10.1.3 Regional Settings
The Regional Settings are primarily used by local base stations to assign special frequencies or
transmitter configurations for certain areas. It is also allowable to add or edit the regions, but this
should be done with caution, as incorrect frequency settings for an area will disable the functionality
of the AIS system. Altering the regional settings is protected by a user password. The Area named HIGH
SEA, is the default area and contains the whole world, except from the other regions, if defined.
Each Region is defined by the following parameters:
Area, defined as North East corner and South West corner
Two channels used for VHF communications
Rx/Tx mode is used to restrict the transmission to one of the two channels.
Output Power is chosen between High or Low setting (1W or 12.5W)
Transitional zone defines the area surrounding an area in order to switch the frequencies in
a step by step order. The transitional zone defined between 1 and 8 NM
