Note: 

Tests were performed by using the RGB signal (VGA) port with an interconnection cable (VGA – 

VGA; 5.0 m) for Capax-PC “RS4 v.2” with motherboard type D945GNT/D945GTP and 

“onboard” graphics using “intel 945G express “chip set. 

Tests were performed by using the RGB signal (DVI) port with an interconnection cable (DVI – 

DVI; 1.8 m) for test PC with graphics card “Matrox millenium G550“. 

The back-light brightness is adjustable either with brightness knob in front of the panel or via 

remote control with RS232 interface. 

The applied test standard IEC 61174, Edition 2 refers to IHO S-52, Appendix 2 “Colours & 

Symbols specification for ECDIS” as normative reference. This publication specifies under 

regulation 5.2.3 the colour conversion and tolerances tests as follows: 

“The CIE L*u*v* human perception colour model, which is the source of the tolerances 

described above has not yet been evaluated at the low luminance of the night colour table, at 

which the less colour-sensitive rods of the human eye take over from the daytime cones. 

Consequently these tolerances should not be applied to the night table, and for type approval 

purposes they are restricted to bright sun table.” 

Due to this statement, IEC 61174, Edition 2 does specify instrumental verification for “brightsun” 

colour table (DAY) only and this requirement has been taken into account for the test 

performed and documented in this report. All other colour tables defined by IHO S-52, 

Appendix 2 have been validated by subjective tests only, based on instrumental calibration 

and verification procedure as for the “DAY” colour table. 

The equipment under test fulfilled the applying requirements for colour presentation at the 

time that the tests have been performed. However, no assumptions can be made today about 

the possible colour shifts due to the ageing of the monitor in use. If such colour shifts will be 

observed later during operation, a re-calibration according to IHO S-52, Appendix 2 has to be 

carried out for the individual monitor.

Operational checks

with the specific requirements as detailed below. 

The checks carried out shall be described and 

the results noted in the test report. 

IEC 60945 

6.1.1 General 

2 b) A check shall be made that all modes of 

operation required by the equipment standard are 

available, and that they may be controlled over 

the required range. Use shall be made of every 

position of every control provided to ensure that it 

performs the function for which it is identified and 

that it operates in the expected manner. 

IEC 60945 

6.1.2. Design of control facilities 

3 a) Check that the number of operational controls, 

their design and manner of function, location, 

arrangement and size provide for simple, quick 

and effective operation of the EUT. Check that 

the controls are logically grouped according to 

their function. 

4 b) Check that the shape and size of each control is 

appropriate to its mode of operation. In the case 

of trackballs, joysticks and mice check that the 

controller can produce any combination of x and 

y axis output values and that the controller does 

not drive the follower off the edge of the screen. 

In the case of joysticks, check that there is a 

“home position” with a capability for a return to 

that point. 

5 c) In the case of touch screens check that the 

dimension of the response area for a push to 

activate operation is a minimum of 15 mm height 

and width and the force required for operation is 

a maximum of 1,5 N where applicable.

the maximum expected rate of change of 

information. Analogue presentation is generally 

more suited to rapid change than digital. 

7 e) Check that rotating controls and indicators turn 

clockwise for increased function. 

8 f) Check that linear controls and indicators move 

upwards or to the right for increased value or 

effect. 

9 g) Check that where users must rapidly discern 

directional change, digital displays are provided 

with indications of directions of change. 

10 h) Check that equipment elements relating to 

control, and indicators associated with control, 

are readily distinguishable from elements provided 

for other functions, such as equipment setup. 

IEC 60945 

6.1.3 Operation (see 4.2.1.3) 

11 a (1) Check that all operational controls permit normal 

adjustments to be easily performed, and are 

arranged in a manner that minimises the chance 

of inadvertent operation. 

12 a (2) Check that controls not required for normal 

operation and which may affect performance are 

not readily accessible. 

13 b) Check all operational controls and indications 

for ease of use and correctness, and for general 

suitability related to their function and environment, 

for example expected ambient illumination 

and sound. 

14 c) Check that the operation of a control does not 

cause obscuration of its related indicator where 

observation of the indicator is necessary for 

making the adjustment. 

15 d) Check that in all operations there is a clearly 

marked or consistent simple action to recover 

from a mistaken choice or to leave an unwanted 

state. Check that it is always possible for a user 

to start, interrupt, resume and end an operation.

Remarks: 

The applied test standard IEC 61174, Edition 2 refers to IHO S-52, Appendix 2 "Colours & Symbols specification 

for ECDIS" as normative reference. This publication specifies under regulation 5.2.3 the colour conversion and 

tolerances tests as follows: 

"The CIE L*u*v* human perception colour model, which is the source of the tolerances described above, has not 

yet been evaluated at the low luminance of the night colour table, at which the less colour-sensitive rods of the 

human eye take over from the daytime cones. Consequently these tolerances should not be applied to the night 

table, and for type approval purposes they are restricted to bright sun table." 

Due to this statement, IEC 61174, Edition 2 does specify instrumental verification for “bright sun” colour table 

(DAY) only and this requirement has been taken into account for the test performed. 

This annex contains the protocol of measurements for colour calibration performed for colour table DAY as the 

significant one to state compliance with IEC 61174, Edition 2. 

However, in order to get orientation about the deviations from the colour specifications for CRT-monitors 

contained in IHO S-52, Appendix 2, additional measurements for colour calibrations are performed for the 

following colour tables: 

- Dusk 

- Night 

Deviations from the requirements of IHO S-52, Appendix 2 for these colour tables are noted as conclusion for 

each individual colour table measurement suite performed. Note that these deviations does not degrade the 

compliance of the monitor characteristics of the equipment under test with the requirements of IEC 61174, 

Edition 2.
