Calling an AIS vessel If the system includes a VHF radio supporting DSC (Digital Select Calling) calls over NMEA 2000 (all units except ELITE-5Ti) or NMEA 0183 (all units), you can initiate a DSC call to other vessels from the unit. The call option is available in the AIS Vessel Details dialog, and in the Vessel status dialog activated from the Tools panel. From the Call dialog you can change channel or cancel the call. The Call dialog is closed when the connection is established. 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. AIS | ELITE Ti Operator Manual 99
