CONFIGURATION
The CB2 needs to be correctly programmed with the following vessel data before use:
•
Vessel Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number
•
Vessel name
•
Vessel call sign
•
Vessel dimensions and AIS GPS antenna location
•
Vessel type
An MMSI number comprises 9 digits, and all 9 digits of a valid number must be entered to
be accepted during setup. All other fields (i.e. vessel type, name etc.) are optional.
If your vessel already has an MMSI number (used for a VHF DSC radio) then the same
MMSI number must be used to program the transceiver.
If a valid MMSI number is not entered, the CB2 will enter Silent Mode and will not transmit
although it will still operate as a receiver.
