Pilot Plug Wireless Connector Advanced Pilot Plug Wireless Connector ADQl is the ultimate tool for the professional pilot. The advanced ADQl is compensating for the potential faulty wiring of the ship pilot plug. Within seconds the ADQl automatically detects the active Tx pin. ADQl even detects serial signals as weak as 0.25V. The internal CPU is extracting real AIS data from noise. The Rx led on ADQl indicates when AIS data is detected. ADQl provides the industry standard WLAN 802.11b/g connection between the vessel's AIS pilot plug and laptop, making the wireless connection to any WLAN equipped computer very easy. ADQl is developed based upon the specifications form the Dutch Pilot Organisation. It includes smart batteries with 12 hour battery life, charging capability during operation and precise battery indication. Combining the ADQl with any portable pilot electronic chart software package (e.g Qastor from QPS), a compact solution for pilots is created. ADQl passes all AIS information wirelessly from the pilot plug to the software for display and calculation purposes. With fully integrated AIS installations, the ship's gyro, dGPS and rate of turn indicator are connected to the AIS system. The pilot does not need to bring anything more on the vessel than a standard notebook computer running the desired software along with the ADQl to connect to the AIS pilot plug. The ADQl gives the pilot maximum flexibility during the conduction.
