Matrix Fixed Mount VHF w/AIS & GPS - Class D DSC - 30W - WhiteThe GX2200 Matrix AIS/GPS features a 66 channel WAAS GPS antenna integrated into the front panel of the radio, now there is no need to hassle with wiring the radio to a GPS for DSC (Digital Selective Calling) or AIS (Automated Identification System). Out of the box and ready to go, acquiring AIS and AIS SART targets, DSC calling, position sharing, waypoint navigation, and navigation to DSC distress calls can all be performed with just a few simple steps. The MATRIX AIS/GPS displays AIS target information (MMSI, Call Sign, Ship Name, BRG, DST, SOG and COG) allows you to contact an AIS Ship directly using DSC, shows your vessels position in relation to AIS targets and alerts you when an AIS ship may be approaching too close to your location via the Closest Point of Approach (CPA) Alarm. One antenna input is all that is needed since the MATRIX AIS/GPS utilizes the VHF antenna to receive AIS targets from ships class A or B AIS transponders. The MATRIX AIS/GPS features an 80dB commercial grade receiver with Local/Distance attenuator, ITU Class D DSC, powerful 30 Watt PA/Loud Hailer with listen back and preprogrammed fog signals. Other great features include; diecast chassis for durability, user-changeable channel names, optional voice scrambler, ClearVoice noise canceling speaker microphone, 4.5 Watt audio output, NOAA Weather Alert, Programmable Scan, Priority Scan and Dual Watch. The MATRIX AIS/GPS is also capable of entering and saving up to 100 waypoints, which may be selected and navigated to by using a unique navigation compass display that shows your vessels SOG, COG, BRG (Bearing) and DST (Distance) to the waypoint. The MATRIX AIS/GPS is capable of being connected to a RAM3 Remote Access Microphone, allowing full control of all VHF, DSC and hailer functions remotely as well as adding an intercom between the radio and second station microphone. Another unique feature is the ability of the MATRIX AIS/GPS to "poll" (request and send) the GPS LAT/LON of another vessel and show the vessel's position on the radio's alphanumeric display or send the data to a compatible GPS chart plotter to be viewed directly on the chart. This is a great feature for maintaining contact with fishing or cruising "buddy" boats. The MATRIX AIS/GPS also has the capability of sending all AIS target information to a chart plotter via high speed NMEA data connection. The MATRIX AI/GPS is backed by an industry leading 3-year waterproof warranty.Features:Integrated 66 Channel WAAS GPS antennaAIS / AIS SART target display: MMSI, Call Sign, Ship Name, BRG, DST, SOG and COG4800 or 38400 NMEA baud rate selection, for plotters with 1 NMEA portTrue and Magnetic bearing selection on AIS displayContact Class A or B AIS Ship with DSCProgrammable CPA or TCPA collision avoidance alarmsMeets ITU-R M493-13 Class D DSC (Digital Selective Calling)Submersible IPX7 (3.3 feet or 1 meter for 30 minutes) front panel80dB Commercial grade receiverDSC position request and report functions30 Watt PA/Loud Hailer with preprogrammed fog signals and listen backClearVoice noise canceling speaker microphone with channel selection and 16/9 keyGPS Compass, Waypoint and GPS status pagesNavigation (LAT/LON, Time, SOG and COG) information shown on displayEnter, Save and Navigate to waypoints with Compass pageE2O (Easy-To-Operate) menu systemUser customizable soft keys for easy menu operationVersatile user-programmable scanning, priority scan and Dual WatchOversized rotary channel knob with push to enter, backlit display and keysLocal/Distance attenuatorOptional connection for RAM3 second station remote microphone with AIS displayIntercom between radio and RAM3Voice Scambler (optional)
