1 Purpose and Emergency Function
The purpose of a Bridge Navigational Watch Alarm System (BNWAS) is to monitor bridge activity and
detect operator disability which could lead to marine accidents. The system monitors the awareness of
the Officer of the Watch (OOW) and automatically alerts the Master or another qualified OOW if for any
reason the OOW becomes incapable of performing the OOW’s duties.
The NACOS Platinum BNWAS system in addition can be used to give an overview of the alarms from
connected navigation and automation systems and to release an assist call addressed to selected crew
members.
An important additional function is the emergency call as described below:
1.1 Broadcast an Emergency Call
The Bridge Watch Alarm System can be used to give a general alarm on all horns, panels, and substa-
tions in order to call all crew members immediately to the bridge i.e. in case of an emergency.
This call is released as follows:
1 SELECT CREW MEMBER TO CALL
2
3 │S│CALL TO ALL
4 │1│
1. Press the [ASSIST CALL] key.

2. Press [S1 - CALL TO ALL]
☞ If installed the Emergency Call can also be released by means of a push button which is connected
to the central processing unit. Please check your installation in time.

2 System Overview
The Bridge Navigational Watch Alarm System (BNWAS) monitors the awareness of the Officer of the
Watch (OOW) and automatically alerts the Master or another qualified OOW if for any reason the OOW
becomes incapable of performing his duties.
If the system is active and the OOW is not pressing the timer reset button within the dormant period
(which can be set between 3 to 12 min.) a visual alarm is raised at the bridge.
Moving the trackball of one of the Platinum workstations (MFD) will also reset the timer. Optionally the
reset signal can be generated in addition by a motion sensor.
Stage 1: If no acknowledgment is given from bridge within 15 sec the alarm changes
into an audible alarm.
Stage 2: If again after 15 sec no acknowledgment is given from bridge, the alarm is
passed to the back-up officer’s cabin (second stage).
Stage 3: If further-on no acknowledgment is given from the back-up officer, the

audible alarm is extended to all back-up panels, i.e, to the mess room, to
the ship’s office etc. The default time between 2nd stage and 3rd stage is
90 seconds, but this can be increased to 180 seconds for large vessels.
The timing is according to IMO Resolution MSC.128(75) (adopted on 20 May 2002) and to IEC 62616. It
is shown in the following diagram:
Fig. III / 1 BNWAS Timing
Additionally, the BNWAS provides the OOW (officer of watch) with a means of calling for immediate assis-
tance if required. The BNWAS can be operated in three modes:
• AUTO (Automatically brought into operation whenever the ship's heading or track control
system is activated and inhibited when this system is not activated) 1)
• Manual ON (In operation constantly)
• Manual OFF (Does not operate under any circumstances)
1) AUTO mode is not suitable for ships conforming to SOLAS V/19.2.2.3 (most ships after July 2011, please refer to
page 43) which requires the BWNAS to be in operation whenever the ship is underway at sea.

3 BNWAS System Description
The BNWAS Platinum is a separate monitoring system, which is completely independent from the NACOS
Platinum workstations. It comprises at least one operator panel at the bridge, here called Bridge Panel,
further a central processing unit somewhere in a console or electronic room, and alarm horns or daughter
panels at selected locations on-board (i.e. master’s cabin).
The system is flexible to support different bridge procedures and ship designs. It is connected to the
network of the NACOS Platinum system and receives from here the alive messages whenever a trackball
at any of the workstations is moved.
The BNWAS is operated from the Bridge Panel shown

at the right. It provides on the left side 12 function
buttons for i.e. opening the alarm list, and stopping the
horn. It is fitted with a four-line display with four soft-
keys. In the lower part we have 10 buttons with LED to
indicate configurable group alarms, and cursor keys to
navigate in lists and selected items.
The optional Daughter Panel i.e. for the mess-room

provides a reduced set of functions. It is fitted with a
dual-line display again with four soft-keys. In the lower
part we have as before the 10 buttons with LED to indi-
cate the configurable group alarms, and cursor keys to
navigate in lists and selected items.
An alternative option is the Cabin Panel which only

provides 10 indicators for the group alarms and an
acknowledgment button.
1)
The timing period is reset either by:

