EASTERN Paciric neg | ECDIS QUESTIONS the ECDIS prior any in: ‘What display mode is the system current operating on? There are 3 displays on all kinds of ECDIS ice a. Base b. Standard c. Other Base display cannot be edited by user, hence is always on the ECDIS screen. “Standard Display Layers” is editable in some makes (JRC & FURUNO), but this display is the minimum display required as per IMO required during Navigation & Passage planning. Important point to note is that, this display does NOT include soundings and other important navigational marks, hence as per our procedures “Standard Display” is not sufficient for Navigation & Passage Planning, “Other Display Layers” is editable in all makes of ECDIS. Refer to EEG 6.3.2 & 7.2.6.2 for layers to be displayed in addition to “Standard display” during Passage Planning & Monitoring a route. ask: Show how to change between different display systems in your ECDIS.

Please include a separate section of ECDIS in your orders. “Standing Orders” should specifically contain ECDIS setting that should not be changed without his consent.

In all makes, watch-keeper should ensure that following alerts are never activated on the ECDIS for longer time: a. Over-Scale (means over “Zoomed in” and hence needs to be zoomed out till no more alerts. Over Zoom is also indicted by numerous parallel vertical lines on the ENC) b. Under Scale (means over “Zoomed out” and hence needs to be zoomed in till alerts ic. “Large Scale Data exist or Under Scale etc. are not active anymore.) No Scale related Alerts active on the screen is the best Seale. Task: Demonstrate how do you get best scale on your ECDIS screen. (= Master | co, Ea 210 | 3/0, 5, What is SCAMIN? SCAMIN stands for “Scale Minimum”, itis scale below which the some charted objects will no longer be displayed, and hence with ‘SCMAMIN’ ON and incorrect scale, there may be possibility that some chartered objects are not visible.
