Operation with a Full Function Handset |
Section 4 Operation with Optional Full Function Handset
4.1Introduction
The RAY215 can be operated with the standard Fist Microphone, or an optional Full Function Handset that enables additional features, or both handsets to enable intercom capabilities. This section describes using the RAY215 with the optional Full Function Handset. See Section 3 for operation using the standard Fist Microphone.
The Full Function Handset provides you with these additional features:
•Full alphanumeric keypad
•Dedicated keys for Individual and All Ships DSC calls
•DSC distress calls that describe the type of distress
•Send and receive DSC Group Calls
•Expanded ship and shore phonebooks for making DSC Individual calls
•Manually enter lat/lon and UTC time when GPS input is not available
•DSC Call Log
The Full Function Handset option is available as a Single Station (Raymarine part number E46019) that replaces the fist microphone or as a Dual Station (Raymarine part number E46021) that, when used in conjunction with a Fist Microphone, enables intercom functions between the two stations.
The optional Full Function Handset connects to the port labeled HANDSET/RELOCATION KIT on the rear of the base station. The handset will not operate if connected to the microphone port on the front of the base station. If both a Fist Microphone and Full Function Handset are to be used, the Fist Microphone must be connected to the front microphone port and the Full Function Handset connected to the HANDSET/ RELOCATION KIT port on the rear of the base station.
4.1.1 Microphone / Full Function Handset Priority
When both a Fist Microphone and Full Function Handset are in use, only one can have priority to make a call. When the Full Function Handset is out of its cradle, it has priority over the Fist Microphone and the REMOTE indicator illuminates on the LCD of the base station. When the Full Function Handset is in the cradle, the Fist Microphone has priority and the REMOTE indicator extinguishes.
