only a single NMEA 0183 port. An additional sensor, such as a gyro-
compass, can be connected to the AIS transceiver via the low speed
port and the AIS transceiver can be connected via the high speed
port to the chartplotter resulting in the chartplotter receiving both
AIS information and heading information simultaneously. Please
ensure your equipment is configured to use the correct baud rate
for the port it is connected to.

Step 7 - Connection to an NMEA 2000 network (optional)
The AIS transceiver can be connected to an NMEA 2000 network
by a suitable Navico NMEA 2000 network cable available from your
local Navico dealer. If your vessel has an NMEA 2000 network, please
refer to the relevant documentation for your NMEA 2000 equip-
ment. Once connected, and with your chartplotter also connected
to your NMEA 2000 network, you will be able to receive AIS targets
on your chartplotter.
Step 8 - USB Connection (optional)
The AIS transceiver is supplied with a USB port for connection to
a PC or Mac. The USB connector can be connected directly to the
USB port on the PC or Mac via the supplied USB cable. To enable
connection of the AIS transceiver to a PC, the USB drivers must be
installed first.
The USB drivers are installed as part of the proAIS2 installation pro-
cess. Please install proAIS2 as described in section 4 before attempt-
