Dynamic Positioning System
Volvo Penta IPS Dynamic Positioning system (DPS)
is a function that aids holding a selected position and
compass heading by means of a GPS signal. The
function is intended as an aid e.g. while waiting for a
berth or for a bridge to open.
From a legal standpoint, the boat is under way when
the DPS is activated. The operator has the same
responsibility regarding supervision and maneuvering
as when making way through water. The helm station
must remain attended.
It is the operator's responsibility to inform passengers
of the risks and make sure no persons or any other
boat or object that can be affected by the operation of
the DPS function are in the water near the boat. When
DPS is active, precision is affected by wind, waves,
current, and GPS signal strength. Keep away from
swimmers or any other boat or object when DPS is
active. The dynamic positioning system can be
affected by strong electromagnetic signals as created
by radar and radio transmitters. Maintain a safe dis-
tance, with a minimum of 2 boat lengths to any object.
Show consideration! When the DPS is active, it gives
rise to noise and heavy propeller wash that may
annoy those around. You are responsible for the wake
from your boat.
WARNING!
Check that nobody is in the water before engaging
DPS. Maintain a safe distance, with a minimum of two
boat lengths to any object.
Never use it in, or near, areas where people could be
in the water. Personal injury could result from contact
with propellers.
WARNING!
With DPS active, the propellers are spinning to keep
the boat in position, creating a slipstream. Keep away
from people in the water. Personal injury could result
from contact with propellers.
CAUTION!
When DPS is in use, the boat may move
unexpectedly. The operator should inform
passengers of the possibility of abrupt movement and
to hold on to prevent falls.
