5.5.1 CPA / TCPA Alarm
In the system, targets are categorized into two types: tracked / activate AIS targets
and dangerous targets.
The grade of danger can easily be recognized on the display at a glance. So the
officer can easily decide which target he should pay attention to.
It is not possible to switch off the tracked target visual alarm, unless tracking is
ceased, or the alarm condition no longer applies.
The types of target and alarm are shown below.
CPA Limit and TCPA Limit: The Setting Values
Since these alarms may include some errors
depending on the target tracking conditions, the
navigation officer himself should make the final
decision for ship operations such as collision
avoidance.
Making the final navigation decision based only on the
alarm may cause accidents such as collisions.
