Is the FP 2110 a radar/gps/plotter? I don't know how you'd get AIS to
work without a plotter of some sort.
Exactly. There are at least two or three issues:
1) How, and in what format, do you get the AIS data into the system?
NavNet port? NEMA sentences?
2) Is the Furuno designed to plot external data on either the radar
or chart plotter?
The Furuno NavNet V1/V2 units are designed to accept ARPA data
sentences from external sources which is somewhat similar, but I'm not
sure about AIS, nor the capabilities of your unit.
You might try reposting on rec.boats.electronics or contacting Furuno
directly.
