Chart Installation
Importing Charts
CAUTION:
Chart installation will cause the VMFT to shut down.
Charts can be installed onto a VMFT node in
one of two ways, depending on the chart
database being installed. The type of charts
that can be installed will also depend on the
configuration of your system.
1. C-Map charts are imported via the
Sperry Chart Installer.
2. SevenCs charts (ARCS or ENC) are imported via the SevenCs Chart
Handler utility.
In order to load charts a VM Security Block (sometimes referred to a
dongle) must be connected to one of the available USB sockets at the rear
of the PC. The VM dongle identifies the particular product type for the
workstation, (i.e. ECDIS-E).
For a description of importing encrypted ENC (S-63) charts provided by
NAVTOR refer to `
NAVTOR Charts ’ in Appendix A, ` Chart Installation '
Importing C-Map Charts
For information regarding the importing C-Map charts, refer to Appendix A,
`
Chart Installation ', ` Installing C-Map Charts ’.
Importing SevenCs Charts
The SevenCs ChartHandler is accessed via the Chart Installation window
and enables the loading of ARCS (raster format) and ENC charts. World
Charts are preloaded into the VMFT.
