GENERAL WARNINGS 

All marine Automatic Identification System (AIS) units utilize a satellite based 
system such as the Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) network or the Global 
Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) network to determine position. The 
accuracy of these networks is variable and is affected by factors such as the 
antenna positioning, how many satellites are used to determine a position and 
how long satellite information has been received for. Therefore, it is desirable 
wherever possible to verify both your vessels AIS derived position data and other 
vessels AIS derived position data with visual or radar based observations.  
The easyTRX2 software is intended for use as an installation and configuration 
tool. The application is not a navigation tool and should not be used as such.
