7 CALL PROCEDURE I Test call Testing on the exclusive DSC distress and safety calling frequencies (such as 2187.5 kHz) should be avoided as much as possible by using other methods. When testing on the distress/safety frequency is unavoidable, it should be indicated that these are test transmissions. Normally the test call would require no further communications between the two stations involved. q Push [MODE SET] to select the DSC menu. w Rotate [CH] to select "Test" call, then push [ENT]. e Select the desired coast station code, then push [ENT]. • Use [CH] to select the coast station code when pre-programmed. ********* Test Address ID -----ÇManual set Port ICOM 001234567 Port ABC 001234566 Port M802 001234565 SEL OK • When "Manual set" is selected, enter the desired code (last 7 digits only) via keypad. - The first 2 digits "00 (double zero)" are fixed for the coast station code. ********* Test Address ID ------ 007654321 OK r Select the desired call frequency, then push [ENT]. • Use [CH] to select one of the desired distress/safety frequencies. ********* Test ********* ---- Call frequency ---- ÇManual set 2187.5kHz 4207.5kHz 6312.0kHz 8414.5kHz 12577.0kHz 16804.5kHz SEL OK • When "Manual set" is selected, enter the desired transmit and receive frequencies via the keypad. ********* Test Call frequency ---- TX:_2187.5kHz RX:_2187.5kHz SEL OK t The calling stand-by screen is displayed as follows, verify the calling condition then push and hold [CANCEL/CALL] for 1 sec. to transmit the test call. ********* Test Call --------To:007654321 Call Freq:TX 2187.5kHz RX 2187.5kHz Call y After sending a call, the transceiver waits for an acknowledgement.
