DISTRESS Note: You must set the user MMSI in order to send a Distress call. Please see page 40 to set the MMSI. This feature will allow you to transmit a Distress call. 1. In order to transmit a Distress call, press and hold DISTRESS for 5 seconds. 2. The Distress call is transmitted and it waits for about 210 - 270 seconds. This is continued internally. After the Distress call has been sent, the Distress alert will sound every other second, and it also "shadow-watches" for a transmission between CH16 and CH70 until an acknowledgment signal is received from the Coast Guard shore station. To cancel the Distress call, press 16/9/TRI. 3. When the radio receives a Distress call, the following screen appears. If an acknowledgment is not received, the Distress call is repeated until an acknowledgment is received from the Coast Guard shore station. Note: If the radio receives a Distress call, it will be displayed on the LCD display. An emergency alert will sound. The name will be displayed if it is the name registered in the directory. Otherwise, sender's MMSI is displayed. Latitude, longitude, and time information will also be displayed if the GPS module is carried in the vessel that transmitted a DSC Distress call. 19
