1.2 System Configuration
The ECDIS EC1000C Workstation, comprised of the components shown in the illustration below, displays
electronic seacharts and operates as the user interface for the system.
The ECDIS processor is connected to various sensors, and performs navigation calculations and route monitoring.
Connections to interfaces are typically made with a LAN (Local Area Network) Adapter.
The ECDIS processor can be used for both route planning and route monitoring. If required, there can be additional
identical ECDIS EC1000C Workstation(s) connected to the same LAN to share the tasks of the ECDIS. If the
system incorporates more than one ECDIS EC1000C Workstation, one or more workstation(s) can be used as a user
interface (with “full” usage rights) and one or more workstation(s) may be used as planning stations (usage rights as
“planning”).
If the system has two workstations connected together as multiple workstations, the system keeps data on the
workstations harmonised and also tracks selections and settings made on any workstation.
Typically there can be the following kinds of configurations of workstations:
• Mode as Single, only one workstation is used in the system.
• Mode as Multiple, two workstations are used in the system where usage rights and sensor source of
workstations can be changed by the user.
For more information, see Chapter 18 “Common Reference System”.
