ENC Online Updating Service Customer User Guide

Version 1.3

Service Overview
Welcome to the Admiralty Updating Service, supplied by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO). This Service includes both the ARCS Online Update Service (AOUS) and the ENC Online Updating Service (EOUS). This user guide is specifically designed to help you learn about the EOUS features and options available to you through use of this facility. The AOUS User Guide is available as a separate document on the CD within the Update Service\User Guides\ AOUS folder or from the UKHO website. This complimentary service has been created to provide the latest available Notices to Mariners to Licensees of ENCs, via email or web service. Voyage specific updates (rather than updates for your entire chart holding) can be downloaded, which will reduce excessive transmission costs for redundant information. Note: A Weekly Update CD will continue to be sent to you via your Admiralty Distributor in accordance with Admiralty Notices to Mariners (NMs), for the period of your licence. It is recommended that the Online Service is used in conjunction with your most recent, weekly Update CD and that after downloading remote updates that you immediately update your ECDIS/ECS display system. (See Section Writing Your ENC Online Updating Service CD). Important:
T

We strongly recommend that you keep separate permanent written records of all information that you choose to download for reference purposes, in line with SOLAS Regulation Chapter V 2002.
T

Online Updating Features


The ENC Online Updating Service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and provides the latest chart updates in accordance with weekly Notices to Mariners. Chart updates will be available from the UKHO at 12:00hrs GMT on Thursday of each week. Chart updates can be requested by email or by web service. Voyage specific updates (rather than updates for your entire chart holding) can be downloaded, which will reduce excessive transmission costs for redundant information. This facility is a request service (there is no mailing list) therefore, you will only receive updates for charts that you have asked for. Updates can also be processed on your behalf by your distributor and emailed to you. Contact your distributor for further information. Online updates work in the same manner as your weekly update CD and are easy to install. A log is created of information downloaded for Officers of the Watch/colleagues to review. As the information is cumulative, it is most cost effective to download charts on a weekly basis to ensure file sizes are kept to a minimum. File sizes and download costs will vary greatly depending on the number of charts requiring updates, the period of time since the last update was received and your communications price plan. In line with SOLAS Regulations, the ENC Online Updating Service will operate on a separate workstation rather than directly downloading data to your ECDIS/ECS. Digital Signatures are applied to all updates transmitted from the UKHO server and the ENC Online Updating application will check the Digital Signature and the update process will not complete successfully unless the Digital Signatures are intact. Following the successful completion of the download, you will need to write / burn the Exchange Set data to CD and update your ECDIS. If your ECDIS/ECS supports receiving updates on other media such as a USB memory stick, then the updates can be transferred in the same way simply copy the Exchange Set onto the USB memory stick.

Writing Your ENC Online Updating Service CD


7. You are now ready to burn your Exchange Set to CD. The specified file name e.g.: \My Documents\Exchange Sets should be recorded to help you locate it when following the CD writing process. Note: If your ECDIS/ECS supports receiving updates on other media such as a USB memory stick, then the updates can be transferred in the same way simply copy the Exchange Set onto the USB memory stick. 8. Follow the instructions provided with your CD burning software (not provided as part of this service) to create a CD ensuring that all folders and files in the Exchange Sets folder have been selected. Set the CD Volume Name to V01X01. Transfer your updated permit file from the EOUS created exchange set to your ECDIS/ECS. Some ECDIS/ECS require this to be done to allow loading of a new edition.

9.

10. It is important that, once the CD has been written, it should be used to update your ECDIS/ENC display system. This will ensure that your EOUS application and your ECDIS/ECS display system are synchronised with the latest updates. Note: It is important, when you receive your UKHO published ENC Update CD, that this is used to update your ECDIS/ECS to ensure that all licensed cells are brought up-to-date. The UKHO published CD will contain all ENC updates (your EOUS Online Update CD will only contain voyage specific ones). The Update CD should then be installed within the EOUS system to reset the Starting from date. UKHO published ENC Update CDs contain cumulative information. If you receive more than one ENC Update CD at the same time, you only need to load the most recent one. If the information downloaded is more recent than that on your UKHO issued ENC Update CD, the most up-to-date information will be maintained and will not be overwritten. As the information is cumulative, it is most cost effective to download charts on a weekly basis to ensure file sizes are kept to a minimum.
