5.1 Using the AIS transceiver
Once the unit has been configured it is ready for use. Providing other vessels with AIS transceivers
installed are within radio range of your vessel you should see their details appear on your chart plotter
or PC. These vessels will also be able to see your vessel on their chart plotter or PC. It may take up to
six minutes for your full vessel details to be visible to others.
Specific details of how to configure your chart plotter to make use of the AIS transceiver features will
be given in your chart plotter manual. If you are using charting software running on a PC, please refer
to the instructions provided with your chart plotting software for details of how to configure it to display
AIS information.
5.2 Switch functions
When connected to the AIS transceiver following the instructions in section 3.2 an external switch
provides the ability to set the AIS transceiver into 'silent mode'. In silent mode the transmission of your
own vessel position ceases, whilst the reception of other vessel's AIS position continues. You should
use silent mode if you do not wish your vessel data to be received by other AIS devices. When silent
mode is active the blue indicator will be illuminated.
When silent mode is active other vessels will not be able to receive your vessel
information on their AIS devices.
Your navigational safety may be compromised as a
result.
5.3 Using proAIS2 with your AIS transceiver
The proAIS2 tool has a range of features to help monitor the performance of your AIS transceiver. To
use the full range of features your AIS transceiver must be installed as described in section 3 and
connected to a PC running the proAIS2 application. Follow the instructions provided in the help menu
within proAIS2.
