OPERATIONAL LIMITS
OVERSCALING CHARTS
The accuracy of the overscaled charts is not as good as it should be for a safe navigation.
OUTPUT DATUM SELECTION FOR THE GPS
When the GPS sensor does not deliver on serial line information about the datum used for the
positioning, ECDIS900 supposes that the datum in use is WGS84. Therefore it is required to
select the datum WGS84 in the GPS sensor.
S57 LIMITED COVERAGE
S57 database coverage is still limited therefore ARCS must be used when no vector data are
available.
