AIS SART
When an AIS SART (Search and Rescue Transponder) is activated, it
starts transmitting its position and identification data. This data is
received by your AIS device.
If your AIS receiver is not compliant with AIS SART, it interprets the
received AIS SART data as a signal from a standard AIS transmitter.
An icon is positioned on the chart, but this icon is an AIS vessel icon.
If your AIS receiver is compliant with AIS SART, the following takes
place when AIS SART data is received:
• An AIS SART icon is located on the chart in the position received
from the AIS SART.
The AIS SART icon is red when in 'Active' state. It is green when in
'Test' state.
• An alarm message is displayed.
If you have enabled the siren, the alarm message is followed by an
audible alarm.
Ú
Note: The icon is green if the received AIS SART data is a test
and not an active message.
AIS SART alarm message
When data is received from an AIS SART, an alarm message is
displayed. This message includes the AIS SART’s unique MMSI
number, and its position, distance, and bearing from your vessel.
You have the following options:
• Ignore the alarm
-
The alarm is muted and the message closed. The alarm does
not reappear.
Ú
Note: If you ignore the alarm, the AIS SART icon remains visible
on your chart, and the AIS SART remains in the vessels list.
