Data Sheet BlueTraker® VMS - V1.0 Edition: Autumn 2013 Data Sheet BlueTraker® VMS BlueTraker® VMS communication terminal High performance surveillance for fisheries monitoring The BlueTraker® VMS is the next generation of innovative and reliable marine-grade fisheries monitoring system consisting of a BlueTraker® communication terminal and a wiring cabinet - ConBox 2013. Not only does it provide a reliable and secure positional data information and bidirectional communication, but the BlueTraker® VMS brings a range of new and unique features that make it an ideal choice when compliance with the latest requirements of regulatory bodies is sought. Unique features are: Double shell housing Hybrid communications Embedded geozones Data encryption eLogbook ready ConBox Alert Button ConBox InPort switch Inmarsat & NAF protocol support Brief overview: Fully approved and certified The BlueTraker® VMS is fully compliant with the standards and regulations covering vessel monitoring systems for fisheries, including the IEC 60945. It complies with EU, NEAFC, NAFO and SEAFO regulations on data exchange as well as bilateral agreements commonly made between countries. The unit has been designed with a special emphasis on EU Commission Regulation 2244/2003, 1224/2009 and Commission Implementing Regulation No. 404/2011. However, it not only meets these requirements but exceeds them, offering especially tailored features that are recognized as essential by government bodies inside and outside the EU. Inherent safety and security The BlueTraker® VMS incorporates an extensive range of mechanical, electrical and electromagnetic integrity measures designed to prevent tampering and fraud and to ensure safety on-board. The Alert Button (i.e. SOS button...) and InPort switch (stops transmission when in the port...) are integrated in the connection box. A unique serial number is engraved into the housing while tamper detection, antenna blockage detection, security seals and external four-colour Status LED indicators complete the picture. Message data encryption and authentication A strong combination of device authentication and data encryption is used to prevent unauthorized modification of data sent to the Fisheries Monitoring Centre. Built-in authentication guards against fraudulent misrepresentation of false devices. Embedded geozones Up to 100 geographical areas in the form of geo-fences can be remotely uploaded, edited, activated and deactivated in each and every BlueTraker® VMS terminal by using land based servers. These geographical areas can be programmed for a range of specific operational rules. The BlueTraker® VMS will send alert messages when the vessel enters or exits geozones. Remote fishing gear monitoring BlueTraker® VMS provides a range of connectivity and integration capabilities which means that virtually unlimited number of onboard fishing gear sensors can be connected and monitored directly from the Fisheries Monitoring Centre. These sensors provide the authority with the ability to promptly assess the fishing activity onboard every vessel in the fleet.

Data Sheet BlueTraker® VMS Advanced dual channel communication The BlueTraker® VMS terminal automatically and effectively reduces the cost of monitoring by using two wireless communication channels for operation. In this configuration the terminal communicates via Iridium satellite network or (when close to shore) via mobile GPRS network. Each device can be configured to operate under specific reporting schemes, taking into consideration national, EU and global geographies. eLogbook ready The BlueTraker® VMS endorses the worldwide eLogbook initiative to eradicate illegal, unregulated and...
