Sending a Distress Alert CAUTION When sending a distress alert, follow the instructions of the ship's captain or officer in charge. Open the DISTRESS key cover on the NCM-2150 MF/HF CONTROLLER. Press and hold the DISTRESS key for 4 seconds to send the distress alert. When the countdown is finished the screen below on the right is displayed, and after antenna tuning the distress alerts are transmitted.
Page 18
After receiving acknowledgement, use the radiotelephone to request rescue. First, the responding station calls by radiotelephone. Communicate the following information to that station. Say "MAYDAY". Say "This is (name of your ship)". Tell the station the ship's Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number, call sign, ship's position, nature of distress, and rescue requests.
Page 19
Receiving a Distress Alert WARNING If a distress alert is received, make sure to inform the ship's captain or officer in charge. Doing so may save the lives of the crews and passengers on the ship in distress. When a distress alert is received, the BAM alert is displayed. ENT button is pressed to close the BAM alert display and information such as the ID number of the ship in distress and the stage of the distress event are displayed.
