is represented by a small oriented triangle.

♦Lost Target: When the AIS info is not received from that vessel for 3.5 min- utes. The presentation will be a flashing black triangle with a cross through.

♦Activation Range: Range around your boat where targets become active. AIS target become active within this range. Activation Range should be greater than CPA Limit by definition.

NOTE

A target is removed from the screen if data is not received for 10 minutes. The maximum number of tracked targets is 100.

Depending on the scale the presentation of the targets change to remove clutter on the screen. This information is updated every 3 seconds to 6 minutes depending on speed and rate of turn, enabling the track of the vessels in range to be plotted.

1.Press [MENU]. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight SETUP MENU and press [ENT].

2.Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight ADVANCED SETUP and press [ENT] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the right.

3.Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight IN/OUT CONNECTIONS and press [ENT] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the right.

4.Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight PORT n INPUT and press [ENT] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the right.

5.Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight m and press [ENT] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the right.

Where:

n = Port 1/Port 2/Port 3*

m= NMEA-0183 4800-N81-N, NMEA-0183 38400-N82-N according to the transmission speed of your AIS receiver.

NOTE*

For CP 180i there is not the selection for the Port 3.
