CONFIGURATION
The ATB1 needs to be correctly programmed with the following vessel data before use:
•
Vessel Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number
•
Vessel name
•
Vessel call sign
•
Vessel dimensions and AIS GPS antenna location
•
Vessel type
An MMSI number comprises 9 digits, and all 9 digits of a valid number must be entered to
be accepted during setup. All other fields (i.e. vessel type, name etc.) are optional.
If your vessel already has an MMSI number (used for a VHF DSC radio) then the same MMSI
number must be used to program the transceiver.
If a valid MMSI number is not entered, the ATB1 will not transmit although it will still oper-
ate as a receiver.
!
Important: In the United States of America, the MMSI and Static Data must
be entered only by a qualified dealer or other appropriately qualified in-
staller of marine communications equipment on board vessels. The user is
NOT authorized to do this. In Europe and other parts of the world outside of
the United States of America, the MMSI and Static Data can be set up by the
user.
