12 DSC SETUP

12.1 INDIVIDUAL DIRECTORY

The GX2200 has a DSC directory that allows you to store a vessel or
person's name and the MMSI number associated with vessels you wish to
transmit individual calls, position requests and position report transmissions.
To transmit an individual call you must program this directory with information
of the persons you wish to call, similar to a cellular phones telephone directory.
Refer to section "9.5.1 Setting up the Individual / Position Call Directory"
for details.

12.2 INDIVIDUAL REPLY

This menu item sets up the radio to automatically (default setting) or manu-
ally respond to a DSC Individual call requesting you to switch to a working
channel for voice communications. When "Manual" is selected the MMSI of
the calling vessel is shown allowing you to see who is calling. This function is
similar to caller id on a cellular phone.
Refer to section "9.5.2 Setting up the Individual Call Reply" for details.

12.3 INDIVIDUAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT

The radio can be setup to transmit a reply automatically (default) or set so
the radio will not reply to an individual call.
Refer to section "9.5.3 Enabling the Individual Call Acknowledgment" for
details.

12.4 INDIVIDUAL RINGER

The radio can be setup to ring like a telephone to alert you the radio received
a DSC individual call. The default setting is 2 minutes, however this can be
changed to 15, 10 or 5 seconds with the procedure below.
Refer to section "9.5.6 Setting up the Individual Call Ringer" for details.

12.5 GROUP DIRECTORY

For this function to operate, the same group MMSI must be programmed
into all the DSC VHF radios within the group of vessels that will be using this
feature.
