1.ECDIS & PASSAGE PLAN

1.1 PASSAGE PLAN USER CHAR

Downbelow From :Ship Inspection Report (SIRE) Programme,Vessel Inspection Questionnaires for Oil Tankers and Chemical Tankers (VIQ)船舶检查提纲油轮、化学品船部分

Was a comprehensive passage plan available for theprevious voyage and did it cover the full voyage from berth to berth?

前一航次是否编制有全面的航次计划，该计划是否覆盖从泊位到泊位的整个航程？

Prior to proceeding to sea，the master shall ensurethat the intended voyage has been planned using appropriate charts andpublications for the area concerned. (SOLAS V/34 and IMO Res. A.893)

开航前，船长应运用预定航线上所涉及的合适的海图和图书资料，保证计划好预定航线。(资料来源：SOLAS V/34 and IMO Res. A.893)

Notes： The passage plan should becompleted by an officer and checked by the master.

提示：航次计划应由一位驾驶员来完成，再由船长来核查。

Use of the UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency Marine Guidance Note 166(Guidelines for Voyage Planning) and the Nautical Institute publication BridgeTeam Management reinforce the recommendations contained in the ICS BridgeProcedures Guide.

英海事和海岸警备局出版的《海运指导说明166》（航线设计指南）和航海协会出版物《驾驶台团队管理》的使用补充了国际航运协会出版的《驾驶台程序指南》所含的建议。

Passage planning should be carried out on the chart，although there is a place for the use of a conning notebook，or some information gathered elsewhere. Overcrowding of information in the working areas of the chart can beavoided by recording the information away from the track and drawing attentionto it by a line or reference letter.

即使在使用指挥笔记本的地方，或某些信息已收集在别处，仍应将航次计划标绘在海图上。为防止海图上工作区的信息过度拥挤，可以将有关信息记录在远离航迹之处，然后画上一条线或写上参考字母以示注意。

该项需要注意的是海图更换时的重叠，需要引起重视。航行计划的制定必须连贯，无论如何不能出现断点。需要特别关注的是：平行线问题，航行定线制，以及相应的船舶定位要求。需要密切关注禁航区的标识

The following should be marked on the chart，where it enhances safe navigation：

以下所述如可提高安全航行，应标注于海图上：

� Parallelindexing (not from floating objects unless they have been first checked forposition)；

平行方位线（除非已事先核对过其位置的准确性，切忌使用浮动物标）；

� Chartchanges； 海图的更换；

� Methodsand frequency of position fixing； 定位的方法和时间间隔；

� Prominentnavigation and radar marks； 显著的航行和雷达物标；

� No-goareas (the excessive marking of no-go areas should be discouraged ｨC see below)； 禁止进入区（不鼓励过多地标绘“禁止进入区”，见以下）

� Landfalltargets and lights； 初见陆标和灯光；

� Clearinglines and bearings； 避险线和避险方位；

� Transits，headingmarks and leading lines； 叠标、导标和导航线；

� Significanttides or current； 重要的潮流和海流；

� Safespeed and necessary speed alterations； 安全航速和必要的航速变化；

� Changesin machinery status； 机器状态的更换；

� Minimumunder keel clearance； 最小富余水深；

� Positionswhere the echo sounder should be activated； 需要开启测深仪的位置；

� Crossingand high density traffic areas； 穿越和高通航密度区；

� Safe distance off； 应保持的安全距离；

� Anchorclearance； 锚位余量；

� Contingencyplans； 紧急计划；

� Abortpositions； 中断位置；

� VTSand reporting points，etc.，VTS及其报告点，等等。

Charted passage planning information should not obscure printed details，nor should the information on charts be obliterated by the use ofhighlight or felt-tip pen，red pencil，etc.

所标绘的航线设计相关资料不应妨碍阅读海图上刊印的详细资料，也不用使用标示记号或标签笔、红色铅笔等将海图上的信息盖没。

No-go areas should be highlighted，but should be reservedfor those areas where the attention of the navigator needs to be drawn to adanger such as shallow water or a wreck close to the course line.

“禁止进入区”用标示记号标出，但应保留航海人员需注意的危险物区域，该危险物例如航线附近的浅水区和沉船。

Extensive use of no-go area s should be discouraged. No-go areas vary with change of draft andtide and will therefore also vary with the time of passage. They should not therefore be permanentlymarked.

