Guide to ECDIS Harmonization Steps

This document provides steps to solve harmonization problems between multiple ECDIS units on a vessel: 1) Check the sync configuration in the "Sync Config" menu to ensure all ECDIS units are grouped together correctly. 2) Check the sync status in the "Sync Status" menu and look for potential issues like all units showing as "must send" or "must receive". 3) If sync status shows an error or harmonization problems exist, reset the status, restart all units, and manually initiate a sync from the ECDIS with the most up-to-date charts.