1. The white reset button,
2. The trackball of the workstation (MFD)
3. The optional motion sensor (gray box below)
The BNWAS can be further fitted with:

• An external buzzer to alarm the OOW during
the warning time
• A switch-box to turn the system ON/OFF by 2)
means of a key 3)
• An input channel to allow external equipment Fig. 3-1 BNWAS Components

to turn the system ON/OFF (e.g. autopilot)

6 General Description of the Basic Alarm Panel
This chapter describes the basic layout, as well as controls and display elements of the operator panels
used, which form the user interface or Human Machine Interface (HMI) of the MCS Platinum. The expres-
sion “user interface” refers to the various ways in which a system communicates with its operator. This
is often also referred to as MMI or User-IF. In this section you will find a short introduction to the MMI
of a Wärtsilä SAM Electronics GmbH MCS Platinum Alarm System giving you a general understanding of
the philosophy it is based on.
Sounds (horns or buzzers), indications (lamps or LEDs), clear text (panel displays), and graphical pres-
entation (Multi Function Displays, MFD) are used to present information to the user. In order to make
sure that the user is made aware that his attention is required, the BNWAS Platinum will output signals
using horns and buzzers whenever a change in the alarm system environment takes place. In addition,
the sound pattern will give the user an idea of what has happened.
Such changes may be the occurrence of new alarms, duty calls, watch changes, etc., and any such call
for attention will always require the operator’s response. In general, the operator will respond by using
dedicated keys on the operator panels which serve for clearly defined purposes, e.g. [STOP HORN] or
[ACKN. ALARM]. In the same way, the user may view various detailed information in the MCS Platinum
by using a few simple key-strokes.

Passwords (see section 7.3 on page 26) protect the system against any unintentional use of essential
functions or against changing parameters. This means that only crew members having special user priv-
ileges can access these functions and that the general staff with basic user privileges can operate the
system without the fear of "messing things up".

6.2 LEDs
The LED indications draw the personnel's attention and inform about alarms and events in the
MCS Platinum:
• Fire LED
The Fire LED is part of a separate Fire Alarm system which is completely independent and physically
separated from the MCS Platinum.
• Deadman LED
Indicates if BNWAS is on ON (LED on) or OFF mode (LED off). Flashing LED indicates lapse of
deadman timer.
• Watch LED
The Watch LED indicates that a panel is the Watch Station 1) for an alarm system.
• Alarm Group LEDs
The panels, except for the LOP, are able to display the status of nine different alarm groups via the
group alarm LEDs.
• Alarm Group LEDs
The panels, except for the LOP, are further able to display the status of one alarm group via the
group alarm LED.
Further function key LEDs indicate that the respective function is active. This is explained in the respec-
tive sections.
6.3 Backlight Dimmer
The Display of the BAP has an adjustable backlight for LCD and LEDs so that you can adapt the bright-
ness to the light conditions in the room. The foil of the keypad is only lighted in case of the Basic Alarm
Panel Bridge. Adjusting the backlight and also adjusting the view angle is described in section 7.2 on
page 24.
1)
The Watch Station is the location having the watch responsibility. At the Watch Station, the alarms are announced
and must be acknowledged. Each alarm system can have its own Watch Station, and can have the possibility of mov-
ing the Watch Station between different locations.
18 04 (2018-02)
BNWAS Platinum
6.4 Buzzer
The panels are equipped with a buzzer which, together with the respective LED indication, draws the
crew’s attention and informs about alarms and events in the MCS Platinum. The sound will correspond
to one of the patterns shown in the following figures (standard configuration).
Continuous Sound is output in case of a lamp test (see figure below):
Fig. 6-3 Buzzer pattern – continuous sound
One Short Sound repeated every few seconds is used in case of duty officer/engineer selection, until
confirmed on the main panel or on the duty panel or when switching between "Attended WS" and "Unat-
tended WS / bridge standby" (see figure below):
Fig. 6-4 Buzzer pattern – one short sound repeated every few sec
Two Short Sounds repeated every 5 seconds are used to indicate BNWAS malfunction or power supply
failure (see figure below):
Fig. 6-5 Buzzer pattern – two short sounds repeated every 5 sec
Three Short Sounds repeated every 7 to 10 sec are used to indicate a first, second, or third stage
alarm (see figure below):
Fig. 6-6 Buzzer pattern – three short sounds repeated every 7-10 sec
One Single Short Sound is indicated if a key is used which is not useful or permitted in the current
functional mode (see figure below):
Fig. 6-7 Buzzer pattern – single short sound
This standard setup of sounds can be customised. The patterns can be assigned to different conditions.
However, the illegal key operation is always indicated by one single buzzer signal.

