f) Long Range Interrogation
Mobile, and shore-based stations have the ability to interrogate vessels and make requests for information
over the “Long Range Interface”. The interrogated vessel can either reply in automatic, or in manual mode.
The interrogation request is displayed in both modes.
The arrival of a Long Range Interrogation Request is indicated by:
1L on the top right hand corner of the Navigation Screen. The LRI automatically arrives in the Message
Inbox LRI and can be handled from there.

AIS status of the other vessels, which are displayed in the Vessel Listing.
Version Info provides details of the actual software release currently installed. Security Log traces the
downtimes of the Transponder, to ensure that periods of down time when the transponder is out of order or
lacking electricity can be traced.

GPS Antenna Mounting
It is important to input the exact mounting position of the GPS Antenna on the vessel as this influences the
accuracy of the displayed target in an ECDIS.
(RefPntExt:) = The position of any external positioning device (GPS Antenna) used as primary position
source.
(RefPntInt:) = The position of the GPS Antenna (fallback device in case primary source is disabled).
After antenna installation, the distance from the sides must be measured and input.
Either the distance from the vessel’s bow (a) or the stern (b) and starboard (d) and backboard (c) are
required.
e.g. A vessel with the following dimensions:
Length: 100m
Beam: 20m
Input: A90C5 - then press Enter or
B10D15 - then press Enter
Result:
RefPtExt: A90 B10 C5 D15m
The GlobalWatch™ UAIS automatically calculates the missing distances (a) or (b) and (c) or (d) - based on
the vessel’s length and beam.
Note:
When receiving position data from large vessels, it should be considered that the position refers to the
antenna mounting point upon the vessel. To ensure accurate navigation, the antenna reference points (see
Other Vessels Details) should be taken into consideration when determining the vessels position.
Also, the electronic chart display in use should be programmed to consider the antenna reference points.
Traffic images are represented in true distances only when all displayed targets, including own vessel, are
working with AIS position information, which considers Antenna reference points.

Sample:
Display:
CallSign = D11233
ShipName = M/V TUGELA
Length = 20m
Beam = 30m
RefPointExt = A170 B30 C15 D15m (location of the external GPS antenna)
RefPointInT = A170 B30 C9 D11m (location of the internal GPS antenna)
ShipType = Tug
With the up/down keys you may move from line to line and input the correct data. The last line “ShipType:“
must be selected by actuating the left/right keys out of the pool of all possible types. Actuate “Enter”
Special is the setting of the GPS antenna position:
The first settings which have to be entered are Length and Beam of the ship in meters.
Next step: enter 2 values more per location to specify the distance from the bow and from the side.
Distances are to be set in meters.
A = the distance from bow to the antenna
B= the distance from the antenna to the stern
C = the distance from the port side to the antenna
D = the distance from the antenna to the starboard side
Example: Length =200m, A = 160m, Beam = 30m, D = 15m
Move with Up/down keys to the Length line. Type 200, actuate “Enter”
Move one line down. Type 30, actuate “Enter”
RefPtExt and RefPtInt both show “N/A” now.
Only one of the length values A or B must be entered and one of the width values C or D.
For our example in the RefPtExt – line type as follows:
A160D15 (without spaces)
Actuate “Enter”
The full line as shown will be displayed: RefPtExt: A160 B40 C15 D15m
B and C are calculated by the AIS.
Do the same with the RefPtInt – line
Actuate soft key “Save”
Display: Data Saved

A Region is a defined area, with specific VHF parameters, which are sent out by Vessel Traffic Service
Stations (VTS), and received via Digital Selective Calling (DSC) or AIS.
The screen shows a list of Regions, and their input sources. When the vessel enters into one of the predefined Regions, the GlobalWatch™ UAIS automatically switches to the relevant Region Setting. If a Region
Number is vacant, then the relevant Region Name Slot is currently unoccupied.
Tip: For fast Region Selection, press the Region Number on the keyboard and the selected region is

System Reaction / Remedy
Reaction: The transponder unit stops transmission. If Alarm ID 01 and
ID 02 are simultaneously displayed, then a major antenna problem has
arisen.
Remedy:
Check if the antenna is AIS compatible (156-162 MHz) and if the
antenna cabling has a short circuit or is missing any contacts at the
connectors.
If the ID 01 is displayed as a stand-alone message, then the unit
requires replacing.
Reaction: The transponder unit continues transmission.
Remedy:
Check the antenna and the antenna cabling (RG214 / 50 Ohm cable
required).
Reaction: The transponder unit stops transmission on the affected
channel,
Remedy:
If this alarm reoccurs regularly, then the transponder unit requires
replacing.
Reaction: The transponder unit stops transmission.
Remedy:
The transponder unit requires replacing.
Reaction: The transponder unit continues operation using the position
data of the internal GPS. If there is no valid position data available from
the internal GPS, error 026 is additionally displayed.
Remedy:
ID 25 indicates that the sentences GLL, GNS, GGA, RMC cannot be
received. Check the sensor and the cabling; check if the system that
delivers the data is working. Check the baud rate settings of the sensor
inputs. AIS requires the protocol NMEA 0183 V3.0!

heading only (no magnetic).
Reaction: The transponder unit continues operation
Remedy:
The sentence for ROT cannot be received. If a Rate Of Turn indicator is
not in use, then it suffices to just acknowledge the alarm. The Alarm
Status will store the information that no ROT sensor is available.
Otherwise, check the sensor and the cabling. Check if the system that
delivers the data is working. Check the baud rate settings of the sensor
inputs. AIS requires the protocol NMEA 0183 V3.0!
