clarify about automation
The ship's systems are protected by stringent design standards and tolerance, redundancy, especially in critical systems, and processes of feedback (feedback) , which eventually trigger an alarm of some sort, or take corrective action.
Its effectiveness and reliability will be indefinite if not properly adjusted, monitored regularly and maintained properly, these are tasks that, in most cases, must be carried out by the human factor of any of these systems, ie, by the ocean(ALERT! Issue 9)
is the technological revolution that has changed the way people and systems interact with others and / or other systems. In the maritime industry, the human element in the relationship humano-máquina/sistema is becoming an endangered species, partly because we are evolving towards smaller crews, but mostly due to increased automation .
Automation should make life easier for the ocean and make operations safer, but if an automatic system does not "fit well withits purpose "or not properly adjusted, revised regularly or properly maintained can lead to an accident, as they have already identified several reports of accidents.
Automation can also be detrimental to the perception of the situation and the gut feeling that something is not quite right. In addition, automation can change the role of an operator in a monitor.
can also lead to a plethora of alarms, which can be distracting, cause confusion or be ignored by those who are not aware of its origins and implications, thereby negating the purpose of communicating importantbear or failures in software programming. It can also result in failures in following an appropriate approach in the design and construction of a ship and its systems, failure in achieving the user's needs and to follow the design principles focused on human factors, failing to provide adequate training and operating and maintenance instructions easily understood by the operator.

The owner must therefore be proportional to the yard clear and prescriptive specifications of what is needed in terms of automation and alarms. Must take into account both the operation and maintenance of each system, and give formal
