Saved Sub Tab

The Saved sub tab shows a list of all saved track logs and allows TracBack

activation and a map display of saved track logs. You can save up to 15 track logs

in memory with up to 700 track log points in each saved log.
On the Saved sub tab, the following soft keys are available:

Review Map—opens the Saved Track window so you can review the

selected track.

Delete—deletes the highlighted saved track log from memory.
Delete All—deletes all saved track logs from memory.

DSC (Digital Selective Calling) Tab

Use the DSC tab to control and set up DSC features on the GPSMAP 3205 unit.

DSC uses marine VHF radio and GPS technologies to transmit and receive

location information. DSC is used by mariners for two major operations—distress

calls and position reporting.
For more information about DSC and Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI)

numbers, see

page 99

in the “Appendix.”

When the Garmin GPSMAP 3205 is connected to a VHF radio with DSC support,

the GPSMAP 32005 displays a call list, log, and a directory available to store

incoming information received from another user’s DSC-capable VHF/GPS

combination. Basic wiring is required for the Garmin unit and VHF radio to

send and receive NMEA data from each other. See the GPSMAP 3205 & GPS 17

Installation Instructions for more information.
