(Dotted lines in the figure above, means options) 3.1 Using serial interface (through “External display” port) When using this port, the RA-2500 needs a PC to connect and control the data flow. For connection details, see chapter------- VHF & GPS Antenna RA-2500 PC with compatible charting software Protection and filters Serial interface cable Figure 3.1, Communication between the RA-2500 and the PC is through the RS232 interface communicating on 38400 bits/second (baud). 82693_Op&Ins MAN_TR2500_D 3-1
3.2 Using Ethernet interface Using this port, the RA-2500 is connected to the Ethernet port on a PC or a network node. See chapter 7.3 for description of LAN connector. 3.3 Not all ships carry AIS It is important to remember that not all ships carry AIS, in particular leisure crafts, fishing boats, warships and some costal shore stations including Vessel Traffic Service Centers. 3.4 Use of AIS in collision avoidance As an anti-collision aid the AIS has some advantages over radar: - Information provided in near real-time. - Capable of instant presentation of target course alternations. - Not subject to target swap. - Not subject to target loss in clutter. - Not subject to target loss due to fast maneuvers. - Able to detect ships within VHF/FM coverage. - IMPORTANT When using the AIS for anti-collision purposes it is important to remember that the AIS is an additional source of navigation information. It does not replace other navigational systems. The AIS may not separately always give the right picture of the traffic in your area. 3.5 Erroneous information Erroneous information implies a risk to other ships as well as your own. Poorly configured or calibrated sensors might lead to transmission of incorrect information. It is the users responsibility to ensure that all information entered into the system is correct and up to date. 82694_Op&Ins MAN_RA2500_D 3-2
