tion data on the [Save and Sync] menu.
1.7.2 Master/Backup AMS setting
Set the master and backup AMS among the units connected to AMS. The master AMS
outputs the alert data to the external AMS. When communication with the master AMS
is lost, the backup AMS outputs the alert data to the external AMS instead of the mas-
ter AMS.
Follow the procedure below to set master and backup AMS.
1. Access the [Common Installation Setting] menu, then select [AMS] from the tab
bar.
2. Select [AMS Main/Backup Setting] on the menu bar.
3. Select the Equipment ID from the pull-down list for [AMS Main] to assign the mas-
ter AMS.
Note: The FMD-3100 cannot be assigned as master or backup AMS. Assign an
ECDIS other than the FMD-3100 as the master and backup AMS.
[Buzzer Pattern] Sets the buzzer sound pattern to output when an alert occurs.

ly.

gory A ACK]

edged.

Navigational Watch Alarm System). The unit(s) checked here are
