To configure the transponder all of the data fields must be completed and saved to the AIS.
WARNING: Per FCC rules (United States users only) the static data of the vessel cannot be changed once
programmed. Do not program the static data unless you are certain you have the correct information. Please
check the number entered carefully. If the static data programmed is incorrect the AIS transponder will need to
be returned to ACR Electronics for factory reset.
Enter the vessel
‟s information in the appropriate box:
Ship's name - enter the name of the vessel (20 characters maximum)
Call Sign - enter the vessel's radio call sign (7 characters maximum) (If your local authority does not require
a call sign number, enter @@@@@@@)
MMSI number - enter the vessel's Maritime Mobile Service Identity number
Enter the vessel
‟s dimensions as follows rounded to the nearest meter
o
Dimension A - distance from bow to GPS antenna location to the nearest meter
o
Dimension B - distance from the GPS antenna location to the stern to the nearest meter
o
Dimension C - distance from the port side to the GPS antenna location to the nearest meter
o
Dimension D - distance from the GPS antenna to the starboard side to the nearest meter
Select the most appropriate vessel type from the drop down menu
CAUTION:
If no MMSI is entered then the AIS transponder will operate in receive only mode and the red
LED will remain on. The vessel
‟s own position will not be transmitted. An MMSI must be entered to allow the AIS
transponder to transmit its own position to other vessels.
When you have entered all of the vessel's data, double-check what you have entered for accuracy, then click
the 'Save to Nauticast-B' button to program this configuration into the AIS transponder:
A warning will be displayed asking you to verify the MMSI number. The static data (including the MMSI) can only
be changed by ACR Electronics once programmed into the transponder. Please check that the number
displayed is correct before proceeding. If the number is incorrect click the 'No' button to cancel programming of
the MMSI.
