Operating Instructions and Installation Instructions

Installation:
The AIS-2-USB Receiver is not waterproof and should be
mounted in a dry location. The unit can be fixed by the 4
mounting holes in the end flanges.
It will require connection to a marine VHF antenna via the
BNC socket at the rear or with a BNC to VHF adaptor socket.
Connect the Receiver to your computer via the supplied USB
cable. Switch on the computer and load the Drivers as
detailed on the CD. This will create a Virtual Com Port that
will enable the AIS data sent via USB to be displayed on
a compatible AIS computer program.
The output Baud rate is set to 38,400, if you wish to change
this to 4800 baud, disconnect the power, unscrew the two
screws to release the front cover and move the jumper
located in the middle to the 4800 position.
Operation:
On applying power the Green LED will light and the two
Channel Red LEDs will come on continuously for
approximately 10 seconds then extinguish. If you are within
range of vessels transmitting AIS data the two channels Red
LEDs will flash intermittently indicating reception of a AIS
messages which will be sent as NMEA data via the USB
connection to the computer.
