Button Function

All acoustic alerts mute for 30 seconds.

Scroll through the current alerts.

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/TCPA) can be acknowledged on any Radar and ECDIS MFC display in an INS system.

• Category B

Alarms and warnings of this category can be acknowledged at any MFC application (Radar, ECDIS) and at the CAM HMI. Active or unacknowledged alarms are always handled with the highest priority and in the order they are displayed.

• Category C

Alarms and warnings of this category cannot be acknowledged on the bridge, e.g., certain alerts from the engine. The audible annunciation of these alerts is duplicated at the CAM-HMI.

SYNAPSIS-CONNING NX

Operator Manual

Edition: Jan 2019 2-19 4451.DOC000002

Alerts are divided in different priorities: • Emergency alarm

Highest priority of an alert. Alarms which indicate immediate danger to human life or to the ship and its machinery exists and that immediate action must be taken.

• ALARM

Alarms need immediate attention of the operator. The most recent alarm is always displayed in the top line of the list.

- The alarm text is displayed in RED. - Unacknowledged alarms are flashing. - An acoustic signal is released with the alarm.

An Alarm must be acknowledged according to their category, A or B as assigned to it. Category C alerts cannot be acknowledged on the bridge.

• WARNING

Warnings are not immediately dangerous, but may become so. As long as there is no active or unacknowledged alarm, a current warning is displayed in the top line of the list.

- The warning text is displayed in yellowish ORANGE. - Unacknowledged warnings are flashing. - An acoustic signal is released with the warning.

A Warning must be acknowledged according to category A or B. Category C alerts cannot be acknowledged on the bridge.

• CAUTION

An active caution message is always placed after the alarm and/or warning entries in the displayed list. Caution messages are displayed in GRAY with a yellow symbol. An active current caution message is also displayed as GRAY text on the alarm displays of the applications Radar and ECDIS.

Table 2-11 Buttons and Field Function within Sensor Page

Button / Field Function

In automatic sensor selection (Auto) the CCRS uses 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.

In manual sensor selection mode (Manual) the user selects the source sensor for the system level data. As long as the sensor delivers data, this data is 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.

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.

With placing the cursor over a sensor field a TOOLTIP pop-up window appears after some seconds showing detailed integrity monitoring information for the sensor.

The input is only possible if there is no sensor available for the corresponding data. The values can be entered in the specific input fields and are set in the system by pressing Manual when entry is completed.


4451.DOC000002 2-30 Edition: Jan 2019

Table 2-12 describes the meaning of the colored quality indicator. In the Synapsis Service Tool in the menu item Ship Parameter, the General Presentation Standard shows the predefined edition of the IEC 62288 for the used system.

2.5.9 Voyage Plan Data (Voyage)

This page is optional and ship specific. If the track control system does not deliver track information this page is used as fall-back information. The calculation for following voyage plan data is not possible in the fall-back situation: The TIME TO GO for the NEXT-waypoint xx . ETA (UTC) TRACK END ETA (UTC) SELECTED WP

The Fall-back information is only used as navigational information. In this situation the track control system is disturbed.

The track control system left track control mode.

Pressing the STOP CALC button stops the fall-back calculation of voyage plan data. The voyage plan data fades out on all Conning NX instances in the system.

2.7 Remote-Diagnostics (Option)

The remote-diagnostics allows an encrypted point-to-point connection between the ship and Raytheon Anschütz Kiel via WLAN, SATCOM or Landline (harbor). The dialog takes place via a remote desktop program (ISL). In this case, the service engineer in Kiel is authorized to access the Synapsis System and the applications (Ship). The remote-diagnostics system is used to readout following system information:

• Synapsis log data from a selected MFC via Synapsis Service Tool • Application problems

The remote-diagnostics is only used at the harbor or at anchor. Never use the remote-diagnostics when the bridge is required for navigational purpose.

Following connections are necessary:

• Telephone contact during the task • Constant internet contact during the task

In the active remote-diagnostics mode, a forced disconnection of the connection is carried out after 4 hours of inactivity. If the active remote-diagnostics mode continued, the key switch has to be switched OFF and ON.
