AIS Symbols and Their Meanings

When the AIS display is active, each AIS object is marked with a symbol that indicates
the object’s status. For the meaning of each AIS symbol, see "AIS
symbols" on page AP-44.
Note 1: The equipment continues to process AIS objects when the AIS feature is de-
activated. When the AIS is activated again, symbols are immediately displayed.
Note 2: AIS symbols are momentarily erased and the screen is redrawn after the
heading is changed in the HEAD UP mode.
Note 3: When no AIS data is received, the message "LOST AIS COM" appears in the
Alert Box. Check connection with the AIS transponder.
When the AIS function is disabled: Above message is prioritized as a Caution level
alert for IMO/R-types. A/B/W-types do not show this alert.
When the AIS function is active: Above message is prioritized as a Warning level
alert for all radar types.
