Sending an Individual Ship's Call

The RAY215 can only send a Routine Individual Call. The MMSI number of the ship to which the Individual Call is to be sent can be input manually or selected from a phonebook listing in memory. This section includes instructions for using both methods and for adding numbers to the phonebook.

Using a manually input MMSI number

1.Press and release the DSC/PRI and D/L / I.C. keys simultaneously to place the unit in DSC mode. "70" appears in the large channel display, the DSC indicator illuminates, and "in" appears in the small channel display to designate individual call.

2.Press and release the DSC/PRI key. The DSC indicator appears, "0" is displayed in the large character display, and "1" is displayed in the small character display.

3.Rotate the Channel Select (CH) knob until the first digit of your MMSI number appears in the large character display. (Channel UP/DOWN keys on the microphone are disabled during this process).

4.Press the DSC/PRI key once to accept. The small character display now shows a "2", designating the second digit in the other ship’s MMSI number.

5.Rotate the Channel Select (CH) knob until the second digit of the other ship’s MMSI number appears in the large channel display.

6.Press the DSC/PRI key once to accept.

7.Enter all 9 digits of the MMSI number in the same way.

8.Once the 9th digit has been entered and accepted, the RAY215 plays back the 9 digits just entered for proper entry verification.

If the number is incorrect, press the DSC/PRI key once and release. The radio will revert to the beginning of the entry process to start over again. This step can be repeated as many times as required until the number is entered correctly.

9.When the MMSI number is verified as correct, press and hold the DSC/PRI key for 2 seconds to verify.

Note: The operation is cancelled if the 16/9 key is pressed or if no keys are pressed for 60 seconds during any part of this process.
