A5.2 How to Manage C-MAP charts

A5.2.1 Licensing system used by the C-MAP
The licensing system used with C-MAP is based on serial numbered CD-ROMs and authorisation codes received
from C-MAP Norway A/S. You select either required C-MAP areas or zones and your electronic chart system
generates a operator code based on your selection, the serial number of the serial numbered C-MAP CD-ROM and
the hardware identifier of your electronic chart system. You send the operator code to C-MAP Norway A/S and they
send to you an authorisation code. You enter the received authorisation code into the system then you can load and
convert the CM-93 charts into your system.
A5.2.2 How to get started with C-MAP charts
1. Select automatic conversion into the SENC and setting of Display and Approve update dates automatically. See
section A5.2.8 "Automatic display until setting".
2. Define your subscription of C-MAP charts. See section A5.2.4 "Defining subscription of C-MAP charts".
3. Load C-MAP charts by CD-ROM catalogue. See section A5.2.5 "Loading C-MAP charts from a CD-ROM into
the system".
A5.2.3 How to keep C-MAP charts up to date
At regular intervals C-MAP will reissue its charts to keep them up-to-date. There are neither edition number nor
update number in C-MAP charts, so the system recognises changed charts using issue date of the chart.
The procedure for loading the reissue is the same as loading of the C-MAP charts for the first time. If loaded chart is
already in the hard disk with older issue date, the system loads selected newer chart automatically. Other possible
messages when loading C-MAP charts are explained in the section A5.2.5 "Loading C-MAP charts from a CD-
ROM into the system".
If you get a new release of a C-MAP CD-ROM, do the following:
1. On the Chart menu, turn off automatic SENC conversion and turn on Automatic Display Until.
2. Load C-MAP charts by CD-ROM catalogue. See section A5.2.5 "Loading C-MAP charts from a CD-ROM into
the system".
A5.2.4 How to define subscription of C-MAP charts
Before you can be an authorized operator of C-MAP charts you must do the following:
1. Purchase CD-ROM(s) of C-MAP from your chart agent.
2. Load serial number of C-MAP into the ECDIS.
3. Select charts that you want to use in the ECDIS, by zones or areas.
4. Generate operator code. This code is used to identify your chart folio for the producer of C-MAP.
5. Send operator code to your chart agent.
Based on operator code information, the producer of C-MAP charts is able to generate permission for the charts you
have selected. You will receive an authorization code from the producer of C-MAP charts.
After receiving an authorization code, do the following:
1. Enter authorization code into the ECDIS.
2. Use the function "Load by CD-ROM catalogue" to select which chart to load.
3. Build a group of required C-MAP charts.
4. Load C-MAP charts using the function "View loaded CD-ROM catalogue".
