Simrad NX40/45 Installation and Operation Manual62
AIS16
AIS is short for Automatic Identication System. The
International Convention for Safety of Life At Sea
(SOLAS) requires all vessels greater than 300 tons and all
passenger vessels to be equipped with AIS Transponders.
All vessels equipped with AIS permanently broadcast via
one or more of the two dedicated VHF channels. This
transmission may include information about the vessels
MMSI-number, its call sign, name, position, course,
heading, speed, rate of turn and type of vessel.
This unit can receive and display AIS information when
connected to an AIS receiver. Available AIS vessels
transmitting in the local area are shown on the chart
when this feature is enabled.
We recommend the Simrad AI50 for the NX40/45. The
following AIS receivers are also supported by this unit:
Comar SLR200 (external GPS)
Weatherdock Two Channel AIS Receiver
NASA Marine AIS Engine 2 channel Receiver (external
GPS).
To enable AIS from the system menu check the
AIS
box.
