DSC OPERATION
I Position and Time programming
A Distress call should include the ship's position and time
data. If no GPS is connected, your position and UTC (Univer-
sal Time Coordinated) time should be input manually. They
are included automatically when a GPS receiver (NMEA0183
ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is connected.
• This manual programming is not available when a GPS
receiver (NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is connected.
• Manually programmed position/time data will be held for
23.5 hours only.
