Introduction to proAIS2
proAIS2 is available for download from www.em-trak.com/installation and
allows you to configure your transceiver using a PC or laptop over USB.
This configuration tool can be used to configure your vessel data, check the
GPS antenna performance, view details on surrounding vessels, and monitor
and diagnose the performance of the transceiver.
Installing proAIS2
1. Download and extract the zip file to your local PC or laptop. For Windows
installations you will need to open the 'en-us' folder and run the setup.exe
or proAIS2.msi files before following the on-screen prompts.
For MacOS X installations you will need to open the OSX folder and run
the proAIS2.dmg file.
2. If a security warning appears, click 'Install' to continue with the installation.
3. For Windows installations, the USB drivers can be optionally installed at
the same time. This is recommended for most installations and will be
required to allow your PC or laptop to recognise the transceiver COM port.
Once installation is complete, a start menu folder and shortcut can be cre-
ated for future use.
Vessel data configuration using proAIS2
For configuration purposes only, it is possible to power the AIS transceiver
using USB only. This is useful if you wish to configure your AIS transceiver
away from the vessel power supply. The AIS transceiver will not transmit or
receive any data whilst powered by USB only.
You will require the following information in order to configure your AIS
transceiver:
● MMSI
● Vessel name
● Vessel type
● Vessel dimensions and position of your GPS antenna installation.
