AIS equipment. The ATB1 must always be used in conjunction with the supplied GPS anten- na. Use of an alternative GPS antenna may impair the functionality of the system. -
Page 5: Atb1 Overview
The fully compliant ATB1 is a Class B type AIS Transponder from Ocean Signal. Your vessel information such as position, speed, and course is ascertained automatically and contin- uously using an internal multi-GNSS receiver and transmitted to all other AIS equipped vessels to maximum of every two seconds. -

The power/data cable plug is the disconnect device, unplugging this will isolate the ATB1 from both poles of the power source. It is also recommended that the unit can be accessed later to view the indicator LED and operate the Mode button. - Page 8 DO NOT cut the GPS Antenna cable. Neatly coil and tie any excess cable After fixing the GPS antenna to an appropriate location, route the 10m cable to your AIS transceiver unit, adding extension cable as necessary. Connect the cable to the GPS con- nector on the ATB1. 912S-02692-1.11 18/07/2022...

ATB1 USER MANUAL Connections Item Connector VHF (SO239) Power/Data GPS Antenna (TNC) NMEA2000 LED Indicator Button USB (Micro-B) To avoid damage to the cables, ensure at least 50mm (2.0 inches) is avail- able below the Transceiver to allow the cables to turn. - Page 10 If the vessel is equipped with a single VHF antenna that is required to be shared between the ATB1 and a VHF Radio Transceiver it is necessary to use an active antenna splitter. Attempting to connect two transmitting devices to a single antenna without a splitter will cause severe damage to either or both devices.
- Page 11 PINK 4800 The ATB1 includes 2 bidirectional NMEA 0183 ports. The baud rate for each port can be configured via the set-up application. Both ports can be multiplexed to enable GPS data provided to one port to be combined with AIS data and output on the other port.

Page 12: Configuration
If your vessel already has an MMSI number (used for a VHF DSC radio) then the same MMSI number must be used to program the transceiver. If a valid MMSI number is not entered, the ATB1 will not transmit although it will still oper- ate as a receiver. -
