Easy operation
Our Integrated Bridge System is designed for easy operation to allow maximum time for observation and decision making. This is particularly apparent in our ARPA/radar and ECDIS systems. These systems have the same intuitive user interface, the same panel layout and menu system. Route plans, mariner's notes, charts, radar video and vector presentation are shared between the systems.
"Turn-key" integrated bridge system
Our integrated bridge system is supplied as a "turn-key" delivery. To simplify installation onboard, all systems are pre-installed in their consoles on delivery. Cable connections are wired to easily accessible terminals for quick cable connection onboard. Compliance with relevant rules and regulation are checked before the equipment is installed, thereby avoiding possible expensive redesign on site.
