GPS Communication Control Center AVL Reader Hatch/Valve seal LED Seal Status Indicator Figure 1-1. Main features and capabilities • Real time alerts transmitted to the control center through GPRS (in addition to SMS) • GPS location tracking and clock • Remote control and management of the system elements from the control center • Areas of valid refinery and gas station areas are configured to prevent unauthorized activities outside the defined sites • System is configurable to support one or two tankers, where configuration can be easily modified • Independently runs routines to monitor the seals for unusual events defined according to specific scenarios • Battery backup mode ensures continuous operation and support of the essential features in case the power supply from the vehicle is interrupted • LED display provides a local visual indication of the status of the seals to the operator or inspector Tanker Truck Monitoring System- User’s Guide Introduction to the TTMS System System Operation 1.1 System Operation The valve and cover of each section are protected by an electronic seal with sensors. The seals are monitored by the Reader installed in the cabin. The seals record various events (according to the configuration) and transmit notifications such as open/closed to the Reader via HF. The TTMS Reader forwards the events received from the seals to the Control Center via cellular, along with location and time information received via GPS. In the other direction, commands from the Control Center are forwarded by the Reader to the seals. In addition, the Seal Status Display shows, at a glance, a summary of the status of each seal as OK (GREEN) or tampered (RED). The following figure illustrates communication between the TTMS Reader and the other system elements. Tanker Truck Monitoring System- User’s Guide Introduction to the TTMS System Seals 1.2 Seals UL recognized for Intrinsic Safety - file number: E256795 The seals are portable, reusable electronic devices installed on each hatch and valve. The seals perform the following functions: • Physically secure the access point (hatch or valve) • Monitor the access point through sensors and generate status information and alarms corresponding to various programmed conditions • Store user data for retrieval Two types of seals are provided in the TTMS: hatch seals and valve seals. The seals differ in the length of the locking pin and the mounting bracket. 1.2.1.1 Seals for Valves There are two types of valve seals whose closing mechanism corresponds to different types of valves: • Valves that close through a circular CCW (up to 270°) turn of the handle • Valves that close through a perpendicular pull of the handle – north to south The following figures show seals assembled on valves with a ‘pull’ closing mechanism 1.2.1.2 Seals for Hatches Tanker Truck Monitoring System- User’s Guide Introduction to the TTMS System TTMS Reader 1.3 TTMS Reader The TTMS Reader performs the following functions: • Monitors the seals • Receives clock and location co-ordinates from GPS • Transmits seal events to the Control Center, along with GPS coordinates • Transfers seals status information to the Seal Status Display • Forwards commands from the Control Center to the seals The TTMS Reader consists of two interconnected modules installed inside the cabin, and the corresponding antennas: • AVL Reader module and corresponding antenna • GPS and Cellular (i.e. GPRS/GSM) module and corresponding antennas - add on (off the shelf unit (manufactured by STARCOM) The AVL unit is described in detail in the following sub-section (information on the STARCOM unit is supplied in the corresponding User Manual). 1.3.1 AVL Reader NOTE: This section provides a general description of the AVL Reader, functions and connections. For a full description of the AVL specifications, refer to 5.1 The AVL Reader uses active wireless technology to provide automatic processing and real-time monitoring of cargos during transit. The reader powered from the truck power (24V) is installed inside the truck's cabin, It has read/write capabilities for communicating with the cargo/tank sensors simultaneously in order to verify their presence and status. The reader uses two RF channels (LF, HF) for communication. It is equipped with back-up battery and supports two RS232 channels in addition to one RS485 channel for communicating with other devices of the Tanker Truck Monitoring System (TTMS). As aforesaid the AVL Reader performs three major functions: • Communicates (two-way) with and monitors the seals over a HF channel • Transfers (two-way) information between the seals and the GPS/Cellular modem • Provides seal status to the Seal Status Display Communication with the seals The AVL Reader communicates with the seals via a HF antenna that is installed externally on the cabin roof – on the side of the valves on which seals are installed (usually passenger side). The AVL Reader is powered via the vehicle’s battery. Reader Setup The AVL Reader is configured via a local connection between the Reader and a computer on which the AVL Reader Config application is installed and launched.
