Detailed description

SIMRAD V3100 on AIS-klassi B transponder, mis kasutab SOTDMA-tehnoloogiat (Self-Organising Time Division Multiple Access). See on mõeldud nõudlikele navigatsioonikollegadele, nii professionaalidele kui ka harrastajatele, pakkudes oluliselt paremat turvalisust ja jõudlust võrreldes klassi B AIS-transponderitega, mis kasutavad CSTDMA-tehnoloogiat.

SOTDMA-tehnoloogia: suurenenud turvalisus ja jõudlus

Võrreldes CSTDMA-tehnoloogiaga (Carrier-Sense), mis ootab vaba edastusaja kohta, kasutab SOTDMA automaatselt organiseeritud pääsuskeemi, sarnane klassi A AIS-süsteemidega. See tagab andmete töökindla edastamise, isegi tiheda laevatrafi korral. 5W väljundvõimsusega (võrreldes klassikaliste 2W CSTDMA-seadmetega) tagab V3100 oluliselt suurema tuvastamis- ja edastuskauguse. Lisaks on dünaamiliste andmete uuendussagedus oluliselt kõrgem, saavutades 5-sekundilise intervalli kiirusel üle 23 sõlme, võrreldes klassikalise 30-sekundilise intervalliga CSTDMA-seadmetes. See reageerimisvõime on kriitiliselt tähtis kokkupõrgete ärahoidmiseks.

Täielik ühenduvus ja lihtne paigaldus

V3100 on disainitud olemasolevate navigeerimissüsteemidega sujuvaks integreerimiseks. See pakub täielikku ühenduvust, sisaldades NMEA 2000 (Micro-C) porti plug-and-play paigalduseks, kaks NMEA 0183 porti vanemate seadmetega ühilduvuse tagamiseks ning veekindla USB Mini-B porti seadistamiseks. Vaikimisi režiim võimaldab peatada edastuse, säilitades AIS-andmete vastuvõtu, ning seda saab aktiveerida välise lüliti või Navico mitmefunktsioonilise ekraani kaudu NMEA 2000 võrgustikus.

Kõva merekeskkonna disain

Kõige karmimate mereolude vastu välja töötatud V3100 kest on sertifitseeritud IP67 standardiga, tagades täieliku kaitse tolmu ja vee vastu. Seade töötab temperatuurivahemikus -15°C kuni +55°C ning omab madalat energiatarvet, keskmiselt alla 3W 12V alalisvoolu juures. Seadmesse on integreeritud 50-kanaline GPS-vastuvõtja täpse asukohaandmete tagamiseks ning see ühendatakse välise VHF-antenniga standardse SO-239 ühendusega.

« SOTDMA 5W: AIS Class B with Class A Performance »

The SIMRAD V3100 transponder represents a significant advancement in accessible safety for non-SOLAS vessels. Its main advantage lies in the adoption of SOTDMA technology, which positions it well above traditional Class B CSTDMA transponders. In practice, this translates to transmission reliability nearly equivalent to that of a Class A, as the V3100 reserves its transmission slots in advance, eliminating the risk of not being "heard" in high-traffic areas. The 5W power, combined with this intelligent transmission management, ensures optimal range and visibility. Its dual compatibility with NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183 ensures easy integration into any electronic architecture, whether modern or older. It is a robust unit, rated IP67 and with low power consumption, designed for long-term reliability, making it a strategic investment for offshore sailors, racers, and small commercial vessels.

Frequently asked questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the main difference between this SOTDMA AIS and a standard Class B AIS?

The main difference lies in the transmission technology. The V3100 uses SOTDMA (Self-Organising Time Division Multiple Access) technology, the same as Class A AIS units. This allows it to reserve transmission slots, ensuring your data is sent even in high-traffic areas. It also offers:

Higher transmission power: 5 watts, compared to 2 watts for standard AIS (CSTDMA).Faster update rate: up to every 5 seconds depending on speed, compared to 30 seconds for CSTDMA.

How can I connect the V3100 to my other navigation instruments?

The V3100 offers comprehensive connectivity to integrate with your system:

NMEA 2000: A Micro-C port for simple, modern connection to most multifunction displays. NMEA 0183: Two ports to ensure compatibility with older equipment. USB: A waterproof Mini-B port, primarily used for initial configuration via a computer.

What electrical power supply does this device require?

The AIS transponder V3100 is designed to operate on a 12V or 24V DC electrical system, making it compatible with the vast majority of recreational and professional boats.

How often is my position transmitted to other vessels?

The transmission frequency of dynamic data (position, speed, heading) varies depending on your vessel’s speed:

Over 23 knots: every 5 seconds.Between 14 and 23 knots: every 15 seconds.Between 2 and 14 knots: every 30 seconds.Under 2 knots, at anchor or moored: every 3 minutes.

Can I disable my vessel's position transmission while still viewing others?

Yes, the V3100 has a silent mode. When enabled, the device stops transmitting your vessel's data but continues to receive all AIS data from surrounding boats. The 'Tx/Silent' LED lights up solid orange to indicate this mode is active.

Which types of antenna connectors are required for the installation?

The device requires two antennas and uses the following connectors:

VHF antenna: One standard SO-239 connector (female). GPS antenna: One SMA connector. An adapter is included to facilitate the connection.

Is the V3100 compatible with older equipment using only NMEA 0183?

Yes, absolutely. The V3100 is equipped with two NMEA 0183 ports, allowing it to communicate with chartplotters, autopilots, or other older instruments that do not have NMEA 2000 connectivity.

What is the power consumption of the V3100?

The V3100 is designed to be energy-efficient. Its typical power consumption is below 3 watts on average with a 12V DC power supply.

How do I program my MMSI number in the device?

Programming your MMSI number, as well as other static vessel data (name, dimensions, etc.), is done by connecting the V3100 to a computer via its Mini-B USB port. You will need to use the provided configuration software to enter this information.

Is this AIS Class A or Class B?

The Simrad V3100 is an AIS Class B transponder. However, it uses SOTDMA technology, which is normally reserved for Class A devices, giving it performance far superior to traditional Class B AIS (CSTDMA).

What does the solid red LED indicate on the device?

A solid red error LED indicates that the MMSI number has not been programmed into the device. The AIS cannot transmit without a valid MMSI. You must configure it using the provided software.

Which communication networks are supported by the V3100?

The V3100 supports the two most common marine communication protocols: NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183. This ensures broad compatibility with both modern and older navigation equipment.

What does the flashing green "Tx/Silent" LED mean?

The flashing green "Tx/Silent" LED indicates that the device is actively transmitting AIS data. The blink rate varies depending on your vessel's speed, reflecting the frequency of position updates.

Do you need to install drivers to use the USB port on a computer?

Yes, to have your computer recognize the AIS V3100 when connected via USB, you will need to install the USB drivers. These are usually included on the software CD provided with the device.
