2 Overview
2.1 Compatibility with Other Systems
Overview
The 3410 is an AIS Electronics Unit which receives data from other vessels by means of a VHF radio
and sends these data to the radar/navigation system. In the opposite direction, the AIS receives data from
the radar/navigation system and the ship’s sensors and transmits these data by means of the VHF radio.
Access to these data and access to the VHF radio for a pilot is prepared by means of an additional pilot
port.
The AIS has a long range port to connect a long distance communication system, for instance a satellite
communication system. In this way, the AIS can be called to send the ship’s data. These data are sent
back via the long range port to the questioner.
The AIS 3410 is equipped with a 16 channel GPS receiver and provides position data according to IEC
61162 Edition 3, so that it is suitable for the use as a position sensor. In areas where the VTS stations
provide differential correction data via VHF link the AIS 3410 switches automatically into DGPS mode.
For further details see Section 4.
2.1 Compatibility with Other Systems
The AIS 3410 can be used in the following system:
RADARPILOT/CHARTRADAR 1000/1100
NACOS xx-5
NACOS xx-4
CHARTPILOT Stand-alone
NACOS xx-3 (Radar 9xxx AIS Interface needed for the display of AIS targets at Radar 9xxx indicators and MULTIPILOTs in radar mode)
mixed systems consisting of Radar 9xxx and RADARPILOT 1000
Radar 9xxx (with Radar 9xxx AIS Interface)
The AIS might not work with SAM Electronics systems/components which are running with older software
versions. For further information, see the Technical Manuals of these systems or the Software Release
Notes.
It is also possible to use the AIS 3410 within systems from other manufacturers which support the IECdefined interfaces.

AIS 3410 in NACOS xx-3 systems
The AIS 3410 is connected to the CHARTPILOT via Ethernet LAN.
The ship’s sensors are connected to the Ship’s Interface. The sensor data are transferred to the AIS, to
the CHARTPILOT and to other radars or MULTIPILOTs.
If two Ship’s Interfaces are existing because of redundancy purposes, the ship’s sensor output(s) of both
Ship’s Interfaces must be connected to the Electronics Unit.
Without the Radar 9xxx AIS Interface it is not possible to display the AIS data at the Radar 9xxx or at the
MULTIPILOT 91x0 in radar mode. One interface is sufficient for the complete system, regardless of the
number of Radars 9xxx/MULTIPILOTs.
NOTE:
If the AIS Electronics Unit receives the ship’s sensor data from Ship’s Interface, the output interfaces of
the Ship’s Interface must be configured as follows:

The AIS 3410 is connected to the CHARTPILOT via Ethernet LAN and to the Analog Interface of the
RADARPILOT 1000/1100. The RADARPILOT 1000/1100 transfers the AIS data via CAN1, so that the
data can be displayed also at the Radar 9xxx (or at a MULTPILOT 91x0). It is not necessary to install
the Radar 9xxx AIS Interface. If the RADARPILOT 1000/1100 is connected via LAN instead of Primary
Display Port, the AIS data is not available on CAN1 for the Radar 9xxx.
The ship’s sensors are connected to the Ship’s Interface. The sensor data are transferred to the AIS, to
the CHARTPILOT and to a MULTIPILOT.

Installation Recommendations
3.1 General Recommendations
3.1.1 Cables
Cable types, cable data, maximum cable length, special instructions for cable laying and connection
details are defined in the Cabling Documents of the corresponding equipment (consisting of schematic
diagram, remarks, cable list and connection diagram).
Interface connections should be discussed and agreed with SAM Electronics
In order to ensure proper functioning of the equipment, the cable types should be selected according to
the cable lists.
In general, the following points must be taken into account:
For the cables inside the units (cabinets), an extra length of 1 metre is necessary at each end. If
the height of the unit exceeds 0.5 metre, an extension by 1 m plus the height of the cabinet is necessary.
All cables should be kept as short as possible, especially coaxial cables to minimize attenuation of
signal.
In order to fulfil all abovementioned requirements, install cables in two steps:
Install cables and leave extra length of 1 metre or more as described above
Cut cables to correct length in order to reach its terminal, but do not leave extra lengths furled
inside or outside the cabinet
The cables must be marked by the electrician at both ends with the cable numbers corresponding
to the SAM Electronics cabling documents.
Where necessary, particular cable glands - marked with letters and/or numbers - are assigned to
the cables.
The identification letters and numbers are stated in the connection diagrams; they are either fixed to
the unit or can be seen from the outline drawings (...BZ or ...MB).
All connectors installed outdoors (e.g. on coaxial cables) should be waterproof by design to protect
against water penetration into the cable.
Coaxial cables should be installed in separate signal cable channels/tubes and at least 10 cm away
from power supply cables. Crossing of cables should be done at right angles (90°). Coaxial cables
should not have any to sharp bends, which may lead to a change in the characteristic impedance of
the cable. The minimum bend radius should be 5 times the cable’s outside diameter.
It must be ensured that all cables - including their screens - are passed into the units in continuous lengths and are not terminated before reaching the destination equipment.
With multicore cables, it is useful to strip down and lace the single wires according to the terminal
sequence.
Existing cable grippers in the units must be used.
All cable connections must be carefully checked after completion of the cable work and all cable
screens must be grounded via the shortest possible connections - if not stated otherwise in the
Cabling Documents/Connection Diagram.

