Step 7 - Connection to an NMEA2000 network (optional)
The AIS transceiver can be connected to an NMEA2000 network by
a suitable NMEA2000 network cable available from your local dealer.
If your vessel has an NMEA2000 network, please refer to the relevant
documentation for your NMEA2000 equipment. Once connected,
and with your chartplotter also connected to your NMEA2000 net-
work, you will be able to receive AIS targets on your chartplotter.
Step 8 - USB Connection (optional)
The AIS transceiver is supplied with a USB port for connection to a
PC or Mac. The USB connector can be connected directly to the USB
port on the PC or Mac via the supplied USB cable. To enable con-
nection of the AIS transceiver to a PC, the USB drivers (supplied on
the product CD) must first be installed. Driver installation is typically
not required for use with a Mac.
To install the drivers, please follow the steps below:
1.
Insert the product CD into the PC and navigate to the USB driver’s folder.
2.
Double-click on the setup.exe file to launch the installer.
3.
Follow the on-screen installation instructions to complete the installation.
4.
Once installed, the AIS unit can be connected to the PC. The USB drivers
will be installed automatically and the AIS will appear as a new COM port
device.
5.
Select the AIS COM port and a baud rate of 38,400 in PC based navigation
