5 What is AIS? AIS permits the non-verbal exchange of navigation information between vessels and shore-side vessel traffic centers. 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 land- masses and navigational beacons, but it can be used as a significant enhancement to currently available technology. Classes of AIS Your AIS250 is a receive-only unit that will receive messages from vessels carrying Class A or Class B transceivers. Class A 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 Information transmitted 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. • Voyage related data This includes information such as draft, cargo, destination, ETA and other relevant information. • Dynamic data This includes information such as time (UTC), ship’s posi- tion, COG, SOG, heading, rate of turn and navigational sta- tus. • 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. Class B - (Recreational vessels not covered by suitable Class A) Class B transceiver’s are suitable to vessels under 65 feet in length and is not compulsory. 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 fol- lowing table is necessarily transmitted by every vessel.

Static and dynamic information 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 D8966_1 Static Data Ship's name Type Call sign IMO number Length and beam GPS Antenna loctation Draft Cargo information Destination ETA Other relevant information Time Ship's position COG SOG Gyro heading Rate of turn Navigational status Dynamic Data Voyage Related Data Data details Class A Class B Ship's speed Ship's status Dynamic Reports Alarm Safety Messages Ships Dynamic Conditions Normal reporting interval At anchor or moored 3 Minutes 0-14 knots 10 Seconds 0-14 knots and changing course 3 1/3 Seconds 14-23 knots 6 Seconds 14-23 knots and changing course 2 seconds Ship faster than 23 knots 2 Seconds Ship faster than 23 knots and changing course 2 Seconds

9 Chapter 2: Installation 2.1 EMC installation guidelines 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 Elec- tromagnetic 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 elec- trical equipment. For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wher- ever 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 tran- sients, 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. Suppression Ferrites If a supplied cable is fitted with a suppression ferrite, the ferrite must not be removed, unless it is necessary to facilitate installa- tion. 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. Connections to Other Equipment If Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a Raymarine suppres- sion ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.

11 2.4 System configuration The illustration below shows a basic installation for an AIS system: 2.5 Planning the installation When planning the installation and choosing locations for the antenna and receiver, consider the following points: Receiver Warning: Potential Ignition Source! This product is NOT approved for use where hazardous/flammable atmo- spheres could occur, e.g. an engine room. You should choose an installation site where the power cable can be easily removed from the unit. VHF antenna GPS antenna FM radio VHF radio NMEA 38.4 IN/OUT SeaTalk D9983_1 Multifunction display CANCEL OK RANGE IN OUT PAGE ACTIVE WPTS MOB MENU DATA AIS250 receiver NMEA Data 4.8 in/out MIN MAX -10 55 14 130 D9063-1 Protect the receiver from extremes of temperature. DO NOT place the receiver near an engine, or where fuel vapor could be present. DO NOT install the receiver where it is likely to get wet or where it can be splashed with water. DO NOT install the receiver where it can be kicked or trodden on.

Antenna Your Raymarine AIS receiver does not strictly require a dedi- cated 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. 2.6 Cable runs 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: • You may need to connect the antenna cable and the antenna connector cable from the AIS250 receiver to your VHF radio. 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. • 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. You will need to run the following cables: • 1.5 m (5 ft.) Power cable. • 1.2 m (4 ft.) AIS250 to VHF radio connector cable (enables you to use the existing VHF antenna cable). Power cable A 5 ft. (1.5 m) power cable is supplied, and must be protected by a 1.0A resettable fuse/circuit breaker Antenna cable A 4 ft. (1.2 m) AIS250 to VHF cable is supplied. (This allows you to use your existing VHF antenna for dual purpose, i.e. AIS250 & VHF reception).

13 2.7 Installing the system The following section gives details of how to install your Rayma- rine AIS receiver and antenna. Receiver The receiver should be installed a minimum of 3 ft. (1m) away from an engine, compass or any magnetic device. A Minimum space of six inches is to be left under the unit to allow adequate room for cable bends/connections and removals.

