Solution
Yanacom onboard solution was designed to provide all benefits of PC technology that can be used on board of a vessel or sailing
ship.UsingYanacom Navigation Software,the system acts as a fully integrated navigation center,able to interface with GPS,Decca,
ARPA equipped Radar and other navigation instruments.
An optional monitor or fly-bridge repeater,keyboard and mouse connector are available for expansion. The hard disk is shock resistant,
while the touchscreen is panel mounted in a splash-proof front (IP65).The Panel PC operates on 12Volt or 24 Volt DC power supply
for smaller vessels and sailing boats,or 100 ~ 250VoltAC for larger vessel sand yachts.
System
Advantech's PPC-102T sports remarkable characteristics:splash-proof front, compact and rugged design, four serial interfaces for
GPS,echo sounder,speed log,auto piloting and other peripherals,printer port,touchscreen for onscreen menu,and VGA-Output for
an extra monitor.Needless to say,the system fulfilled mostof the requirements.
A rugged 1.8" industrial EIDE hard disk drive was used,allowing the PPC-102T to operate under the harshest conditions.The Panel
PC could either be installed with 50 Watt 12Volt or 24Volt DC - converters,which were supplied by our Advantech Europe Division in
Dusseldorf.
Yanacom Softwareuses digitized charts,which displays bright andTFT color display. The scale could be adjustedto the users' preferences.
When linked to the GPS,the boat's latitude and longitude are displayed numerically and graphically along with the course and speed.
Routes could be pre-planned on the touchscreen and saved for later use. Detailed information on all charted lights,buoys,beacons,
rocks,wrecks,and many other elements were accessible within a finger touch.

Introduction
Since the introduction of electronic navigation systems and digitalized electronic
charts,the demand for data processing on board of vessels and sailing yachts
has highly increased.Yanacom's onboard PC solution,the latest development
in navigation,weather routing and forecasting,satellite communication,electronic
log books have all added to the need for a rugged compact Panel-PC hardware
for onboard installation.
Benefits
The compact design allowed the PPC-102T to fit in anylimited space on board of a vessel or sailing ship
The user-friendly touchscreen provided an on-screen menu,which made information easy accessible.
The IP 65 front panel protection ideally suited the sailing conditions
Introduction
In the transportation industry,Global Positioning System (GPS) is widely
used in survey,mapping,navigation,positioning, machine control and
other applications.
Also,in warehourse application, a folk lift with a computing appliance
could easily andreal-time retrive andaccess information as wellas record
and transmit the data through the wireless capacity of computing.
There is control platform for data processing and communication.All the
data are transferred via Ethernet,fiber optic lines and spread spectrum
radio.
The feature of transportation industry environment will be the vibration,
shock,water and low temperature.
