11.3.2 Receiving a DSC Distress Call
1. When a DSC Distress call is received, an emergency
alarm sounds.
Then channel 16 is automatically selected.
2. Press any key to stop the alarm.
3. The LCD shows the position of the vessel in distress.
4 If the position of the vessel distress data does not
include position, the LCD will show the display on
the right.
NOTE
You must continue monitoring channel 16 as a coast station may re-
quire assistance in the rescue attempt.
11.4 ALL SHIPS CALL
The All Ships Call function allows contact to be established with other vessel
stations without having their ID in the individual calling directory. Also, priority
for the call can be designated as Urgency or Safety.
URGENCY Call:This type of call is used when a vessel may not truly be in
distress, but have a potential problem that may lead to a dis-
tress situation. This call is the same as saying PAN PAN PAN
on channel 16.
SAFETY Call: Used to transmit boating safety information to other vessels.
This message usually contains information about an overdue
boat, debris in the water, loss of a navigation aid or an impor-
tant meteorological message. This call is the same as saying
Securite, Securite, Securite.”
