Dedicated computer
Professional use of PC-Navigo (in particular the ENC charts and AIS data) causes a considerable work load for the computer. We recommend the use of a “dedicated computer” for PC-Navigo, on which no or few other programs are run. In situations in which the information generated by PC-Navigo is vital for a safe navigation, such a dedicated computer is the best guarantee for a performance without interruptions or surprises. Often the conflicts with other software, or with other com port users, are the cause of malfunctions of PC-Navigo.
