Installation and configuration
Page 16
5.3.6 Testing the configuration
Configuration of the Coast Station is now complete. To test the configuration, connect the Ethernet port on the
rear of the Coast Station (marked ‘ETHERNET’) to an access point or Router with access to the public
internet. The Coast Station will acquire an IP address via DHCP and commence streaming received AIS data
to the configured server address.
The Coast Station must be able to receive AIS targets to test the connection, so connection of a VHF antenna
and presence of AIS targets is also required. If the configuration is correct the AIS activity LED on the Coast
Station will flash to indicate target reception, and the Ethernet activity LED will flash to indicate network
activity. You should now confirm that AIS data is being received at the remote server.
5.4 Resetting the Coast Station
An incorrect or incomplete configuration may result in the Coast Station configuration web page being
unavailable. The Coast Station network interface can be reset to factory configuration using the recessed reset
button on the rear panel (see
Figure 5).
To reset the Coast Station apply power, then press and hold the reset button for at least 10 seconds. After
reset the Coast Station configuration interface will be available as described in section
5.3.
