ACR Electronics Nauticast 2607 - Manual (Page 42)

Installation Manual 38 Y1-03-0204 Rev.K
Result:
The NAUTICAST automatically calculates A+ B and C + D and shows length and beam of the
vessel.
Note: When receiving position data from large vessels, it should be considered that the
position refers to the antenna mounting point upon the vessel. To ensure accurate navigation,
the antenna reference points (see Other Vessels Details) should be taken into consideration
when determining the vessels position.
Also, the electronic chart display in use should be programmed to consider the antenna
reference points. Traffic images are represented in true distances only when all displayed
targets, including own vessel, are working with AIS position information, which considers
Antenna reference points.
Enter Ref.Point int (location of the internal GPS antenna) in the same way.
Input:
A: 220 - then press Enter
B: 0 - then press Enter
C: 10
– then press Enter
D: 33
– then press Enter
Your external and internal reference points must match the entered ship dimensions. For
incorrect dimension it reports:
>>> ext/int ship len/beam don't match
After correct settings of the reference points and dimensions like length and beam you can
press M5 - [Save]. to save your settings:
>>> DATA OK. PRESS M5 TO SAVE DATA <<<
4.4 Service and User Passwords:
The Transponder system is equipped with two levels of Password Protection, User and
Service Password.
1) The User Password, which is the lower security level, allows access to all menus except
Menu 6: Service Configuration which is protected by the Service Password.
2) The Service Password is required in order to enter the Service Configuration Menu. This is
a higher security level than can not be accessed with the User Password and therefore
ensures that the Service Configuration is protected, and limited to authorized service
personnel.
The master of the vessel has to ensure that only authorized persons are allowed to make
changes to the Service Configuration and ensures that the newly reset password is stored
very carefully, as it can not be reset from the factory default a second time.
WARNING: It is very important that the Service password not be lost. Keeping the
password in a second location may be wise. Record your custom service and user
passwords in the table provided in the appendix of your User Manual. Memorizing the
password is best. If you lose this password, you cannot make any further
configuration changes: Access to the AIS is blocked. Another master key is not
available and the unit would have to be returned to the ACR Service cent. This service
is not free of charge.
Once you have entered the system, please change the default password to your own
passwords, for both levels of access. Use different passwords for the different security
levels.
