Managing Permits From An Renc - Furuno FCR-2107 Series Operator's Manual

7.6.4

Managing permits from an RENC

Permits are used to control the right to use a chart in the chart radar. A permit in an RENC ENC service is connected
to an edition of a chart. Permits are issued in different types:
• Subscription permit: This type of permit includes updates for subsequent 12 months.
• One-Off permit: This type of permit includes only updates up to the issue date of the permit.
The expiry date of a permit controls the loading of base charts and their updates to the chart radar. The chart radar
will warn you when you are loading charts or updates which are issued less than 30 days before the expiration date
of a permit. If a permit has expired, it is impossible to load a chart or its update which was issued after the expiration
date of the permit. The user has a right to view a chart forever, but it will not complete the requirements for having
up-to-date charts. To view the Chart Permits window, open the Chart menu and choose Chart Permits.
