Raymarine ais650 инструкция на русском

Приемопередатчик АИС Raymarine AIS650

Raymarine AIS-650 модуль системы автоматической идентификации судов, позволяет передавать и принимать данные АИС по радиоканалу для дальнейшего вывода информации на судовой монитор или картплоттер. Вы можете наблюдать на экране бортового дисплея данные о других судах, их местоположение, скорость, курс, информацию о маршруте и параметры судна. Устройство интегрируется в бортовую судовую сеть и осуществляет обмен данными с остальными системами по протоколу NMEA0183. Обращаем ваше внимание, что УКВ антенна в комплект не входит и поставляется отдельно.

Компактность и энергоэффективность. Прибор обладает низким энергопотреблением и размещен в компактном, что актуально при установке в ограниченном пространстве на парусных судах и катерах. Транспондер АИС относится к аппаратуре класса «Б», однако приемник прибора поддерживает системы класса «А» и «Б» и может с успехом использоваться как на маломерных судах, так и на регистровых водоизмещением менее 300 тонн.

Одна антенна на два устройства. Устройство не комплектуется антенной УКВ радиосвязи, однако, при использовании дополнительного антенного сплиттера Simrad NSPL-500 AIS вы можете использовать антенное устройство бортовой системы морской УКВ радиосвязи. Прибор обеспечивает одновременную работу радиостанции и системы автоматической идентификации судов.

Я часто вижу на АИС иностранные MMSI на судах с российской регистрацией. Как так может быть?

1.Покупают б/у уже запрограммированные и не меняя номера ходят.
2. Шифруются: вводят чужой номер, а чтобы особо не отвечать по российским законам используют иностранный.

Мне кажется, второй вариант мало прокатывает. Привлекают за нарушения при визуальном контроле. А там номера, документы… По АИС видят конечно, но судов с АИС на акватории немного, все на перечет. Я думаю, ГИМС их наизусть знают. И, что-то мне подсказывает, не особо с ними связываются. А вот первый да, похоже.

• #284

Вопрос к знатокам АИС: как поменять данные катера, которые передает АИС, например название судна?

Только перепрограммировать. Обычно у дилера есть оборудование и программы для этого

• #285

Увидел много мнений по самой системе AIS, каналы передачи сигналов и пр. Выкладывать файл с инструкцией нет смысла, но если есть желание пройдите по ссылке, это перевод AIS класса «B»:

Там всё доходчиво расписано, но если возникнут вопросы с удовольствием отвечу.

Если только название/номер или что ещё- это ерунда, можно изменить самому. У Raymarine есть официальный Tool (у них же на странице), через который Вы программируете новый AIS Transponder. В нем можно изменять название судна. Единственное, что так просто не сделать- это изменить MMSI (тут либо к дилеру, либо… )

EMC installation guidelines

Raymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, to minimize electromagnetic interference between equipment and minimize the effect such interference could have on the performance of your system

Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.

For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever possible:

• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:

– At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas.

In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft (2 m).

– More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.

• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. This is important to prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have a separate battery.

• Raymarine specified cables are used.

• Cables are not cut or extended, unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.

Note: Where constraints on the installation prevent any of

the above recommendations, always ensure the maximum possible separation between different items of electrical equipment, to provide the best conditions for EMC performance throughout the installation

Suppression ferrites

Raymarine cables may be fitted with suppression ferrites. These are important for correct EMC performance. If a ferrite has to be removed for any purpose (e.g. installation or maintenance), it must be replaced in the original position before the product is used.

Use only ferrites of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine authorized dealers.

Connections to other equipment

Requirement for ferrites on non-Raymarine cables

If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite

MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.

Declaration of conformity

Raymarine Ltd. declares that this product is compliant with the essential requirements of EMC directive 2004/108/EC.

The original Declaration of Conformity certificate may be viewed on the relevant product page at www.raymarine.com

Important information

AIS overview

Your AIS device uses digital radio signals to exchange ’real-time’ information between vessels, shore based stations, or aids to navigation (AToNs) on dedicated VHF frequencies. This information is used to identify and track vessels in the surrounding area and to provide fast, automatic and accurate collision avoidance data.

Although AIS augments your radar application by operating in radar blind spots and detecting smaller AIS-fitted vessels, it does not replace radar, as it relies on receiving transmitted AIS information and therefore cannot detect objects such as landmasses and navigational beacons.

