3.If no MMSI number has been programmed, the radio prompts you to enter your MMSI number.

Canceling an automatic distress call

While the radio is waiting for a response, it gives you the option of canceling the call. To cancel the distress call, choose Cancel and press ENT-1W/25W.

Receiving a DSC call

If your radio receives an individual DSC call from another station, it sounds an incoming call

tone and displays the name or MMSI number of the station calling you. To respond to the call, select Send: Able-Comply; the radio sends an acknowledgement and automatically switches to the designated response channel. To reject the call, select Send: Unable-Comply; the radio

advises the other station that you are unable to respond to the call.

If the DSC request contains a response channel that you are not allowed to use, the radio displays Not Support CH; your only response option is Send: Unable-Comply.

If the radio receives a group or all ships call, it sounds an incoming call tone and automatically switches to the designated response channel.

Receive log

Just like your telephone’s caller ID list, your radio keeps track of the calls you receive but do not answer. The receive log is useful if you have been off your boat or away from your radio and want to see who has tried to contact you. The radio displays the last 10 distress calls and the last 20 non-distress calls that it received. If you have unread incoming DSC calls, the radio displays a Message icon. When you display all Distress and Other receiving logs, the message icon disappears.
