Individual Routine Calls

When you connect your Garmin chartplotter to a Garmin VHF
radio over the NMEA 2000 or the NMEA 0183 network, 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.
