While the latest Class A AIS transponders (like the Digital DeepSea CLA2000) already have a wireless interface for iPad and tablet connectivity the majority of vessels have an AIS transponder with either a integral or externally wired “Pilot Plug” interface. This IMO standard multi pin design allows NMEA AIS and GPS data to be easily accessed by pilots delivery captains etc. via a wired connection like our Pilot Plug USB Cable to their personal PC based ECDIS system. However more and more captains now choose to use an iPad or tablet so need wireless connectivity. PilotLINK 2 our latest second generation pilot plug to wireless interface allows any Class A transponder to interface with the latest range of mobile devices including iPhones tablets and PCs/MACs. Applications range from maritime pilots through to survey ship charter users who may want access to the ship’s AIS and GPS data. This compact device is easily portable between vessels with a USB cable for power and a Pilot Plug cable to connect to the transponder. Its 2.4GHz wireless interface creates its own password protected wireless network or can be configured to join an existing wireless network onboard the vessel. Set up of PilotLINK 2 is simple by accessing its local web interface using the web browser on your mobile device. Change the default wireless network name and password display the GPS heading and rate of turn data or check the Static and Voyage data programmed in to the transponder.
