Warning:
If the USB connection is removed from the PC or
Mac during use, you must reset the connection before further
use. To reset the connection: disconnect, then re-apply power to

between the PC or Mac and the AIS transceiver.
Step 9 - Connection to a power supply
The AIS transceiver requires a 12V or 24V power supply, typically
provided by the vessel’s battery. It is recommended that crimped
and soldered lugs are used to connect the AIS transceiver to the
power source. It is recommended that the power supply is con-
nected via a suitable circuit breaker and/or 3A fuse block.
