18.2.8 How to display own ship data
You can see own ship's data on the [Own Ship] page in the [NAV Status] menu. Open
the menu then click both [NAV Status] in the [TT/AIS] menu and the [Own Ship] tab.
18.3 Association
An AIS-equipped ship is usually displayed by two symbols on the chart for radar dis-
play. This is because the AIS ship position is measured by a GPS navigator (L/L)
whereas the radar detects the same ship by PPI principle (range and bearing relative
to own ship radar antenna).
To avoid the presentation of two target symbols for the same physical target, use the
“association” function. If target data from both AIS and TT are available and if the as-
sociation criteria are fulfilled, either the AIS or TT symbol is presented according to the
association method selected.
Association will not happen between AIS and TT if the AIS target is sleeping or the AIS
target is lost.
All association settings, including ON/OFF, can also be controlled from the radar
mode, with the [TT/AIS] setting box (see section 4.14). All settings are mutually
shared.
18.3.1 How to select association method
Click the location circled below to show "<" to select AIS symbol for associated target,
or ">" to select TT symbol for associated target. This setting overrides the correspond-
ing item on the [TT/AIS] menu. To turn off association, click the location to remove the

19. RECORDING FUNCTIONS
The chart radar records various voyage-related items like movement and position of
own ship and dangerous radar targets (from Radar). These items are recorded in the
following logs:
19.1 How to Record User, Position Events
19.1.1 User events
A user event is a comment about an event
(weather, etc.). You can show user events
on the chart area. Open the [Tracking]
page of the [Symbol Display] menu show
or hide the events.
To record a user event:
1. Get into the Voyage planning mode
then click the [Record], [Event Log]
and [User Event] buttons on the In-
stantAccess bar to show the [Record
User Event] window.
2. Enter a comment. Click the [OK] but-
ton to finish and close the text box.
An event marker ( ) appears at your position and the event is recorded to the [Voy-
age] log.
To view the comment entered for
an event, put the cursor on the
event then left click to show the
[Event Information] window. The
window shows the name of the
event ([UserEvent]), time and date
of entry, latitude and longitude po-
sition of the event and comment.
Note that the comment can be edited from this window. Edit the comment then click
the [OK] button to save.
Event log: Records user events and position events.
NAV log: Records entire voyage (i.e., a sailing of a route from first point to the last,
also MOB data), details (position, speed and course every minute), chart
usage (information on charts used for display).
Target log: Records dangerous TT.
Alert log: Records alerts generated by the system.
Chart log: Records the install and update history for the ENC and C-MAP charts.

19.1.2 Position events
The operator may manually save positions to the [Event] log by position or LOP (Line
of Position):
To record a position, get into the Voyage navigation mode or Voyage planning mode
then do as follows:
1. Click the [Record], [Event Log] and [POSN Event] buttons on the InstantAccess
bar to show the [Position Event] dialog box.
2. At the list box at the top of the dialog box, select position type.
[Manual]: Manual input of ship’s position. Go to step 4.
[LOP]: Latitude and longitude position of a fixed object at ship's position. Go to
step 5.
[Position]: Ship’s position fed from navigator selected. Go to step 3.
3. For [Position], click the [Record] button.
The position event mark appears at the ship’s position. The position is recorded
to the [Voyage] log.

[Record] button.
The position event mark appears at the manual input position. The position is re-
corded to the [Voyage] log.
5. For [LOP], see the description below.
Position fixes defined by Line of Position (LOP)
A plotted line on which a vessel is located, determined by observation or measure-
ment of the range or bearing to an aid to navigation or other charted element. Two or
more simultaneous observations can be combined to produce an estimate of the
ship's current position. If the position is based on only two observations, it is an "esti-
mated position" (EP); otherwise it is called a fix. A maximum of 6 observations can be
entered to obtain a fix.
Basic operation: Coordinates of the aid to navigation can be entered into dialog box-
es or they can be selected graphically on the chart. Click on a charted object (beacon,
light, buoy etc.). Description of the object appears above coordinate boxes.
Default values for bearing and range are approximated from ship's current position in-
formation. The time of observation is stopped when the object is selected (or when the
[Add] button is clicked). Click the [Add] box to include the observation in the fix com-
putation. The counter shows "new/1", at the input of the second observation. The word
"new" indicates that the observation currently displayed is not yet included in the fix
computation, and it appears as a dashed line or ring on the chart. The added obser-
vations can be edited or deleted after selecting them at the counter. When at least two
measurements are entered, the EP or fix is computed and the coordinates are shown
in the top part of the dialog.To show a position symbol on the chart, click the [Record]
button. In the case of an EP, the letters EP are shown on the right side of the coordi-
nates. If a valid position estimate cannot be obtained, a message is displayed under
the coordinates. This may happen, for example, if the lines / circles have multiple
crossings that are far apart, or if two lines are nearly parallel or don't intersect at all.
The accuracy limit (estimated standard error) is 1.0 NM. If the estimate is valid, the
[Record] box can be clicked to record the current position estimate in the [Voyage] log.
Discrepancy between LOP result and ship position is also recorded in the log (this in-
formation may be viewed by Info query on the position event symbol on the chart -
which is displayed if position event display is on in chart display settings).
Enter position manually. Enter comment
here if required.

