AIS SART - Search And Rescue Transponder

An alert is activated when your AIS receives a signal transmitted from an AIS Search
And Rescue Transponder (SART).
When the alert is activated an AIS SART indicator will be placed on the chart at the
position of the AIS transponder.
AIS SART Notification
When a AIS SART alert is received you will get an on screen message with a unique MMSI
number, its position and its distance and bearing from you. You have three options.
1.
Ignore - Ignores the alert. The alert message will not reappear.
¼ Note:
If you ignore the SART alert message the SART MOB
indicator will continue to be visible on your chart and vessels list.
If the AIS stops receiving the SART alert, the alert message will
remain in the vessels list for 10 minutes after it receives the last
signal.
2.
Save waypoint - Saves the waypoint to your waypoint directory. This waypoint name will be prefixed
with MOB AIS SART - followed by the unique MMSI number of the SART. e.g. MOB AIS SART - 12345678.
3.
Activate MOB - Activates MOB procedure and sets navigation to the SART waypoint.
¼ Note:
If a MOB is already active the activate MOB option will be disabled!
If you select the AIS SART indicator on the chart you will see a more detailed overview of the
AIS details.