7 Operation Description
This description is based on standard solutions for BNWAS. The system is however very flexible, and
many features are possible beside the description in this document.
7.1 Basic Panel Operation
This section provides information regarding navigating through MCS Platinum functions and menus. It
explains how to call up functions, how to access information, and how to use the controls and display
elements of the panels.
7.1.1 Softkeys
The panels have four softkeys, which are located just below the display. The softkeys are only used in
some modes, and they serve for varying purposes. When enabled, the function of a key is shown on the
display in the following way:
1
2
3 │S│<soft │S│<soft │S│<soft │S│<soft
4 │1│keytxt>│2│keytxt>│3│keytxt>│4│keytxt>
Fig. 7-1 Softkeys on a BAP
The current function of the softkeys is shown in line 3 and 4. Line 1 and 2 can contain additional infor-
mation, depending on the current functional mode. On the Basic Alarm Panel Accommodation, line 3 and
4 are displayed only.
The <softkey txt> identifies the function of the softkey. If more than four functions are available for a
mode the softkey text for [S4] will be "MORE". When you press [S4], then the panel will display the next
set of softkeys.
7.1.2 [ESC] Key
The [ESC] key is a general quit or exit key. When you press [ESC], this will generally take you one step
up (backwards) in the tree structure of the menus and functions. The current operation is cancelled. If
you press [ESC] while entering a numeric value, the value entered is discarded. If you press [ESC] again
after having cancelled all functions, then the buzzer will sound to indicate that it is no longer useful to
press [ESC].
7.1.3 [ENT] Key
The [ENT] key is the key used to accept or confirm input or a message. [ENT] is e.g. used to accept a
numeric value entered.
20 04 (2018-02)
BNWAS Platinum
7.1.4 Arrow Keys
The functions of arrow keys on the panel keypad (up [ ], down [ ], left [ ], and right [ ]) depend
on the current functional mode. In some cases they will be used to step through list or menus, in other
cases they will be used to select items or set values. This will be indicated in the specific descriptions.
Navigating Through Lists
Some of the lists, e.g. the Alarm List, displayed in the MCS Platinum may be too long to fit the four-line
and particularly the two-line LCDs. This is indicated by the and/or icons in the top right corner of
the LCD. Scrolling in such lists is not possible. You must press the [ ] and [ ] keys repeatedly to step
through lists. Scrolling by pressing and holding a button is not possible.
When you reach the end of a list, some lists will behave like a continuous conveyor belt and just start
from the beginning again. In case of other lists, the end of the list will be indicated by a text like
"<END OF LIST>" and in the top right corner of the display only the icon will be displayed. If you still
continue to press the [ ] key, then the buzzer will sound to remind you of the end of the list. This will
also happen at the start of the list.
7.1.5 [STOP HORN] & [ALARM ACKN] Keys
Never stop the horn and acknowledge parameters with the only aim to
silence the system. Ensure that alarms are handled properly and thor-
oughly.
Pressing [STOP HORN] causes the buzzer in the panel to stop except when it has been started by an All
Operators Call, see 7.7.5 on page 41. After having pressed the [STOP HORN] key, you can use the
[ALARM ACKN] key on the Watch Station (and only there) to acknowledge the unacknowledged alarms.
If several new alarms are present, all currently displayed alarms in the display are acknowledged at the
same time.

