3.6 Connection to an NMEA2000 network (optional)
The AIS transceiver can be connected to an NMEA2000 network by a suitable
NMEA2000 network cable available from your local dealer. If your vessel has
an NMEA2000 network please refer to the relevant documentation for your
NMEA2000 equipment. Once connected, and with your chart plotter also
connected you will be able to receive AIS targets on your chart plotter. A list of
supported PGNs is provided at the rear of this document.
3.7 USB Connection
An optional USB cable is available for connection to a PC or Mac. The USB
connector can be connected directly to the USB port on the PC or Mac via the
optional USB cable. To enable connection of the AIS transceiver to a PC the
USB drivers, supplied on the product CD, must first be installed. Driver
installation is typically not required for use with a Mac.
To install the drivers please follow the steps below:
1. Insert the CD into the PC and navigate to the USB drivers folder.
2. Double click on the setup.exe file to launch the installer.
3. Follow the on screen installation instructions to complete installation.
4. Once installed the AIS unit can be connected to the PC. The USB drivers
will be installed automatically and the AIS will appear as a new COM port
device.
5. Select the AIS COM port and a baud rate of 38,400 in PC based navigation
software to make use of the AIS data.
If the USB connection is removed from the PC or Mac during use
you must reset the connection before further use. To reset the
connection, disconnect then reapply power to the AIS before
closing and relaunching any PC or Mac applications using the
USB connection. Finally, reconnect the USB cable between the
PC or Mac and the AIS transceiver
3.8 Turning the AIS transceiver on
The AIS transceiver does not have an On / Off switch and will operate
immediately that power is applied to the unit.
