When your Garmin chartplotter is connected to a Garmin NMEA
2000-compatible radio and you activate navigation to a man-overboard
location, the radio displays the Distress Call page to initiate a man-overboard
distress call. On the radio, press and hold the DISTRESS key for at least three
seconds to send the distress call.
For information on placing distress calls from your Garmin radio, see your
Garmin VHF Radio Owner’s Manual. For information on activating navigation
to a man-overboard location, see page 24.

When you connect your Garmin chartplotter to a VHF radio using NMEA
0183, you can track vessels that send position reports. This feature is also
available with NMEA 2000, provided that the vessel sends the correct PGN
data (PGN 129808; DSC Call Information).
Every position report call received is logged in the DSC list (page 40).
