The AIS Engine and a conventional marine antenna are all you need to start plotting vessels on your PC or AIS compatible plotter. The SeaClear software, that comes supplied, runs in Windows 95,98,ME,XP,2000,NT to Vista. It includes a world map on which vessels are plotted. Any vessel on the screen can be selected and its AIS data displayed. This includes the vessels name, MMSI number, position, call sign and destination, etc.
The AIS Engine has an optional input for a GPS (RMC sentence). With this connected the users own vessel is shown on the chart with its latitude and longitude displayed in a window. The unit receives both class A and class B AIS data.
The AIS Engine can also be used with plotters or other PC software that have an AIS input facility. Please check compatibility with your software provider. An NMEA 0183 HS input at 38,400 baud is required to accept the VDM AIS strings corresponding to ITU-1371.
