The indications are the same as those on of the transceiver unit. The *- marked number is the terminal number of the remote station.
**: If no MMSI is registered, the message “DSC UNAVAIL” appears instead of
MANUAL ACK and WATCH CH70. “DISTRESS MODE” is displayed at distress calling.
Note: The screen of the remote handset is smaller than the one of the transceiver unit. In this manual, display examples are from the transceiver unit. In the remote handset, scrolling with up or down arrow key displays same information as the screen of the transceiver unit.
Remote handset does not have a channel knob, but the transceiver unit does. To set private channel or memory channel at the remote station, use [2] key or [8] key.
1.1.4Audio alarms
When you receive a distress alert or other DSC call, the audible and visual alarms are released. For the distress or urgency call, the audio alarm sounds until the CANCEL key is pressed. For all other calls, the audible alarm sounds for two minutes and the automatically goes off. The tone of the alarm changes with the call received. By becoming accustomed to the tone, you can know which type of call you have received.
