  • Note: Automatic mode may not be suitable for ships required to keep BNWAS active whenever underway.
• Alarm sequence and timing:
  • Dormant period (Td): selectable between 3 and 12 minutes.
  • At end of Td → visual indication on bridge.
  • If not reset: first-stage bridge audible alarm after ~15 s.
  • If still not reset: second-stage remote audible alarm (Master/back-up) after another ~15 s (~30 s total).
  • If still not reset: third-stage remote alarm follows after approximately 2 minutes (per standard alarm sequence).
• Reset and emergency features: Reset function descriptions, initiation methods, and an emergency call facility and alarm transfer mechanism are specified.
• Performance and safety: Requirements for accuracy, security, malfunction handling, audible/visual indications and ergonomic controls.
• Design, installation and interfacing: Physical integrity, power supply, installation documentation and digital interfaces (e.g., IEC 61162) are covered.
• Testing: Detailed methods of testing and required test results for operational modes, alarms, interfaces, power and documentation.

MARITIME NAVIGATION AND
RADIOCOMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEMS –
BRIDGE NAVIGATIONAL WATCH ALARM SYSTEM (BNWAS)

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the minimum performance requirements, technical
characteristics and methods of testing, and required test results, for a bridge navigational
watch alarm system (BNWAS) as required by Chapter V of the International Convention for
the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), as amended. It takes account of the general requirements
given in IMO resolution A.694(17) and is associated with IEC 60945. When a requirement in
this International Standard is different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this standard takes
precedence.
This standard incorporates the parts of the performance standards included in IMO resolution
MSC.128(75).
NOTE 1 All text of this standard, whose wording is identical to that of IMO resolution MSC.128(75), is printed in
italics, and the resolution and associated performance standard paragraph numbers are indicated in brackets.
(128/A1) The purpose of a bridge navigational watch alarm system (BNWAS) is to monitor
bridge activity and detect operator disability which could lead to marine accidents. The system
monitors the awareness of the Officer of the Watch (OOW) and automatically alerts the Master or
another qualified OOW if for any reason the OOW becomes incapable of performing the
OOW's duties. This purpose is achieved by a series of indications and alarms to alert first the
OOW and, if he is not responding, then to alert the Master or another qualified OOW.
Additionally, the BNWAS may provide the OOW with a means of calling for immediate
assistance, if required. The BNWAS should be operational whenever the ship is underway at
sea (SOLAS V/19.2.2.3).
NOTE 2 BNWAS may not, in practice, be realised as a stand alone equipment. It may be integrated in other
equipment such as radar, ECDIS, etc.

MARITIME NAVIGATION AND
RADIOCOMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEMS –
BRIDGE NAVIGATIONAL WATCH ALARM SYSTEM (BNWAS)

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the minimum performance requirements, technical
characteristics and methods of testing, and required test results, for a bridge navigational
watch alarm system (BNWAS) as required by Chapter V of the International Convention for
the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), as amended. It takes account of the general requirements
given in IMO resolution A.694(17) and is associated with IEC 60945. When a requirement in
this International Standard is different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this standard takes
precedence.
This standard incorporates the parts of the performance standards included in IMO resolution
MSC.128(75).
NOTE 1 All text of this standard, whose wording is identical to that of IMO resolution MSC.128(75), is printed in
italics, and the resolution and associated performance standard paragraph numbers are indicated in brackets.
(128/A1) The purpose of a bridge navigational watch alarm system (BNWAS) is to monitor
bridge activity and detect operator disability which could lead to marine accidents. The system
monitors the awareness of the Officer of the Watch (OOW) and automatically alerts the Master or
another qualified OOW if for any reason the OOW becomes incapable of performing the
OOW's duties. This purpose is achieved by a series of indications and alarms to alert first the
OOW and, if he is not responding, then to alert the Master or another qualified OOW.
Additionally, the BNWAS may provide the OOW with a means of calling for immediate
assistance, if required. The BNWAS should be operational whenever the ship is underway at
sea (SOLAS V/19.2.2.3).
NOTE 2 BNWAS may not, in practice, be realised as a stand alone equipment. It may be integrated in other
equipment such as radar, ECDIS, etc.

3 Performance requirements
3.1 Functionality
3.1.1 Operational modes
(See 7.4.1)
(128/A4.1.1.1) The BNWAS shall incorporate the following operational modes:
• Automatic (Automatically brought into operation whenever the ship's heading or track
control system is activated and inhibited when this system is not activated)
• Manual ON (In operation constantly)
• Manual OFF (Does not operate under any circumstances)
NOTE The Automatic mode is not suitable for use on a ship conforming with regulation SOLAS V/19.2.2.3 which
requires the BWNAS to be in operation whenever the ship is underway at sea.
3.1.2 Operational sequence of indications and alarms
3.1.2.1 Dormant period
(See 7.4.2)
(128/A4.1.2.1) Once operational, the alarm system shall remain dormant for a period of
between 3 and 12 min (Td). See Figure 1.
(128/A4.1.2.2) At the end of this dormant period, the alarm system shall initiate a visual
indication on the bridge.

