Receiving A Dsc Call; Receive Log - Uniden UM455 Owner's Manual

Using Digital Selective Calling (DSC) Features

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.