不鼓励过多地标绘“禁止进入区”。“禁止进入区”会随着吃水、潮汐的变化而改变；也会随着通过的时间变化而改变。因此，不应将“禁止进入区”永久地标绘于海图上。

All courses previous to the last voyage should have been erased. Courselines must not be marked in ink，although it is acceptable to plot alter course positions in ink where these are frequently in use.

应擦除上一航次之前的所有航线。虽然可以接收将经常使用的转向点用墨水笔标在海图上，但不应用墨水笔标绘航线。

  1.8:电子海图VIQ requirement

  In addition to the paper publications necessary for a safe passage，the following issues should be taken into consideration for electronic passage planning：

  除安全航行所需的纸质图书以外，电子航路的设计还应考虑以下各点：

  � Thevessel's controlling operational parameters (maximum draft，air draft，turning data，minimumunder keel clearance required，'lookahead' distance etc.) should be entered；

  应输入船舶的控制操作参数（最大吃水、净空高度、旋回数据、所需最小富余水深、“预设提前距离”等等）

  Planning航路设计

  � Marking/highlightingof electronic charts can be carried out in a similar way to paper charts toidentify radar conspicuous targets，no-go areas，parallelindex lines (essential for the monitoring stage)，transit marks，clearingbearings，etc.；

  电子海图上的标记/重要标识应尽量与纸质海图相似，以识别显著的雷达物标、禁止进入区、平行方位线（对监控阶段是必要的）、叠标、避险方位线等等；

  � Itis prudent for a simulated passage to be run prior to the vessel's departure toensure that the route does not enter anyalarm preset danger areas that may have been overlooked；

  应当谨慎的是，在开航前应运行模拟航线，以确保该航路内没有输入任何没注意到报警预设危险区；

  � Estimatedpositions should be marked on the chart for each watch，inadvance.

  每班估计船位应预先标在海图上。

  Execution and Monitoring

  执行和监控：

  Navigating officers must not become over-reliant on ECDIS. Frequent checks should be made of the ECDISposition fixing system (normally GPS) by the use of other means. Such checks should include：

  负责航行的驾驶员不应过度依赖电子海图显示信息系统。应时常通过其他定位手段对电子海图显示信息系统的定位系统（通常是GPS）进行核对。这种核对应包括：

  � Parallelindexing and use of clearing bearings；

  平行方位尺和使用避险线；

  � Useof radar to check the accuracy of the charted position by comparing thelocation of the radar target against the charted symbol；

  使用雷达对雷达物标和其海图图式的位置进行比较，来核查图注位置的精确度；

  � Visualcross bearings；

  目测交叉方位；

  � Comparisonof the signal to noise ratio of the GPS system in use.

  使用中的GPS系统信号和信噪比的比较；

Daily, Monthly And Weekly Tests Of GMDSS Equipment On Board Ships

https://www.marineinsight.com/marine-navigation/gmdss-equipment-tests-on-ships/

The development of GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress And Safety System) for the shipping industry hascome a long way. The GMDSS system was established with an objective to improve distress and safetyradio communications and procedures at sea.

The greatest benefit of the GMDSS equipment is that it vastly reduces the chances of shipsdisappearing without a trace, and enables search and rescue (SAR) operations to be launched withoutdelay and directed to the exact site of a maritime disaster.

Gone are the days when ships were required to have dedicated radio officers to operate radio equipment.With the implementation of GMDSS, every deck officer with a General Operator Certificate (GOC) andthe license is entitled to use the GMDSS equipment and make radio communications when needed.

For the GMDSS equipment to function properly and effectively in the event of an emergency, it is criticalthat mariners understand its purpose and do the required maintenance on board the vessel to keep it in aworking condition and make the best use of GMDSS equipment.

The daily, weekly and monthly tests of all the GMDSS equipment should be done by every navigatingofficer responsible for it without any compromise. We must not forget that it is our only best friend in adistress situation at sea.

Ships at sea must be capable of performing the nine functional GMDSS requirements. They are:

\1. Ship-to-shore distress alerting2. Shore-to-ship distress alerting3. Ship-to-ship distress alerting4. SAR coordination

\5. On-scene communications

\6. Transmission and receipt of emergency locating signals\7. Transmission and receipt of MSI\8. General radio communications\9. Bridge-to-bridge communications

This can be ensured by testing the GMDSS equipment at regular intervals.

