Position Input
The Position Input allows you to manually enter a position in
Latitude and Longitude and a time in UTC.
Auto Channel Change
The Auto Channel Change option will determine whether
your radio will change channels automatically when
requested by another radio. Generally this should be set to
Automatic as the DSC system is designed to guide to you a
specific channel after receiving a DSC call. However there
may be times when this is not desirable, in which case set this
feature to Manual.
Position Reply
Position Reply determines whether your radio will respond
automatically to a ‘Position Request’. If set to Automatic, your
radio will automatically respond to a Position Request by
transmitting your location back to the caller.
If you do not wish to allow other radios to request your
position, set this option to Manual.
Test Acknowledge
Test Acknowledge determines if your radio will respond
automatically to a Test call. Test calls sent to a coast station
or to another ship can be used to check if the DSC function
on your radio is working correctly. If set to Automatic, a
Test call sent to your User MMSI will cause your radio to
automatically respond to the caller allowing them to confirm
their radio is operating correctly.
To disable the Test Acknowledge feature, set this to Manual.
