Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - Shipborne voyage data recorder (VDR) -- Part 1: Voyage data recorder (VDR) - Performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results

This part of IEC 61996 specifies the minimum performance requirements, technical characteristics and methods of testing, and required test results, for shipborne voyage data recorder (VDR) installations as required by Chapter V of the International Convention for Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), as amended. It takes account of IMO resolution A.694(17) and is associated with IEC 60945. When a requirement in this standard is different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this standard takes precedence. This standard incorporates the applicable parts of the performance standards included in IMO Resolutions A.861(20) and MSC.214(81) Annex 1.

Foreword
The text of document 80/470/CDV, future edition 1 of IEC 61996-1, prepared by TC 80, Maritime
navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC
Parallel Unique Acceptance Procedure and was approved by CENELEC as EN 61996-1 on 2008-06-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 61996:2000.
A new requirement has been added to 4.3.5 for an interface to be used for downloading the stored data to
an external computer. This is defined in Annex C which is derived from amendments published by the
IMO in resolution MSC.214(81). An optional LAN interface for connection to radar has been added in 5.8.
Some corrections to the text have also been made. Subclause 4.3.5 (Assessment of final recording
medium) has been renumbered as 4.3.4.2 and Subclause 4.3.6 (Interfaces) has been renumbered as
4.3.5.
The following dates were fixed:

– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented

at national level by publication of an identical
(dop) 2009-03-01
national standard or by endorsement

– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
(dow) 2011-06-01
with the EN have to be withdrawn
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
__________
Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 61996-1:2007 was approved by CENELEC as a European
Standard without any modification.
In the official version, for Bibliography, the following notes have to be added for the standards indicated:
IEC 60936-1 NOTE  Harmonized as EN 60936-1:2000 (not modified).

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all
national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-
operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in
addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in
this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also
participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested
IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any
IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment
declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other
damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising
out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61996-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 80: Maritime
navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems.
This first edition cancels and replaces IEC 61996 published in 2000 and constitutes a technical
revision. A new requirement has been added to 4.3.5 for an interface to be used for downloading
the stored data to an external computer. This is defined in Annex C which is derived from
amendments published by the IMO in resolution MSC.214(81). An optional LAN interface for
connection to radar has been added in 5.8. Some corrections to the text have also been made.
Subclause 4.3.5 (Assessment of final recording medium) has been renumbered as 4.3.4.2 and
subclause 4.3.6 (Interfaces) has been renumbered as 4.3.5.

1 Scope
This part of IEC 61996 specifies the minimum performance requirements, technical characteristics
and methods of testing, and required test results, for shipborne voyage data recorder (VDR)
installations as required by Chapter V of the International Convention for Safety of Life at Sea
(SOLAS), as amended. It takes account of IMO resolution A.694(17) and is associated with
IEC 60945. When a requirement in this standard is different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this
standard takes precedence.
This standard incorporates the applicable parts of the performance standards included in IMO
Resolutions A.861(20) and MSC.214(81) Annex 1.
NOTE All text of this standard, whose wording is identical to that of IMO Resolution A.861, is printed in italics, and the