BNWAS Platinum
7.1.6 Function Keys
The panel functions are implemented as a number of operating modes, which are selected using dedi-
cated keys on the keypad. The only exception is the Basic mode. This mode is entered whenever the
MCS Platinum is reset or when you press [ESC], possibly repeatedly.
The dedicated function keys for the functions and features of the system are located on the left side of
the panel. The function of the keys are predefined and do not vary. Using the function keys you can
immediately access a specific function or mode in the MCS Platinum. The available keys on a panel
depend on the available functional modes of that particular panel. When one of the function keys is
pressed, the LED on the key will be illuminated for as long as the selected function is active. When
pressing one of the function keys the panel will enter the selected functional mode immediately, regard-
less of the current status of the panel.
The following table lists the available function keys:
Available at Functional Mode Key Description

DAP 2200 Basic mode No dedicated key See section 7.4 on page 28
DAP 2200 Alarm List [ALARM LIST] See section 7.5 on page 29
DAP 2200 Duty Call functions [DUTY]

be Watch Station
Table 7-1 Operator panel functions and function keys
The functional modes are organised in a tree structure, like a menu in a software application on a PC.
When one of the functional modes is selected the presentation on the LCD of the panel starts at level 1
of the structure. From this point the operator is guided through the tree structure by means of text and
softkeys. The following figure shows the simple structure of the Dimmer menu:

7.1.7 Entering Alphanumeric Values
Some MCS Platinum functions require input of alphanumeric values. The procedure is the very much the
same as when you enter text for a short message (SMS) on your mobile phone without using any input
aids. So, if the value contains alphabetic characters, you have to press the respective numeric key
repeatedly until the desired letter is displayed. For example, to enter a "P", you have to press the
numeric key [6] twice, and to enter the letter "X" you have to press the numeric key [8] 4 times. If you
want to enter the same digit or letter again, you have to move the cursor using the [ ] key. Otherwise,
the desired number would not be entered twice in a row but the digit on that position would be replaced
by the respective letter.
Input Example
For example, if you want to enter the value "1442A", proceed as follows:
1. Press numeric key [1] once.
The cursor will automatically move to the next position, i.e. the "4" is entered as second digit from
the left.
3. Press the [ ] key to move the cursor one position to the right.
If you do not press the arrow key but just press key [4] a second time, then the letter "J" will be
entered at the second position.
If you press the [ ] key to move the cursor one position to the right, this will not cause input errors
but it is not required because the next digit in the example is not 4.
The cursor will automatically move to the next position so that the "2" is entered at the correct posi-
tion behind the second 4.
6. Press numeric key [1] twice.
The cursor will automatically move to the next position, and the "A" is entered at the last position.
7. Press [ENT] to confirm the input.
NOTE:
When you overwrite a default value which is longer than the value you wish to enter,
then you might have to delete the last digits or characters of the default value by over-
writing it with SPACE, i.e. you have to press [0] twice.

Use the [ ] or [ ] key to reduce the backlight intensity.
When you reach the highest or lowest possible level, the buzzer will indicate this.
4. Press [ESC] to return to Basic mode.
7.2.2 Adjusting the View Angle
If the LCD is not at your eye level, e.g. because you do not stand but sit in front of the panel so that
you have look at it at an angle, you might find that the display is not clear. Proceed as follows to adapt
the contrast of the display to the view angle:
1. Press the [DIMMER] key.
2. Press [S2] View Angle to adjust the contrast of the display.
3. Use the [ ] and [ ] keys to adjust the optimum readability of the display.
If the panel’s mounting position is high, you will probably have to use the [ ] key, because you look
at the panel from below.

