Constraintsin the maritime operations sector are numerous for on-board computer equipment. The computing embedded in maritime structures must comply with many requirements based on screen visibility, cybersecurity, shock & vibration, ingress protection, and so forth.
In searching for your next marine display or marine PC to be deployed on your naval vessel you may have come across numerous certifications showing compliance with DNV GL and various IEC standards.
Applications throughout the vessel such as in the bridge, control room or engine room will define whether particular certifications or environmental specifications to withstand the elements are required.
Based on a merger between DNV (Det Norske Veritas) and GL (Germanischer Lloyd) the standard has been in place since the 2013. The DNV certificate is considered a high-quality seal, certifying the suitability of a Marine Display, Marine Panel PC, or Marine Computer for use in the oceanic sector.
The International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) is an organization that provides technical support and advice to promote the safety of people, property and the environment through verification of compliance with technical and engineering standards for the design, construction and life-cycle maintenance of ships, offshore units and other sea-related facilities.
IEC 61174 is an ECDIS display standard for charting and navigation stations. ECDIS displays are color calibrated and typically equipped with the ability to switch between modes for day, dusk and night-time operation.

The monitor offers durability for use in harsh maritime environments, complying with the conditions for temperature, humidity, and vibration as defined in the IEC 60945 international standard for maritime navigation and radio communication equipment and systems. IP65 rating ensures they can withstand dust ingress and is protected against low-pressure water jets. A coating is applied to make the electronic substrates moisture-proof and the cooling fan is easily accessible for exchanging purposes.
The monitor is equipped with an LED backlight. Compared to conventional CCFL backlights, LED backlights last longer and consume less power. The monitor is also mercury-free for minimal impact on the environment.
Backlight brightness, gamma, and RGB color settings are calibrated at the factory so each monitor achieves accurate color reproduction for meeting the highly specialized requirements of ECDIS systems. The monitor meets IEC 61174, IEC 62288, and IEC 62388 international standards for ECDIS and RADAR applications.
The VA panel features wide viewing angles that minimize changes in contrast and gradation to maintain excellent visibility when the screen is viewed from the side. An AR coating is applied to reduce the amount of reflections on the screen for a clear display.
Optional optical bonding is available for the monitor. Optical bonding significantly reduces reflective light for high visibility even when the screen is viewed in direct sunlight. A screen with optical bonding is also more resistant to applied pressure, giving it increased physical durability.
NOAA is currently working to develop standard formatting rules under which Print on Demand Charts derived from ENC data will meet safety of navigation requirements. Until such time as ENC Paper Chart Policy has been more fully developed, POD charts derived from ENC data are not approved for primary means of navigation and should be considered a situational awareness tool.
7 According to SOLAS regulation V/18, ECDIS units on board ships must be
type-approved. Type approval is the certification process that ECDIS equipment must
undergo before it can be considered as complying with IMO performance standards. The
process is carried out by flag Administration-accredited type-approval organizations or marine
classification societies in accordance with the relevant test standards developed by, inter alia,
the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) (e.g. IEC 61174).
ECS are Electronic Chart Systems that electronically display the real-time vessel position and relevant nautical chart data and information from the ECS Database on a display screen, but do not meet all of the IMO requirements for ECDIS and are not intended to satisfy the SOLAS Chapter V requirement to carry a navigational chart.
Backlight brightness, gamma, and RGB color settings are calibrated at the factory so the monitor achieves accurate color reproduction for meeting the highly specialized requirements of ECDIS systems. The monitor meets IEC 61174, IEC 62288, and IEC 62388 international standards for ECDIS systems and radar applications.
Suitable for day and night operation: Thanks to the wide dimming range from less than 1 cd/m2 to 590 cd/m2, the monitor is ideally suited to changing light conditions. This means that the brightness of the monitor can be optimally configured for all ambient lighting and can be used without problems even in dark rooms.
The VA panel with wide viewing angle ensures that the contrast hardly falls when viewing the screen from any angle and there are only minimal differences in color. This means that exact color rendering and clear images can be achieved even in the corners of the screen.
The monitor is flicker-free at every brightness setting. This is great for users, as their eyes will not tire as quickly, allowing them to work in front of the screen for longer periods of time without fatigue.
EIZO grants a three-year warranty. This is possible thanks to the highly developed production process based on a simple principle of success: sophisticated and innovative technology, made from high-end materials.
The FDS1904 is produced in a socially responsible way. It is free of child labour and forced labour. Suppliers along the supply chain have been carefully selected and they have also committed themselves to produce in a socially responsible way. This applies in particular to conflict minerals. We present a detailed report about our social responsibility annually and voluntarily.
Each FDS1904 is manufactured in our own factory, which implements an environmental and energy management system in accordance with ISO 14001 und ISO 50001. This includes measures to reduce waste, wastewater and emissions, resource and energy consumption, as well as to encourage environmentally conscious behavior among employees. We publicly report on these measures on an annual basis.
The FDS1904 is designed to have a long service life and normally outlasts the warranty period by some distance. Replacement parts are available many years after production has ceased. The entire lifecycle takes into account the impact on the environment as the longevity of the product and the fact it can be repaired saves resources and protects the environment. When designing the FDS1904, we took a minimalistic approach to our resources by using high-quality components and materials, as well as a careful production process.
Casing
Remove marks by wiping the casing with a soft cloth, which you have previously moistened with a mild cleaning agent. Never spray wax or cleaning agents directly on to the casing. (The manual contains exact details.)
LCD display
Where necessary, the monitor surface may be cleaned using a soft cloth (for example a cotton cloth or glasses cloth). Stubborn marks can generally be removed by wetting the cloth with a bit of water to increase the cleaning strength.
Digital signal encryption system as copy protection for digital contents, for example for videos, music, etc. The transmission of digital contents is protected as the contents are encrypted on the transmitter's side, sent via a DVI output and once again decrypted on the recipient's side. Digital contents may not be reproduced if both the transmitter and recipient device do not support HDCP.
Screens have millions of pixels, which each have a surface area of less than a hundredth of a square millimeter. These elements may have defects, which are expressed by them being constantly lit or unlit. Visibility is fundamentally dependent on the surrounding area. For example, lit elements are almost invisible in a bright environment. Each LCD screen is unique in terms of pixel errors.
To give you a clear statement about what frequency of pixel errors EIZO deems tolerable, EIZO screen models are tested according to internationally recognized standards. On average the actual levels are in fact far below the tolerances across all of the devices. LCD modules that do not meet these requirements are not used at EIZO. Depending on the model, EIZO monitors have a zero pixel error guarantee for completely illuminated sub-pixels (partial pixels ISO 9241-307). Valid: six months from the purchase date.
