by admin

VSTEP 12 NOV 2015Rotterdam,  November 12th 2015 – Maritime simulator developer VSTEP has received DNV-GL accreditation for their recently introduced new generation of GMDSS Simulators.  This certification is the latest addition to VSTEP’s range of DNV-GL certified NAUTIS maritime simulators as its GMDSS, Dynamic Positioning, Tug and Class A FMB simulators are now all fully DNV-GL certified for training in accordance with STCW and IMO requirements.

The new NAUTIS GMDSS Simulators by VSTEP come in two possible setups, a full hardware version or a virtual GMDSS system with touchscreens.

The GMDSS simulator is based on the latest in software technology and built in cooperation with professional mariners. It includes some new features not previously available in the market, including showing four GMDSS peripherals (out of a possible 13) on screen simultaneously and the option to connect multiple handsets to the simulator.