7.3 Password Protection – Privileged Access
Some of the panel functions are password-protected. In such cases, you will be prompted to enter a
password of a specific level. An operator panel can operate in four privileged access levels. Various sub-
functions of the main functional modes require that you enter the password of the respective level.
NOTE:
Password-protected functions have a timer function. After entering a password, the
panel will enter the desired functional mode and the LED of the related key will flash. If
you do not press any key for a while, for safety reasons, the LED will stop flashing and
the panel will automatically return to a level in the functional modes which is not pass-
word-protected. That means, the panel would behave as if [ESC] was pressed. In such
cases, you will have to repeat the password input.
If the panel prompts for, e.g., password level 1, then the panel will also accept passwords of higher
levels. So, for level 1, the panel will accept the passwords of levels 1, 2, 3, or 4. In case password level
2 is prompted for, at least the level 2 password is required, but also level 3 and 4 passwords will work.
During everyday operation the operator panel is used for, e.g., alarm acknowledgement, display of
alarms, display of channel set up, i.e. functions which do not require privileged mode. The four privileged
levels serve for the following purposes:
• 1st privileged access level is used for, e.g., adjustment of alarm delays and making manual Cut-
Outs.
• 2nd privileged access level is used when more advanced changes are required. For example change
of the printer setup.
• 3rd privileged access level is available for control/adjustments of the deadman alarm system(s).
• 4th privileged access level is reserved for very special functions and to change passwords.
NOTE:
The passwords configured during customisation will be handed out to you together with
these operating instructions. Changing passwords requires the password of the respec-
tive next higher privilege level. Except is level 4 which requires level 4.
26 04 (2018-02)
BNWAS Platinum
7.3.1 Entering a Password
When you select a function which requires a password, the password prompt is output on the LCD. It
indicates the required password level (1-4). Example:
ENTER PASSWORD - LEVEL 2: **
Fig. 7-4 Entering a password on a BAP
You can press [ESC] at any stage while entering a password. The system will then return to the mode
in which it was operating just before the password entry began. Use the numeric keys and softkeys to
enter the complete password. The cursor is placed on the first position of the password to be entered.
The input is hidden. That means that every time you press a key (except [ENT] or [ESC]), the cursor
will move one position to the right and an asterisk (*) is output in the line. Press [ENT] to confirm your
input. If the password consists of 6 digits, then you do not have to press [ENT]. The display will switch
to the desired function automatically after you have entered the correct sixth digit.
If the password is correct, the panel enters the corresponding password-protected mode or function, and
you can continue your operation. If the password is not correct, e.g., if you pressed the wrong keys or
if you pressed too many keys, the LCD displays:
ILLEGAL PASSWORD HAS BEEN ENTERED!
ENTER PASSWORD - LEVEL 2:
Fig. 7-5 Error message after of incorrect password
Just repeat the input, and press [ENT] to confirm the input.
NOTE:
If the error message is displayed repeatedly although you are sure you entered the
correct password, it might be that the password was changed. So if in doubt, ask you
supervisor for changed passwords.

7.4 Basic Mode
On power-up of the panel, or reset of the Field Processing Device 1), the Basic mode will automatically
be selected. You can select the Basic mode at any time by pressing [ESC], possibly repeatedly. In Basic
mode, the panel displays:
Example:
1 * 12 ALARMS (M,B,C) CH(s) SUPP.

