IEC 62065:2014

Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - Track control systems - Operational and performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results

IEC 62065:2014 specifies the minimum operational and performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results conforming to performance standards adopted by the IMO in resolution MSC.74(69) Annex 2 Recommendation on Performance Standards for Track Control Systems. In addition, it takes into account IMO resolution A.694(17) to which IEC 60945 is associated. When a requirement of this standard is different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this standard takes precedence. Also it takes into account IMO resolution MSC.302(87) on bridge alert management (BAM). This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2002 and constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- alarms and warnings have been brought into line with the requirements for Bridge Alert Management;
- requirements for the category B system have been revised;
- the parameters of the ship models of Annex I have been adjusted to resemble more Newtonian-like behaviour and the tidal current has been modelled;
- a new Annex K has been added with interface requirements.

Matériels et systèmes de navigation et de radiocommunication maritimes - Systèmes de contrôle de route - Exigences opérationnelles et de fonctionnement, méthodes d'essai et résultats exigibles

L'IEC 62065:2014 spécifie les exigences opérationnelles et de fonctionnement minimales, les méthodes d'essai et les résultats d'essai exigibles conformément aux normes de performances adoptées dans la Résolution MSC.74(69) Annexe 2 de l'OMI, Recommandation sur les normes de fonctionnement des systèmes de contrôle de la route. De plus, elle tient compte de la Résolution A.694(17) de l'OMI à laquelle est associée l'IEC 60945.
Si une exigence de la présente norme diffère de l'IEC 60945, l'exigence de la présente norme prévaut. Elle prend également en compte la résolution MSC.302(87) sur la gestion des alertes à la passerelle de l'OMI.
Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition publiée en 2002 et constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les principales modifications techniques suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
- les alarmes et mises en garde ont été mis en correspondance avec les exigences relatives à la gestion des alertes à la passerelle;
- les exigences pour le système de catégorie B ont été révisées;
- les paramètres des modèles de navire de l'Annexe I ont été ajustés afin de ressembler à un comportement newtonien plus fidèle et le courant de marée a été modélisé;
- une nouvelle Annexe K a été ajoutée avec des exigences d'interface.