NEVER assume that AIS is displaying information from all vessels in the area, because:

9

• Not all vessels are fitted with AIS

• Although it is mandatory for larger commercial vessels to carry

AIS, it is not mandatory to use it.

AIS should be used only to augment radar information, not substitute it.

Warning: AIS limitation

Never assume that your AIS is detecting all vessels in the area. Always exercise due prudence and do not use AIS as a substitute for sound navigational judgement.

• Dynamic data. Includes information such as time (UTC), ship’s position, COG, SOG, heading, rate of turn and navigational status.

• Dynamic reports. Ship’s speed and status.

• Messages. Alarms and safety messages.

Remember that not all vessels will transmit all of the information.

Class B transceivers

Class B AIS transceivers transmit and receive AIS signals, but use a reduced set of data compared to Class A (see Data Summary). A

Class B AIS transceiver can be fitted on any vessel not fitted with a

Class A transceiver, but is not mandatory aboard any vessel.

Classes of AIS

The AIS350 is a receiver that receives messages from vessels, land base stations, or aids to navigation (AToNs) carrying Class A or Class B transceivers.

The AIS650 is a Class B transceiver that receives messages from and transmits messages to vessels, land base stations, or aids to navigation (AToNs) carrying Class A or Class B transceivers.

Class A transceivers

Class A AIS transceivers transmit and receive AIS signals. AIS transceivers are currently mandatory on all commercial vessels exceeding 300 tons that travel internationally (SOLAS vessels).

The following information can be transmitted by a Class A AIS system:

• Static data. Includes information such as vessel name, vessel type, MMSI number, call sign, IMO number, length, beam and

GPS antenna location.

• Voyage related data. Includes information such as draft, cargo, destination, ETA and other relevant information.

Data reporting intervals

AIS information is classed as either static or dynamic. Static information is broadcast, when data has been amended, or upon request, or by default, every 6 minutes.

The reporting rates for dynamic information depend on speed and course change, and are given in the following tables.

Note: The reporting rates shown here are for reference and may not be the rate at which information is actually received by your AIS transceiver. This is dependent on a number of factors, including but not limited to antenna height, gain and signal interference.

System protocols

Your product can be connected to various products and systems to share information and so improve the functionality of the overall system. These connections may be made using a number of different protocols. Fast and accurate data collection and transfer is achieved by using a combination of the following data protocols:

• SeaTalk ng

• NMEA2000

• NMEA0183

Note: You may find that your system does not use all of the connection types or instrumentation described in this section.

Seatalk

ng

SeaTalk ng (Next Generation) is an enhanced protocol for connection of compatible marine instruments and equipment. It replaces the older SeaTalk and SeaTalk 2 protocols.

SeaTalk ng utilizes a single backbone to which compatible instruments connect using a spur. Data and power are carried within the backbone. Devices that have a low draw can be powered from the network, although high current equipment will need to have a separate power connection.

SeaTalk ng is a proprietary extension to NMEA 2000 and the proven

CAN bus technology. Compatible NMEA 2000 and SeaTalk /

SeaTalk 2 devices can also be connected using the appropriate interfaces or adaptor cables as required.

NMEA 2000

NMEA 2000 offers significant improvements over NMEA 0183, most notably in speed and connectivity. Up to 50 units can simultaneously transmit and receive on a single physical bus at any one time, with each node being physically addressable. The standard was specifically intended to allow for a whole network of marine electronics from any manufacturer to communicate on a common bus via standardized message types and formats.

NMEA 0183

The NMEA 0183 Data Interface Standard was developed by the National Marine Electronics Association of America. It is an international standard to enable equipment from many different manufacturers to be connected together and share information.

The NMEA 0183 standard carries similar information to SeaTalk.

However it has the important difference that one cable will only carry information in one direction. For this reason NMEA 0183 is generally used to connect a data receiver and a transmitter together, e.g. a compass sensor transmitting heading to a radar display. This information is passed in ‘sentences’, each of which has a three letter sentence identifier. It is therefore important when checking compatibility between items that the same sentence identifiers are used some examples of which are:

• VTG — carries Course and Speed Over Ground data.

• GLL — carries latitude and longitude.

• DBT — carries water depth.

• MWV — carries relative wind angle and wind speed data.

NMEA baud rates

The NMEA 0183 standard operates at a number of different speeds, depending upon the particular requirement or equipment capabilities. Typical examples are:

• 4800 baud rate. Used for general purpose communications, including FastHeading data.

• 9600 baud rate. Used for Navtex.

