Mount the WatchMate at least 0.6m (2 ft) from any compass. Test your
compass to verify that it operates properly when the WatchMate is operating.
• A dedicated VHF antenna or Vesper Marine AIS/VHF Antenna Splitter
is required.
• Choose an omnidirectional VHF antenna designed for the marine band
(156-162MHz) and ensure it is well tuned at the AIS end of the band (VSWR 2:1
or less at 162MHz).
• Mount the antenna as high as possible (at least 2-3 metres (6-10 ft) above the
water surface). It is not recommended to place the VHF antenna near a mast
or other metal structures.
CAUTION: Install the antenna a minimum of 0.5m (2 ft) from any other VHF or
HF antennas and not within the beam path of a radar. Inadequate separation
may damage the device and void your warranty.
CAUTION: Never operate this device unless it is connected to a suitable VHF
antenna or Vesper Marine AIS/VHF Antenna Splitter. The use of any other
splitter may damage the device and void your warranty.
HINT: Use the WatchMate’s VSWR meter on the AIS Status screen to check your
antenna system installation.
