12-112. AIS, DSC MESSAGE12.1 What is AIS?AIS (Automatic Identification System) is a system that continuously transmits the iden-tification and position of your ship to AIS-equipped ships within VHF range. All such ships also receive data from other AIS-equipped ships and display their positions and other relevant information. The AIS broadcasts this information over a VHF transceiv-er. Data include:12.2 How to Show or Hide the AIS Symbols1. On the radar display or plotter display, open the [Layers] menu.2. Turn [AIS Targets] on or off as required.12.3 AIS Target Symbols• Position • Call sign•  Name of ship •  Speed over ground•  Course over ground •  Name of position-fixing equipment•  Position of position-fixing equipment •  Rate of turn• HeadingTarget type Symbol DescriptionActivated AIS targetCOG is indicated on the symbol with a dot-ted line.Danger-ous AIS targetThe target whose values for both CPA and TCPA are smaller than [CPA Alarm Value] and [TCPA Alarm Value], which are set in the [Settings] - [Targets] menu, is indicated as a dangerous target.Color: Blue for the Class A AIS: Green for the Class B AISSOG and COG vectorROT (Rate of Turn)Heading lineColor: Red
12.  AIS, DSC MESSAGE12-2Other AIS symbols that may appear are shown in the table below.Lost AIS targetAn AIS target becomes a lost target if a signal is not received from the AIS target for x* minutes. The lost target symbol is erased if a signal is not received for an ad-ditional x* minutes.*: The time depends on the AIS transpon-der. Check the operator’s manual for your AIS transponder for information about lost targets.No CPA/TCPAtargetAIS symbols are shown in a broken lines in the following cases:•  No water or ground tracking speed of your ship, or there is no speed data. All AIS symbols are shown in broken lines.•  No speed data from AIS target. The symbol of the corresponding AIS target is shown in broken lines. A target with neither a reported heading nor COG is oriented toward the top of the operation-al display area.Symbol MeaningAtoNBase StationAircraftSARTTarget type Symbol DescriptionColor- AIS target: Blue for the Class A AIS: Green for the Class B AIS- Cross: RedColor: Blue for the Class A AIS: Green for the Class B AIS
