Advanced AIS monitoring, diagnostics and station feedback built around the existing MastNode environment without replacing MastChain, MastRadar or the base system.
The value is not just more graphs. It is faster feedback when changing antennas, coax, filters or receiver settings.
See vessels received directly by the MastNode and immediately understand what the station is hearing.
Reception statistics, channels, message data, range metrics and station activity in one interface.
Evaluate changes in gain, antenna position, coax and filters with direct before/after feedback.
Track coverage development through the day and spot weak directions or improvements after changes.
See service state, station health and important runtime information without jumping between tools.
Access the logs that matter from the same local monitoring environment.
Follow the operational state of Premium services and optional integrations from one focused view.
Manage supported Premium preferences while leaving the original MastNode services in place.
Wingbits AIS integration is an optional Premium add-on. It allows the MastNode to forward its AIS reception to Wingbits while MastChain and the original MastNode services continue operating normally.
For owners who want it, the same MastNode can also forward AIS data to Wingbits. This feature is optional and does not replace MastChain or the normal MastNode operation.
MastNode Premium works independently. Wingbits AIS forwarding can be enabled only for owners who want to use it.
The integration adds an optional AIS destination while MastChain, MastRadar and Onocoy continue operating normally.
Forwarding health and related status can be viewed from the Premium monitoring environment.

The Premium layer is installed alongside the existing MastNode environment instead of replacing the base platform.
If a controlled installation fails, the installer can return to the previous working state.
Credentials, diagnostics history and tuning state are preserved outside versioned release directories.
