CHART FORMATS

Navi-Sailor 3000 allows the use and display of charts

in 7 different formats:

• raster charts: ARCS (issued by the UK Admiralty),

NDI/BSB (charts by the HO’s of USA and Canada),

NOS/GEO, Seafarer (issued by the HO of Australia);

• vector charts: ENC/S 57 (official charts issued

by the hydrographic offices in accordance with

IMO requirements), TX-97 (produced by Transas),

SENC CD-8 (pre-converted by Transas from official

ENC data).

The chart orientation allows the display of the fol-

lowing ship motion modes in any combination:

“NorthUp”/”CourseUp”/”HeadUp”; True/Relative

motion.

Operating with charts of different formats

POSITIONING

Navi-Sailor 3000 automatically provides the naviga-

tor with all the necessary information:

• current ship position and motion vector;

• reception of information from the radar/ARPA

and handling of radar targets;

• data obtained from other connected navigational

sensors;

• AIS data;

• display of the ship contour as per the set

parameters and chart scale.

Navi-Sailor 3000 can save several schedules for pro-

ceeding along one and the same route. In the network

configuration, there is a capability to exchange route

data between several interacting Navi-Sailor systems.

CHART UPDATING

There are several options of automatic chart updating

through a new user-friendly Chart Assistant soft-

ware utility:

• quarterly delivery of an updated chart collection

on a CD;

• ordering and updating charts via the satellite ship’s

connection from the Transas Group corporate site

www.transas.com by e-mail;

• Transas provides an on-line maintenance service

for charts in TX-97 and SENC CD-8 formats.

consumption to be reduced and the passage time

to be optimised:

• tides and tidal currents;

• seasonal surface currents;

• weather data.

ROUTES

Route Planning Capability

Flexible generation and editing of the passage route

(graphic and tabular). There are two types of sailing

between waypoints (WP’s) (Rhumb line, Great Circle).

• Capability to make route schedule calculations

taking into consideration:

- weather;

- surface currents;

- tidal currents;

INFORMATION ON CHART OBJECTS

Navi-Sailor 3000 allows to obtain information on

all the navigational objects plotted on a vector chart

such as lighthouses, buoys, beacons, depth contours,

areas, dangerous objects, etc.

• Transmission of route data from the master station

to the slaves (in the case of the network ECDIS

version).

• Printing out of route table.

Route Checking

The mode of checking the route for the proximity of

dangers to navigation is realized according to the set

of safety parameters defined by user. This mode pro-

vides the capability to edit the route at the same time.

Work with Multiple Routes

• Simultaneous loading of several routes for viewing

and comparing.

• Setting up of the active route.

• Fast search of the active route on the chart.

Route Autozoom Mode

While sailing along the monitored route, the Navi-

Sailor provides AutoZoom functionality which enables

the automatic increase of scale as the next waypoint

is approached.

Route Monitoring

• Constant display of own ship position and motion

vector.

• Providing of data on the ship position relative

to the plotted route.

INFORMATION FROM DATABASES

Navi-Sailor 3000 users have access to the follow-

ing Transas Databases containing information for

correct and accurate calculations which permit fuel

FUNCTIONALITIES

ELECTRONIC LOG

With the use of the Navi-Sailor 3000 system on

board, all the information is automatically recorded

in the electronic ship logbook. Subjects recorded are

navigational data, status of connected subsystems,

charts in use, alarms and operator procedures. It

should be noted that the system operator can enter

a record manually and put down weather data and

own comments at any moment.

• Monitoring of dangerous chart objects.

• Reception of information from the connected

sensors.

• Display of the ship position RMS depending on the

positioning sensor in use.

• Display of additional route elements (Arrival Circle,

XTE, Turn Radius).

PLAYBACK FUNCTION

The passage recording playback function is in com-

pliance with IEC 61174 requirement regarding 12 hour

log and is used for viewing all the details of the past

voyage by using the data automatically archived by

the system in the process of its operation.

