Receive AIS loop

In the Receive AIS loop mode the test box will receive and display the MMSI number and
message ID continuously from all AIS transponders within reach – one at a time. The result is
kept in the display until the next is received. Results are displayed only, not stored in the
memory.
In this mode you also have a choice between AIS1 and AIS2.
Use the same test setup as with Receive AIS.

Receive Message 21 (AtoN)

The Receive Message 21 mode enables you to test Aids to Navigation devices. The tests can
be performed on AIS1 and AIS2 respectively.
If you wish to include power measurements in the AtoN test, use the same setup as with AIS
Receive Sele. Then, the test box will receive the AtoN's MMSI number and AIS data, and at the
same time measure the frequency and the forwarded and reflected power.
If the power test is not required, you may use the same setup as with AIS Receive (over the air).
Select Receive Message 21 on the test box and press OK. Select AIS channel and press OK
again to wait for data to be received. Since AtoN information is transmitted with 3-minute
intervals on each frequency, it may take up to 6 minutes until the AtoN transmits its data on the
AIS frequency requested.