• 38400 baud rate. Used for AIS and other high speed applications.

12 AIS350 / AIS650 Installation instructions

NMEA Connections

You can connect your transceiver to your VHF radio set and a multifunction display using the NMEA connections on the power/data cable.

The transceiver’s power and data connector provides NMEA0183 connections at both 4800 baud and 38400 baud rates, as follows:

Wire color NMEA0183 Function

Yellow

Gray

Pink

Purple

4800 baud IN —

4800 baud IN +

4800 baud OUT –

4800 baud OUT +

Green

White

Blue

Brown

38400 baud IN —

38400 baud IN +

38400 baud OUT —

38400 baud OUT +

A multiplexer built into the transceiver manages both 4800 and

38400 baud rates. This feature effectively frees up an NMEA port on your multifunction display. If only one NMEA0183 port exists on your equipment, the multiplexer eliminates the need for a separate multiplexer.

Typically the NMEA0183 connections are used as follows:

• The 4800 baud wires connect to the appropriate points on the

VHF radio or other NMEA0183 4800 baud input/output device.

• The 38400 baud wires connect to appropriate Raymarine multifunction display. The NMEA0183 port on each display connected in this manner must be set to 38400 baud.

2.3 Cables and connections

General cabling guidance

Cable types and length

It is important to use cables of the appropriate type and length

• Unless otherwise stated use only standard cables of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine.

• Ensure that any non-Raymarine cables are of the correct quality and gauge. For example, longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize voltage drop along the run.

Routing cables

Cables must be routed correctly, to maximize performance and prolong cable life.

• Do NOT bend cables excessively. Wherever possible, ensure a minimum bend radius of 100 mm.

Minimum bend

200 mm (8 in) diameter

Minimum bend of cable

100 mm (4 in) radius

• Protect all cables from physical damage and exposure to heat.

Use trunking or conduit where possible. Do NOT run cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects.

• Secure cables in place using tie-wraps or lacing twine. Coil any extra cable and tie it out of the way.

• Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, use a suitable watertight feed-through.

• Do NOT run cables near to engines or fluorescent lights.

19

Always route data cables as far away as possible from:

• other equipment and cables,

• high current carrying ac and dc power lines,

• antennae.

Strain relief

Ensure adequate strain relief is provided. Protect connectors from strain and ensure they will not pull out under extreme sea conditions.

Circuit isolation

Appropriate circuit isolation is required for installations using both

• Do NOT bend cables excessively. Wherever possible, ensure a minimum bend radius of 100 mm.

Minimum bend

200 mm (8 in) diameter

Minimum bend of cable

100 mm (4 in) radius

• Protect all cables from physical damage and exposure to heat.

Use trunking or conduit where possible. Do NOT run cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects.

• Secure cables in place using tie-wraps or lacing twine. Coil any extra cable and tie it out of the way.

• Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, use a suitable watertight feed-through.

• Do NOT run cables near to engines or fluorescent lights.

AIS350 / AIS650 Installation instructions

Always route data cables as far away as possible from:

• other equipment and cables,

• high current carrying ac and dc power lines,

• antennae.

Strain relief

Ensure adequate strain relief is provided. Protect connectors from strain and ensure they will not pull out under extreme sea conditions.

Circuit isolation

Appropriate circuit isolation is required for installations using both

AC and DC current:

• Always use isolating transformers or a separate power-inverter to run PC’s, processors, displays and other sensitive electronic instruments or devices.

• Always use an isolating transformer with Weather FAX audio cables.

• Always use an isolated power supply when using a 3rd party audio amplifier.

• Always use an RS232/NMEA converter with optical isolation on the signal lines.

• Always make sure that PC’s or other sensitive electronic devices have a dedicated power circuit.

• If you intend pole-mounting the antenna, the pole needs a 1 inch

14 TPI thread.

AIS350 / AIS650 Installation instructions

Important: The main requirement of the intended location for the

GPS antenna is that it gives a good direct line of site to the entire sky, right around the horizon.

Ensure that the intended mounting location is:

• Open and clear of any obstructions (such as masts, search lights, or other structures) that could block line-of-sight to the sky.

• As low as possible, to keep the antenna as stable as possible.

The more stable the unit, the more effectively it will track satellites and provide stable data.

• As far as possible (at least 1 m (3 ft)) from other antennae and electronic equipment.

Do NOT mount the antenna:

• In any area where it could be stepped on or tripped over
