The Gangway Control Monitor module is designed to control onboard crew members who have shore-visits during stay in a port but without signing off.

Housekeeping

Before getting started with the module, navigate to Global Options > Import/Export > Web Service:

In the TimeClock section, enter a valid URL which looks like:

ServerName/AdonisWebServices_APPInstanceName/TimeClockWebService.svc

Let us consider the URL components in detail:

• ServerName is a name of the server on which the Adonis Administrator Portal is installed.
• AdonisWebServices is required for calling Adonis web services. The component is not subject to modification.
• APPInstanceName is the APP instance name which you set when installing the APP application. In case an instance name was not defined during the installation, skip this component.
• TimeClockWebService is required for calling TimeClock web service. The component is not subject to modification.

On completing, click Test.

In case the connection has been successfully established, the following message appears on the screen:

Click OK to proceed.

Functionality

The module enables a responsible officer to sign off crew members who did not return to the ship after shore visits as well as to sign on those coming onboard.

To get started, click the Gangway Control Monitor button on the Modules ribbon. The module becomes active from the Manage tab where you can start managing it:

1. Off board 
   Tab listing all crew members registered to be off-board.
   It is used to view who is ashore and gives the possibility to correct erroneous registrations and confirm off-signers.
   Grid shows not only person's Pin, Name, Position but also Reason (Shore Visit/Signing Off), Location (its exact location according to the setup of your Time Clock) and Time when he passed the gangway.
2. Refresh - allows you to manually refresh the list.
   When open, module is automatically refreshed each 30 seconds to show the actual state of Onboard crew (with Current sea-service activity) who are registered ashore through Gangway Control system.
   But can be refreshed on command.
   
   Sign Off - if a person was not able to get onboard but the ship has already left port, person can be signed off. His sea-service activity becomes historical with Date To = current date.
   
   Board - if a person is confirmed onboard but forgot to register through Time Clock panel, administrator can confirm his boarding. He will disappear from the Monitoring list.
