How to check synchronization status

You can check chart synchronization status on the [Sync Status] dialog box. Chart
synchronization operations also are available from this dialog box. Normally, chart
synchronization is done automatically, according to the sync settings on the [Sync
Config] dialog box. Use the [Sync Status] dialog box to manually synchronize chart
data when there is network failure, for example.
Get into the Chart maintenance mode. On the InstantAccess bar, click [System] fol-
lowed by [Sync Status] to show the [Sync Status] dialog box.
[Current Status]: Displays current synchronization status. The table below shows all
the synchronization status messages.

[Update] button: Click this button to update [Current Status].
[Enable Sync] button: Enables synchronization. You are asked, "Do you want to en-
able sync?" Click the [OK] button to enable synchronization. Synchronization is al-
ways enabled when ECDIS starts.
[Disable Sync] button: Disables synchronization function temporarily. Use this fea-
ture to enable chart administration in case of network failure, for example. You are
asked, "Do you want to disable sync?" Click the [OK] button to temporarily disable syn-
chronization.
Note: In normal operation do not disable synchronization. If you accidentally disable
synchronization, reinstall all ECDIS then use the [Urge Sync] button to synchronize all
processor units.
[Urge Sync] button: Does immediate synchronization. You are asked, "Chart data in
other units will be overwritten by this unit. Do you wish to continue?" Click the [OK]
button to synchronize.
[Reset Status] button: Reset synchronization status to recover from synchronization
status conflict. You are asked, "Do you want to reset sync status? This unit may be
synchronized from the other unit." Click the [OK] button to reset.
Synchronization is disabled.
