適用范圍：This International Standard specifies the minimum operational and performance requirementsand methods of testing for ECS. ECSs are designed or adapted for use as navigationinformation systems on vessels not required to comply with Chapter V of the InternationalConvention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS).Different types of vessels, for example, a non-SOLAS passenger vessel, a small fishingvessel or a recreational vessel, which operate in different environments, need to be equippedwith navigational systems providing functionality to meet their needs. If the full functionality ofECDIS according to IEC 61174 is considered to be unnecessary, ECS may be suitable for anavigation information system for these vessels. Governments may consider requiring thecarriage of ECS for these vessels under local arrangements.In order to provide a standard that can be used to apply different levels of navigationalfunctionality, three classes of ECS are defined.? Class “A” ECS are designed or adapted for use as a primary navigation informationsystem.? Class “B” ECS are designed or adapted for use as a navigation information system whereless navigational functionality is required than Class “A”.? Class “C” ECS are designed or adapted for use as a navigation information system withminimal functionality intended to plot and monitor a vessel’s position.Within this International Standard, the beginning of each paragraph indicates the applicabilityto ECS Class(es). Paragraphs marked “(A B C)” apply to all Classes; paragraphs marked “(AB)” or “(B C)” apply only to those specific combinations of Classes; and paragraphs marked“(A)”, “(B)” or “(C)” apply only to those individual Classes.For a Class “A” and Class “B” ECS, adequate back-up arrangements may be required toensure safe navigation in the event of an ECS failure. For a Class “A” ECS, an additionalClass “A” ECS may be used as the back-up. Alternatively, Class “B” ECS are intended tomeet the minimum requirements for adequate back-up arrangements for Class “A” ECS. For aClass “B” ECS, an additional Class “B” ECS may be used as the back-up. Class “C” ECS arenot intended to meet the minimum requirements for adequate back-up arrangements for Class“A” or Class “B” ECS.Guidance for testing ECS is given in Annex A.
