1.HOW THE BRIDGE ALARM
SYSTEM OPERATES
The FURUNO BR-1000 Bridge Alarm System has the following purposes:
• Bridge Alarm: Control all warning notices from the navigation equipment installed
on the bridge.
• Watch Safety Alarm: Monitor bridge activity to detect operator disability which can
cause marine accidents.
1.1Bridge Alarm
The bridge alarm controls all the warning notices from the navigation equipment installed on the bridge. When an equipment gives an alarm, the alarm is sent in three
stages.
• 1st stage: When a device connected to this system sends an alarm, the system
gives 30-second long visual (flashing lamp) and audible (buzzer) alarms from the
Bridge Panel and the Timer Reset Panel to tell the Officer of the Watch (hereafter
called OOW) on the bridge.
• 2nd stage: If the OOW does not acknowledge the 1st stage alarm, the Cabin Panel
in the living quarters of the selected back-up officer and the Cabin Panels fitted in
public areas give audible and visual alarms.
• 3rd stage: if no one acknowledges the 2nd stage alarm within the selected time in-
terval (90-180 s), all the Cabin Panels fitted in living quarters of all navigation officers and public areas give audible and visual alarms.
To stop the audible alarm, press the BUZ STOP key on the Bridge Panel. The audible
alarm stops at the Bridge Panel, Timer Reset Panel and the equipment that gave the
alarm.
After you stop the audible alarm, press the ACK key to acknowledge the alarm. The
Bridge Panel displays the visual alarm “Pending” and the visual alarm at the Timer Reset Panel is stopped. The “Pending” indication remains on the Bridge Panel until the
cause for the alarm is removed. Stop the audible alarm BEFORE
the alarm. If the buzzer is not stopped first, the visual alarm is not stopped when you
press the ACK key.

1.2Watch Safety Alarm
The main purpose of the watch safety alarm is to monitor bridge activity on the ship
that uses a “one-man bridge”. The system looks for the operation of equipment within
the selected time interval (3-12 minutes). The OOW validates operator fitness on the
bridge with the WATCH/RESET button on the Timer Reset Panel or any operation on
the Bridge Panel. The system also acknowledges the presence of the OOW if some
equipment connected to the BR-1000 (radar, ECDIS, etc.) is operated. The watch
safety alarm has four stages, one a prewarning stage.
• Prewarning: If the OOW does not validate operator fitness within the selected time
interval, a lamp on the Bridge Panel flashes (in red) and a lamp on the Timer Reset
Panel flashes (in yellow) for 15 seconds.

• 1st stage: If the OOW does not validate operator fitness in the prewarning stage,
the lamps flash an additional 15 seconds and a 15-second audible alarm sounds.
• 2nd stage: If the OOW does not validate operator fitness at the 1st stage, the alarm
is sent to the Cabin Panel in the living quarters of the selected back-up officer and
all the Cabin Panels fitted in public areas. These Cabin Panels give visual (illuminated lamp) and audible (buzzer) alarms.
• 3rd stage: If the OOW does not validate operator fitness within the selected time
interval (90-180 s), the Cabin Panel in the living quarters of all navigation officers
and all the Cabin Panels fitted in public areas give audible and visual alarms (illuminated lamp).
1. HOW THE BRIDGE ALARM SYSTEM OPERATES
The OOW stops the audible alarm and acknowledges the alarm. Then, audible and
visual alarms at the Bridge Panel, Cabin Panels and Timer Reset Panel are removed
and the watch safety timer is reset.
The interpretation of the prewarning 15-second visual alarm (flashing) and the15-second visual (flashing) and audible (buzzer) alarms at the 1st stage depends on the
mode type selected. The BR-1000 can be configured for IMO (International Maritime
Organization) or DNV (Det Norkse Veritas, Norwegian classification society).
IMO: Alarm given for 30 seconds AFTER
DNV: Alarm given for 30 seconds BEFORE
The required mode can be selected from the Service menu.
The sequence of the watch safety alarm in each mode is shown in the figures that fol-
low.

Press the BRILL key to turn on the Bridge Panel. The start-up screen appears.
The program number is shown and the system checks the ROM and RAM. If the ROM
and RAM are normal, OK appears for their check results. If NG (NoGood) appears for
any check result, reset the power to try to restore normal operation. If NG still appears,
contact your dealer.
Press any key at the start-up screen to go to the standby display (see section 2.4).
You can also go to the standby display if you wait 10 seconds after the completion of
the start-up check.
To turn off the Bridge Panel, press the BRILL key until the power goes off (approx. 10

Alarm and brilliance level
The system increases the brilliance when the bridge alarm or watch alarm is given.
For the bridge alarm, the brilliance is increased by 10, up to a maximum of 50. The
brilliance is kept until the cause for the alarm is removed.
For the watch safety alarm, the brilliance is increased by 10, up to a maximum of 50.
If the alarm is acknowledged at the 1st stage, the previous brilliance is restored. If an
alarm is not acknowledged at the 1st stage (the alarm is then sent to the Cabin Panels), the previous brilliance is restored after the BUZ STOP and ACK keys are
pressed, in that order.