15 AIS250 integrated NMEA multiplexer The AIS250 has an internal multiplexer (baud rate converter) allowing the integration of an additional NMEA 0183 device to your multifunctional display. Note: All NMEA ports operate NMEA 0183 interface standards, operating at different baud rates. See NMEA 0183 tech- nical 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. Cross track error. 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. 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 pro- cedure. 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. Power 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. 10188_1 NMEA 38.4 OUT NMEA 38.4 IN NMEA 4.8 OUT NMEA 4.8 IN POWER

21 2.5 How AIS data is displayed? Your AIS system displays AIS targets in the surrounding area as triangular shapes overlaid on a chart or radar page. Up to 100 targets are displayed. As the vessel’s status changes, the symbol for the target will change accordingly. Vectors can be displayed for each target. These vectors indicate the direction of travel and rate of turn of the vessel and the distance it will travel over a specified period of time (COG/SOG vector). Targets displayed with their vectors are referred to as ‘active targets’ and are scaled according to the size of the vessel. The larger the vessel the larger the target. You can either display all targets or just dangerous targets.(See Page 23.) D9056_1 097˚T 11.6kt 1.237nm 00h04m33s Safety critical data Heading Large vessel Direction of turn Small vessel COG/SOG vector Safe zone (defined by distance or time) Dangerous target (flashes) Sleeping target

25 2.7 Using AIS for collision avoidance Your AIS system can help with collision avoidance using the following functions: • Safe zones. • Safety messages. Safe zones A safe zone is a red ring displayed on radar and/or chart pages around your boat. Targets that come within this ring are consid- ered dangerous. An AIS safe zone uses the same criteria as MARPA to deter- mine a targets status. A target is considered dangerous if it comes within the CPA or TCPA of your boat. The CPA and TCPA are calculated using COG/SOG and position from the AIS target. When your system recognizes a dangerous AIS target: • The target symbol changes to red and flashes. • An alarm pop-up is displayed. • An alarm sounds. With your AIS receiver connected and functioning, the system continually checks for dangerous targets within the safe zone and sounds an alarm if enabled, when necessary. However, the dangerous target alarm operates irrespective of the AIS target display or safe zone ring status. To set up an AIS safe zone: 1. Select AIS Options 2. Press TARGET TRACKING. The AIS options soft keys appear. 3. Press MARPA & AIS OPTIONS. The MARPA and AIS options dialog box appears. MARPA and AIS options Parameter Options (Default in bold) Vector Length The distance the vessel will travel in the selected time period, at current COG & SOG 0.5min, 1 min, 3 min, 6min, 12min, 30 min, 60 min Target History Plots a MARPA target’s previous position at specified intervals. The four most recent position points are displayed. If True target vectors are selected, the four most recent vessel position points are also displayed. OFF, 0.5 min, 1 min, 3 min, 6 min

Safety messages When the status of the AIS Safety Messages function is set to ON in the AIS Layer Setup Menu (see page 20), any incoming safety messages from surrounding vessels, shore stations and mobile stations, are displayed in a pop-up box. If known, the message will include the sending vessel’s position as latitude and longitude. Using the softkeys you now have the option to: • Remove the message (ACKNOWLEDGE) • Place a waypoint on your chart/radar to mark the sending vessel’s position. • Select to GOTO the sending vessel’s position. Note: When the simulator is operating you will not be able to re- ceive any safety messages. Simulator We recommend that you use the simulator to familiarize yourself with the AIS function. When the system simulator is switched on your Raymarine display, it will display 20 AIS targets within a 25nm range. These targets are displayed using the appropriate AIS targets status symbol (see page 22) and move around the screen as if they were real targets. Important: Incoming safety messages cannot be displayed while the simulator is switched on. Own vessel safe zone The safe zone is a ring, centred on your boat, within which a target is considered dangerous if it comes within a specified distance. 0.1 nm, 0.2nm, 0.5nm, 1.0 nm, 2.0nm Time to safe zone If a target enters your safe zone within this time period, it is consid- ered dangerous. 3 mins, 6 mins, 12 mins, 24 mins Safe zone ring Controls whether the safe zone ring is displayed or hidden on screen Visible Hidden Parameter Options (Default in bold)
