Silent mode
An external switch enables / disables ‘silent mode'. In silent mode the transmission of your own vessel position ceases, whilst the reception of other vessel's AIS position continues. When silent mode is active the blue LED indicator will be illuminated. This is also reflected in the Diagnostics tab of proAIS2 or in CONNECT-AIS.
| CAUTION | |
| When silent mode is active other vessels will not be able to receive your vessel information on their AIS devices. Your navigational safety may be compromised as a result. |
Connect the toggle switch between the light green and orange wires as shown in Figure 22. This is optional and not essential for normal operation of the product.
| WARNING | |
| Do not connect a voltage source across the switch inputs as this may damage the transceiver. |
