4 Operation

4.1 General

The NAIS-00 has a limited user interface, consisting of 

a transmit enable/disable switch, (not supplied), and four 

indicators on the top of the unit, they are:

PWR [Green] - Power/GPS Lock Status/Silent Mode

BIIT [Red] - Built In Integrity Test

TX [Yellow] - Transmit

RX [Blue]  -AIS Message Received

4.2 Indicators

At power up, all four LED’s will light continuously for five 

seconds to show that they are working, then they will go 

into the following routines:

PWR

After the initial five seconds the LED will do two short 

flashes and a longer pause before repeating itself. This 

will continue until a GPS position fix is acquired. Once a 

fix has been obtained, the LED will stay on continuously.

If, after a GPS fix, the transmitter has been disabled, 

(Silent Mode), the LED will flash at a rate of one second 

on and one second off.

BIIT (Built In Integrity Test)

The NAIS-00 is constantly monitoring and testing the 

integrity of the AIS transceiver.

After the initial five seconds the LED will go out. Should a 

fault be detected within the unit, the “BIIT” LED will start 

to flash. The flash sequences listed below indicate the 

specific faults:

1 flash - transponder not reponding

 flashes - transmitter fault

 flashes - receiver fault

4 flashes - VHF antenna VSWR fault

5 flashes - no GPS sensor
