AISnet Quick Start Guide
Configuring the AISnet Network Settings
Download and install the latest AISnet Configuration Tool (from the Digital Yacht website). When you run this program,
y
ou should see the window shown in Fig 1. Click the “search” icon and the program will search for the AIS Base Station.
After the search is complete, you should see the Mac Address of the Base Station in the top of the Board List
–
see Fig 2.
Click “Close” and ensure the IP Configuration Method is
set to “DHCP”, operation mode is set to “Mixed” and that
the IP address and Port given to you by the On-Line AIS
service are correctly set in the Server IP and Port boxes.
Refer to Fig 3 for guidance but your IP addresses and
Port numbers will probably be different.
Once you are sure that all of the settings have been set
correctly, click the “Setting” icon and your settings
will be
copied in to the AIS Base Station memory.
Now check the website of the on-line AIS service that you
wish to send AIS data to. The example below is for
Marine Traffic but each service should have a page
where you can check that your data is being received.
