3.5.1.8 Safety Status Bar (DSI - Data Safety Indicator)

'MENU' + "MAP SETTINGS" +'ENTER' + "Safety Status Bar" + 'ENTER'

It is possible to choose between the three following options:

• ON : the Safety Status Bar is shown

• OFF : the Safety Status Bar is not shown

• ICON : the Safety Status Bar is not shown, but a warning alarm icon is

shown on the corner of the map screen as soon as any item con-

trolled by the DSI function returns an alarm condition. The Warn-

ing Icon remains displayed until the alarm condition persists. Plac-

ing the cursor over it, a quick help message is shown next to the

DSI icon, allowing to show the DSI bar. In this case - when the

DSI bar is opened via DSI alarm icon - it is allowed to obtain

information about each “active” DSI box (the red ones): it is pos-

sible to select them by cursor movement left/right, and a list of

active alarms is shown underneath the selected box. By pressing

'CLEAR', the DSI bar is removed from the screen.

When Safety Status Bar is On, this feature displays a status bar with six boxes

showing the status of certain functions. Any warning or alarm condition is identified by the

red colour to indicate possible risk.
