That means that all AIS-Messages (received and transmitted) together
with the GPS-Information will be saved.
You can analyze this data with special software. So you can see your
ship and all other vessels around.
Please use SD-Card with a capacity from 1 to 2 GB. Higher capacity is not
supported. We recommend SD-Cards from "SanDisk " for best
compatibility. (SD-Cards without SPI-Mode cannot be used with
easyTRX2).
With a 2GB SD-Card you will be able to save 100 days of AIS-Data. ( e. g.
Rotterdam, in areas with less traffic you can save more information.)
The only thing you have to do is insert the SD-Card into your TRX2. The
device will start logging data automatically.

CPA Alert
“CPA Alert” tab gives the possibility to configure parameters, which
trigger the alarm. CPA means “Closest Point of Approach” to a ship
transmitting AIS data.
The easyTRX2 (-IS) has a built in feature which calculates the CPA with
every received AIS target.
You’re able to set a safety radius around your ship. If a ship enters this
radius within the given time limit, the CPA alarm occurs. You can change
the parameters "CPA radius" and "CPA time limit" and configure the
easyTRX2 by pressing the button “Program”. By pressing “Read” you can
see the current settings. After power cycle these settings will remain.
The CPA alarm can be disabled and enabled by pressing the button
"CPA-Alarm ON/OFF" and then "Program". When the button is high-
lighted and shows the text "CPA-Alarm ON", then the CPA Alarm func-
tion is active.
