The most common connection to a dedicated chart plotter is to take the NMEA Output (Orange+ and
Brown –) from the AIS100 Receiver and to connect it to a free NMEA Input on the plotter. You must
then tell the chart plotter that AIS data is connected to this port and set the baud rate to 38,400 Baud
– the standard speed for AIS data. Consult the instruction manual supplied with your Chart Plotter to
understand how this is configured.
Apply power to the AIS100 Receiver and verify that the Green "Status" LED lights.
The "Status" LED will flicker every time that valid data from an AIS target is received. Depending
upon the number of vessels, fitted with AIS transponders, sailing within VHF range of your vessel,
the frequency of flickering maybe constant or as little as once every 30 seconds.
Installation is now completed
