6.2 DSC Phonebook
The Phonebook stores up to 20 preprogrammed MMSI numbers that you can select for making an Individual Call. The numbers are stored by name and contain the station’s MMSI number. You can add, edit and delete entries from the Phonebook, much as you would on a cellular telephone. Rotate the CH knob to make an item appear on the dot matrix display and then press in the CH knob to select that item.
Note: The following examples demonstrate making calls to other ship sta- tions. You may also make DSC Calls to shore stations. Shore station MMSI numbers start with “00”.
