- Displays up to 100 Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA) tracked targets.
- Displays targets and information from AIS – Automatic Identification System.
- EBL / VRM gives the correct range and bearing from own ship.
- Remote control of K-Bridge autopilot providing track-keeping functions.
- Echo sounder monitoring and recording of chart depth information.
- Voyage recording and replay.
- Navtex interface.
- IMO defined functions.
- Type approved.
CHART TYPES
The ECDIS system uses official vector charts and accepts CM-93 vector charts from C-Map, and is compatible with ARCS from The United Kingdom Hydrographic Office. This means a world-wide coverage of electronic charts. K-Bridge is a fully compliant and easy to operate ECDIS system for new builds and retrofit installations.
