AIS uses digital radio signals to broadcast information about the vessel to other ships and shore based stations via dedicated VHF frequencies in the maritime band. AIS will not replace radar because it is unable to detect landmasses and navigational beacons, but it can be used as a significant enhancement to currently available technology. This includes information such as time (UTC), ship's position, COG, SOG, heading, rate of turn and navigational status. · Dynamic reports These are ship's speed and status. · Messages These are alarms and safety messages. You should remember that not all vessels will transmit all of the information. Your AIS250 is a receive-only unit that will receive messages from vessels carrying Class A or Class B transceivers. A Class A transceiver transmits and receives AIS signals. It is currently compulsory on all commercial vessels that exceed 300 tons that also travel internationally The following information can be transmitted by a Class A AIS system: · Static data This includes information such as Ship's name, type, MMSI number, call sign, IMO number, length and beam and GPS antenna location.

You should NOT assume that any class of AIS receiver is displaying all/any smaller vessels within your range. Note: All messages contain the Ships individual MMSI number for unique reference identification purposes along with the data in the following table. Not all the information in the following table is necessarily transmitted by every vessel. 5 d e tt i m s n a r t n o i t a m r o f n I no itamro fni tna tropmI :1 re tpahC SIA fo sessalC ?SIA si tahW A ss alC Data details Class A Class B Static Data Ship's name Type Call sign IMO number Length and beam GPS Antenna loctation Voyage Related Data Draft Cargo information Destination ETA Other relevant information Dynamic Data Time Ship's position COG SOG Gyro heading Rate of turn Navigational status Defined transmit rates for Class A vessels shown below are provided for reference purposes only. The frequency of messages received (using the AIS250 receive-only unit) will vary due to a number of factors including but not limited to such factors as antenna height, gain and signal interference. · Static information is either broadcast every 6 minutes, when data has been amended, or upon request. · Dynamic information is broadcast depending on speed and course alteration based on the following tables Normal reporting interval 3 Minutes 10 Seconds 3 1/3 Seconds 6 Seconds 2 seconds 2 Seconds 2 Seconds Ships Dynamic Conditions At anchor or moored 0-14 knots 0-14 knots and changing course 14-23 knots 14-23 knots and changing course Ship faster than 23 knots Dynamic Reports Ship's speed Ship's status Messages Alarm Safety D8966_1 Ship faster than 23 knots and changing course r e v i e c e R m e t s y S n o i t a ci f i t n e d I c i t a m o t u A e n i r a m y a R noitam rofni cimanyd dna citatS 6 Platforms condition Class B Shipborne mobile equipment not moving faster than 2 knots Class B Shipborne mobile equipment moving 2-14 knots Class B Shipborne mobile equipment moving 14-23 knots Class B Shipborne mobile equipment moving faster than 23 knots Search and Rescue aircraft (airborne mobile equipment) Aids to Navigation AIS base station Nominal reporting interval 3 Minutes 30 Seconds 15 Seconds 5 Seconds 10 Seconds 3 Minutes 10 Seconds Source of information for above tables 1-1, 1-2: (ITU recommendations technical document: ITU-R M.1371-1) 7 no itamro fni tna tropmI :1 re tpahC r e v i e c e R m e t s y S n o i t a ci f i t n e d I c i t a m o t u A e n i r a m y a R 8 Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment. Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment. For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible: · Raymarine equipment and the cables connected to it are: · At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2 m). · More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element. The product is supplied by a separate battery from that used to start the engine. Power supply voltages below the · minimum specified for a product, and starter motor transients, can cause the product to reset. This will not damage the product, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode. Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual. If a supplied cable is fitted with a suppression ferrite, the ferrite must not be removed, unless it is necessary to facilitate installation. Any ferrite thus removed must be replaced in the original position immediately after installation is complete. If additional suppression ferrites are required, use only ferrites supplied by Raymarine. If Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a Raymarine suppression ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit. · 9 tnemp iuqE rehtO o t snoi tcennoC s e tir r eF n ois se rp p uS senilediug noitallatsni CME 1.2 noitallatsnI :2 retpahC noit all atsnI :2 re tpahC 4 ft.

