GENERAL WARNINGS
An AIS device is a means of communication and relieves the skipper from standard communication for the coordination of
course information with other ships and the traffic control. AIS devices are no navigation devices and do not replace good
seamanship or any other navigational aids such as RADAR. It is the responsibility of the skipper to ensure safe operation
of the ship and to gain knowledge of water, current hazards and other navigation-relevant information.
The function of AIS equipment may be affected by internal and external influences or by defects. Influencing factors are,
for example, electromagnetic environment, interference from other radio emissions, weather, "visibility" and availability of
satellites of the positioning system, physical obstacles to VHF propagation or the quality of the device and in particular the
antenna installation. It is therefore necessary to regularly check the functioning of the AIS and the quality of the data
output by the AIS.
The compass safe distance of this unit is 0.55m or greater for 0.3° deviation.
Every AIS device needs to be registered with the competent authority for radio communication. In most countries the
operation of an AIS unit is included under the vessel's marine VHF license provisions. The vessel onto which the AIS unit
is to be installed must therefore possess a valid VHF radiotelephone license which lists the AIS system and the vessel Call
Sign and MMSI (Maritime Mobile Service Identity) number. Please contact the relevant authority in your country for more
information.
NOTE FOR OPERATION IN THE USA
In the United States the MMSI and static data may only be entered by an authorized dealer; the end user of the equipment
is not authorised to enter or change their own vessel data.
If your AIS transceiver has not been pre-configured please contact your dealer for details of how to have it configured.
