5.6 AIS Viewer Description
The AIS Viewer is a complementary charting software supplied with your
CAMINO-108 transponder purchase. The software installation file and its user manual
can be found in the provided CD-ROM.
This powerful tool allows users to display AIS targets either on a basic line map or in
an alphanumeric view. It transforms your PC to a user-friendly AIS data logger and
can trace other vessels with voyage track. Besides, the software offers various safety
features to help users be alerted during their voyage.
Once the program is installed, you can establish a connection to PC either
automatically or manually by assigning the COM port and baud rate. Please notice
that before trying to connect to PC, you should quit the Configuration Software or
vice-versa. The transponder can only establish connection to one software at a time.
The AIS CPA/TCPA setting can be configured via AIS Viewer.
