#Electronic bookreader license#
License Top-up: Where a ship no longer has an available back-up license on board (because the back-up license has been used or the respective computer crashed or was replaced), it must make provision to obtain a replacement back-up license to comply with flag State guidance as outlined above. For further details refer to your own flag State, or check with the guidance provided in the Letters of Recognition section below. While some clarification may be required from the flag State, if a licence is installed on a further ‘back-up’ PC, the ‘back-up’ license must be either capable of being activated within a period of time specified by the flag State or installed on at least one additional computer that is connected at all times to both the main and the emergency sources of power. Ref: MSC-MEPC Circular Licensing: eBooks are sold on the basis of 1 Main and 1 Back-up License. In any case, the media should be treated in accordance with the document control procedures in the ship’s SMS including procedures for timely update. A medium could either contain a publication or as many publications as possible.
