IMO: Code on Alerts and Indicators, 2009

The Code on Alerts and Indicators, 2009, is intended to provide general design guidance and to promote uniformity to type, location and priority for alerts and indicators required by the SOLAS Convention, including relevant performance standards, and by the MARPOL Convention, as well as by other associated instruments and codes. The Code will benefit designers and operators by consolidating in one document the references to priorities, aggregation, grouping, locations and types, including colours and symbols, of shipboard alerts and indicators.

This new Code updates, revises and replaces the Code on Alarms and Indicators, 1995.
