Product and system overview ContentsAIS overviewAIS (Automatic Identification System) transceivers use digital radio signals to exchange 'real-time' information between vessels, shore based stations, or aids to navigation (AToNs) on dedicated VHF frequencies. This information is used to identify and track vessels in the surrounding area and to provide fast, automatic and accurate collision avoidance data. AIS technology achieves this by continuously transmitting a vessel’s identity, position, speed and course, along with other relevant information to all other AIS-equipped vessels within range.Compatible Raymarine displaysThe AIS receiver/transceiver is compatible with the MFDs shown below. displays can be connected using either a SeaTalkng® backbone or NMEA 0183 connection set to 38,400 baud rate.