Time transfer: If the observations are not simultaneous, they should be transferred to
a common time. Transferring is based on dead reckoning of ship movement. If a po-
sition line (or ring) is transferred, the letters TPL are shown beside its timestamp on
the chart. The method of transfer may be selected in the bottom of the dialog. [Trans-
fer to latest] transfers the measurements as if they were all made at the time of the
newest measurement. [Continuous transfer] transfers all measurements to real time.
[Transfer off] can be used to check where the measurement origins are. The position
estimate and the record function follow the same logic, which means that Transfer off
shows a position that has no relevance and Transfer to latest sends an old position to
the [Voyage] log (timestamp in the log does not match the position).
If you are satisfied with the position shown in the latitude and longitude fields, then
click the [Record] button to save the position observation to the Voyage log. If you wish
you can also enter latitude and longitude values manually.
Timeouts: The observations cannot be used long after they were made because dead
reckoning is inaccurate.
Click the [Record] button to put a position event at the LOP-calculated position. The
position is recorded to the [Voyage] log.
How to find position event information
You can find information about a position event by putting the cursor on the event
mark then left click. The [Event Position] window shows event type (position event),
time of entry, event position, name of sensor ([Position] only), comment (automatic for
[LOP] and [Position]; user-entered comment* for [Manual]), and position line data
([LOP] only).

20. ALERTS
20.1 What is an Alert?
“Alert" is a generic name for a notice to any unusual or potentially dangerous situation
generated within the system.
Alerts are classified according to priority and category.
Alert priority
There are three alert priorities: alarm, warning and caution.
Alarm: Situations or conditions which require immediate attention, decision and (if
necessary) action by the bridge team to avoid any kind of hazardous situation and to
maintain the safe navigation of the ship.
Warning: Situations or conditions which require immediate attention for precautionary
reasons, to make the bridge team aware of conditions which are not immediately haz-
ardous, but may become so.
Caution: Awareness of a condition which continues to require attention out of the or-
dinary consideration of the situation or of given information.
Alert category
An alert is further classified by category, A, B or C, according to its degree of severity
or source.
Category Description
A Category A alerts include alerts indicating
• Danger of collision
• Danger of grounding
B Category B alerts are alerts where no additional information for decision
support is necessary. Category B alerts are all alerts not falling under
category A.
C IAS (Integrated Automation System) generated engine alert

20.2 Alert Box
When an alert is generated, the related alert message and alert state icon appear in
the [Alert] box, which is at the bottom right corner on the screen. An audible alarm is
additionally generated for alarms and warnings.

20.7 Alert Reception from Connected Sensors
An "ALR receive and ACK transmit" communication is available for every serial line
input. The ALR message from the sensor includes information about alerts from the
sensor, and is presented though the normal alert system. When you acknowledge an
alert, an ACK message is sent to the sensor to do remote acknowledge.
This interface is based on IEC 61162-1 and IEC 80/520/INF.

21.1 Ship and Route Parameters
The purpose of the ship and route parameters is set the basic parameters for the ship.
These parameters are relative to ship steering and they are very important to get cor-
rect function of the integrated navigation system. They must be maintained carefully.
Modification requires a good knowledge of the parameters' importance.
Open the menu and select [Ship & Route Parameters] from the [General] menu to
show the [Ship & Route] page. Set each item referring to the description below.
Ship parameters description
[MAX Speed]: Maximum speed the ship can do.
[MAX Height]: Max. height of ship above sea level.
[MAX Draught]: Max. draught of ship.
Route parameters description
[MAX R.O.T]*: The maximum rate of turn of the ship. Set at installation.
[WPT Approach]*: The alert time before reaching the wheel over point.
[WPT Prewarning]*: The alert time before reaching the wheel over point.
[Default Line Radius]: Define the default value of radius between waypoints during au-
tomatic route steering.
[Default CH Limit]: Define the default value of channel limit.
[Default Safety Margin]: Define the default value of extension for channel limits to be
checked against selected alerts.
* Set at installation and cannot be changed by the operator.
21. PARAMETERS
21-2
21.2 Instant Track Parameters
The instant track feature can create, in route monitoring, a simple route in the following
situations:
• Return to the monitored route when the vessel goes outside the channel limits.
• Temporarily deviate from the monitored route (avoid collision, etc.).
How to set instant track parameters
Set the parameters for the instant track ([MENU] → [General] → [Ship & Route Pa-
rameters] → [Instant Track] tab).
[Delay before Initiating First Turn]: Set the number of seconds (30 - 600 seconds) to
wait before initiating the first turn in the simple route.
[Turn Radius]: Set the turning radius (0.02 - 3.00 NM) to use between waypoints (four
waypoints) in the simple route.
[Channel Limit for Track Control]: Set the channel limit (10 - 1852 m) for the instant
track, automatically or manually. The [Auto] setting uses the channel limit set for the
monitored route.
21. PARAMETERS

21.3 Cost Parameters
The cost parameters are used in the optimization calculation. Therefore define these
parameters before doing the calculation.
Open the menu and select [Cost Parameters] from the [General] menu to show the
[Cost Parameters] page. Set each item according to ship’s plan, etc.
At the [Cost] window, enter the cost/hour and cost/ton for heavy fuel oil and diesel oil.
At the [Fuel Consumption] window, define the fuel consumption figures for up to 12
different speeds. Before entering the data, plot the data on a graph, like the one shown
below. Use a second graph if, for example, diesel oil consumption is different from that
of heavy fuel oil. Reset the power to effect the settings.
