AIS setup
¼
Note:
This section relates to systems using the NRS-2 blackbox only.
The NRS-2 blackbox radio is equipped with an AIS CLASS-B CS transceiver that can receive information
from other vessels transmitting AIS data and transmit your own vessel’s AIS data.
¼
Note:
A separate VHF/AIS antenna must be installed and connected to the AIS Antenna socket on the
blackbox. Refer to “Wiring” on page 66 for the installation details.
AIS function
Select the checkbox to enable AIS functionality. When enabled, the AIS symbol is displayed as follows:
•
AIS receive only mode.
•
AIS Class-B transmit and receive mode.

Note:
This function is also available as a Shortcut.
When viewing the AIS plotter screen, AIS targets can be displayed with the vessels NAME or the vessels
MMSI.
CPA
Set the Closest Point of Approach (CPA) distance for CPA ALARM.
CPA is the minimum distance between you and a target vessel calculated on the current speed and
course. You can set the minimum distance in 0.1 NM increments between 0.1 NM to 25.1 NM.
¼
Note:
You must have CPA ALARM set to ON in the ALARMS menu to be alerted. If set to OFF, there will
be no CPA alarms regardless of the above settings.
TCPA
Set the Time to Closest Point of Approach (TCPA) interval. TCPA is the minimum time to reach the CPA
distance before the CPA alarm is activated. You can set the minimum time in 30 seconds increments
between 1 MIN to 30 MIN.
Config Vessel
Enter vessel static data details to be transmitted by AIS. The NRS-2 will enter Class-B transmit mode once
the minimum requirement of an MMSI number is enter
ed and a valid GPS fix is obtained
. Transmitted data
at this stage will be: MMSI, LAT, LON, SOG, COG and HDG if available.
