This standard is based on IMO Resolution A.694 (17) and specifies the requirements and type testing which can be applied, for those aspects which are common to all such equipment, to: a) shipborne radio equipment forming part of the global maritime distress and safety system and b) electronic navigational aids required to be carried on board ships, by Regulation 12 of Chapter V of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) of 1974, as amended, and to other navigational aids, where appropriate. The requirements of this standard are not intended to prevent the use of new techniques, provided the facilities offered are not inferior to those stated. Minimum performance standards and methods of testing and required test results are established for those general requirements which can be applied to all equipment described above. Where a requirement in an equipment standard is different from this standard, the requirement in the equipment standard shall take precedence. The clause numbering of IMO Resolution A.694 (17) is indicated in brackets and all clauses whose meanings are identical to those in that resolution are printed in italics.
