NAB-1000 USER’S MANUAL

1. OUTLINE AIS is the abbreviation for Automatic Identification System, which is of a radio communication system working with TDMA technology. Generally there are three types of AIS transponders: Shipbone AIS transponder ( class A and class B) AIS base station transponder AtoN AIS transponder AIS’s communication modes include SOTDMA, RATDMA, ITDMA, FATDMA and CSTDMA, which are used for different terminals and different applications. NAB-1000 is class B AIS transponder using CSTDMA technology, which can be used for coastal vessels, fishing vessels and river vessels, except SOLAS vessels. NAB-1000 includes two TDMA/DSC receivers, one TDMA transmitter, which can work on two default channels or any other marine channels remotely set by base stations. NAB-1000 can communicate with any other class A transponders, class B transponders, AtoN transponders and AIS base stations conforming to such international rules as IEC 62287-1, IEC61108-1, IEC 60945, IEC 61162-1, ITU-R M.1371-3, ITU-R M. 825-3.

2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.1. PRODUCT COMPOSITION NAB-1000 is composed of one TDMA transmitter, two TDMA/DSC receivers, one AIS processor, one CPU, one GPS module, one PSU and an interface board. NAB-1000 can work on two channels independently and simultaneously.

2.2. WORKING CHANNELS NAB-1000 can work on two of all marine channels of 25kHz bandwidth. The default channels are CH2087 and CH2088. It will change to other channels whenever a telecommand of Message 22 is received from a base station.

2.3. INTERNAL GPS MODULE An internal GPS module is included in NAB-1000 to provide position source, COG and SOG data. The position accuracy will be improved significantly as DGPS level when a correction data is received from a base station in Message 17. Class B AIS won’t transmit either dynamic data or static data until GPS position signal is available. The only exception is that it will transmit a position report once polled by a base station, even if GPS signal in unavailable.

MMSI, Name of ship, Type of ship, STATIC

Vendor ID, Call sign, dimensions of ship

and integrity status,Time in UTC, COG,

Speed≤2kt：3 min

SOG, True heading (optional) NOTE: 1. NAB-1000 can be remotely controlled to change the reporting interval between 5s and 10 min or set into silent mode by a nearby base station which broadcasts a telecommand in MESSAGE 23. 2. The default value is set 37 (yacht) for type of vessel, as for factory default. 3. The default value is set 00000000 for MMSI, as for factory default. In such case, the transmission is prohibited unless MMSI is set other than 000000000. 4. The first report of dynamic data after powered on depends on the current status of NAB-1000. The NAB-1000 shall start transmitting position reports within: cold start: 30 min; warm start (if off for less than 1 h): 5 min; short signal loss (GNSS signal lost for less than 5 min): resume within a time of twice the reporting interval.

2.5. INDICATOR DESCRIPTION There are five LED indicators on the front panel of NAB-1000: GPS, RX, TX, ALM and T-OUT. LED

DESCRIPTION

When GPS off, no power is supplied. When GPS flashing in GPS

green, GPS position is not available. When GPS steadily on in green, GPS position is available. When RX flashing in green, AIS message is being received. RX

RX

will flash once when an AIS message is received. Usually more quickly RX flashs, more AIS targets nearby or better sensitivity. When TX flashing in red, AIS data is transmitted. As

TX

NAB-1000 transmits every 30 seconds or 3 minutes, it’s not easy to identify a transmission by sight.

ALM When ALM on in red, an error is detected inside the equipment. T-OUT

When T-OUT on in red, a scheduled transmission has not been sent out during last two reporting intervals.

2.6. DATA PORTS There are two data ports for external interfaces. One is PI/1 RS232 and the other is PI/2 RS422. Both conform to IEC61162-1 standard.

4. INSTALLATION 4.1. GPS ANTENNA INSTALLATION Refer to the attached diagram when installing the GPS antenna. The following instructions are helpful: Keep the antenna from the beam sector of radar radiation. The radar beam could damage the GPS antenna or affect the reception. Keep the antenna open in all directions to the sky. The obstacle such as mast can block the signal or prolong the seraching time. Keep the antenna as high as possible. The sea water could affect the reception if iced. The coaxial cable between the transponder and the GPS antenna will be supplied with 10m in length as standard. Watertight treatment is required for outdoor connecting.

4.2. VHF ANTENNA INSTALLATION It’s very important to choose a proper location for VHF antenna as a metal object close to the antenna could affect receiving sensitivity. The following instructions are helpful: The antenna should be kept at least 0.5m from a vertical metal object to avoid RF reflection. The antenna should be kept at least 3m from other high power radiator, such as radar antenna. Two VHF antennas should not be installed at the same height. The AIS VHF antenna can be installed either under or above the existing VHF antenna. The distance between should be more than 2.8m. If two antennas have to be installed at the same height, the distance between should be more than 10m.

7

NAB-1000 OM.C 20160321-04


For the cabling, please refer to below suggestions:

-

The shorter the cable, the less the loss. The low-loss cable is recommended if the cable is longer than 10m. Watertight treatment is required for outdoor connecting. The RF cable should be kept at least 10cm from the power cable. The cable cross should be avoided.

Caution:

The 12V on Pin 1/2 is only used for KDU supplied by the manufacturer. Any other external equipment is prohibited to use that power otherwise extra load may be added to the internal PSU of NAB-1000, which could damage the equipment.

4.5. INITIALIZATION SETTING When the installation is completed, the initialization setting is requred. The settings include MMSI, name of ship, call sign, type of ship, dimensions of ship and reference for position. Special KDU unit for setting or a PC installed with special program is needed. Before initialization setting, the MMSI was set as 000000000 as factory default, in which case, transmission is disabled.

5. MAINTENANCE 5.1. PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE The periodical maintenance is necessary to maintain the performance. Monthly maintenance program should be established and includes minimum items as shown in the below table. ITEM

Connector Cable Ground Terminal Ground Wire

Transponder Unit

CHECK POINT

Inspect that all connectors on the rear panel of the transponder unit are firmly fitted. Inspect the cables. Replace if damaged. Inspect the ground terminal being in rust. If necessary, clean. Ensure that the ground wire is firmly fastened. Dirt and dust should be removed from the transponder unit with a piece of soft dry cloth. Do not use solvents such as thinner, acetone or benzene for cleaning,which can remove paint and marks and deform the equipment.

5.2. POWER ON/OFF The ON/OFF switch for power on the rear panel of the transponder should be Off when internal fault or over current is detected. Locate the cause before switching on the power again.
