The objective of the Adonis Gangway Control system is to be able to at all times count the actual number of crew members on board, as well as automate the sign-on and sign-off process.

Based on the state of a person (onboard / ashore) the system presents various functionality.

The system can read a magnetic stripe, a barcode, or an RFID card. Alternatively, the employee can enter his pin or passcode.

Functionality

Actual Sign on/off

The Adonis Gangway Contorl System is used to confirm the crew’s Onboard activity, enabling the crew to use the Adonis Crew Portal for Time & Attendance and to appear on IMO Crew List reports, etc.

It can also be used to confirm a sign-off, closing the person’s current Onboard activity by setting a Date To into the activity record.

In Port

To be able to produce an actual crew list when in port the system can't rely on the onboard activities as a person can be ashore for the whole or partial period of time the vessel is in port. The onboard activity only registers the actual sign-on and sign-off, (start and end of a tour of duty) which is used in the payroll calculation. This means the system needs to track if a person is actually onboard or off-board without closing the activity each time the person is leaving the vessel.

Via the Adonis Gangway Control System a crew can sign out for a Shore Visit, which will remove him from the Onboard lists until he/she is physically back onboard.

Gangway Access Control Panel

The Adonis Gangway Control System presents Gangway Access Control Panel - the actual unit located at the gangway where the crew member signs in and signs out.


After the crew member authentication, the system recognizes the following states:

Sign-On/Board

Sign-On

State 1: A person has a Planned onboard (sea-service) activity for today

Information screen where after clicking Sign-On, the system activates the planned onboard activity in APM, and it becomes current.

On the next screen the crew member can select the needed work type:

State 2: A person authenticating on the control panel is not registered with a Planned onboard activity for “today”

Information screen and the person will need to contact his Team Leader who should create a planned onboard activity for him from “today”.

Board

State 3: Current onboard activity exists and the crew member's state is off-boarded

The system prompts the user to Board the vessel:

Click the Board button:

Sign-Off/Shore Visit

State 4: A person authenticating is registered onboard
When swiping his card/entering details the system presents the crew member with two possibilities:

Shore visit Or Sign Off.

Sign off:

  1. The current onboard activity in APM is closed (becomes historical) with the Date To = signing off date.

  2. If the next planned leave activity exists, it becomes current with Date from = Sign off date + 1 day

Shore Visit:

  1. The current onboard activity stays current, and the state of the person is changed to off-board.

We offer the possibility for visual and audial warning if a vessel is planned to leave in x number of minutes.

Setup

How to Enable Gangway Functionality
Note: if you are going to use Gangway functionality on a vessel for the first time, you need to insert/add

Gangway Control buttons.
Please run the following script on each vessel where you are going to use Gangway:

  • Instead of xxx please use I nt. Org. ID from vessel properties (unique for every vessel).

In can be found in the APM > Setup > Organisation Structure > Vessel Properties > Identification. 

declare @VesselId int
set @VesselId = XXX
insert into [WEB_CP_GANGWAY_ACTIONS] ([SEQUENCENO], [NAME], [TYPE], [NUMORGID], [INFO], [DISABLED])
                              values (1, 'Sign On', 100, @VesselId, null, 0)
insert into [WEB_CP_GANGWAY_ACTIONS] ([SEQUENCENO], [NAME], [TYPE], [NUMORGID], [INFO], [DISABLED])
                              values (2, 'Sign Off', 200, @VesselId, null, 0)
