AIS9000 Manual

Notes: Important Hints


1. The manual is mainly for operator usage. Initial settings of the device are
not provided in the manual. Please consult manufacturer and agent for
specific details.
2. The functions that described in the manual may have some differences of the
products you have bought. But it will not affect the normal usage of the
device.

1. Product Description

AIS9000 is made up of a TDMA transmitter, two TDMA/DSC receivers, a AIS processor,

a CPU, a internal GPS receiver, power module and interface circuits, etc.

AIS9000 can work independently on two channels, set zero by receiving message

22 and work by transferring to other water channels.

The Class B AIS transponder’s two channels can work between Frequency

156.025MHz~162.025MHz water channels. The device’s default working channels are

Channel 2087 and Channel 2088. When the base station shift to the other working

frequency that is out of the above working frequency channels or 25KHz bandwidth by

remote control command, the device will convert to only accepted status.

4
AIS9000 Manual

The device has an internal GPS receiver, providing location, time, Course over

Ground (COG) and Speed over Ground (SOG) data. Positioning accuracy is about 10m.

When the device receives the message 17 from AIS base station, position data will

convert to high precision Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) position.

Accuracy can reach 1~2 meter(s).

When GPS do not positioning, the device will not transmit. But when the base

station adopts consulting ways to ask the marine radio for sending, the device will

get the basic time from consulting instructions and conduct one emission.

The device transmits the following AIS data.

AIS9000 Manual

Notes:
1. Base station can remotely change the dynamic data emission intervals ( 5 seconds
to 10 minutes) by message 23 or set silence period according to different areas
or vessel type.
2. Factory set the default vessel type to be yacht.
3. Factory set the vessel MMSI to be 000000000

The Class B AIS transponder has five indicator lights: power supply, GPS, RX, TX,
troubleshooting; a SOS button. The definition is explained as follows:

Indicator Lights Definition


GPS Positioning Flash Green Light means GPS position is valid; Constant Green

Light means no valid GPS position.

RX Flash green light means receiving AIS information. The more

flashes, the more AIS targets around or RX is working well.

TX Flash red light means the device is sending the AIS

information.

Flash once means sending once. Sending once every 30 seconds

or 3 minutes normally, therefore, it is hard to observe its

device.

Power Supply Red light means power on.

SOS Press the button, it will send the distress signal.

3. Installation

When choosing the GPS antenna installation location, please pay attention to

the following points:

 Selected location should keep away from radar radiating wave, which will destroy

or affect the GPS satellite signal reception.

 There is no obstruction in the line of sight of the satellite. Obstruction (such

as mast and so on) in sight will stop signal reception or extend satellite

searching time.

 The higher the installation location, the better. On the one hand, it can avoid

obstruction; on the other hand, it can avoid splashed by seawater that will affect

reception.

Notes: Make waterproof treatment of the cable joints.

AIS9000 Manual

3.2.1 Installation location

Please consider the AIS VHF antenna installation location carefully. Compared to

analog communication, digital communication is more sensitive to reflection

interference from the obstructions of iron tower, mast, etc.

9
AIS9000 Manual

3.2.2 Notes to reduce the interference

 AIS VHF antenna should be installed in the vertical location that is away from

conductive objects horizontally as far as possible. The level distance between

VHF antenna and conductive objects should be above 0.5 meter. VHF antenna should

not keep close to big vertical objects and be 360° vision without obstructions.

 AIS VHF antenna should keep away from big power emissive source, such as radar

and other radio transmission antenna. The distance between the AIS VHF antenna

and big power emissive source should be more than 3 meters. It should avoid

radiating area.

 AIS VHF antenna should be installed up or down of the original VHF wireless phone

directly.

3.2.3 Cable

 The short the VHF cable length, the smaller the signal attenuation. If the cable

length is too long, please choose the low loss coaxial cable.

 Make waterproof treatment for outdoor wire connectors.

 Coaxial cable should be routed by separate signal channel and away from power

supply cable at least 10cm. If the coaxial cable crossed, please make the cables

90 degrees vertically. The minimum bending radius should be more than 5 times

of cable outside diameter.

10
AIS9000 Manual

Please pay attention to the following notes when installation.

 The installation location should be of good ventilation;

 Enough space to connect power;

 Reduce vibration as far as possible;

 Be far away from the devices(such as motor, dynamo, etc) that can generate

electromagnetic;

 Be away from vent pipe and air hole.

3.4.1 Power Supply Connection

We suggest you adopt 24V direct current (DC) voltage.

Power supply connected cable should be 10A two core cable. Connectors are 2 cores

supplied randomly.
