carrier-sense TDMA (CSTDMA) technology. It is designed to inter-operable and compatible with Class A or other Class B shipborne mobile AIS stations or any other AIS station operating on the AIS VHF data link. CAMINO-201 AIS uses marine VHF channels with frequency set universally from 156.025 MHz to 162.025 MHz. Having CAMINO-201 AIS on board, not only can you monitor the status of the vessels in the surrounding area, but also receive the dynamic information (position, speed, SOG, and etc.), static information (ship name, MMSI, call sign, and etc.), and voyage related information (cargo type, destination, and etc.) from any vessels equipped with AIS. CAMINO-201 AIS is one of the cutting-edge navigational aid equipment allowing real-time information exchanges within AIS network. It is also capable of integrating with other maritime systems such as Electronic Chart System (hereinafter called ECS) for various maritime navigation applications. CAMINO-201 is designed with 2 RF receivers and 1 RF transmitter. One of the RF receivers is time-shared between AIS and DSC. At front side, CAMINO-201 equips with 5.7 LCD display 1 panel and 10 functional keypads. At rear side, CAMINO-201 equips with 1 VHF antenna connector, 1 GPS antenna connector, 1 NMEA interface connector, 1 RS232 interface connector, and 1 power connector.
*NOTE: The CAMINO-201 is an equipment to be used in protected environmental conditions. It is not intended to expose to rain or spray longer than couple minutes. 1.2 Type of AIS There are mainly two types of AIS transponder: Class A and Class B. The intended nature of these AIS systems in navigations is different as illustrated in the following table. CAMINO-201 is a Class B AIS transponder. Table 1-2 Type of AIS Class A AIS Transmits and receives AIS signal in SOTDMA protocols. Intended for vessels meeting the IMO AIS carriage requirements. It is mandatory for all commercial vessels that exceed 300 tons to be equipped with Class A AIS. Class B AIS Transmits and receives AIS signal in CSTDMA protocols. Not necessarily in accord with IMO AIS carriage requirements. It is not mandatory for vessels to be equipped with Class B AIS. Suitable for recreational vessels or fishing boats, in enhancing its safety at sea. 2 1.3 AIS Message Type The CAMINO-201 supports following message types.

However, a few points must be noted as below, Any AIS cannot guarantee in monitoring and receiving signals from all vessels in the surroundings unless those vessels equip with AIS device. It is important to note that the AIS is designed for the purpose of anti-collision and is serves as a compliment to navigation. It is not navigational equipment and does not replace any navigational system installed on board. Although AIS is operated automatically by itself, the owner or the crew on the vessel should still maintain a proper lookout for the surroundings. While the AIS is capable of setting alarm of Distance to Closest Point of Approach (hereinafter called CPA) and Time to the Closest Point of Approach (hereinafter called TCPA), vessel owner or the crew should be aware of the fact that there are vessels that are not equipped with AIS, and this function will not apply on these vessels. Incorrect data and information entered into the AIS is considered as erroneous information. Erroneous information or improper configuration will cause risk to other vessels and the own vessel when these information are transmitted. Users must be aware of this risk and make sure that all the information entered into the system is correct and up to date. 4 2 INSTALLATION 2.1 General The installation information for the CAMINO-201 is sub-divided into proper steps in block diagrams for easy reference. 2.1.1 Safety Instructions Before proceeding with installation, take note of the following safety instructions and read through this installation manual carefully.
