1. HOW THE BRIDGE ALARM SYSTEM OPERATES
1-3
The OOW stops the audible alarm and acknowledges the alarm. Then, audible and
visual alarms at the Bridge Panel, Cabin Panels and Timer Reset Panel are removed
and the watch safety timer is reset.
The interpretation of the prewarning 15-second visual alarm (flashing) and the15-sec-
ond visual (flashing) and audible (buzzer) alarms at the 1st stage depends on the
mode type selected. The BR-1000 can be configured for IMO (International Maritime
Organization) or DNV (Det Norkse Veritas, Norwegian classification society).
IMO: Alarm given for 30 seconds AFTER
selected time interval elapses.
DNV: Alarm given for 30 seconds BEFORE
selected time interval elapses.
The required mode can be selected from the Service menu.
The sequence of the watch safety alarm in each mode is shown in the figures that fol-
low.
