AIS SART When an AIS SART (Search and Rescue beacon) is activated, it starts transmitting its position and identification data. This data is received by your AIS device. If your AIS receiver is not compliant with AIS SART, it interprets the received AIS SART data as a signal from a standard AIS transmitter. An icon is positioned on the chart, but this icon is an AIS vessel icon. If your AIS receiver is compliant with AIS SART, the following takes place when AIS SART data is received: • An AIS SART icon is located on the chart in the position received from the AIS SART • An alarm message is displayed If you have enabled the siren, the alarm message is followed by an audible alarm. Ú Note: The icon is green if the received AIS SART data is a test and not an active message. AIS SART alarm message When data is received from an AIS SART, an alarm message is displayed.
