This standard BS EN IEC 61993-2:2018 Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems. Automatic Identification Systems (AIS) is classified in these ICS categories:

• 33.060.20 Receiving and transmitting equipment
• 47.020.70 Navigation and control equipment

This part of IEC 61993 specifies the minimum operational and performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results conforming to performance standards adopted by IMO in Resolution MSC.74(69):1998, Annex 3. This document incorporates the applicable technical characteristics of Class A shipborne equipment included in Recommendation ITU-R M.1371 and takes into account the ITU Radio Regulations, where applicable. In addition, it takes account of IMO Resolution A.694(17) to which IEC 60945 is associated. When a requirement in this document is different from IEC 60945, the requirement of this document takes precedence.

This document also specifies the minimum requirements both for the means to input and display data and for the interfaces to other equipment suitable to be used as means of input and display data.

NOTE All text of this document that is identical to that in IMO resolution MSC.74(69):1998, Annex 3, or to that in ITU-R Recommendation M.1371 is printed in italics, and references to the resolution (abbreviated to "A3") or the recommendation (abbreviated to "M.1371") and paragraph numbers are indicated in parentheses, for instance (A3/3.3) or (M.1371-5/A2-3.3) respectively.
