13.2 AIS OPERATION
The
GX2200
is equipped with an AIS receiver and can display AIS targets
around your vessel on the radios display. Therefore, you can identify and
avoid other large vessels nearby your vessel.
NOTE
To show AIS targets on the radio’s display, the internal or external
GPS needs to be fixed own location so the radio knows its position
relative to the AIS targets.
1. Press the
AIS
key to show the AIS screen.
The AIS display shows your vessel as a triangle
in the center of the display. AIS targets are shown
as circles. The line projected from the circle is the
AIS vessels course over ground (COG).