3.1.2.2 First stage bridge audible alarm
(See 7.4.3)
(128/A4.1.2.3) If not reset, the BNWAS shall additionally sound a first stage audible alarm on
the bridge 15 s after the visual indication is initiated.
3.1.2.3 Second stage remote audible alarm
(See 7.4.3)
(128/A4.1.2.4) If not reset, the BNWAS shall additionally sound a second stage remote audible
alarm in the back-up officer's and/or Master's location 15 s after the first stage audible alarm
is initiated.
3.1.2.4 Third stage remote audible alarm
(See 7.4.3)
(128/A4.1.2.5) If not reset, the BNWAS shall additionally sound a third stage remote audible
alarm at the locations of further crew members capable of taking corrective actions 90 s after
the second stage remote audible alarm is initiated.
3.1.2.5 Alarm alternatives
(See 7.4.4)
(128/A4.1.2.6) In vessels other than passenger vessels, the second or third stage remote
audible alarms may sound in all the above locations at the same time. If the second stage
audible alarm is sounded in this way, the third stage alarm may be omitted.
(128/A4.1.2.7) In larger vessels, the delay between the second and third stage alarms may be
set to a longer value on installation, up to a maximum of 3 min, to allow sufficient time for the
back-up officer and/or Master to reach the bridge.
Installation set-up facilities shall be provided to inhibit the third stage alarm and to increase
the delay between the second and third stage alarms to 3 min.
3.1.3 Reset function
3.1.3.1 Description of reset function
(See 7.4.5)
(128/A4.1.3.2) The reset function shall, by a single operator action, cancel the visual
indication and all audible alarms and initiate a further dormant period. If the reset function is
activated before the end of the dormant period, the period shall be re-initiated to run for its full
duration from the time of the reset.
Single operator action is defined as activating a hard-key or soft-key including any necessary
cursor movement.
3.1.3.2 Initiation of reset function
(See 7.4.6)
(128/A4.1.3.3) To initiate the reset function, an input representing a single operator action by
the OOW is required. This input may be generated by reset devices forming an integral part of
the BNWAS or by external inputs from other equipment capable of registering physical activity
and mental alertness of the OOW.

For the purposes of this standard, mental alertness means consciously intended operations or
movements for which there is no risk of automatic generation by vibration or by movement of
the ship.
th
NOTE The IMO subcommittee on the safety of navigation at its 55 session (NAV 55/21) described three methods
for the reset function as follows:
1) by a single operator action from a device forming an integral part of the BNWAS, for example a manually
operated button or a touch screen; or
2) by external inputs from other equipment registering physical activity, for example sensors preferably detecting the
presence and movements of a human body or floor pressure pads detecting movement of a human; or
3) by external inputs from other equipment registering mental alertness of the OOW, for example speech recognition
sensors or changes in the operation of the manual controls of bridge equipment.
3.1.3.3 Continuous activation
(See 7.4.7)
(128/A4.1.3.4) A continuous activation of any reset device shall not prolong the dormant
period or cause a suppression of the sequence of indications and alarms.
3.1.4 Emergency call facility and transfer of alarms
(See 7.4.8)
(128/A4.1.4) Means may be provided on the bridge to immediately activate the second, and
subsequently third, stage remote audible alarms by means of an "Emergency Call" push
button or similar.
Installation set-up facilities shall be provided for an “Emergency Call” system.
Facilities shall also be provided to immediately actuate the “Emergency Call” system from
other equipment capable of transferring an unacknowledged alarm by contact closure or
equivalent circuit, or an IEC 61162 interface using the ALR sentence.
NOTE Examples of equipment which are capable of transferring alarms include Integrated Navigation Systems
and Track Control Systems.
IMO Resolution MSC.252(83), paragraph 20.5.1 states: After a time defined by the user unless otherwise specified
by IMO, an unacknowledged alarm should be transferred to the bridge navigational watch alarm system (BNWAS),
if available. The unacknowledged alarm should remain visible and audible.
IMO Resolution MSC.74(69) annex 2, paragraph 5.3.4 states: In the case of any failure or alarm status received
from the position-fixing sensor, the heading sensor or the speed sensor in use: 1) an alarm should be generated
at the track control system; 2) the system should automatically provide guidance to the user of a safe steering
mode; and 3) a back-up navigator alarm should be given if a failure or alarm status is not acknowledged by the
officer of the watch (user) within 30 s.
3.2 Accuracy
(See 7.4.9)
(128/A4.2) The alarm system shall be capable of achieving the timings stated in 3.1.2 with an
accuracy of 5 % or 5 s, whichever is less, under all environmental conditions.
3.3 Security
(See 7.4.10)
(128/A4.3) The means of selecting the Operational Mode and the duration of the Dormant Period
(Td) shall be security protected so that access to these controls should be restricted to the
Master only.
– 10 – IEC 62616:2010 © IEC 2010
3.4 Malfunctions, alarms and indications
(See 7.4.11)
(128/A4.4.1) If a malfunction of, or power supply failure to, the BNWAS is detected, this shall
be indicated. Means shall be provided to allow the repeat of this indication on a central alarm
panel if fitted.
