Begin Register

When you begin the registration, the default page is Register Page. The page header shows the prerequisites in Register topic. Clicking the Edit button allows you to change your selected Muster Station or Lifeboat.

There are three methods to search for a profile - manual search, search with an RFID card, search with a barcode using device camera or supported build-in barcorde scanner such as MICROS Handheld 500.

In addition, different safety mode has a different registration method.

The Analytic summary count provides a summary view of the Registered/Pending Register in the Register page:

  • Registered: the number of profiles registered in the current muster station/lifeboat. Clicking the Registered link will redirect you to the Registered page. See Registered section for more information.

  • Pending: the number of profiles due to register in current muster station/lifeboat. Clicking the Pending link will redirect you to the Pending page. See Pending section for more information.

The Analytic summary count refreshes automatically when the below activity takes place in the Register page:

  • page navigation to Register page

  • browser refresh

  • editing the profile type from Profile Type field

  • clicking the Search button

  • selecting any record in the Profile listing

  • tapping the RFID card

Note:

The summary count presented varies depending on the parameter value in General - Use Resident. If the value is set to 1’, this would include the resident count in the analytic summary.

Note:

Captain or Crew Officer can update Safety Mode from dashboard or other module like OHC Administration.

When performing an action on the Register page and the safety mode field value on the page is outdated, a prompt ‘Current safety mode changed to <SAFETY MODE>’ appears.

If the current Safety Mode is updated when you select Register menu, it will redirect you to the Register selection page with an updated safety mode value.
