8.7 DSC DISTRESS call
8.7.a Sending a DISTRESS call
IMPORTANT! You can only send a DSC call if you have been assigned an individual MMSI

code and this code has been programmed into the transceiver (otherwise the following
commands will be deactivated).
Sending a distress call without founded reason is a criminal offence. Never use this 
function unless you nd yourself in a situation that merits requiring help.
The DISTRESS button is protected by a small plastic shutter.
This button activates preset emergency messages which are transmitted on a dedicated channel,
channel 70. These messages are sent to all the radios operating within your range and may be sent
also to a busy channel.
To activate a Distress call: raise the shutter, press DISTRESS and choose, with the UP/DOWN
keys, the desired message amongst these:
A. UNDEFINED
B. ABANDONING
C. PIRACY
D. M.O.B. (man over board)
E. FIRE
F. FLOODING
G. COLLISION
H. GROUNDING
I. LISTING
L. SINKING
M. ADRIFT
Hold down DISTRESS for 5 seconds as conrmation.
An acoustic alert sign will emit and the distress call will be carried out.
If the distress call is received and conrmed by another station, the alert sign will stop and the display
will return to normal use in VHF model on channel 16, sending on high transmission power.
If no confrimation is received, the unit will send again the di stress call at intermission of 4 minutes
(even with channel 70 in use) until a conrmation is received or the user manually cancels the call
through MENU/SELECT or 16(distress cancell) buttons or PTT(uscita).

directory or manually inserted).
