Changing the MMSI on a FA-170 AIS typically requires specialized knowledge and tools. However, if you are unable to access a Furuno dealer, you may be able to change the MMSI by following these general steps:
- Obtain the appropriate software and cable to interface with the FA-170 AIS. This may require contacting Furuno technical support or a third-party provider.
- Connect the AIS to a computer using the cable and open the software.
- Follow the instructions in the software to change the MMSI. This may involve entering a password or other security measures.
- Once the MMSI has been changed, disconnect the AIS from the computer and test the device to ensure that it is functioning properly.
Note that the specific steps may vary depending on the model and software version of the FA-170 AIS. It's important to exercise caution when working with electrical equipment and to seek professional assistance if you are unsure of how to proceed.
