Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 8, Ships and marine technology,
Subcommittee SC 6, Navigation and ship operations.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 20673:2007), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— in Clause 2, deleted IEC 61162-1 and IEC 61162-2;
— in 4.1 and 6.1, added a provision on displays for presentation and a reference to IEC 62288;
— in new 4.4 and 6.6, added a provision on alerts and a reference to IEC 62923-1 and IEC 62923-2;
— in Clause 7, updated interface requirements;
— in the Bibliography, added IEC 61162-1, IEC 61162-2, IEC 61162-450, IEC 62288, IEC 62923-1,
IEC 62923-2, IMO Resolution MSC.191(79), IMO Resolution MSC.302(87) and IMO Resolution
MSC.466(101).
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
