the Alpha PCB.

ECDIS.

1.9 AIS
The AIS signal is connected to TB8 on the Alpha PCB.
It's possible to receive RS422 or RS232 standard signal only at 38400 bps.
The sentences accepted are: AIALR, AIVDM and AIVDO.
NOTE
It is also possible to connect the output from the RADAR to the
AIS device, to acknowledge the alarms coming from AIS from
the RADAR interface. Normally, the AIS equipment has only
one input available, so that only one RADAR can be connected
to it and only one will be able to acknowledge the alarms. This
output is on the same serial port TB8 with only one sentence
generated: AIACK
The same output is the source for tracking data sentences TTD and TLB.
