19 List of the Alarm Signal Outputs
The alarm signals mentioned in the following are provided by the radar system in the form of electrical
contacts. Whether the signals are displayed in a given case, and if so in what form, depends on the instal-
lation and on the type of alarm system involved. Therefore, no statement about this can be made here.
Radar Alarm
Each radar indicator emits this signal if one of the following alarms is generated:
- GYRO FAULT,
- INTERSWITCH OFFLINE,
- MAGNETRON FAULT,
- NO ANTENNA AZIMUTH,
- NO HEADMARKER,
- NO RADAR VIDEO,
- NO TRIGGER,
- PLANNING SYSTEM OFFLINE,
- POSITION TIMEOUT,
- SPEED TIMEOUT,
- TRANSCEIVER OFFLINE.
If an appropriate setting has been made at service level, the radar alarm is also emitted if the SYSTEM
FAULT alarm appears.
The radar alarm is also emitted if switch-off of the display electronics unit occurs or if the supply voltage
to the display electronics unit has failed.
ARPA Alarm
Every radar indicator emits this signal if one of the following alarms is generated
1)
:
- DANGEROUS TGT,
- LOST TGT,
- TARGET IN AZ,
- TARGET IN GZ.
Chart Alarm
Every radar indicator emits this signal if one of the following alarms is generated (by the CHARTPILOT):
- ECDIS APPROACHING WAYPOINT,
- ECDIS COURSE LIMIT,
- ECDIS DEPTH ALARM,
- ECDIS OBJECT OF INTEREST
2)
,
- ECDIS SAFETY CONTOUR
2),
- ECDIS TRACK LIMIT,
- ECDIS USER CHART OBJECT.
Dead Man Alarm Trigger
Every radar indicator emits this signal when any operating action is performed on its keyboard. Therefore,
if the installation has been performed appropriately, there is no need to operate a special watch-alarm
key when a radar indicator is being operated.
1)
For each of the alarm messages mentioned, it is possible to specify at service level that the ARPA alarm should not be triggered.
2)
This alarm leads to the emission of the Chart Alarm signal if, and only if, the To Alarm Panel function is in the switched-on state on the
CHARTPILOT (in the Alarm Settings menu in Chart Mode).
