applied.
The system has a Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) radius of 1.5m. This has been determined assuming the maximum
power of the transponder and using antennas with a maximum gain of 3dBi.
•
The antenna should be mounted 3.5m above the deck in order to meet RF exposure requirements.
•
Higher gain antennas will require a greater MPE radius.
•
Do not operate the unit when anyone is within the MPE radius of the antenna (unless they are shielded from the
antenna field by a grounded metallic barrier).
•
The antenna should not be collocated of operated in conjunction with any other transmitting antenna.
This device has been designed to operate with standard marine VHF antennas having a maximum gain of 3dBi. Antennas not
included in this list or having a gain greater than 3dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna
impedance is 50 ohms
.
Licensing and Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI)
IMPORTANT: In most countries the operation of an AIS unit is included under the vessel's marine VHF licence provisions. The
vessel on to which the AIS unit is to installed must therefore possess a current VHF radiotelephone licence which lists the AIS
system and the vessel Call Sign and MMSI number.
An MMSI number is required in order for the TRANSAS AIS CLASS B transponder to operate