The GMDSS equipment and systems include the VHF DSC/RT, MF/HF DSC/RT, INMARSAT, SART,EPIRB, NAVTEX, and SURVIVAL CRAFT TWO WAY VHF.

Daily Tests On GMDSS Equipment

The proper functioning of the Digital Selective Calling (DSC) facilities shall be tested at least once eachday, without radiation of signals, by the use of the equipment’s Internal test facility. The daily test checksthe internal connection, transmitting output power and the display. The process can differ from equipmentto equipment based on the make.

OK READ MOREThe daily test of the FURUNO model of the VHF equipment can be executed as below:

Daily, Monthly And Weekly Tests Of VHF GMDSS Equipment On Board Ships

\1. At the standby display press, the SHIFT key followed by the TEST key. The “TEST IN PROGRESS”pop up window appears momentarily and distress alarm both visual and audible occurs.

The display shows the TEST screen. If everything is okay with the set and is functioning properly, theresults show OK as below. However, in some situation or if it’s a faulty equipment, ‘NG’ may be displayed.In this case the daily test should be repeated a couple of times. If the problem persists, it should beimmediately brought to the notice of a shore based service engineer.

\2. Press the CANCEL key to stop the alarm. To stop the daily test, press the CANCEL key again.

Daily test also needs to be performed on the MF/HF equipment to ensure it will function properly in theevent of distress.

\1. Press the [3/TEST] key to start the test. Select the Daily Test by rotating the knob and push to enter.After several seconds the display shows the test results; OK for normal operation. The audio alarm alsosounds after the test results are displayed and the alarm lamp flashes several times.

We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it.

OK READ MORE

\2. The CANCEL key should be pressed to quit the test and return to the normal screen.

Batteries providing a reserve source of energy should also be checked daily. Mainly the battery ON-LOAD and OFF-LOAD voltages are checked by a voltmeter connected to the charger.

OFF-LOAD: when no equipment is connected, the battery should read 24 V or slightly more.

ON LOAD: switch off the AC power and note the voltage of the battery. Press the PTT on MF/HFtransceiver on a non-distress and idle R/T frequency. Voltage will fall depending upon the load. If thevoltage falls more than 10% it indicates that the battery is either weak or not charged fully. In this case,batteries should be recharged.

It is also important to check that all printers are in a working condition and there is sufficient supply ofpaper.

Weekly Tests On GMDSS Equipment

It is necessary to test the proper operation of the DSC facilities at least once a week by means of a testcall over one of the six distress and safety frequencies, when within the communication range of a coaststation fitted with a DSC equipment. A test call to the coast station can be sent in the following ways:

MF/HF DSC:

\1. Press the [2/DSC] key at the DSC standby screen and then push the [ENTER] knob to open the CALLTYPE menu.

\2. Rotate the [ENTER] knob to choose TEST CALL and then push the [ENTER] knob. Push the [ENTER]knob again to open the COAST ID menu.

\3. Using the numeric keys, key in the ID of the coast station ID (seven digits) where you want to send thecall depending upon the area you are navigating in and then push the [ENTER] knob. The coast stationID can be found from the Admiralty List of Radio Signals Volume 1- Maritime Radio Stations.

\4. Now push the [ENTER] knob to open the DSC FREQ menu. (Note that here the PRIORITY isautomatically selected to SAFETY.)

\5. Rotate the [ENTER] knob to choose an appropriate frequency and then push the [ENTER] knob.

\6. Now press the [CALL] key to send the TEST call to the respective shore station.

After the test call has been sent successfully the acknowledgement is received from the shore station.The audio alarm sounds on receiving the acknowledgement.

Many times it often happens that the deck officer does not receive any acknowledgement from the shorestation. In such cases, we often take it for granted that the shore station is not sending theacknowledgement. However, in reality, this might not be the case.

The problem could be with our equipment too. To make sure that the MF/HF equipment is in order, it isbetter we try sending the test call using other frequencies and to other stations. Even if then we fail toreceive any acknowledgement, a test call can be sent to a passing ship if possible. Instead of keying thecoast ID, key in the MMSI of the passing ship. It is better to call the ship and confirm if they have receivedthe test call. We can also request them to send us a test call to ensure that the equipment receivingfacility is functioning properly.

