Using Digital Selective Calling (DSC) Using Digital Selective Calling Using the Chartplotter with a VHF Radio The following table indicates the features that are available when you connect your chartplotter to a VHF radio over a NMEA 0183 network or a NMEA 2000 network. Feature The chartplotter can transfer your GPS position to your radio. If your radio is capable, GPS position information is transmitted with DSC calls. The chartplotter can receive DSC distress and position information from the radio. The chartplotter can track the positions of vessels sending position reports. Quickly set up and send individual routine call details to your Garmin VHF radio. When you initiate a man-overboard distress call from your radio, the chartplotter displays the manoverboard screen and prompts you to navigate to the man-overboard point. When you initiate a man-overboard distress call from your chartplotter, the radio displays the Distress Call page to initiate a man-overboard distress call.
