To program an MMSI with the Onboard App
Before an M1 can transmit your position over AIS you must
configure your vessel details and enter a valid MMSI number.
You can configure your MMSI using the Cortex Onboard App or a
Cortex handset.
Your MMSI may have been entered by your dealer. You must have
an assigned MMSI for your vessel.
If you do not have an assigned MMSI, contact the relevant
authority in your country.
Once you save the MMSI number you cannot change it. If you
need to change the MMSI, please contact an authorized dealer or
Vesper Marine.
