IMPORTANT NOTES

Our new Class B+ transponders need to be programmed/configured using a new updated version of our

proAIS2 software which is not yet on the supplied product CD. Please download the relevant version of our

new proAIS2 software V1.10 from our website

If you intend to permanently connect the AIT2500 to an onboard computer via USB, we recommend using our

NMEA to USB Adaptor cable for extra protection against static discharges and supply voltage spikes.
