3. DSC OPERATION FOR NON-DISTRESS CASES

3.10Log File

Three log files are provided for storage of calls: received ordinary log, received distress log and transmitted log. Each log file stores 50 calls, on a first-in, first-out basis. This means that the latest call is saved as log no.1 and the log no. of all previous calls in that log increments by one. When the storage capacity is exceeded, the oldest call is deleted to make room for the latest. A letter mark shows unread or unacknowledged calls. Received distress calls are automatically deleted 48 hours after being read.
