Raymarine VHF Ray 90 Black box AIS 700 adó-vevő (vezetékes kombinált készülékkel, passzív hangszóróval és kábellel)

The Raymarine Ray 90 Black box VHF pack with AIS 700 Tx and Rx includes the main "black box" unit, a wired handset, a passive speaker, and the necessary cables. It also includes the external GA200 GNSS (GPS) antenna with a 10-meter cable.

The Raymarine Ray 90 Black box VHF system is a centralized maritime communication and safety solution. It integrates a powerful VHF transceiver for radio communication and a Raymarine AIS 700 Class B transponder for transmitting and receiving AIS data, thereby improving situational awareness and safety at sea.

A "black box" VHF system is designed for discreet integration. The main unit is installed away from the bridge, typically in a less visible location, freeing up space on the console. Only the handsets and speakers are visible and accessible at the control station, unlike a standard VHF where the main unit is mounted directly on the console.

The integrated AIS 700 system is a Class B AIS transponder, meaning it is both a transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx). It can receive information from AIS-equipped vessels and transmit your vessel’s position and data, thereby increasing your visibility to others.

A Class B AIS transponder offers several advantages for safety at sea:

Increased visibility: Your vessel transmits its position, heading, and speed to other AIS-equipped vessels, reducing collision risks.Situational awareness: You receive data from surrounding vessels, allowing you to view their positions on your multifunction display and better anticipate situations.Vessel identification: You can identify vessels by their name or MMSI number.

Yes, the included external GNSS (GPS) antenna GA200 is compatible with GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo satellite systems. This ensures precise and reliable positioning reception.

The main unit of the Ray 90 Black Box VHF radio must be installed away from the helm station. Its "black box" design allows it to be mounted in a discreet location, freeing up space on the console for other instruments.

The system requires two types of antennas to operate fully:

A VHF antenna for radio communication and AIS. An external GNSS (GPS) antenna for positioning, such as the GA200 model provided.

The GNSS GA200 antenna must be mounted in a location with a clear, unobstructed view of the entire sky, including the horizon. It can be mounted on a flat horizontal surface or on a mast with a 1-inch 14 TPI thread. It must be kept at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from other antennas and electronic equipment, and must not be mounted in the direct path of a radar beam or inside an engine room.

The GA200 GNSS antenna comes with a 10-meter captive cable. The cable length can be extended by up to an additional 10 meters, for a maximum total length of 20 meters. For the extension, it is mandatory to use an RG58-Type 50-ohm coaxial cable and reliable connectors providing waterproof protection.

Configuring the MMSI number is a crucial and mandatory step before the first use of the system. It is performed via a PC (personal computer) and the ProAIS2 software, which can be downloaded from Raymarine's website. In the United States, the MMSI number must be programmed by a qualified dealer or installer.

The system requires a 50Ω wideband VHF antenna operating in the 156 to 162 MHz frequency range. It must have a maximum gain of 3 dBi and a maximum VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) of 2:1 for optimal performance.

For optimal EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) performance, it is recommended to:

Place Raymarine equipment and cables at least 1 metre (3.3 feet) away from any equipment transmitting radio signals (VHF, antennas). For HF radios, this distance must be increased to 2 metres (6.6 feet).Keep them more than 2 metres (6.6 feet) away from the path of a radar beam.Power the product from a separate battery from the one used for engine starting.Use the cables specified by Raymarine and avoid cutting or extending them unless detailed in the installation manual.

The Ray 90 Black box system with AIS 700 is compatible with a wide range of Raymarine multifunction displays (MFD), including the Axiom 2, Axiom, gS, eS, aSeries, eSeries, and cSeries series. It is also compatible with i70/i70s instruments.

Yes, the Ray 90 Black box system provides extended connectivity. It is compatible with NMEA 2000 (via SeaTalkng®) and NMEA 0183 networks, making it easy to integrate with a wide range of multifunction displays and other marine equipment.

The GA200 is an external-only GNSS (GPS/GLONASS) antenna. It is not a complete receiver. It requires connection to an MFD, an AIS device, or a compatible VHF radio with an internal GNSS receiver to function.

To register ownership of your Raymarine product, you must visit the official Raymarine website (www.raymarine.com) and register online. Registering your product is important to fully benefit from warranty coverage. Your unit's packaging includes a barcode label with the unit's serial number, which you will need to provide during registration.

Yes, Raymarine recommends installation by a Raymarine-certified installer. Certified installation provides enhanced warranty benefits for the product. Contact your Raymarine dealer for further details.

Yes, the Ray 90 Black box system with AIS 700 supports a silent mode. A connection for a silent mode switch is available, allowing you to enable or disable AIS transmission as needed.
