Basic+ ERS1 State Changes
The ERS1 can be used on the vessel during the fishing voyage, or for its main purpose in this
configuration which is to report the vessels catch.
The ERS1 provides a screen where the catch can be entered and declared as a Landing
Report. This can only be carried out when the vessel has returned to Port and the ERS1 has
detected a number of Fishing events (from the Fishing button).
When the Port button has been pressed for the final time to determine that the voyage is
complete, the system will require a Landing Report from the ERS1. This will be indicated on
the ERS1 screen as a red badge above the To-Do list on the ERS1.
When the Landing Report has been completed on the ERS1, the transceiver will officially
declare the vessel back in Port, the Port button will stop flashing, and the landing report will
be sent to the control centre.
The Port screen also shows an End Trip button which can be used to inform the control
centre that the current fishing trip is over.
Figure 4 shows example Landing Report screens.
