  • Page 5: What Is Ais

    WHAT IS AIS? The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a Very High Frequency (VHF) radio broadcasting system that transfers packets of data over the VHF data link (VDL) and enables AIS equipped vessels and shore- based stations to exchange identification information and navigational data. Ships with AIS transceivers continually transmit their ID, position, course, speed and other data to all nearby ships and shore stations.

  • Page 6: V5043 System Overview

    It is an excellent choice for SOLAS vessels, commercial ships, professional vessels, and non-SOLAS applications. The V5043 can be connected to the ship’s sensors as required by the IALA guidelines through junction box. The device can also interface external navigation and presentation systems that support IEC 61162-1 related sentences.

  • Page 10: Gps Antenna Installation

    GPS antenna installation A GPS (GNSS) antenna and cable is supplied with the V5043. • Install the GPS antenna in a position where it has a clear view of the sky. The aim is to see 360° around the horizon, with a clear vertical view from 5° above the horizon to 90° above the horizon.
  • Page 11 Example GPS and VHF antenna locations The diagram below gives an example of the GPS and VHF antennas’ locations on a vessel. Existing equipment or structures on a vessel may require the antennas to be positioned differently. In all cases, for correct operation of the AIS, ensure the positions chosen for the GPS antenna and VHF antenna adhere to the guidelines in the sections GPS antenna installation and VHF antenna installation on page 10.