So ensure enough room is allowed to comfortably insert and remove connectors from the unit. All cables should be adequately protected from physical damage and exposure to heat. Avoid passing cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects. Acute bends and squashing of the cable must be avoided. elbac annetnA Caution: DO NOT cut cables or remove connectors as this will severely reduce system performance. If a longer cable is required you will need to purchase a replacement cable from a suitable dealer. In the event a shorter cable length is required, secure excess cable out of the way. Consider the following points before installing the system cables: : sel b a c gni woll of e h t n u r ot de e n lli w u oY Your Raymarine AIS receiver does not strictly require a dedicated antenna. The on-board antenna splitter enables you to connect your existing VHF radio antenna to your AIS receiver and then connect from the AIS250 to your VHF. However in doing so you may experience some level of degradation to your VHF's receiving performance. A separate VHF antenna is recommended if you wish to maintain the same performance. · Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, a watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used. DO NOT pull cables through bulkheads using a cord attached to the connector. This could damage the connector. 1.5 m (5 ft.) Power cable. 1.2 m (4 ft.)

This data is passed back to the AIS receiver to be transmitted to a connected NMEA 0183 4.8 kbaud device such as a DSC radio or Autopilot via the "NMEA 4.8 OUT" port. Both 38.4 kbaud IN/OUT ports are connected to the single NMEA 0183 port on either a C or E-series multifunctional display with the connected NMEA port configured to 38400. The AIS250 has an internal multiplexer (baud rate converter) allowing the integration of an additional NMEA 0183 device to your multifunctional display. 10188_1 NMEA 38.4 NMEA 38.4 NMEA 4.8 NMEA 4.8 OUT IN OUT IN POWER Important: The multifunctional display's NMEA baud rate must be configured for "AIS 38400" for correct operation see individual display's user manual for correct procedure. NB: Your multifunctional display may require a software upgrade to enable this feature. NMEA 4.8 OUT: This port allows devices requiring NMEA 0183 data running at 4.8 kbaud as their input to integrate into the NMEA network. Typically a DSC radio's or a 3rd party non-Raymarine Autopilot's NMEA input would connect to this port. NMEA 4.8 IN: This port allows the integration of an external NMEA device such as a fast heading sensor, NMEA GPS or other NMEA 0183 compatible device to communicate with the connected display via 4.8 kbaud data which is multiplexed and sent via the 38.4 kbaud OUT port. If you have multiple NMEA 0183 4.8 kbaud devices, the Raymarine NMEA multiplexer (p/n E55059) may be used. The output from the multiplexer connects to this port. Note: All NMEA ports operate NMEA 0183 interface standards, operating at different baud rates. See NMEA 0183 technical specification for details. Your AIS250 unit has 2 NMEA ports. · 34.8 kbaud IN/OUT · 4.8 kbaud IN/OUT From left to right the ports are labelled as follows: NMEA 38.4 OUT: This port outputs received AIS data to your NMEA compatible multifunction display*. This port will also multiplex and output buffered data from the "NMEA 4.8 IN" port. NMEA 38.4 IN: This port allows NMEA sentences from your multifunctional display such as GPS location, Autopilot route information i.e. This port connects to your power supply to provide power to your AIS250 receiver. * it is important to note the received AIS data is ONLY output to the 38.4 kbaud port and NOT to the 4.8 kbaud port. 51 rewoP rexelpitlum AEMN detargetni 052SIA noit all atsnI :2 re tpahC r e v i e c e R m e t s y S n o i t a ci f i t n e d I c i t a m o t u A e n i r a m y a R 61 Environmental Waterproof Operating range Storage range Humidity Connectors IPX2 -10oC to 55oC (14o to 131o F) -20oC to 75oC (-4oF to 167oF) up to 95% at 35oC noncondensing Performance Operating frequencies Channel spacing Sensitivity Data rate Antenna impedance Baud rate Format NMEA telegramme VHF In/Out FM Out Power NMEA 0183 Size 8.6" x 6.7" x 2.5" (218.8 x 170.5 x 61.7 mm) 0.5 Kg Two key-holed mounting tabs, screws Reverse polarity protected 12 V to 24 V DC (-10% to +30%) Weight Mounting Power Voltage 161.975 and 162.025 MHz 25 kHz < -109 dBm (receiver only) 9600 BpS 50 Ohm 38.4 kB/sec.
