Introduction

Background to AIS
AIS is an Automatic Identification System. For improved safety and
specifically for collision avoidance reasons, vessels need to know the
position, details and navigational intentions of other vessels within
VHF range.
IMO regulations covering most commercial vessels worldwide, have
been passed requiring that AIS transponders are fitted to all
commercial vessels over 300 grt on international voyages.
The transponders use VHF frequencies to
●
Transmit details of their own vessel and
●
Receive details from other vessels or navigation aids within
VHF range.
The SLR-350N
The SLR-350N is an AIS receive unit with built in Ethernet and USB
interfaces, designed specifically for coastal monitoring of AIS
equipped vessels.
Connected to an Ethernet Network and directly or via a Router to a
PC running compatible software, AIS data transmitted from ships
within range can be displayed on the screen giving a visual
interpretation of the traffic within VHF range. The unit can also be
mounted at a remote location and AIS data can be sent over the
Internet to a fixed IP address for use on a dedicated server.
A USB connection is also provided for local monitoring of AIS traffic
on a local PC.

includes:
●
Name of vessel
●
Call Sign

Speed (SOG)
