Position Report; Transmitting A Dsc Position Report Call - Standard Horizon MATRIX AIS/GPS GX2200E Owner's Manual

POSITION REPORT

The feature is similar to position request, however instead of requesting a
position of another vessel this function allows you to send your position to
another vessel. Your vessel must mark the internal GPS receiver for the
GX2200E to send the position.
To transmit a position report call, the GX2200E individual directory
must be programmed with stations you wish to send your position
to. To setup this directory refer to section "8.5.1 Setting up the Indi-
vidual / Position Call Directory."
