Vessel proximity alert
This section allows configuration of the text message to be transmitted on detection of
vessel breaching a defined radius (or guard ring) around the transceiver. This message can
be used to warn approaching vessels of potential collision with the AtoN. The addressed
message is automatically sent to all vessels that breach the guard ring radius.
The available vessel proximity alert actions are:
• Disable message #12 - the vessel proximity alert function is disabled
• Enable message #12 - the function is enabled and the text content of the message
to be transmitted must be defined in the ‘Message text’ box. The guard ring radius
for the proximity alert must also be configured in the ‘Radius’ box; note that the
value is set in metres.
In addition to configuration of the vessel proximity alert a schedule for the associated
message must be configured in the ‘Message schedule’ tab.
• Message #12 Index 2 must be configured if the message #12 action is selected
.
