The FA-100 starts receiving data from AIS-equipped ships as soon as it is
turned on, and the ships’ location on the plotter display is shown with the AIS
symbol. (To learn more about the plotter display, see paragraph 1.7.) With
connection of a radar or ECDIS, the AIS target symbols may be overlaid on the
radar or ECDIS.
Note 1: If no navigation sensor is installed or a sensor such as a gyrocompass
has failed, the AIS automatically transmits “not available” data.
Note 2:
The reporting intervals are as follows
Ship’s navigation status and reporting interval
