4. DSC Operation
This chapter shows you how to set up and send DSC
calls. For each type of call the display shows the
message “XXX call in progress” (XXX = name of call)
while the call is being sent. If, when preparing a DSC
call, no data is entered for five seconds, the equipment
reverts to standby.
4.1 Distress Call
Do the following when a life endangering situation
arises on your vessel:
1. Press the [POWER] switch in the hanger to turn on
the unit if it is not already on.
2. Hook off the handset.
3. Open the DISTRESS button lid and press the
[DISTRESS] button over four seconds. The
equipment sets up as follows:
a) Alert sounds.
b) Distress LED flashes.
c) Speaker is turned on.
d) CH70 is selected.
e) High power (25 W) is selected.
Continue pressing the button until the display looks
something like the sequence in right column.
