The Own Ship manoeuvreing equipment is composed by the following main modules:
> Conning Monitor
> Manoeuvring Consoles [ManSim2, ManSim EXT, ManSim HSC]
According the training requirements and the available resources, one of the above components can be installed in the Own Ship(s) bridges.
MANOEUVREING EQUIPMENT
Conning Monitor
The Conning Monitor is used to control and monitor the ship's equipment and the ship's motion.
According the system hardware composition, it can be fully interactive or only partial, the interactive software panel(s) control the same equipment of the real hardware panel(s) [or control leverage].
The Conning Monitor layout is fully configurable according customer preferences.

Manoeuvreing Consoles
ManSim 2
The ManSim2 console is small consoles can be used as desktop console or as attachment for a standing console.Dimensions 510 x 274 x 116 [l x d x h]
ManSim EXT [Extended]
The ManSim EXTended is a peninsula console usually installed in medium/big simulation system.As for each manoeuvring console, the installed hardware is REAL navigation hardware, interfaced, using A/D converter board, to the ManSim processor.
ManSim HSC [High Speed Crafts]
HSC are a very difficult vessel type to handle, using this near-replica console it is possible to perform "hands-on" training.Several azimuthal control type can be installed, and any existing control panel can be replicated.
Configuration change "On the fly" [EXT and HSC and viceversa]
It is possible to change the control panel to adapt the manoeuvring console to the different ship's control system(s); the most used panels are conventional ships [manSim EXT] and high speed crafts with azimuthal controls [ManSim HSC].
It is possible to change the panel as shown in the hereunder pictures in a simple and tool-less manner, just unscrew the special bolts and unplug the connectors..

Each Ship type have its own mathematical model that is tuned according the ship's type and installed propulsion system.
The manoeuvring consoles are designed, as for each ECA-Sindel products, in a modular manner, so each system can customized according customer requirements or preferences.
The hereunder pictures show only a sample of the virtually unlimited layout of a manoeuvring console, the non-hardware panel are available in software interactive version.
It is possible to design custom console according customer requirements
