•MANUAL means that you choose whether or not to reply to any incoming LL polling requests.

•OFF ignores all LL polling requests.

1.Select DSC SETUP and press >ENT.

2.Move the cursor to LL REPLY and press >ENT.

3.Select your response, then press >ENT again to return to the DSC SETUP option.

WARNING!

You can turn OFF the DSC functions, but this is not recommended because you won’t be able to automatically transmit coded information about your boat to the GMDSS in a distress situation.

1.Select DSC SETUP and press >ENT.

2.Move the cursor to DSC FUNC and press >ENT.

3.Press >ENT again if you want to turn the DSC functions ON,

OR

move the cursor to OFF and then press <ENT to turn the DSC functions OFF.

It is not possible to have both of DSC and ATIS operating simultaneously. When you turn one ON, the other will turn OFF. If they are both OFF, you must set DSC FUNC to ON to get DSC functionality.

SPECIAL NOTE:

The DSC or ATIS annunciator in the LCD will illuminate if DSC or ATIS is fully operational.
