AIS Receivers
Picture a shipboard display that includes a mark for every ship within VHF
range. This information can be yours with an
inexpensive Smart Radio AIS Receiver (added to
your navigation software or compatible GPS or Radar
Chart Plotter) or a Si-tex AIS Radar standalone
unit..
 |
AIS Radar
The Si-tex AIS Radar receives
transmissions from vessels carrying AIS
transponders and displays information from up to
30 targets on a 5" monochrome LCD screen with a
radar-like display.
-
Any vessel on the screen can be selected to
display vessel's MMSI number, name, course
over ground, speed over ground, range,
latitude and longitude
-
Each vessel is independently labeled so the
user can see if a vessel is underway, at
anchor, fishing etc. This information is
sent continuously and is useful in
navigating, traffic monitoring, and
collision avoidance
-
Zoom feature allows 6 ranges to be selected:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 NM
-
An alarm can be selected to give an audible
warning if a vessel enters a preset range
ring
-
Dual channel--161.975 and 162.02
MHz--operation
- Ability to track and display information
on up to 30 targets
- Accepts position information from an
onboard GPS (optional) to display user at
the center of the screen and all other AIS
transponding vessels displayed with relative
bearing and range
- Easy installation: connect a VHF antenna
(not included) and 12 volt DC power
-
Case Size: 6"W x 4 1/2"H x 1 5/8"D
-
No NMEA/computer connectivity

Smart Radio AIS Receivers
The Smart Radio AIS Receivers are
compact, easy to install, stand alone marine
receivers that monitor the channels assigned to
the Automatic Identification System or AIS.
These radio receivers are specially built for
marine environments for the intended use of
deciphering Automatic Identification System
data. Most commercial vessels are required to
have an AIS transponder that transmits
information about the vessel and its movements.
The system is designed to assist vessels with
identifying the traffic around them and to help
with marine safety and collision avoidance.
Smart Radios come in two versions:
a low cost, single channel scanning receiver
designed for recreational vessels and a full
time dual channel receiver designed for
recreational and professional use.
- High-sensitivity AIS data reception
- Line of sight reception similar to
marine VHF reception distances
- Very low power consumption
- Receives AIS Class A & B vessel reports
- Sends information to a PC or
chart-plotter via a serial interface
- Ability to track and display information
on multiple targets
- Easy installation: connect a VHF antenna
(not included), 12 volt DC power and a
serial cable to your PC
- Can an be used to consolidate incoming
NMEA positional data from a GPS into a
combined high-speed data stream on a single
serial port with optional AIS/GPS cable
- Dual AIS channel support
