19-8 Setup > AIS
Note:
This feature requires an AIS receiver.
There are multiple methods to filter AIS vessels
that are displayed onto the charts.
Filter by Type
Vessel types that are not selected will be filtered
off the chart. Default is set to all types enabled
allowing all vessels to be displayed on the chart.
Filter by distance
Vessels outside the radius selected from our
current position are filtered off the chart. Default
value is set to 300 nm allowing all vessels to be
displayed on the chart within that distance.
Filter by speed
Vessels with speed below the value selected
are filtered off the charts. Default is set to 0 nm
allowing all vessels to be displayed onto the
chart.
Show Dangerous Only
Show only vessels that have a TCPA/CPA below
the trigger values. This filter will override any
other filter option.
Dangerous Vessel Alarm
When enabled an alarm will activate when
both the TCPA and CPA are less than the trigger
values.
Note:
Even when this setting is disabled the
dangerous vessels will still be indicated on the
chart.
