Automatic Identification System
The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is an automatic
tracking system used on vessels and by vessel traffic services
(VTS). It enables vessels and VTS to identify and locate vessels
by electronically exchanging data with other nearby vessels and
AIS base stations. When used with a compatible chartplotter or
multifunction display (MFD), AIS can assist with collision
avoidance.
NOTE:
AIS is not available on all models.

NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000
®
When you connect the radio to a NMEA 0183 device or a NMEA
2000 network, you can transfer received DSC distress and
position information to any compatible connected chartplotter
(
).
The radio can also receive GPS-position information from a
NMEA 0183 device or a NMEA 2000 network. Received GPS-
position information appears on the home screen and is
transmitted with DSC calls. appears on the screen when GPS
data is available, and flashes when GPS data is not present.
When GPS data is not present, you must enter your position
manually (
).
For more information on connecting the radio to a NMEA 0183
device or a NMEA 2000 network, see the
VHF 110/210 AIS
Series Installation Instructions
.
Additional Functionality with Other Garmin
Devices
The radio has additional capabilities when you connect it to
other Garmin devices, such as a chartplotter.
NOTE:
You may need to upgrade your Garmin chartplotter
software to use NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 features.
When you connect the radio to a Garmin chartplotter using
either NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000, your chartplotter keeps track
of the current and previous positions of the contacts in the
directory.
When you connect the radio to the same NMEA 2000 network
as a Garmin chartplotter, you can use the chartplotter to set up
an individual routine call.
When you connect the radio to the same NMEA 2000 network
as a Garmin chartplotter, and you initiate a man-overboard
distress call from the radio, the chartplotter prompts you to
navigate to the man-overboard location. If you connect a Garmin
autopilot system to the same NMEA 2000 network, the
chartplotter prompts you to start a Williamson's turn to the man-
overboard location.
Communicating Over NMEA 0183 or NMEA
2000
NOTE:
This feature is not available on all models.
You can select a connection either to a NMEA 0183 device or to
a NMEA 2000 network. The radio can communicate over only
one communication protocol at a time.