Fig. 7-6 Alarms displayed in Basic mode
The Basic display shows:

• First Line:
If there is an asterisk (*) at the beginning of the first line, this indicates that there are unacknowl-
edged alarms in the MCS Platinum.
• First line:
Total number of alarms, regardless of whether the alarms have already been acknowledged or not

7.6.3 Set Time (UTC)
The system time can be displayed in Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) or local time (LT). The system
time is displayed, e.g. in the channel parameters of a monitoring channel selected in the Alarm List or
in the headers of reports. To ensure that the MCS Platinum functions properly and correctly, both times
must be set correctly. In most standard configurations, the MCS Platinum will receive date and time from
the master clock. If the MCS Platinum is not connected to a master clock, then date and time must be
manually entered and checked at regular intervals. For example, the LT needs to be adjusted, when the
ship enters a new time zone.
NOTE:
Depending on the system configuration, the MCS Platinum may be connected to an
optional master clock supplying a master clock signal to the MCS Platinum which will
overrule any manual adjustments described in the following. Any manually adjusted
time or date will be automatically replaced by the time of the master clock.
To set the UTC, proceed as follows:

7.6.4 Setting Local Time and Date (LT)
The system time can be displayed in Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) or local time (LT). The system
time is displayed, e.g. in the channel parameters of a monitoring channel selected in the Alarm List or
in the headers of reports. To ensure that the MCS Platinum functions properly and correctly, both times
must be set correctly.
The Local Time is calculated based on the UTC time (see 7.6.3 on page 31 above) plus or minus an
offset of one or more hours. The maximum offset is +/- 12 hours. The date is calculated accordingly. As
soon as the ship enters a new time zone, the LT must be set to the correct time. You can change the
time by fixed values (see A d j u s t T i m e i n F i x e d S t e p s below) or enter the new time directly. To set the

and customisation of the system. The function is therefore not explained in these operating instructions.
7.6.8 Changing Passwords
NOTE: This section explains how to change a password. As an example, the level 1 password is
changed. Changing passwords of other levels works according to the same principle.
Please note that changing passwords requires the respective privileges. To change a pass-
word of a certain level, you will be prompted to enter the password of the next higher level.
For example, you have to enter the level 2 password, or higher, to change the level 1 pass-
word. However, level 4 requires level 4. See also section 7.3 on page 26.
To change a password proceed as described in the following example:

2. Press [S4] More twice.
3. Select [S1] Change PW LEV 1. The LCD displays:
1

After entering a valid password the LCD displays:
1 CHANGE PASSWORD
2 ENTER NEW PASSWORD - LEVEL 1:
3 CONFIRM PASSWORD - LEVEL 1:
4
Fig. 7-20 Changing the level 1 password
36 04 (2018-02)
BNWAS Platinum
5. Enter the new password.

The following password conventions apply:
• For passwords, only the numeric keys (0-9) can be used. All other keys are invalid for passwords,
and pressing them will cause the buzzer to sound.
• A password consists of 6 digits max. and at least one digit, i.e. only one key must be pressed. Other-
wise, an error message will be displayed after pressing [ENT].
• If a password consist of 6 digits, then the last key pressed for the password will confirm the input.
[ENT] is not pressed after input.
• If [ENT] is pressed when less than 6 keys have been entered (but more than one), the password
only consists of the the keys entered so far.
• If more than 6 digits are entered, then only the first 6 are used. Any further key pressed will be
ignored.
6. If required, press [ENT] to confirm the password you entered.
7. Under “Confirm Password”, repeat the password. If required, press [ENT].
In case you made any mistake when entering or repeating the password, then an error message will be
displayed. Then you just have to repeat the steps 5 on page 37 and 6 on page 37 above.
7.6.9 Store Setup
This function serves to store settings you made, e.g. adjusted channel parameters, in a non-volatile
memory immediately. The settings are also automatically stored at regular intervals. However, this may
take some time. So, if you want to be sure, settings are saved immediately, proceed as follows:
2. Press [S4] More four times.
3. Press [S1] Store Setup.
4. Enter the required password.
5. All settings are stored immediately. The panel returns to Basic mode.2

7.7 Deadman System
The BNWAS Platinum uses its so-called Deadman System which is based on a timer to check the navi-
gator’s fitness as required for an BNWAS. A deadman system basically is a timer (countdown) which has
to be reset in time. The timer is reset using external separate reset push buttons, by pressing a button
on a specified Basic Alarm Panel, or by moving the trackball of the Workstation on the Watch Station.
If a deadman alarm system timer is not reset regularly, then an alarm will be triggered. At first, a
deadman warning is output followed by a deadman alarm, if there is no response to the warning esca-
lating the alarm to a second and third stage alarm. The setup and operation of the deadman system is
described in the following sections.
7.7.1 Setting up the Deadman System(s)
NOTE:
Setting up a deadman system requires at least password level 3.
Each of the individual deadman alarm systems can be set up as follows:

• The system can be set ON/OFF automatically controlled by a binary input. For example, the navi-
gator deadman system is set ON when one of the steering gear pumps is running.
• The operator can select between ON and OFF.
For each deadman alarm system a BAP is customised to control the deadman status selection. The
following options are available:
• Selection of deadman status from a unique BAP
• Selection of deadman status from the WS.
• Selection of deadman status using external hardware (switch)
To change the status of the deadman system proceed as described in the following example:
If the deadman system is already active, press the [DEADMAN] key twice within 5 seconds.
That means, first press the key to reset the deadman timer, then press the key again to enter the
deadman function. If the panel is allowed to control the status of one more of the deadman systems
the LCD displays:
1 SELECT DEADMAN SYSTEM

Fig. 7-21 Selecting a deadman alarm system
2. Using the softkeys, select the desired deadman system.

The deadman system status is displayed.
NOTE:
The display in the figure above is omitted if the panel can change the status for one of
the systems only.

In the figure, “UNFIT BRIDGE” identifies the selected deadman alarm system, “OFF” indicates the present
status, and “2 MIN.” is the current setting of the deadman timer, i.e., if the deadman system is activated,
then the operator has to press a key at least every 2 minutes.
3. If you wish to change the time interval of the deadman timer, select [S4] Adjust Time, and enter the
required password. The LCD displays:

2 OFF
3 DEADMAN TIME : 2 MIN.
4 ENTER NEW VALUE : [1-5]?2
Fig. 7-23 Deadman time prompt
4. Enter the desired value using numeric keys 1 to 5.

In the example, the value may range between 1 and 5 minutes. However, this depends on the system
configuration of the MCS Platinum.
In case you attempt to enter an invalid value, the value will be rejected and the buzzer will sound.
5. Press [ENT] to confirm the value. The display returns to the previous screen.
If you press [ESC] you will return to the previous screen without making any changes.
6. Select [S2] Start to activate the deadman system and thus to start the deadman timer.
7. Enter the required password.
The new status will be displayed accordingly.
The Deadman LED on the panel which can be used to reset the deadman timer is constantly on. To
prevent an alarm the responsible operator must press any key on that panel at the required regular
intervals set as described above. If the operator fails to press a key in time, the deadman alarm
sequence starts, see section 7.7.4 on page 41.
The deadman system is now set up.
7.7.2 Displaying the Deadman System Status on a Resetting Panel
Each BAP can be customised to reset the deadman timer in one of the four available deadman alarm
systems. If the deadman function is active, this is indicated by the Deadman LED on your panel, which
is constantly on. This means that the panel acts as deadman switch which has to be operated regularly.
In order to prevent an alarm you have to press a key at regular intervals. Proceed as follows to check
the deadman system status and to find out the deadman time:
1. On a panel which can reset a deadman alarm timer, press the [DEADMAN] key twice within 5 sec-
onds. That means, first press the key to reset the deadman timer, then press the key again to enter
the deadman function. Example:
04 (2018-02) 39
BNWAS Platinum
1 DEADMAN SYSTEM UNFIT MACH.

