ATIS code The ATIS code (Automatic Transmitter Identification System) is used
for identification to marine coast and inland stations and its use is
mandatory in a number of European inland waterways such as e.g.
the river Rhine. Like the MMSI number the ATIS number is issued by
the relevant authority.
ATIS for foreign leisure crafts: For ships coming from states which
are not member of the Regional Arrangement the ATIS-Code is
based on the MMSI with a 9 as the first digit.
a
Note: The ATIS number can be programmed once. If a wrong
number has been entered and stored, or if there is a requirement to
change it, contact your authorized dealer.

RAINWAT arrangement.
