11.  CHART ALERTS

The system will calculate chart alerts using user-defined channel limit for routes. Dan-
ger areas are shown highlighted if safety contour or user-chosen chart alert areas are 
crossed by the planned route. For more information on route planning, see chapter 12.

Note: If your voyage is going to take a long time or you are planning it much earlier 
than it is to take place, use the Display date and Approved until dates corresponding 
to the dates you are going to sail.

You can generate a list of chart alerts that cross by the planned route. This can be 
done as follows:

1. Enter safety contour you want to use.
2. Plan a route; define waypoints and other necessary information. See chapter 12 

for route planning.

3. Choose dangerous objects to be monitored during route monitoring, on the [Alert 

Parameters] dialog box in the [Plan Route] dialog box, shown below.
a) Click the [PLAN], [Planning] and [Route] buttons.
b) Click the [Alert Parameters] tab.
c) Click the alert to process. Show a red circle for visual and aural alerts, or yel-

low circle for visual alert.

4. Click the [Check Route] button to generate a list of chart alerts. The results appear 

on the [Check Results] page.

The figure above shows the alerts to be monitored. If there are alerts included in 
the planned route, check alerts leg by leg, or check alerts by using category of 
alert.
