Canceling an automatic distress call

While the radio is waiting for a response, it gives you the option of canceling the call. To
cancel the distress call, choose Cancel and press ENT-1W/25W.

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.
1. Press CALL-MENU to display the call menu.
2. Select Receive Log.
3. Select Distress to see the last 10 distress call received by the radio. Select Other to see
the last 20 normal calls received by the radio, then choose from Individual, Group, or
All Ships calls.
4. Calls are listed in the order they were received, with the newest call shown first. The
display blinks if there are new calls you have not reviewed.
5. Select the call you want to see the details of. Use CHANNEL UP and CHANNEL DOWN to see
all of the information. The log displays different information depending on type of call
received. See the table below for the information stored for each type of call:
