7. Emergency operation unit::
The emergency operation control system - Em - is
conceived as a simple engine speed and gearbox
control system which enables safe continuation of
a trip in the event of a failure in the electrical con
trol lever system.
The operation unit for emergency running control is
preferably integrated next to the throttle lever in
the bridge console. For safe marine operation, the
front buttons must be easily accessible. When the
ignition is on, emergency running can be activated
by way of appropriate function buttons. A green
LED indicates operational readiness.
Operation is effected by way of six front buttons,
which light up when a requested status is achieved
and thus indicate the relevant operating or actual
status.
