10.1.3.3 Add Region
The user is allowed to Add Regions, but caution is advised (see 10.1.3).
It is not allowed to delete regions, they will be deleted on timeout after 24 hours inactivity, if the ship is
more than 500NM away from the region, or if the region is overwritten. There is a maximum amount of
8 regions in addition to the HIGH SEA region
Red square shows

menu
When “Add Region” is selected,
default values for Channels, Tx/Rx
Mode, Power and Transition zone
are configured, but all these
parameters may be altered
together with defining position of
the North East and South West
corners of the Region.

10.1.3.3.1 Change Channel
NOTE! BE AWARE THAT SETTING OF CHANNELS WITHOUT SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE OF CORRECT SETTING
MAY ALTER YOUR AND OTHER VESSELS SECURITY AS:
YOU MAY TRANSMIT ON ILLEGAL CHANNELS
YOU MAY NOT BE SEEN ON OTHER VESSELS AIS
OTHERS MAY NOT SEE YOU
THIS CAN IN WORST CASE LEAD TO COLLISIONS
When you select either the buttons “Channel
A” or “Channel B” you may input the correct
channel number.
The default channels 2087 and 2088 are the
same as 87B or 88B used previously as Coast
Station frequencies on 161.975 MHz and
162.025 MHz.
See complete list in Chapter 12 and for
updates of this list from ITU RR, Appendix 18

10.1.3.3.2 Tx/Rx Mode
Tx/Rx Mode allows you to change setting in which the transponders will use the two regional channels
for transmission (Tx) and reception (Rx)
When you press the button “Tx/Rx Mode” it will toggle between the valid configurations:
Default – will transmit/receive on both channels

10.1.3.3.3 Output Power
The button “Output Power” will toggle between “High” and “Low” power:
(12.5 Watts)
(1 Watt )
10.1.3.3.4 Transition Zone
A Region must be between 20 an 200 Nautical miles and within this region there will be a “Transition
zone” between 1 and 8 Nautical miles:
This zone is used for frequency transition so only
one frequency is changed at a time. There are
defined rules for how the AIS will behave
through this zone.
The AIS will continuously monitor for its own
position and range to the regional areas defined.
When entering transition zone for Region 1,
frequency is changed on the primary channel.
The AIS is now sending the primary frequency
defined for each of the regions.
When the boundary for the Region 1 is crossed,
the second frequency shall be changed. Then the primary frequency for the old region (or default
setting) is switched with the secondary frequency for the new region. Then both frequencies have
changed.
When entering another region, frequency transition is performed as described above with the
frequencies (settings) of the new region. When leaving a region, frequency transition is performed back
to default values.
To change the value of this “Transition Zone”, select the button and input value
between 1 and 8 (Nautical miles)

10.1.3.3.5 Define Region
A Region must be between 20 an 200 Nautical miles as described above and you must define the
Longitudes and Latitudes of the South West and North East corners:
The values are defined by selecting these 4 buttons:
North East corner
South West corner
If the values are within 20 – 200 NM, they will be accepted, and you will be asked if you want to save it:
Otherwise you may experience errors:

10.1.3.5 Alarm Relay Output
The Alarm relay is a normally open earth free relay contact, provided as an independent and simple
method for triggering an external alarm. The alarm relay is deactivated upon acknowledgment of an
alarm, either internally on the display unit, or by an externally provided ACK sentence. If the
Transponder power is lost, and the Alarm relay has power, the alarm will be triggered. In this case, the
only way to deactivate the Alarm is to power the Transponder unit or disconnect the power source of
the Alarm relay.

NOTE! Since the TR-8000 uses Ethernet between transponder unit and display, an IP addresses must be
correctly configured
All parameters /buttons are “grayed out”
as they are not accessible without
“Admin Pswrd”
When “Admin pswrd” button is selected,
the following window appear:
Input the “Admin Password” (SE) into the

The TR-8000 support three
different methods of connecting an

If Ethernet is used, the External
Display should be connected
through an external Ethernet
switch since the TR-8000 Display
unit is already connected to this
connector

10.2.2.1 Autonomous Long Range
Long Range Broadcast Channel A and B are used for broadcasting positions and ship data to a
satellite system. Base Stations are able to temporarily disable the Long Range broadcast functionality of
the AIS. The Long Range Broadcast may also be disabled manually by administrator.
10.2.2.2 Polled Long Range
The Polled Long Range system can be configured to reply automatically or wait for
acknowledgement from the user. An indication of received LR messages is displayed for the user in
either case.
TR-8000 Operator and Installation Manual

10.2.2.3 Silent mode
The silent mode is a special mode for travelling in areas where the transmission of own position impose
risk to the user. When active, no signals are sent from the Transponder unit, but the user is still able to
receive information from other vessels.
If the Silent Mode is active for more than 15 minutes, the event is logged in the History Log.
CAUTION: The Silent Mode disables the AIS Transmitter functionality and will make the Vessel
invisible on the AIS system and impose a risk to other and own vessels.
10.2.2.4 Display SART in TEST mode
When AIS-SART was introduced as alternative to traditional Radar SART in 2011, it was obvious that
testing such equipment could lead to much “noise” on nearby ships AIS Transponders and ECS/ECDIS as
this AIS-SART icon/text message would pop up on all nearby vessels within VHF range (5-40 nautical
miles). Therefore, revisions in the AIS standards were made so the person who wants to test the AIS onboard the ship, must first activate this menu item before it will be shown on the vessels AIS and
ECS/ECDIS or Chart Plotter.
Example showing “Display SART in
test mode” and Popup received to be
acknowledged by pressing “Close” button
PS! Observe that here are “2 popups”
received from 2 different AIS-SARTs and
each “popup” must be acknowledged.
Also observe that AIS-SARTs are displayed
in top of the list in the background, and
with RED color.

10.2.2.5 Test Communication
The Communications Test is used to test the VHF communication by transmitting a request for an
acknowledgement to another ship. The target is automatically selected by the Display Unit, but the user
can choose to select another target as long as the target is a Class A AIS transponder. If the
Acknowledgment is not received within 10 seconds, the Communications Test has failed and the user
should optionally retry with another target.
If the TR-8000 is in “Silent mode”, it is not possible to
perform this test:
If not, we can continue with the test:
Step #1: Select Target
Step #2: Press “Test”
Step #3: Wait until test finished
Success:
or
Failure:
If the TEST fails, we can select another target and redo the test
