5.3.2    Initial Setting 
 
 
This section explains the initial setting for using the AIS function. 
 
 
 
Setting the GPS antenna location 
 
Set  the  GPS  antenna  location.    Set  offset  ranges  in  longitudinal direction  and  latitudinal  direction  from  the 
own ship's reference position. 
For  the  setting  procedure,  refer  to  Section  7.1.6  “Setting  of  CCRP/Antenna/GPS  Antenna  Position  (CCRP 
Setting).” 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Setting collision decision criteria (CPA Limit/TCPA Limit) 
 
The collision decision criteria for the TT function are applied to the AIS function. 
For the setting procedure, refer to Section 5.1.5 “Setting Collision Decision Criteria (CPA/TCPA Limit).” 
Note that the same collision decision criteria must apply to TT. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
z  If offset ranges are not set correctly, AIS symbols and 
radar echoes may be displayed shifted. 
z  When offset ranges are set, latitude and longitude 
data received from the GPS is offset, and the offset 
data is displayed as the latitude and longitude of own 
ship’s position. 
Attention 
 
z  Set the optimum values of collision decision 
conditions, depending upon vessel type, water area, 
weather, and oceanographic conditions.
