Expected system performance What end user should do
• Alarm “4012…4016:
Position equipment error”
OR
• Kalman filter detects jump,
etc.
• Acknowledge alarms.
• Study situation.
Within 30
seconds
• Alarms “2000 Filter:
Position unreliable” and
“2006 Route: Course jump
possible.”
• Kalman Filter is switched Off
and system uses dead
reckoning for positioning.
• If you have log or dual-axis
log, then dead reckoning is
based on them and gyro.
• If you have log or dual-axis
log, then dead reckoning is
based on last plausible speed
from position sensors. This is
indicated by showing own ship
position, SOG and COG in red.
The source indication for SOG
and COG is “(LAST)”.
