This operation stores the MMSI number required for DSC communications,
including distress calls. You can request an MMSI number when you
apply for a radio license. If your vessel does not require a license, you may
obtain an MMSI by contacting either BoatUS (www.boatus.com) or
MariTEL (www.maritelusa.com).
Regulations in some regions do not allow end users to program their own
MMSI number. If this unit was purchased to be used in such a region, this
function will be disabled and the programming must be done by your
distributor.
Note:
This is a one-time operation. Once the MMSI number has been
programmed, you will not be able to change it.
Until the MMSI number is programmed, pressing the INDV, ALL SHIP,
and DISTRESS buttons will only sound an error alert.
To register the MMSI Number into memory:
1) Select the MY MMSI function as described above in Section 3.5.30.4
Setting Operation (RAY230).
2) Press the ENT key. The 7-segment display shows MS and the dot
matrix display scrolls PLEASE PROGRAM MMSI NO.
3) Press ENT. Nine underscore characters appear, which are placeholders
for the 9 digits of the MMSI number. The first character place to be
input is flashing.