3.1 General Recommendations
All cables must be secured by means of suitable clamps (pull-relief) before entering the units.
It must be ensured that cables do not block any moving parts within a unit.
Power leads must be protected by "slow-blow" fuses according to their cross section.
In the case of a unit whose cable inlet consists of a hole with brackets attached on the inside
and outside, the cable must be dressed as shown in Figure 3-1.

3.1.2 Electronics Units
Dimensions, weights, spaces required for service and maintenance and special installation instructions
are stated in the outline drawings and installation drawings of the corresponding unit. In general, the
following points also apply:
The useful life of the components of all Electronics Units (Pulse Generators, Transceivers etc.)
generally decreases with increasing ambient temperature; it is therefore advisable to install such
units in air-conditioned rooms. If there are no such facilities - e.g. deckhouse or space near or below
the water line - these rooms must at least be dry, adequately ventilated and kept at a suitable
temperature in order to prevent the formation of condensation inside these units.
With most Electronics Units, cooling takes place via the surface of the casing.
The cooling must not be impaired by partial covering of the unit as a result of insulation (if any) of
the room (the wall on which the casing is mounted), or by installation of the unit in a confined
cabinet.
Furthermore, the distance from the ceiling and the floor or from a unit situated underneath must be
at least 300 mm.
For service purposes, a power socket (AC 220/230 V) and adequate lighting are necessary in the
vicinity of each Electronics Unit.
In the area of the wheel house, the distance of each Electronics Unit from the magnetic
standard compass or the magnetic steering compass must not be less than the permitted
magnetic protection distance.

3.2 Specific Recommendations
AIS 3410, Electronics Unit
Technical Manual
This distance is measured from the centre of the magnetic system of the compass to the nearest
point on the corresponding unit concerned.
Units which are to be used on the bridge wing must be installed inside the "wing control console" protected against the weather - if they do not at least correspond to the enclosure type IP 56. In
order to avoid misting of the viewing screen, 25 ... 50 W console-heating (power depending on the
volume) is recommended.
When selecting the site of a unit, the maximum cable lengths have to be considered according to
the notes in the cabling documents (remarks, cable list).
The accessibility for maintenance and service (stated in the outline drawings or installation drawings) must be considered.
The impairment of a digital read-out or a display screen by direct light from lamps or the sun must
be avoided. Rear windows must be blacked out by means of roller blinds or Venetian blinds.
Disturbing reflections on the screen of a display caused by pilot lamps and illuminated signs must
be prevented by suitable measures (screening or relocating).
When a unit is being installed, the base, floor or bulkhead must be checked to ensure that it is
flat in order to avoid twisting of the unit when the fixing screws are tightened, because such twisting
would impair mechanical functions. Any unevenness should be compensated for by means of
spacing-washers.
The grounding screws of the units must be connected to the body of the ship (ground); the wire
used should have a cross sectional area of at least 6 mm.
Aboard fibreglass (GRP) vessels, a "grounding network" with a high conductance - taking into
consideration the working frequencies of the other equipment - must be provided in order to achieve
satisfactory EMC (electromagnetic compatibility).
In the interests of safety during maintaining or servicing, the shipyard should provide a common
isolating switch or circuit breaker (in conjunction with a contactor, if necessary) for all interconnected equipment.
Transportation damage, even if apparently insignificant at first glance, must immediately be examined and be reported to the freight carrier. The moment of setting-to-work of the equipment is too
late, not only for reporting the damage but also for the supply of replacements.
The equipment should never be switched on by the electricians who did the installation work
- not even just for a moment - never!
This is a job for the authorised SAM Electronics service engineer.
After hand-over of the equipment in good operating condition to the customer, the Installation
Report (Annex of the Warranty Certificate) should be filled in completely and then forwarded to SAM
Electronics, Hamburg, as proof of such fulfilment. It is important that these requirements be fulfilled
in order to avoid the risk of losing the warranty.

