Sending a Geographical Call
This radio does not send Geographical calls. Only large
ships and shore stations with specially equipped radios send
Geographical calls.
Receiving a Geographical Call
Geographical calls are transmitted by specially equipped
radios to all stations in a particular area to alert only those
stations of the call and not stations in unaffected
geographical areas. When in an area to which a
Geographical call is made, the radio sounds the
geographical alarm and switches to the channel chosen by
the transmitting station, unless Automatic Channel
Switching has been turned off.
When a Geographical Call Sounds:
1. Press any button to turn Off the alarm.
2. Read and write down the MMSI information of the vessel
sending the call as well as the date and time of the call.
3. Listen to the incoming voice message on the channel the
radio selects for the incoming Geographical call.
4. Place call information in Call Log.
5. Press one (1) of the following buttons to switch from the
Geographical call received to the Standby mode: Channel
16/9 button or ESC button.
Sending an Individual Call
Use the DSC Individual call feature to request
communication with one (1) exclusive station. The DSC
Individual call does not alert all other stations within range.
To Send an Individual Call:
1. Press the Call/Setup button to enter the Call Setup
menu.
2. Press the Enter button to enter to the INDIV select
Directory.
3. Scroll to Select from Routine, Urgency or Safety as the
type of call to send.
4. Press Enter button to advance to Directory or Manual
selection. Scroll to select either method to send call.
Press Enter button again.
5. Turn the Channel knob or press the Channel Preset
buttons to select a name to call from the directory.
6. Select a channel to communicate a call.
7. Press the Enter button to send the message or return to
Standby mode if ESC was chosen.
■
If the radio called sends back an automatic DSC
response “able to comply,” the individual alarm will
sound. Wait for a voice message from the called
station.
■
If the radio called does not send an “able to comply”
response, the radio waits eight seconds and resends
the message.
■
If an “unable to comply” response or no reply is
received, the radio display asks to resend the message
or exit the menu.
At the Unavailable menu, select SEND or EXIT with the
Enter button.
■
If SEND is selected, the radio restarts the individual call.
■
If EXIT is selected, the individual location on the Call
menu displays.
