Channel Management is used to configure
different radio channels for different chart zones.
Maximum 8 zones can be configured by input. A
zone is defined by the latitude and longitude of its
upper right (UR) corner and lower left (LL)
corner. When configured, the dedicated AIS
frequencies will automatically be used by the
system when the vessel position is inside the
geographically defined area. The main menu has
three options for channel management, which are
described in the following.
