12.9VHF DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING

Digital Selective Calling is a semi-automated method of establishing a VHF radio call. DSC had also been designated as part of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS). It is planned that DSC will eventually replace aural watches on distress frequencies and will be used to announce routine and urgent maritime safety information broadcasts.

This new system allow mariners to instantly send a distress call with GPS position (when connected to the transceiver) to the US Coast Guard and other vessels within range of the transmission. DSC will also allow mariners to initiate POSITION Request, POSITION Send calls to or from another vessel equipped with a DSC transceiver.

STANDARD HORIZON VHF Marine Radios with Digital Selective Calling are able to be interfaced with the GPS chart plotter which feeds GPS data to the VHF and listens for DSC calls from the VHF. By connecting a few wires between the STANDARD HORIZON VHF and the GPS chart plotter it will receive:

1.a vessel that has transmitted a DSC Distress call

2.a vessel that has transmitted a DSC Position Send Call

3.The position of a vessel that transmitted a DSC Position Request Call

12.9.0 Interfacing

To take advantage of these functions the GPS chart plotter must be interfaced (wired) to a STANDARD HORIZON or compatible DSC VHF.

12.9.1 DSC Distress Call

During a Distress situation, a vessel that is equipped with a DSC VHF and connected to a GPS, has the capability to transmit a DSC Distress Call with GPS Position.

When the STANDARD HORIZON VHF receives a DSC Distress Call, DSC/Position information of the vessel in Distress is transferred to the GPS chart plotter. The GPS chart plotter Logs the Distress call into the DSC DISTRESS LOG and also prompts the user to see the location of the Vessel in Distress and also allows for easy navigation to the vessel.