ALARMS

Navi-Sailor 3000 system generates the following

main groups of alarms:

• anti-grounding – approach to dangers to

navigation, dangerous depth contours and small

depths, approach to special areas;

• chart areas – alerting about the approach to line

and area type objects on vector electronic charts;

• route – ship’s deviation from the route, approach

to a WP, passing of the last WP;

• target/radar – events related to targets and

The following voyage playback options are available:

• playback of the recorded own ship track and

motion parameters;

• playback of the recorded targets tracks received

from the ARPA, AIS and RIB;

• playback of the recorded radar picture received

from the RIB.

NAVI-SAILOR 3000 ECDIS ADDITIONAL OPTIONS

Integrated Information from Navtex

sensors passing target data to Navi-Sailor;

• AIS – this group of alarms is used in operation

with various types of AIS transponders (UAIS, AIS

transponder when sailing in the Great Lakes area);

• sensors – monitoring of data from the connected

sensors.

FUNCTIONALITIES

Navi-Sailor 3000 automatically reads off messages

supplied by the Navtex system, processes them;

extracts coordinates, area, transmitting station, topic

and other parameters; saves the message to the disk

and displays the message mark on the electronic

chart immediately after its reception. The automatic

alarm is activated upon the entry into the zone re-

ceived from the Navtex receiver, or at the approach

to a single message mark.

Radar Picture Overlaying

Navi-Sailor 3000 can incorporate the Transas radar

processor board, which receives a signal from the ra-

dar, subjects the received signal to digital processing

The SPOS has a capability to import routes from

Navi-Sailor 3000 or create optimum routes and ex-

port them to Navi-Sailor 3000.

and forms a data array for overlaying a radar picture

on the electronic chart. The use of the radar processor

board expands considerably Navi-Sailor 3000 scope

of capabilities by adding the following features:

• overlaying of the “raw” radar picture on top

of the chart;

• automatic extraction and tracking of

up to 128 targets simultaneously;

• recording of the “raw” radar picture onto

the computer hard disk.

Owing to the capability to track targets throughout

the entire radar operating range, automatic target

acquisition and tracking, the Transas radar processor

also performs ARPA functions.

Integration with SPOS

(Weather and Route Planning Tool)

A new convenient onboard SPOS weather and route

planning tool integrated with Navi-Sailor 3000 en-

ables users to receive weather forecasts supplied

by Meteo Consult via e-mail.

The SPOS permits:

• subscribscription to, reception and display

of forecasts;

• input of route and ship details;

• calculations of various route options;

• comparison of route generation results;

• saving of the best route as voyage plan and its

daily updating.

3 Steps in Order to Be Always Updated with New

Weather Forecasts:

• create a subscription order in the SPOS;

• send it via the ship’s communication station;

• Meteo Consult will process your request and email

the forecasts to you every day.

The size of a forecast for one area is about 30 Кb,

so even Inmarsat Mini-M could be used without huge

extra cost.

Integration with the AIS

AIS transponder interface is implemented in ac-

cordance with IEC 61993-2 international standard

and takes into account IALA Technical Clarifications

on Recommendation ITU-R M.1371-1 (Edition 1.3).

Interfacing of this device with the Navi-Sailor pro-

duces the following capabilities:

• to receive and display data on other targets using

the AIS (coordinates, name, MMSI, IMO number,

ship’s navigation status, ship’s type and nature

of cargo, speed, etc.);

• to receive and display additional data transmitted

by ships and coastal AIS (aids to navigation, base

stations, SAR aircraft AIS targets);

• to transmit own ship data (call sign, name, MMSI

and IMO number, type of cargo, type

and navigation status of the ship, etc.);

• to transmit safety related messages to other

objects of the AIS system.

Enhanced interface capabilities:

• Navi-Sailor 3000 ECDIS AIS interface covers all

possible AIS transponders in compliance with IEC

61993-2 Ed.1 requirements;

• possibility of full scale use of the Navi-Sailor as an

MKD in the case of interface with SAAB R4 AIS;

• possibility of interfacing with the transponder via

Pilot Plug (Pilot Plug Interface) where

the Navi-Sailor is used as the Pilot Personal Unit.
