This means that all AIS messages (received and transmitted) are
recorded along with GPS information.
You do not need to take specific precautions regarding the recording.
Simply insert the SD card into the slot until you hear the snap. The
easyTRX2S starts recording automatically.
However, it is required to format the SD card with the Programming
tool at the first start. See "Chapter 18.5 SD card".
The user may analyze the recorded data with a specific PC software or
logbook software, which displays your own movement and the
movement of other adjacent ships.
If previous recordings exist on the card the new data is simply
attached. If the memory space on the SD card is full the oldest data is
overwritten successively. No data will be lost by switching off the
easyTRX2S. If you remove the SD card during recording some data
might be lost. Thus we recommend switching the easyTRX2S off before
removing the SD card.
Usage of SD cards up to 32 GB is possible. SD cards with more memory
space are not supported. We recommend SD cards of the brand
"SanDisk" for best compatibility and reliability. With a SD card
recording for 100 days in high frequented areas is possible (e.g.
Rotterdam port) in less frequented areas of course considerably more.
Please find the analyzer „SD Analysis" on the enclosed CD-ROM. The
software is absolutely self-explanatory and easy to use. Therefore we
will not go into details about this software.
To analyze the data you have to remove the SD card from your TRX2S
device and then put it into the card reader of your PC.
For programming of the device and the SD card software there is a
separate quick guide. We would be happy to send it to you via email.
You can also download it from our Website.
A GPS signal is necessary for the AIS data analysis as the information
regarding position and time are mandatory.
