Raytheon Anschütz Multifunctional Systems (MFS)

Raytheon Anschütz Multifunctional Systems are set up to provide all information for precise, safe and easy operation. The workstations combine and integrate the functions of IMO radar, ECDIS and Conning at one dedicated position. This enables full navigation data access at any place on the integrated bridge. Having a standardized and simple control panel and menu, further contribution is made to a reduced operating stress level on the bridge. 

Raytheon Anschütz Multifunctional Systems (MFS) provides

• Full navigational data access at any workstation
• Easy operation through common operator philosophy
• Easier watch keeping increases safety at sea
• Optimized system functionality when combining main functions, e.g. integrated autopilot operation in radar and ECDIS, track monitoring and overlay of radar, ECDIS and AIS representations
• Additional construction of equipment leads to additional safety
• Easier spare parts logistics through standardized processors and monitors
• Cost savings if less hardware is required (to be checked individually with flag state authorities)
