APT and Service Tool by Danelec Marine A/S is a technician-focused application that streamlines Annual Performance Tests (APT) and service tasks for Danelec voyage data recorders (VDR/S-VDR) and related shipboard systems. It offers guided APT workflows aligned with IMO requirements, real-time system status, automated data collection, and standardized reporting—helping ensure compliance while minimizing vessel downtime.

The software supports configuration backup and restore and controlled software or firmware updates, maintaining a clear audit trail of actions taken on board.
Upon completion of service, the tool generates professional APT reports and service documentation populated with vessel and equipment details, test results, timestamps, and supporting evidence—ready to share with shipowners, class, and flag authorities.
