6 Display of other Navigational Information

  6.1 Radar information or other navigational information may be added to the ECDIS display. However, it should not degrade the SENC information, and should be clearly distinguishable from the SENC information.

  6.2 ECDIS and added navigational information should use a common reference system. If this is not the case, an indication should be provided.

  6.3 Radar

  6.3.1 Transferred radar information may contain both the radar image and ARPA information.

  6.3.2 If the radar image is added to the ECDIS display, the chart and the radar image should match in scale and in orientation.

  6.3.3 The radar image and the position from the position sensor should both be adjusted automatically for antenna offset from the conning position.

  6.3.4 It should be possible to adjust the displayed position of the ship manually so that the radar image matches the SENC display.

  6.3.5 It should be possible to remove the radar information by single operator action.
