DATA REPORTING AND POLLING

This chapter provides the information necessary for data reporting and polling
reception. Data reporting provides automatic data transmission at regular
intervals from your ship to your home office. When your ship receives a polling
command from your home office, it automatically transmits polling data to your
home office.
No operator intervention is required during polling reception.

Data Reporting

Data reporting provides automatic data transmission at predetermined intervals
from your ship to your home office. The data are position, speed, bearing and
other data sent from a navigator or an interface unit.
The data transmitted from the FELCOM is temporarily stored in a data reporting
file at the LES. When an operator at your home office accesses the LES, the
LES delivers the data to your home office. Some LESs may deliver it without
being accessed.
Data reporting can be initiated by setting a data report on the FELCOM or
receiving a polling command from your home office.
FELCOM offers two types of data reporting as follows:
• Data report (on MES signaling channel)
• Message report (on MES message channel)