Positioning of the VHF Antenna
The digital signals of the AIS may occur as a periodic clicking sound on a ship’s radiotelephone. This
effect may become stronger when the VHF antenna of the AIS is located near the VHF radiotelephone
antenna and when the radiotelephone is operating on channels near the AIS operating channels (for
example channels 27, 28, 86).
The antenna should be placed in an elevated position that is as unobstructed as possible, with a
minimum of 2 m in the horizontal direction from any structures made of conductive materials. The
antenna should not be installed close to any large vertical obstruction. The objective for the VHF antenna
is that it should "see" the horizon freely through 360°.
The VHF antenna should be installed safely away from interfering high-power energy sources such as
the radar scanner and other transmitting radio antennas, preferably at least 3 m away from and out of the
transmitting beam.
Ideally there should not be more than one antenna on the same level. The AIS VHF antenna should be
mounted directly above or below the ship’s primary VHF radiotelephone antenna, with no horizontal separation and with a minimum of 2 m vertical separation. If it is located on the same level as other antennas,
the distance apart should be at least 10 m.
For further information, see Figure on page 82.

The GPS antenna should be installed where it has a clear "view" of the sky. The objective is that it should
"see" the horizon freely through 360° with a vertical observation sector of 5...90° above the horizon. Small
diameter obstructions, such as masts and booms, do not seriously degrade signal reception, but such
objects should not eclipse more than a few degrees of any given bearing.
Locate the antenna at least 3 m away from and out of the transmitting beam of high-power transmitters
(S-Band radar and/or Inmarsat systems). This includes the ship’s own AIS VHF antenna.

3.2.4 Recommendations Concerning Redundancy
If possible, the Electronics Unit should be supplied with the ship’s sensor data from two different sources,
e.g. in a dual installation with RADARPILOT 1000 or 1100 the AIS can be supplied with sensor data from
both radars.
NACOS xx-3 only:
If two Ship’s Interfaces are existing because of redundancy purposes, the ship’s sensor output(s) of both
Ship’s Interfaces must be connected to the AIS Electronics Unit.
3.2.5 Recommendations Concerning the Connection of a (D)GPS to AIS 3410
For an AIS stand-alone installation with the connection of an external (D)GPS position sensor, the
following prerequisites must be fulfilled:
NMEA Version
NMEA version 2.01 edition 04/1994 or newer is required. In addition to this, the optional checksum is
required. The AIS requires status information to check the data integrity.
All NMEA versions lower than 2.01 are not allowed for the use with AIS. To verify, that the NMEA version
is 2.01 or higher, check the settings of the GPS sensor.
Data Telegrams
For all NMEA versions lower than 2.3 the GGA message must be transmitted. Only the GGA message
transmits the information, that the differential mode is activated. This is set at the GPS receiver. If this
telegram is not transmitted, it is not indicated that a DGPS is connected to the AIS.
To check, that a DGPS is connected correctly, check the AIS State Menu of the connected RADARPILOT/CHARTRADAR.
3.2.6 Emergency Power Source
It is recommended that an emergency power source such as an uninterruptible power supply is used. See
Section 7 for information about the power consumption of the Electronics Unit.

3.2.8 Recommendations Concerning AIS Stand-alone with Radar 9xxx / NACOS xx-2/-3
An AIS 3410 can be used with an existing Radar 9xxx installation without any additional software update
if the following prerequisites are fulfilled:
All necessary ship’s sensors are connected additionally to the AIS Electronics Unit. The sensors
must be connected directly (a Gyro Converter Unit may be necessary). It is not permissible to
connect the output channels of the Ship’s Interface to the AIS Electronics Unit.
or
Only the heading information may be derived from the Ship’s Interface. For this purpose, at least
one free output channel must be available and the system software must be 039 (or higher) for
NACOS xx-2 or 071 (or higher) for NACOS xx-3.
If the AIS derives it’s position sensor data from the Ship’s Interface, a software update for the complete
navigation system must be performed. The software version must be 096 or higher. Older versions do
not comply to IEC 61162-1 edition 3, 04/2007 (NMEA0183 version 3.01). In these versions source and
status of the position data is not indicated. Such versions must not be used with an AIS.
If the AIS is installed in combination with a MULTIPILOT 91x0 or a CHARTPILOT 9320/9330, the
complete navigation system has to be updated to software version 097A or higher.
NOTE:
CHARTPILOTs with a software version 4.0 or newer require an 8-channel Ship’s Interface.
3.2.9 Recommendations Concerning the Connection to a Radar 1000/1100 Series System
In a single installation, an Analog Interface must be existing to connect the AIS system. In dual or multiple
installations with two Analog Interfaces, the AIS must be connected as follows:
Radar software version ≤ 2.6:
Analog Interface No. 1 (usually at Indicator No. 1)
Radar software version ≥ 2.6.1: Analog Interface No. 2 (usually at Indicator No. 2)
The AIS Electronics Unit must not be connected to both Analog Interfaces!
At a radar with software version 3.0 or newer or a MULTIPILOT 1000, the AIS can be connected also by
means of the Ethernet LAN. In this case, an Analog Interface is not necessary (if it is not needed for an
analog gyro).
3.2.10Recommendations Concerning the Connection to a Radar 1100 Series System
In a single installation, an Analog Interface must be existing to connect the AIS system. In dual or multiple
installations with two Analog Interfaces, the AIS must be connected to Analog Interface No. 2 (usually at
Indicator No. 2).
The AIS Electronics Unit must not be connected to both Analog Interfaces!
The AIS can be connected also by means of the Ethernet LAN. In this case, an Analog Interface is not
necessary (if it is not needed for an analog gyro).

