1 General

1.1 General Information

Nautoconning is the central display and information system for the ship's command and is used for all applications, Route Monitoring, Collision Avoidance, Nav Data Control and Alert HMI.

Aligned with the SYNAPSIS INS, Radar and ECDIS (Electronic See Chart) Nautoconning can be placed in a Multifunction Console (MFC).

These INS functions can be reached via the MFC switch, placed on the top right of the display.

1.2 Tasks and Performance features

Nautoconning is a collection of INS Tasks:

• Navigation Control Data

• Status and Data Display

• Central Alert Management HMI

• Alert History

Other INS functions are part of the Nautoconning as well:

• System Status

• Sensor Selection

• AIS History

• Nav Tex History

In addition to the INS functionality other display pages can be included in the Nautoconning system. These additional pages are ship specific, in this case the page design are project or ship specific.

Example pages (see annex):

• Docking

• Repeater

• Instruments

1 Select SENSOR SELECTION

Step 1 The SENSOR SELECTION display is shown.

2 Select CCRS SELECTION MODE AUTO

In automatic sensor selection (AUTO) the CCRS uses the sensor with the best result of the integrity check as the source for the system level data. If there are multiple “best” sensors the sensor with the higher priority (according to the configured degradation path) is used.

2 Select CCRS SELECTION MODE MAN

In manual sensor selection mode (MAN), the user selects the source sensor for the system level data. As long as the sensor delivers data, use data are used. If the sensor does not deliver data, the CCRS switches to the next sensor in the configured degradation path. If the

best sensor recovers, the CCRS switches back to the selected sensor. If the user did not choose the best sensor according to the sensor rating of the CCRS, a “BETTER SENSOR AVAILABLE” caution is generated.

3 Exclude Sensors

The user can exclude sensors from automatic sensor selection. If a sensor is excluded, the sensor is not selected even if this sensor has the best quality rating.

4 MANUAL Position Value

Note The valid position information must be from the last hour. In this case the system calculation considered the actual heading and speed and this position information. Older position information will be not accepted from the system.

NO POSITION SENSORS AVAILABLE.

In this case the last good transferred position data displays in the active MANUAL dialogue screen. This position is the first anchor point for DEAD RECKONING. This anchor point can be changed manually using the on screen keyboard and can be set as new anchor position with the “MANUAL” button.

2.2.8 Selecting the CENTRAL ALERT MANAGEMENT (HMI) Display

The Central Alert Management reads in all navigational and system alarms, warnings and messages and displays them in the form of a table.

Each information line shows the status and alarm category, the cause, an information text and the date and time of generation.

Alarms and warnings are classified and displayed in three categories.

Category A

Category A alarms can only be acknowledged at the application where they are generated; e.g. Radar, ECDIS, or Autopilot.

Target related Alerts (e.g. CPA/TCPS) can be acknowledged on any Radar and ECDIS MFC display in a INS system.

Category B

Alarms and warnings of this category can be acknowledged at any MFC application (Radar, ECDIS) and at the CAM HMI.
