Reception on an AIS-SART compliant AIS
transponder
The reception/visibility requirement on an AIS-SART compliant transponder
is as follows:
There shall be a separate menu item in the AIS to activate reception of the
AIS-SART in TEST.
Jotron TR-8000:
Advanced - VHF Link/Long range – Display SART in test mode
Furuno FA-150 implementation – USER SETTINGS – DISP SART TEST = ON
When this function is activated:
AIS-SART will be shown on top of the list with the vessel name SART TEST
since this is an emergency product to show ships/people in distress
(Normally, this list is sorted, but AIS-SART has higher priority than normal
vessels).
AIS-SART will be show with ID code, range, bearing and position. In
addition, a text message will be received.