It is also recommended that a station to station test takes place using VHF DSC.

\1. Press the CALL key. This will open the compose message screen where the call type can be selected.Rotate the channel knob to select TEST call.

\2. Enter the Station ID, in this case, the MMSI of your own ship and then press the CALL key for it to betransmitted.

The audio and visual alarm is generated and the test call is received on the other VHF station. Presscancel to terminate the test call.

Monthly Tests On GMDSS EquipmentEPIRB:

The Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon or EPIRB should be examined by carrying out a self-test function without using the satellite system. No emergency signal is transmitted during the self-test.During self-test the battery voltage, output power and frequency are checked. The EPIRB should also bechecked for any physical damage. The expiry date of the battery unit and that of the hydrostatic releaseunit should be checked. Also, check that the safety clip is properly attached and in place.

To perform the self-test on the JOTRON EPIRB:

\1. The EPIRB should be removed from the bracket first.

We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it.

\2. The spring loaded switch on top of the EPIRB is then lifted to the TEST position.

A successful test will consist of a series of blinks on the LED test-indicator, followed by a continuous lightand a strobe flash after approximately 15 seconds. The last green led indicates a successful test.

\3. After the successful completion of the test, the switch is released and the EPIRB is put back into thebracket.

SART:

The Search and Rescue Transponder or SART is also equipped with a self-test mechanism to test theoperational function of the beacon. The SART is tested using the ship’s X band radar. The test shouldpreferably be done in open seas to avoid interference on the radar display.

\1. Remove the SART from the mounting bracket.\2. The SART should be held by one person in view of the radar scanner. This could be done from the

bridge wings. The SART should then be put on the TEST mode by rotating it to the left to theTESTPREVUE position for a brief period.

Visual lights operate and bleeps are heard indicating that the SART has been triggered.

\3. Simultaneously a person should observe the radar display for the correct pattern. At least 11concentric circles appear on the radar display if kept on a 12 M range scale. The distance betweenthe two rings is approximately 0.64 NM.

\4. The SART should also be visually inspected for any signs of physical damage. The battery expirydate should also be noted. The safety clip should be in place.

Survival Craft Two Way Portable VHF Equipment

Each survival craft two way VHF equipment should be tested at least once a month to ensure properoperation in case of a distress situation. It should be tested on a frequency other than VHF channel 16(156.8 MHz). The expiry date of the battery needs to be checked and changed when required.

\1. Press the power key to switch on or off.

\2. To select a different channel, press the CH key and use the arrow keys to select the required channel.The selected channel is indicated with channel number and frequency on the screen.

\3. Press the PTT (Push to talk) to communicate with another radio-telephone to test receive and transmitfunctions. One person can stand near the VHF receiver to receive a test call from the handheld radio.

The symbol ‘TX’ is shown when the PTT is pressed and transmission takes place. The TX indicatorindicates that a carrier is produced at the antenna output.

When it receives a signal the symbol ‘RX’ is indicated on the display.

NAVTEX :

The Navtex is an equally important GMDSS equipment and is the source of maritime safety information. Itis also equipped with a test function that can test the battery, keyboard, LCD, ROM and RAM. It is a goodpractice to test the Navtex and detect an error if any. The Furuno model of Navtex can be tested asfollows:

\1. Press the MENU/ESC key to open the main menu.

\2. Now use the navigating arrows to choose SERVICE and then hit ENT. The SERVICE submenucontains the TEST option. Use the down arrow key to select TEST and press ENT key. Choose YES andpress the ENT key again. The TEST will start and the results will be displayed on the screen after a fewseconds.

If the test is successful the results show OK otherwise it will show NG meaning – No Good.

It also tests each key for proper functioning.

The Rx test screen shows as follows:

The test results can be printed and filed in the GMDSS log book.

INMARSAT:

The INMARSAT is also equipped with a diagnostic test which checks it for proper operation. The steps toperform a Diagnostic Test on FURUNO INMARSAT are given below;

\1. On the keyboard press the F7 key to display the ‘OPTIONS’ menu.\2. Use the down arrow to open the TEST menu and then select the DIAGNOSTIC TEST. Select YES

to begin the test.

