Another guide set forming a part of the ECDIS Video Guides series intended to provide operators of the ECDIS systems with the information and instructions they need to perform their duties in the most effective way. This one is dealing with the Raytheon Anschutz system and its content bases on the E03.12 version of the software. A separate document included in the set is devoted to migrating to the IHO certificate for S-63 1.1 in the subject system.

Note that the other parts of the series are all available and cover the Kelvin Hughes MantaDigital, JRC JAN-701B-901B-2000, Furuno FEA 2X07, Furuno FMD 3X00, eGlobe G2, PC Maritime NavMaster, Kongsberg K-Bridge, OSI ECPINS and Maris ECDIS 900 systems widely used on board seagoing vessels. Traditionally, all video lessons contained in the pack feature remarkably clear and understandable explanations.

The set may be used for onboard training as well as for the general training of the persons willing to get themselves familiarized with the general functions and features of the popular shipboard ECDIS systems. A recommended one to be possessed on board any ship, detailing the whole installation process, data management, updates and all other important aspects.

The content of the present guide bases on the version 7.1.0.16 of the PC Maritime NavMaster electronic chart display information system and continues the series of the guide training modules. The previous releases addressed the ECDIS developed by the world known manufacturers, including JRC JAN-701B-901B-2000, Kongsberg K-Bridge, eGlobe G2, Furuno FMD 3X00 and FEA 2X07, Kelvin Hughes MantaDigital, Maris ECDIS 900 and OSI ECPINS.

The material arrangement remained same as it was in the other sets. The booklet accompanying the video training files contains the information covering all important aspects of the use and maintenance of the subject systems. The set will be great when used both onboard any ship with the PC Maritime NavMaster system installed and when used for training purposes by the people willing to get themselves duly familiarized with the arrangement and operating principles of the ECDIS or get better and deeper understanding of this particular one.

All explanations and instructions provided in the booklet and in the videos are very clear and easy to follow so it can be used by both professional navigators and students who will all appreciate the structure of the set.

An excellent video produced by Hempel - one of the world leader in the field of coating and paint production. The widest range of coatings produced by the company feature easy application and cost effectiveness. This training video was prepared in order to provide ship crew members with required instruction on proper handling of the coating process.

The instructor will guide them through all factors that normally influence the lifetime of the shipboard protective coating systems intended to prevent the hull from corrosion. The good condition of the coating will ensure it effective work and eventually contribute in the overall effectiveness of ship operation. Noting that the time the crew may spend for the maintenance in port is continuously reduced due to the growing intensiveness of activities, it is becoming more and more important to increase their quality.

Any coating system will start deteriorating sooner or later and that is why a good maintenance system shall be established on board every ship. The crew members shall not only understand the importance of the proper and timely maintenance but also have a good knowledge of what, how and when shall be done to keep the vessel duly maintained.

Another video training resource addressing another ECDIS system. While the previous parts of the program were dealing with the Furuno FMD 3X00 and FEA 2X07, eGlobe G2, Maris ECDIS 900, JRC JAN-701B-901B-2000, Kelvin Hughes MantaDigital and Kongsberg K-Bridge, the present one will concentrate on the features and handling of the OSI ECPINS.

Unlike the other parts, however, this training set does not include pdf files and the compilers preferred to use the video format of presenting the materials. There are ten video lessons making the set and they cover the finding permit number, deleting ENC data and permits, and installing ENC permits, AIO permits and media, AVCS base CD, update CD and DVD media, plus installing the public key for the S-63 1.1.

The information provided in the lessons is presented in a very easy to follow way making it much easier to be understood by the people with little experience of working with this or any other ECDIS system. The set may also be recommended for training purposes and is definitely a must-have one for the persons involved in using this particular system since they will easily get familiarized with technical features and get all necessary instructions for its effective use.

This set of materials continues the series commenced by numerous training videos dealing with the Furuno FEA 2X07 and FMD 300, Kongsberg K-Bridge, Kelvin Hughes MantaDigital, eGlobe G2 and JRC JAN-701B-901B-2000 systems. The set traditionally consists of two documents accompanied with several videos.

The documents included in the set provide necessary information about migrating to the IHO certificate for the S-63 1.1 in this system and give the instructions on using the AVCS, standing for the Admiralty Vector Chart Service, with the subject ECDIS.

As it was the case with all previous releases of the video guidance sets, this one is also intended to provide users with the equipment-specific technical information that will assist them in managing the equipment and software. The instructions contained in these documents and information presented in the videos will be very useful to the people using subject ECDIS since it will provide them with everything they need to use the system in an effective way.

Even if your are not the active user of this particular system we would still recommend to download this set of training resources and get familiarized with the general arrangement of ECDIS.
