Integrated Navigation System
Multi-function Integrated Navigation System
The Mega-Guard Integrated Navigation System (INS) is an advanced system for perfect navigation for ships. Mega-Guard INS is a modular system which can be tailor made based upon ship's navigation requirements. Both IMO compliant and non IMO compliant variants are available to suit all ship navigation applications.
The Mega-Guard Integrated Navigation System is based upon a minimum of three multi-function Operator Workstations.
Mega-Guard INS integrates all bridge navigation equipment and presents the data in an uniform way on the multi-function Operator Workstations.
On each Operator Workstation the following functions are available:
ARPA Radar ECDIS or ECS Conning
Vessel Management System (option) Central Alert Management (option)
2
The Mega-Guard Heading Control System includes an independent Steering Control System as well.
Additional functions such as control of horn, searchlight, anchor and others can be implemented with Navigation Operator Panels.
Mega-Guard INS can be easily extended with the following independent Mega-Guard navigation products:
Heading Control System Propulsion Control System Dynamic Positioning System
BNWAS Watch Alarm System Navigation Light Control Wiper Control System
In addition, Mega-Guard INS can also be integrated with Mega-Guard automation and electric propulsion products:
Energy Management System Electric Propulsion Motor Electric Steerable POD High Power Inverter DC Bus Generator Electric Energy Storage Electric Fin Stabilizer Vessel Management System
Power Management System Fire Alarm System
CCTV Video Distribution Ship Performance Monitor Fleet Management System
IMO and non IMO Integrated Navigation System
The Mega-Guard INS integrates a radar transceiver with corresponding software from either Raytheon
(IMO compliant) or Furuno (non IMO compliant). The radar transceivers from both Raytheon and Furuno are upmast configurations with direct connection to the redundant Ethernet network.

Navigation sensors
The following navigation sensors are typically interfaced to Mega-Guard INS:
The navigation sensors are of black box type and all NMEA data from the sensors is made available on the
redundant Ethernet network. Operator Workstations and Navigation Operator Panels can make use of this data as these are connected to the redundant Ethernet network. Navigation Operator Panels can be installed to reach independent and continuous indication of rudder angle, heading, position, speed, depth and wind in order to fulfill customer and/or IMO requirements. A Navigation Operator Panel is equipped with a 5.7” or 8" touchscreen, with full glass or metal front for intuitive operation and monitoring.

System lay-out and operation
A typical Mega-Guard INS is built-up with the following main components:
Operator Workstations
Navigation sensors and Navigation Operator Panels
A redundant Ethernet network inter-connects all components. Mega-Guard INS is in most cases extended with a Mega-Guard Heading Control System and Mega-Guard Vessel Management System as a minimum.
Mega-Guard INS supports optionally Track Control and/or Cruise Control modes. In addition, CAM functionality in compliance with IMO can be added for an uniform presentation and handling of alarm and alerts.
Operator Workstations are equipped with touchscreen and an integrated marine personal computer with high performance CPU (HP type) and Windows 7 or 10 embedded operating system. Solid state disk is applied and the Operator Workstations are available in high definition touchscreen sizes ranging from 18.5”to 86”.

The INS Integrated Navigation System is applied in all type of ships. Four market segments are distinguished: Workstations can be operated with touchscreen.
In addition to this two types of input devices are available: a Trackpad and Trackball Operator Panel. The Trackpad Panel offers a large trackpad for accurate and easy selection of the required function on the Workstation.
The Trackball Panel is equipped with a trackball for function selection and a keypad is also integrated in this panel.
Commercial ships Mega yachts
Yachts and non IMO ships Navy ships
; IMO version with Raytheon core
; IMO version with Raytheon core
; Non IMO version with Furuno core
; IMO version with Raytheon core and WECDIS
INS Workstations and Operator Panels for mega yachts are delivered with highly esthetic glass fronts and for commercial ships a metal front with integrated pushbuttons is applied. Navy ships require a more robust INS with higher shock and vibration resistance. In addition, navy ships may require added functionality such as WECDIS.
