A Surprisingly Simple Solution to an Incredibly Complex Problem
MX Marine has developed a complete solution to D/ GPS and AIS System. With only one combined Control and Display unit, you can access all related information and still command full control of all D/GPS, AIS, and optional D/GPS Compass functions. The system connects directly to the ship’s navigation sensors as well as ECDIS, ARPA radar and other shipboard information systems. Adding AIS to navigation for spontaneous ‘ship to ship’ or ‘ship to shore’ recognition greatly enhances safety at sea and provides mariners with new levels of real-time information. Designed with the deep sea commercial mariner in mind, we have created multiple configurations to suit the size and complexity of any vessel.
Automatic Identification System-AIS
The MX535 transponder, is a fully IMO-compliant STDMA unit remotely controlled by the MX420 Control and Display unit. Transponder system set-ups and controls are configured in the MX420. It can also gather the ship’s sensor data and organizes the information for transmission via AIS. The ship’s ECDIS, ARPA and Pilot’s PC all have access to both the D/GPS and the AIS information via the highspeed serial ports of the MX535/MX420. Password protected menus allow you to safely and simply enter all Static and Voyage related AIS information. AIS Situation Displays give you immediate and continuous graphic and/or text information about AIS-equipped ships and shore stations as they come into radio range.
