Viewing Vessel Trails on the Chart

You can view trails for all tracked vessels on some chart views. By default, a black line indicates the path of the
vessel, a black dot indicates each previously reported position of a tracked vessel, and a blue flag indicates the
last reported position of the vessel.
1 From a chart or 3D chart view, select Menu > Layers > Other Vessels > DSC > DSC Trails.
2 Select the number of hours to show tracked vessels on the chart.
For example, if you select 4 Hours, all trail points that are less than four hours old appear for all tracked
vessels.

Individual Routine Calls

When you connect the chartplotter to a Garmin VHF radio, you can use the chartplotter interface to set up an
individual routine call.
When setting up an individual routine call from your chartplotter, you can select the DSC channel on which you
want to communicate. The radio transmits this request with your call.

Selecting a DSC Channel

NOTE: The selection of a DSC channel is limited to those channels that are available in all frequency bands. The
default channel is 72. If you select a different channel, the chartplotter uses that channel for subsequent calls
until you call using another channel.
1 Select Nav Info > Other Vessels > DSC List.
2 Select a vessel or a station to call.
3 Select Review > Call with Radio > Channel.
4 Select an available channel.

Making an Individual Routine Call

NOTE: When initiating a call from the chartplotter, if the radio does not have an MMSI number programmed, the
radio will not receive call information.
1 Select Nav Info > Other Vessels > DSC List.
2 Select a vessel or a station to call.
3 Select Review > Call with Radio.
4 If necessary, select Channel, and select a new channel.
5 Select Send.
The chartplotter sends information about the call to the radio.
