We keep on our blog a list which explains how to configure all the popular navigation apps & software. This list explains how to configure a NMEA connection (UDP/TCP) on the app/software but also how to configure the AIS settings. To see the list, please click here.Read More →

Our AIS transponders with a built-in web interface create a password protected WiFi network. With your tablet, PC or smartphone, if you scan for wireless networks, you should see a wireless network called “DY-AIS-xxxx” or “IAISTX-XXXX” where xxxx is a four-digit code unique to your AIS transponder. The name of the WiFi networks might change according to the product version. Make your device join this network and you will be asked to enter a password which is “PASS-xxxx” where xxxx is the same four-digit code as in your network name. You can change both the network name and password in the AIS transponder unit’s webRead More →

In order to facilitate the use and configuration of our AIS transponders, our new AIS transponders now have a built-in web interface. This is the case for the iAISTX, iAISTX Plus and AIT5000 (since March 2020). These devices create a WiFi network on board and configure themselves by connecting to WiFi. The configuration of the transponder can therefore be done through a computer, a tablet or even a smartphone and most importantly, no software is required. Our other transponders can only be configured through a computer by connecting the USB and downloading a specific software (ProAIS2). After installing and powering the device, here is the procedure to configure the AISRead More →

If you need to disable the GNSS PGNs that the AIT2500/AIT5000 outputs then this is the procedure to follow…. Using the proAIS2 software, go to the Serial Data tab and then copy and paste the following commands in to the box at the bottom of the page and click the “Send” button (see image below). To disable GPS data output over NMEA 2000 send this command: $PSMT,0,3,0x2C75B2FA,1,n2kognss 0,0*15   To enable it again send this command: $PSMT,0,3,0x2C75B2FA,1,n2kognss -1,0*39     ….if the command was successfully received and actioned, you should see Transponder respond with… $PSMT,255……….etc.     (basically, the same as the command but 255 instead ofRead More →

This video will show you how to install our AIT5000 Class B+ AIS Transponder for NMEA 0183 & NMEA 2000 based systems. To configure the AIT5000, you need to configure the AIT5000 with its built-in web interface.Read More →