Block diagram of the AIS System
The AIS Electronics Unit contains a VHF radio, a GPS receiver and a Mainboard with the interfaces. The
AIS Electronics Unit has three inputs for the essential ship’s sensor data such as position, speed and
heading. These data are supplied by means of the navigation system such, as a RADARPILOT 1000/
1100. The AIS communicates with the navigation system via the primary display port and/or the Ethernet
LAN. In this way the AIS is supplied with additional data such as the ship’s data, administration data and
configuration data.
The ship’s data, the ship’s sensor data and the position data (from external or internal GPS receiver) are
transmitted via VHF.
In the opposite direction, the corresponding data of other ships equipped with AIS systems are received
by means of the VHF receiver.These data are processed and sent to the navigation system via the
primary display port or the Ethernet LAN.
The functions of the pilot port correspond to the functions of the primary display port, but the pilot port
must be made accessible for pilots on the ship’s bridge. It must not be used for other purposes.
The DSC Receiver receives messages from external stations such as VTS. By means of the DSC
messages, specific settings such as a change of the VHF channels can be controlled.

4.2 Termination
The VHF transmitter/receiver has a limited range. By means of the connection of a long range communication system (such as a satellite communication system) to the long range port, this limitation can be
eliminated. In this way, the AIS can be called to send the ship’s data. The requested data are sent via
the long range port and the long range communication system to the questioner. The operator can decide
whether a long range request is answered or not.
4.2 Termination
The wiring must be done in accordance with Figure 4-2 with 50 Ω coaxial cable (for example inside the
enclosures, RG 58, for ship’s cabling RG 213 / U, see cabling diagrams). The network is a 10 Mbit
network.
The BNC-T plugs must be connected directly into the Ethernet Module. It is not admissible to connect the
T-plug and the network adapter by means of a coaxial cable.
Proper termination with a 50 Ω BNC termination plug at both ends of the Ethernet line is very important.
It is not permissible to use cable with a characteristic impedance different from 50 Ω.
If no cable is connected to the Ethernet connector, it must also be terminated.

Cabling Documents
Grounding
All components of the system have contacts such as bolts or terminals for grounding. Grounding is important for EMC purposes as well as for protecting people’s lives. Both purposes are covered by the
standard grounding of the system’s housings to the ship’s metallic structure (bolted or welded). Regardless of the type of ship’s grounding (e.g. star pattern or ground plane pattern), no potential difference
should be measurable between two different ground connectors. Potential differences cause compensation currents on the cable shields. If the ship has no metallic structure, all conductively connected metallic
parts form an artificial ground.
All ground connections should be as short as possible. If possible, different units should be connected to
individual ground connectors. Whenever possible, metallic housings should be screwed or welded directly
to the ship’s metallic structure. If a safe grounding contact is not ensured, additional conductors are
necessary. Furthermore, all ground connections should have a low RF-impedance, and should be
resistant against vibration and corrosion. Grounding conductors on an open-air deck must be made of
corrosion-protected steel, and inside the ship they must be made of copper.
The grounding should be done in such a way that the connection can be inspected in a convenient
manner.
EMC Purposes
The shields of all cables must be connected at both ends if no other instructions are given.
Protective Ground
All removable metallic parts of the housings are grounded by means of separate, flexible cables to the
main structure of the housing. It is important to connect this ground-cable after parts have been
dismounted or exchanged.
