General description The dome may be fixed using a horizontal and a vertical mounting (L-shape) bracket. The dome must be mounted on the buoy and powered from a 12 or 24 V DC supply using the C-16-1 Amphenol cable (female connector connected to the transponder). 1.3.2. Dome The dome houses the KanAtoN 3 AIS Transponder.

Mounting on a mast or hard rail To mount the dome on a mast or a hard rail, only the pole mounting bracket (4) and the U-bolts (6) are required. 1. Fix the pole mounting bracket (4) to the dome (1) using the three M6 washers (8) and the three M6.3 POZIDRIVE screws (7). Figure 6: Fixing the mounting onto the dome 2. Put the U-bolts (6) over the mast or the rail guard. 3.
KanAtoN 3 AIS Transponder Installation Manual PAGE : 6 / 13 DATE : 14/05/2014 INDICE : D REF. : DOC10089 2.3. Mounting on horizontal or vertical surface Use the pole mounting bracket (4) and L-shaped bracket (5) together to fix the dome onto a horizontal or vertical surface. Do not use U-bolts. 5. Mounting on horizontal surface: - Fix the L-shaped bracket (5) onto the pole mounting bracket (4) using the four H M8 screws (11), M8 washers (10) and M8 nuts (9) as indicated below.

Position fixing Position fixing and timing are performed by the internal GPS receiver. 3.2. Back up at configuration setting The following data are saved by an internal E2prom microprocessor: Slots and transmission channels. Message number to be transmitted. AIS beacon Id. Definition of sensors outputs parameters, etc. 3.3.
KanAtoN 3 AIS Transponder Installation Manual PAGE : 9 / 13 DATE : 14/05/2014 INDICE : D REF. : DOC10089 3.8. Reception of meteorological and hydrological data NMEA Format Data is input at 4800 bauds using the RS485 serial link. Meteorological / Hydrological data acquisition and processing by the CPU can take a considerable time. Consequently a programmable parameter has been included in the configuration software which may be used to extend the wake up time of the transponder to take this into account.

Failures analysis This section is a guide for diagnostic and resolution of the most current problems. 5.1. Self-test When the transponder is switched on, a self-test is carried. The LED lights green for 3 seconds then displays the result of the self-test.. The LED lights red for 3 seconds if the test has failed, then transmits a series of long red flashes with a period of 1 second.
