AIS Class B Transponder

Unlike a black box AIS module that requires an external chartplotter, the MA-510TR integrates its own dedicated screen. This allows for direct and autonomous reading of surrounding targets and maritime traffic.

The ICOM MA-510TR transponder transmits at a power of 2 W on dedicated maritime frequencies (from 161.500 to 162.025 MHz), ensuring your visibility to other vessels.

This device adapts to all marine electrical networks. It is compatible with 12 V or 24 V DC power supply, with a tolerance ranging from 9.6 to 31.2 V.

Yes, the transponder comes with an external 72-channel GPS antenna (1575.42 MHz frequency). It is supplied with a cable of approximately 10 meters to facilitate its installation on board.

Absolutely. It features dual network compatibility:

NMEA 2000NMEA 0183This allows for the multiplexing of AIS and GPS data to a multifunction chartplotter or radar.

The device integrates several advanced safety functions:

Configurable anti-collision alarms (CPA and TCPA)Anchor alarmManagement of dangerous targets

The power consumption is very limited. It is 1.5 A maximum when transmitting on a 12 V network.

The housing is designed to be compact. Its dimensions (excluding protrusions) are 166.2 x 110.2 x 92.5 mm (width x height x depth).

Yes, the interface offers advanced target management. You can create a list of friends to quickly identify boats you know directly on the screen.

Yes, the transponder is equipped with a USB port (mini-B type). This allows sending received AIS messages and GPS data to navigation software on a computer.

To be identified on the AIS network, you must program your 9-digit MMSI code into the device, as well as your own vessel's data (name, boat type, dimensions).

The display offers 4 main screen types to suit your needs:

Standard AIS screenAIS and Bearing screenAIS and Route screenSimple Route screen

Yes, the 72-channel external GPS receiver is compatible with WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS, and GAGAN differential corrections, thus offering maximum positioning accuracy.

Yes, it is strongly recommended to connect the device to the boat's ground (negative ground) to avoid interference with other electronic equipment and prevent electrical risks.

Yes, you can configure the display according to your preferences. You can choose to display all targets, only dangerous targets, or only your friends.

Yes, the transponder can receive and display specific icons for distress targets, including AIS-SART, AIS-MOB (man overboard), and AIS-EPIRB.

To connect it to a PC, you will need a USB Type A to Mini-B cable. Please note that this cable must be provided by the user as it is not included as standard.

The system constantly calculates the CPA (Closest Point of Approach) and TCPA (Time to Closest Point of Approach). If a vessel crosses the limits you have set (from 1 to 60 minutes), the device automatically triggers an alarm.
