5.7 AIS MENU

AIS is an Automatic Identification System. It has been introduced to im-

prove the safety of navigation by assisting in the efficient operation of ship-to ship,

ship reporting and VTS applications. The system should enable operators to obtain

information from the ship automatically, requiring a minimum of involvement of

ship’s personnel, and should have a high level of availability. AIS transponders in-

stalled on IMO vessels use VHF frequencies to:

• Transmit details of their own vessel

• Receive details from other vessels or navigation aids within VHF range.

Information being transmitted from vessels over 300 tons that, due to recent

worldwide legislation, are required to fit Class “A” AIS transponders.

Connecting to the chart plotter an AIS receiver (please contact your local

dealer), vessels with AIS transponder within VHF range are displayed on screen
