(SVDR). The purpose of the SVDR is to assist investigators in identifying the causes of maritime casualty, and to use the data for future incident prevention.

The VR3000S stores recorded information in both a Protective Storage Module (DRU), and in a secondary backup Hard Disk Drive for easy post incident retrieval. A convenient SAVE button located on the Remote Alarm Panel allows the crew to immediately preserve up to 4 incidents for review by an investigating authority, while the system continues to record normally.

Recorded data is easily replayed in a Graphical Presentation using LivePlayer V4 for incident investigation as well as for educational, briefing and training purposes.

Information ranging from vessels position, speed, heading, bridge audio, communication audio and radar images is quickly and easily configured for recording in serial, digital and analog formats.

6-Gigabyte Versus 9-Gigabyte DRU

As standard supply, the VR3000S includes the VR5020/6G (6 Gigabyte) DRU, which allows the recording of Image Data from the primary radar. When the recording of a secondary Radar Image or ECDIS is desired, the larger VR5020/9G (9 Gigabyte) DRU is available as an upgrade option.
