4.2 How to Receive a Distress Alert
When you receive a distress alert from a ship in distress, the audio alarm sounds and
the LED flashes in red. The icon for DISTRESS receiving ( ) appears in the tab area
and the pop-up message "DISTRESS ALERT message received! [CANCEL]: Stop
alarm" appears on the screen.
Press the CANCEL key to silence the audio alarm. Wait for the distress acknowledge
call from a coast station. If you do not receive the distress acknowledge call from a
coast station, which usually takes about five minutes from the time of receiving a dis-
tress alert, follow the flow charts in this section to determine your action.
Note: An asterisk (*) appearing in a distress alert message indicates an error at the
asterisk’s location.

Continue watching on 2182 kHz. Wait for coast station to acknowledge the distress
call. Watch until “SEELONCE FINI” is announced.
If multiple DSC distress alerts are received from the same ship in distress and it is
near your ship, communicate with RCC or coast station and send distress acknowl-
edge call to the ship in distress under the direction of RCC or coast station.
Watch on the distress frequency.