On completion of the test, the results are shown on the screen as below. The ESC key is used to returnto the main menu.

A PV test or Performance Verification test can be performed every month. This test consists of receivinga test message from an LES (Local Earth Station), transmitting a message to an LES and a distress alerttest. The PV TEST can be opened from the TEST menu under OPTIONS as mentioned above.

The status shows ‘TESTING’ when the test is in process.

The status changes to IDLE on completion of the PV Test.

The test results can be seen from the option ‘PV Test Result’ under the TEST menu. The test results canbe printed and logged. BBER denotes the bulletin board error rate. Pass appears for no error. “PASS”appears for satisfactory completion of the test.

GMDSS Battery:

The battery connections and compartment should also be checked. The level of the electrolyte and thespecific gravity of each cell should be checked and recorded. Sulfation can reduce the specific gravitythereby reducing the battery capacity. Maintenance free batteries on board, however, do not require anysuch checks.

It is recommended every month to visually check all antennas for the security of mounting and visible damage.

4.5:COMPASS ERR BOOK

VIQ 4.12 Are regular gyro and magnetic compass errors being takenand are they being recorded?

是否定时测量和记录磁罗经和陀螺罗经误差？

根据公司的管理要求进行测试并记录。

Notes： The gyro error and magneticcompass deviation should be ascertained every watch. Where weather conditions or traffic densitymakes it impractical，this fact should be noted inthe Deck Log Book or Compass Error Book.

提示：磁罗经和陀螺罗经误差应每班测定一次。假如天气情况或船舶交通密度使之不可行，应将其原因记入航海日志或罗经差簿。

The error of the gyro should be determined by external observations -celestial bearings，transits etc. and the gyro andmagnetic compass headings then compared to determine the magnetic compasserror.

陀螺罗经误差应通过外部观测来确定。（即：天体方位、移线船位等，和磁罗经和陀螺罗经船首向，然后进行比较以确定磁罗经误差。）

Where a gyro repeater is used to take a bearing an accurate comparisonbetween the repeater and the master gyro should be made.

若使用陀螺罗经的分罗经来测量方位，应比较分罗经和主罗经的精度。

VIQ 4.12:Do the errors being recorded in the compass error bookbroadly agree with the deviation card?

罗经差簿上记载的罗经差是否与自差卡大体一致？

Notes： An observation should be madeif the magnetic compass error differs by more than three degrees from thedeviation card curve.

提示：如果磁罗经误差与自差曲线相差3度以上，应予以观测校正。

A comparison between the magnetic and gyro headings should be made ateach course alteration and recorded in the Deck Log Book.

磁罗经和陀螺罗经船首向应在每次转向点后比较一次，并记入航海日志。

Some administrations require compass errors to be recorded in the DeckLog Book rather than a separate Compass Error Book. 某些主管机关要求罗经差记入航海日志，而不是单独的罗经差簿。

4.6:Echou sounder record

VIQ 4.18 : Is the echo sounder recorder marked with a reference dateand time on each occasion it is switched on? 每次使用测深仪时，是否在其记录纸上标注参照日期和时间？

Note： The echo sounder recordershould be switched on prior to each approach to shallow water and port entryand prior to departure and remain in operation while in shallow waters. Thedate and time of switching on should be marked on the recorder chart. Inaddition，the date and time of passingsignificant land or seamarks should be marked on the recorder. Many modernelectronic echo sounders have an inbuilt 24-hour memory which can be recalled.If an electronic memory is not provided，the echo sounder shouldbe provided with a printed record. Where an electronic display history isprovided to record trending and a VDR to record times，a “Y” response should be made，together with a shortexplanation in Other comments.提示：每次接近浅水区域和进入港口前应开启测深仪，并在通过浅水区域的期间中保持运行。开启测深仪的日期和时间应标注在记录纸上。此外，通过显著陆地或海标的日期和时间也应标注在记录纸上。许多现代电子式测深仪配备内置24小时存储器，可以重现存储的数据。如果没有配置电子存储器，测深仪应具有打印式记录。如果提供电子显示数据作为记录的形式并且一个记录时间的航行数据记录仪，则是“Y”，连同一个简短的解释。
