Automatic Identification System
Vessel (default) screen, the Left or Right Arrow Keys will allow the user to
toggle between the Ship Name display and the MMSI screen. (The MMSI
screen will always be displayed for a vessel if the ship name is not known.
FNC Function Key
Used as the initial key in a key sequence to access the various secondary
functions of the interface.
CAN Cancel Key
Used to cancel any edit made in a data entry field and revert data back to
preexisting data.
MSG Message Key
Used to access the text messaging window, in order to send Safety Text
Messages.
ESC Escape Key
Will bring user up one level on the menu system.
The blue text above some identify the secondary definitions for each button. These
secondary definitions are activated by pressing of the FNC button in a key se-
quence.
SETUP Enters the system configuration menu system.
HOME Returns cursor to start position in a data entry field
END Returns cursor to end position in a data entry field
ALL Will clear all contents of a data entry field when preceded by the FNC key.
The alphanumeric keypad is used to enter both numbers and letters. When alphanu-
meric text entry is expected, the nonnumeric options are presented before the nu-
meric value of the key. For example, the number “2” key provides for entry of “A”,
“B”, and “C”. When the cursor is positioned in a display field location that expects an
alphanumeric character, the first press of the “2” key will result in the display of an
“A”. Another press (in a fairly short time) will cause a “B” to be displayed. The next
press shows a “C”, while the forth press shows a “2”.
Repeated key presses will result in cycling through the character options repeatedly.
When the operator stops pressing keys for longer than the preset timeout, the last
value is retained and the cursor moves to the next location in the field. Pressing a
different key forces acceptance of the last character for the field and moves the cur-
sor along.
