LRIT COMPLIANCE

This equipment can function as a marine communications terminal for the LRIT (Long-Range Identification and Tracking) system, as prescribed by the IMO regulation MSC.202(81). The LRIT uses the FELCOM's Data Report/Polling feature for LRIT position reporting.

The LRIT system is fully automatic, thus no operation is required of the user. However, follow the guidelines shown below to use this equipment as an LRIT device.

The data listed below is sent by the FELCOM when it receives a command from the LRIT data center.
