Virtual Engine Room PC Maritime http://www.pcmaritime.co.uk Virtual Engine Room 4.5 PC-Based Engineroom Simulator Virtual Engine Room 4.5 is a PC-based full mission simulator with two-screen support. It is the first ”speaking” engineroom simulator in the world. VER4 has been developed to comply with: • STCW Code: Section A-1/12 & Section B-1/12 • ISM Code: Section 6 & Section 8 The main educational tasks which can be accomplished with VER4: • Learning typical ship's engineroom operating routines with the support of integrated checklists • Ship's engineroom operation training. The user will be able to accomplish any operational task starting from pre-prepared or previously saved exercises. • Training in corrective action when faults occur. Different faults can be mixed in the run-time or loaded from disk. • Standardised assessment divided into several tests. These unique assessments have been approved by an international group of simulator experts. Competence is measured in penalty points and can be compared with other student results.

Virtual Engine Room PC Maritime VER4.5 simulates the following systems: • Main engine (2 stroke, low speed, 7 cylinders, fixed pitch propeller) • VIT simulation, exhaust emission control • Main engine remote control system (manual from CR, automated from the bridge & emergency control at the engine side) • Fuel system (MDO and HFO, including storage system and separators) • Lubricating system (LO circulation and separator, LO storage, stern tube lubrication) • Cooling system (sea water and fresh water central cooling) • Compressed air system • Sewage treatment plant • Sludge and garbage...

Virtual Engine Room PC Maritime Computer Aided Assessment (CAA) is fully integrated with the simulator and can be used for a quick check while operating the engine room or for assessment and competency verification. VER4.5 can co-operate with another PC connected in a local area network. This second PC can be used as an instructor terminal enabling online monitoring of student activities, fault simulation and telegraph communication between a bridge and an engine room. Control panels include very realistic, animated virtual controls like switches, gauges and lamps. The control panels...

Virtual Engine Room PC Maritime The green Checklist window shows instructions relevant to the selected checklist. The appropriate system window will always open when a new checklist step is shown in the checklist window. The control lamp, switch or gauge specified in the checklist “blinks” in order to make it easier to identify. The Assessment window includes: • • • A full list of errors with related penalty points The total number of penalty points The final result (passed or failed) The Fault Simulation window contains a list of all available simulations and their status, which can be...
