Integrated AIS Receiver
|
Includes a built-in two channel
parallel AIS receiver. This high
performance receiver means
greater range and increased
safety. It also makes
installation easier. No external
"black boxes" to mount, power
and wire. Just plug in a VHF
antenna and connect the
AISWatchMate RX
to your GPS.
|
Target
Plot
|
Provides a radar-like display of
all vessels within the selected
range. The display can be
oriented north-up or heading-up
so it's very easy and natural to
interpret. Dangerous and lost
targets are readily identified. |
Graphical Plot Shows Crossing
Situations
|
Shows
the relative position of a
target vs. your vessel at the
closest point of approach. This
provides a graphical view of the
crossing situation and clearly
indicates whether a target will
pass ahead or behind. |
CPA
and TCPA
|
Computes the closest point of
approach and time until CPA.
Alarms may be based on these and
other factors. |
Bearing and Range
|
Computes the bearing and range
to each vessel. Bearing can be
displayed in magnetic to
facilitate easy visual
identification using your
compass and binoculars. Bearings
can alternatively be displayed
in true or relative to your
vessel's heading. |
Prioritization
|
Vessels and alarms are presented
in priority order.
|
Filtering
|
In
crowded operating areas the
AISWatchMate RX
eliminates clutter and false
alarms with sophisticated
filtering options. |
Identify your "fleet"
|
Targets marked as members of
your fleet are displayed with a
special icon. Use this to
indicate your friends or vessels
you commonly work with. |
CPA
alarm
|
Triggers alarm if a vessel will
come too close. Full control of
alarm parameters.
|
Guard
alarm
