The Weatherdock easyAIS IS is an important means of navigation on the Rhine, as the commercial vessels are getting faster and faster and are reliably detected on confusing routes.
Excellent option for those looking for an all-in-one solution of NMEA data receiver NMEA receiver AIS and VHF antenna splitter that distributes the signal for VHF and radioFM broadcasting AIS. The installation is simple and the device started working perfectly once connected to the 12V network. For those interested, this device is connected to the NMEA network with a GPS Garmin 420 windmill equipment TackTick and iPad with iSailor software
Der EasyAIS-Empfänger wurde bestellt und am nächsten Tag bereits von der Post geliefert. Das Gerät mit Splitter und WLAN funktioniert in Verbindung mit meinem Bord-Netbook hervorragend. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Service-Hotline des Herstellers. Konfigurationsprobleme wurden mit viel Geduld von einem Service-Techniker telefonisch gelöst. Ich kann dieses Gerät bedenkenlos empfehlen.
Das Gerät ist handlich, braucht wenig Strom und ist leicht zu befestigen und anzuschließen. Es läuft problemlos mit meinem Standard Horizon - CP300i. Man benötigt noch ein PL-PL Verbindungskabel und ein BNC auf Radioantennenbuchse Verbindungskabel(Beides nicht in der Lieferung enthalten). Die Datenübertragung auf ein Laptop ist simpel. Klare Kaufempfehlung!
Supergerät, leicht zu installieren, auch die Software. Die große Bandbreite der Betriebsspannung von 9-28Volt ist sehr gut. Betribsanleitung auch in deutsch. Sehr gutes Preisleistungsverhältnis.
All-in-one right choice. Solución completa de calidad
Since a year ago I was looking for a Wi-Fi AIS receiver. After reading a lot of forums, magazines,... I decided to get easyAIS-IS. I´ve successfully installed within a NMEA net composed by a GARMIN 420 gps, SILVAdsc10 VHF, TackTick wireless wind/eco, Raymarine autopilot and JVC radar. The installation was easy and the unit work flawless since was powered. Is remarkable the splitter (both VHF and AIS reception are perfect) and multiplexing incoming NMEA data (both my iPad and 420garmin receive all AIS, wind, course etc.. data). And as a free goods you can also connect your FM radio. All in one at affordable price. Recommendable
Wie immer schnelle Lieferung, Installation ging gut, funktioniert bestens. Was mir fehlt ist ein einfaches Programm für PC zur Anzeige der Daten über USB. Auch der Umweg über einen virtuellen COM Port ist für den einfachen Anwender nicht zumutbar, deswegen nur 4Sterne
It sure is a nice device. Only the product description was misleading for me: "The AIS data can be displayed on either an AIS compatible chart plotter or PC software." An AIS compatible plotter is too accurate. My plotter Geonav 7 wide net is AIS capable. However, it does not work with the easy-AIS-IS, since the baud rate of the easy-ais-is is 38,000, but the plotter only manages 4,800 baud!! I was therefore forced to exchange the easy-ais-is for the "old" easy-ais-2nd generation", with all the disadvantages: 1. no integrated splitter 2. no USB port for the PC 3. total configuration approx. 50 € more expensive! 4. The additional efforts - info - return exchange etc. Therefore I can't actually give any rating for the device in question! Note. SVB: Basically the objection/contribution is correct. The statement AIS-capable plotter - in the In the specification for AIS, the baud rate (transmission speed) from the receiver to the plotter is expressly named as 38,400 characters per second. A reduction in the transmission speed to 4,800 characters per second is fundamentally possible and was also justifiable in the first "AIS years". Not so many ships with AIS transponders have been on the road for a while, but now every cutter, coaster, small ferry, etc. has to be equipped with an AIS transmitter and the transmission speed has to be reduced in sea areas with high traffic density means that the destinations are no longer displayed on the plotter. If the skipper now relies on his AIS receiver or on the display in the plotter, it may well be that a big pot appears in front of his nose, but this is not displayed. In the past, some plotters of older generations were beefed up with AIS software without, however, making the necessary modifications to the hardware and the interfaces (increase from 4,800 baud to 38,400 baud).
