BHS Type Approval for New UAIS Control Unit
01 Mar 2003
STN Atlas Marine Electronics' new Debeg 3401 UAIS Display and Control Unit (DCU), designed for operation and primary display of data in support of its European Wheelmark certified 3400 UAIS, has been type approved by the German Maritime & Hydrographic Agency (BSH).
The unit provides detailed presentations of targets and own ship symbol in the form of situation displays, with triangular symbols indicating headings of targets. Target data, such as position, course, speed, heading, name and destination relative to own-ship's range and bearing can also be displayed. There are additional facilities for relaying safety related messages in addition to those for accepting external interrogation via satcom.
Other features include interface ports for slave displays and pilot own-equipment for access of data.
The DCU thus complements the Debeg 3400 UAIS. More than 900 systems have been sold worldwide for both newbuilding and retrofit applications.
