AIS and MaxSea

[zoefzoef]

hai all
i have a request but maybe some on can helpme

i use maxsea 10,3 and i recently bought a ais sr62
but i cant see any ships in maxsea so i asked on the maxsea forum what to do
they tell me that i have to buy so upgrade to 12,6 but then i need new charts also
my question is there an other way to get the ais module for 10,3
thanks in advends

I have shipplotter software running at the same time as the maxsea (sharing gps signal via Franson GPSgate) so that I can just swap between the two. If the chart is being viewed, the alerts from the AIS CPS programme will still show.

I reckon this is better than having both on the same as there is less chance for confusion. Shipplotter allows you to use a map as well if you want, or a satellite image (my preference)

i have shipplotter but my laptop get`s a runtime error when i have both programs on witch makes it very on relayble system when i sail alone that`s why i like to try this

you need the ais module for this to work in maxsea v10.3. i don't think you can get them anymore from maxsea?

What operating system are you running?

How do you feed GPS to both programmes

Which version of shipplotter are you using?

I guess I had better update my shipplotter and see if that makes a difference.

I run XP Pro sp3.

How do you share gps data

check your PMs ....

If the module is not there you will most likely not be able to buy it as an add-on. MaxSea is not a Firefox.

Check if your charts work with SOB and see where you get from there. SOB is OK and I got it to work both with c-maps and the ais.