2 ON 5 MIN.
Fig. 7-24 Deadman system status on a two-line LCD of a LOP
2. Check the deadman system status and the deadman time.

In the example, the deadman system of the machinery area is On. The deadman time is set to 5 min.
so you have to press any key on the panel every 5 minutes the latest to prevent an alarm.
7.7.3 Resetting the Deadman Timer
To reset the deadman timer in order to prevent a deadman alarm you can carry out one of the following
actions:
• Press any button on the relevant BAP.
• Move the trackball of the MFD on the Watch Station (if available)
• Press an external switch (if customised)
Proceed as follows to reset the deadman timer and check the deadman status on a BAP:
1. Check whether the Deadman LED is on.
If it is off, then the deadman function is deactivated.
2. If the Deadman LED is on, press the [DEADMAN] key twice within 5 seconds.
That means, first press the key to reset the deadman timer, then press the key again to enter the
deadman function.
3. If the panel is allowed to control the status of one more of the deadman systems, use the softkeys to
select the desired deadman system. The LCD displays the current status of the deadman system.
Example:

2 ON 2 MIN.
3 │S│STOP │S│ADJUST
4 │1│ │4│TIME
Fig. 7-25 Deadman systems status – On

5. Before the deadman time elapses, press any key on your panel to reset the deadman timer.
6. Repeat pressing a key at the required intervals.
NOTE:
If a MFD is connected, you can also reset the deadman timer by moving the MFD track-
ball.

BNWAS Platinum
7.7.4 Deadman Alarm Sequence
If the deadman function is set up and activated (see section 7.7.1 on page 38 above), this is indicated
by the Deadman LED being constantly on. If you forget to reset the deadman timer within the defined
deadman time by pressing a key, the following alarm sequence is started:
1. The Deadman LED flashes.
Now, you have 15 seconds to reset the timer by pressing the [DEADMAN] key or any other key.
2. After elapse of the 15 seconds, the deadman warning is output:
The Deadman LED of the resetting panel continues flashing and the buzzer sounds
(intermittent beep).
3. If you fail to reset the deadman timer despite the Deadman Warning, then after a defined time, e.g.
second stage alarm is triggered and is output to the backup officer’s location.
7.7.5 Alarm Escalation – All Operators Call
In case alarms are not acknowledged by an engineer or officer within a predetermined time an All Oper-
ators Call will be announced on all panels connected to the MCS Platinum, regardless of whether a person
is selected as duty or not. This corresponds to the 3rd stage Alarm according to MSC.128(75). The
buzzers and horns start to sound, and these can be stopped by the acknowledging all alarms on the
Watch Station only. The All Operators Call is output on the following panels:
• All Basic Alarm Panels Accommodation operating as public room panels
• All Basic Alarm Panels Accommodation in the cabins
• Watch Station and all Basic Alarm Panels which could be selected as Watch Station
• Basic Alarm Panel Bridge
The panels respond in the following way:
• The Alarm LED flashes.
• The buzzer sounds (alarm sound).
When an All Operators Call is initiated, then the buzzers cannot be stopped locally. All buzzers are on
until all alarms have been acknowledged from the Watch Station.
04 (2018-02) 41
BNWAS Platinum
7.8 Emergency Call Function
This system is an integrated part of the MCS Platinum and serves to call individuals or a group of persons
(all engineers, all officers) for help from Basic Alarm Panels (possible Watch Stations, Accommodation).
On the panels which are located in the public rooms, both the information “who is called” and “to where”
(i.e. the requesting location, e.g., engine room) are available on the LCDs. This way, the called officer
knows that he has to contact a specific location needing assistance, regardless of his own current loca-
tion. This function enables the engineers to call for assistance both from the bridge, from the engine
control room. This corresponds to the “Emergency Call Function” according to MSC.128(75).
See “Broadcast an Emergency Call” on page 5
