The propulsion system is controlled by an interface between Cat Propulsion and Turner.

One of five programs can be selected from the wheelhouse control station:

• Non-sailing (situation a or b)
• Manoeuvring mode
• Patrol mode
• Towing mode
• Max mode
• Fire Fighting mode : on/off

The next slides show the state and connections of

• Propulsion engines
• Generators
• FiFi pumps
• Gearboxes

during these programs.
