CAMINO-108S AIS Transponder / integr. splitter / GPS patch antenna

Equipped with an internal splitter, the Camino-108S allows for the use of an existing FM antenna. This makes the installation of the AIS transponder particularly easy, seeing as the existing radio is connected directly to the Camino, instead of to the FM antenna.

Product details

I hope it does the job...
Configurable only on PC, the Mac version requires a bit of "tinkering" however it is impossible to retrieve the information under Linux... so temporarily I am switching my navigation system to Mac...

by Jean-Eric C. Flag of France 10/2/2021 Verified purchase Variant: 95564
Performances decevantes
Le transpondeur functionne mais les performances sont decevantes. The portée de l'emission AIS est faible, suite à des trous constatés sur Marinetraffic et après verification auprès de semaphores plus ou moins proches. The portée de la réception est decevante par rapport à ce que j'observais avec the meme antenna on a VHF RO4800. L'mission radio semble also diminuée significantly par le splitter après tests auprès de sémaphores.

Technical question
Michal Z. | Feb 16, 2026 Flag of English
User image of Michal Z.

Can I configure the device using the official software (https://www.milltechmarine.com/downloads) and leave both CALLSIGN and MMSI blank for later setup? MMSI is not reprogrammable, and I'm awaiting CALLSIGN and MMSI. However, while I wait, I'd like to configure the system and test it.

Does CAMINO-108S AIS Transponder work as a receiver without entering the MMSI number? According to the manual, if MMSI is not properly programmed, the Error indicator will light red and steady.

Dear Andrius, yes, the Camino will work as an AIS Receiver (RX) when the MMSI is not configured. 1. Please leave the MMSI unconfigured. 2. Have the Camino 12VDC powered, and GPS/VHF antenna connected. 3. And yes, an ERROR message will appear, but the user can ignore it. If the MMSI has been configured, there are two (2) ways to prevent Camino from transmitting. 1. The best way is to put the Camino into SILENT MODE. 2. The alternate method is to leave the GPS antenna disconnected. (however, not recommended).
