The FA-30 delivers “Real-Time” AIS information to navigation systems providing critical collision avoidance information in all weather conditions.
Acquisition and tracking of traffic around your vessel is absolutely necessary for safe and efficient navigation. FURUNO’s FA-30 AIS Receiver provides navigational data about other AIS-equipped vessels, increasing your situational awareness and allowing you to navigate more safely.
The FA-30 incorporates real-time AIS information into your radar, chart plotter.
AIS targets are displayed with SOG/COG vector, which aids you in recognizing possible collisions and grasp the navigational situation at a glance, even in congested waterways. Closest Point of Approach (CPA) and Time to Closest Point of Approach (TCPA) can be computed and displayed on-screen.
The FA-30 outputs AIS data to NavNet series. The FA-30 can also be interfaced with a FURUNO radar or chart plotter via NMEA0183 format to supplement those systems.
