5. LOG FILE

The log file stores routine received messages (messages other than Distress), received distress messages and transmitted messages, each in its own separate log.

5.1Log File Description

Three memory banks are provided for storage of messages: received ordinary log, received distress log and transmitted log. Each memory bank stores 50 messages, on a first-in, first-out basis. This means that a latest message is saved as log no.1 and the log no. of all previous messages in that memory bank increments by one. When the storage capacity is exceeded the oldest message is deleted to make room for the latest. An asterisk (*) marks unread or unacknowledged Rx messages, unacknowledged Tx messages and unread distress messages. Received distress messages are automatically deleted 48 hours after being read.
