Multi-node Support
All nodes on a multi-node system perform safety checking. Each node in
the system will list the objects of concern detected by own ship safety
checking the charts on that particular node.
The periodic own ship safety checking is triggered on all nodes at the same
time.
Only one alert is raised for all chart dangers found on all nodes during the
safety checking operation. One node on the system is designated as an
arbiter for Chart Dangers alerts.
Chart Dangers alerts will appear on all nodes, irrespective of whether a
particular node has the necessary chart installed (for example, Radar only
node or a node with only raster charts installed).
If the following safety checking parameters are changed at any node, these
changes automatically go into effect on all nodes:

Safety depth (see Chart Depths/Heights)

Safety contour (see Chart Depths/Heights)

Safety height (see Chart Depths/Heights)

Look ahead time (see Dangers)
