HOW TO ACTIVATE NAS-1000
1. Take off AIS-SART from the installation bracket.
2. Pull off the red pin and move the operation handle to ON.
3. Check the LED indicator. While LED flashing, AIS-SART is being activated but GPS
position is not available. While LED steadily on, GPS position is available.
4. Check the sound of the internal buzzer. Each audible beep suggests one message is
being transmitted. Usually a burst of eight short beeps can be heard per minute, which
suggests eight messages are transmitted every minute.
5. Hold AIS-SART upright to maximize the transmitting efficiency.
6. Keep AIS-SART as high as possible by using the telescopic pole supplied or hanging
AIS-SART in the life raft by using the rope supplied.
WARNING ：
Do not activate the AIS-SART unless in case of emergency. If the AIS-SART is activated
for any reasons, except for short tests, the battery pack in AIS-SART should be replaced to
maintain enough life of batteries. The red pin should also be replaced because it cannot
restore to its right state after being pulled off.

1. PRODUCT OUTLINE
AIS-SART is an emergency device used for life raft. When activated, AIS-SART will
transmit messages to indicate the position of AIS-SART. The vessels and rescue planes
nearby can receive the position reports sent by AIS-SART to easily locate the life raft in
distress.
NAS-1000 AIS-SART conforms to the requirements set in IMO IMSC 246 (83). As a
part of GMDSS, AIS-SART shares the same role as RADAR-SART (search and rescue
transponder).
RADAR-SART is used to locate a target by signal reflected to a radar. In this case, only
rough position is read on radar screen with bearing.
However,AIS-SART could provide accurate position with built-in GPS receiver, which
can facilitate the rescue work greatly.
AIS-SART transmits on dual AIS channels, CH2087 and CH2088.
The maximum communication range depends on both heights of transmitting antenna
and receiving antenna.
A=2.5(√H+√h) （nm）
Hand hrefer to the heights in meter of antennas above sea.
As required, AIS-SART should cover at least 5nm on the condition that transmitting
antenna at lift raft is 1m high and the receiving antenna 16m high, both above sea level.
Unique identifier (User ID) is used in AIS-SART to ensure the integrity of the VHF data
link. The ID is programmed during production and marked on the case. The ID can not
be changed after programmed unless done by manufacturer.
The ID for an AIS-SART is 970xxyyyy, where xx=manufacturer ID, as 26/28 for NSR;
yyyy =s/n set by manufacturer. For example, 970280008, which is produced by NSR.
When a position report is received with such a MMSI, together with safety message
“SARTACTIVE”, it should be transmitted from anAIS-SART.
