(with optional-purchase
GPS Receiver and AIS equipment only)
Settings: Press the RIGHT Cursor key to activate.
Your Fishing System is compatible with AIS technology. This equipment must
be purchased separately and connected properly to the control head for AIS to
be activated in your Fishing System.
When an AIS is connected to the Fishing System, AIS will appear as a menu
option in the Accessories Menu Tab. AIS allows you to locate and monitor other
vessels, or Targets, within range of the VHF signal. The AIS then exchanges
information with those targets, including vessel identification, position, course,
and speed.
As target information is received, the information is displayed in the Track
View. In Bird’s Eye View, only the target position is displayed.
• Vessel Icons identify the type of target.
• Alarm & Red Vessel Icon identify a target that has exceeded the CPA
(Closest Point of Approach) setting. The alarm sound and banner will
display on the screen. Press any key to stop the alarm, but the vessel
icon will continue to display as red until it is out of the CPA alarm zone.
