Stable power on the cage and barge
Stable internet
These requirements define the optimal environment for CageEye systems. If any of the requirements are not met the CageEye service will be impacted as described in each point.
Environmental parameter limitations: EN/NO/ES Environmental parameters limtiations / Grenseverdier for bruk / Límites de exposición ambiental
Component | Problem | Solution |
---|---|---|
Cage type: | ![]() Conflict between the top bracket fixture and the handrail post. | Use stainless ratchet straps or rope to tie the top part of the bracket to the pole. |
CageEye is verified to be compatible with:
Aeration device: Midt-Norsk ringen and equivalents.
Predator nets
Potentially challenging components
Component | Challenge | Solution / Løsning |
---|---|---|
Aeratio/diffusion devices that makes airbubbles smaller than Ø 1mm. | The echosounder may pick up on the bubbles and get a poor measurement of the fish position. | Place the aeration/diffusion device outside the measurement volume. |
Aside from these components, the equipment is compatible with any other component that is not directly interfering with it.
Minimum 15m deep nets, which gives a 13m sensor head distance.
CageEye is compatible with these feeding systems. The blowers, dosing, changers, piping, feed spreaders need to be in working condition.
What happens if the requirement is not met: You will not get feeding data and you might not be able to feed. |
The CageEye system requires max 500w @ 230V 50hz at the barge.
The system complies with the international EMC standards: IEC/EN 60950-1, IEC/EN 61000-3-3, IEC/EN 61000-6-1 and IEC/EN 61000-6-3.
A ground fault circuit interrupter must be used.
In case of power source problems such as noise, spikes, brownouts and blackouts, a UPS system needs to be installed to accommodate continuous power stability and availability.
What happens if the requirement is not met: Service stops as soon as the power to the server and antenna is broken. This is mitigated by using a UPS(battery). |
Estimated continuous power requirements for all sensor devices in cage: 60 W.
The CageEye system requires 60 W @ 230V 50hz outlet at the cage. The power supply must have a C16A or a D16A circuit breaker. A ground fault circuit interrupter must be used.
What happens if the requirement is not met: Service stops as soon as the power is interrupted. This is mitigated by using a UPS(battery). |
CageEye uses two operating models. Customer managed network, and unmanged network.
Service | Upload | Uptime | Latency | Packet Loss | Jitter |
Remote real time monitoring and/or feeding control | 5 Mbps | 100% | 150 ms | 1% over 10 minutes | 15% |
CageEye will install a server on the barge that needs to be on the same network as the feeding systems and the feeding cameras. Remote connections to operations centers can be set up in cooperation with the customers technical staff. CageEye needs to use radios to communicate with the sensors on the cages.
Type | Port | Used for | Traffic |
TCP | 1194 | Communication through OpenVPN with CageEye cloud servers; and remote servicing. | Incoming and outgoing |
What happens if the requirement is not met: Dataflow and remote services are interrupted. Data is buffered for some time until recovery. |
For a detailed requirements for operating in customer managed networks see this page. [Private]https://bluegrove.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TRB/pages/1305903173/Bluegrove+Cybersecurity+practices#Operating-in-customer-managed-networks. Ask a CageEye representative to get access to this page.
If no cage to barge network is available, CageEye can set up a cage to barge network with radio. We typically use the 5GHz band. We use Ubiquity Rocket AC on the barge, and Ubiquity Bullet AC on the cage.
We configure the radio to use given frequencies between 5190-5940 GHz, alternatively the radio can be configured to automatically seek out new frequencies detects interference.
