Regulations on the Management and Guidance of the Equipment for Vessel Position Reporting, Catch Reporting, Navigational Chart, and Monitoring Center Article 2
The automatic location communicator (ALC) installed onboard any fishing vessel of distant water fisheries shall meet the following specifications:(1)The ALC shall have a built-in global positioning system (GPS), be tampered proof, and be proof against any attempt of manual entry of position data.(2)The ALC shall have a single antenna used for both GPS and ALC. In case that the antenna is mounted outside the housing of the ALC, the antenna shall be connected by a single, unbroken and undamaged cable to the ALC.(3)The ALC shall be able to operate continuously and automatically at all time under any weather condition, and transmit accurate data within the area between 70°N and 70°S.(4)The ALC shall be able to transmit data, including identification number of the ALC, date, time, longitude and latitude, speed and course.(5)The GPS in the ALC shall be able to provide positions with a margin of error lower than 100 meters, with a confidence of 98%.(6)The ALC which has the function of two-way communications between the vessel and the monitoring center shall be able to accept remote change of reporting frequency set by the competent authority or the commissioned professional institution, and shall have the function of reporting vessel position(s) in real time. The ALC without the function of two-way communications shall automatically report vessel position(s) at least every hour, and the time lag of the transmission of position data shall not exceed 60 minutes.The ALC manufacturers and types that meet the requirements stipulated in the preceding paragraph shall be announced by the competent authority.
中文原文 船位回報漁獲回報海圖及監督管控中心設備管理輔導辦法第2條
從事遠洋漁業之漁船裝設之船位回報器，應符合下列規定：
一、船位回報器須內建全球定位系統（GPS），且能防止使用者竄改或自行輸入船位資料。
二、全球定位系統天線與船位回報器天線，須整合為單一天線；如天線不在船位回報器之機殼內時，須以單一且無中斷或破損之電纜連結。
三、須能不受氣候及環境因素影響，二十四小時均能在南緯七十度至北緯七十度間水域，全自動正常運作及傳輸船位。
四、須能傳輸船位回報器識別碼、日期、時間、船位經緯度、航速及航向等內容。
五、全球定位系統經緯度之誤差值在一百公尺以內者，比率應達百分之九十八以上。
六、具備與監督管控中心雙向通訊之功能者，應具有得由主管機關或受託專業機構於遠端變更船位回報頻率，及即時回報船位之功能；未具備雙向通訊功能者，須具有至少每小時自動傳回船位，且自動船位回報延遲時間不超過六十分鐘之功能。
符合前項規定之船位回報器廠牌型號，由主管機關公告之。
