MESSAGES
The AIS messaging system allows the user to send short messages to and receive messages
from another AIS.
There are two kinds of messages:
• Safety Related Message (SRM), which can be either pre-formatted text or free text
• Text messages (Limited to 160 characters)
ECDIS provides an elegant and efficient interface to this messaging facility
RECEIVING MESSAGES
When a new message is received by the AIS, it is automatically transferred to ECDIS and the
user is notified by the blinking small blue envelope icon (displayed next to the
acknowledgement button in the alarm panel).
