DSC Settings

Manual Position Information

If you do not have a GPS device connected to your radio, you

can manually enter your position and time of entry. The position

data is transmitted with DSC calls. When you enter the position

and time manually, MANUAL POS appears on the screen.

Manually entered position information must be updated

regularly, and the radio displays two alerts to remind you to

update the position data.

• When the position data you entered manually is more than

four hours old, DATA IS OVER 4 HOURS OLD appears on

the screen. The radio continues to transmit this position data,

but you should update it before it becomes invalid.

• When the position data you entered manually is more than

23.5 hours old, it is considered invalid and DATA IS INVALID

appears on the screen. The radio does not transmit invalid

position data, and you should update it immediately.

Entering Position Information Manually

Select MENU > SYSTEM > MANUAL GPS.

Enter your current coordinates and the present time (Entering

Text, page 4).

Select ACCEPT.

Changing the Channel to 16 Automatically

By default, the radio changes to channel 16 automatically when

receiving distress, distress relay, and all-ships urgency calls. In

certain situations, when you must continually monitor a channel

to maintain uninterrupted communication with another vessel,

for example, you can disable this feature.

Select MENU > DSC > AUTO CHANGE CH..

Select an option:

• To set the radio to switch automatically to channel 16

when you receive a qualifying call, select ON.

• To set the radio to prompt you to accept or decline a

channel change when you receive a qualifying call, select

OFF.

Sending Automatic Replies

You can configure the radio to automatically respond to

incoming calls, including position requests.

NOTE: When you configure the radio to automatically respond

to incoming calls, the radio also changes the channel

automatically for all incoming individual calls.

Select MENU > DSC > INDIV REPLY.

Select an option:

• To send automatic replies, select AUTO.

• To send replies manually, select MANUAL.
