1.2.8

Quick selection of CH16

Press the CH16 key to select CH16, the International Calling and Safety

Channel. The use is limited to distress, safety and calling. The transmission on

CH16 (156.800 MHz) should be limited to within 1 minute except for distress

calling.

Avoid calling on CH16 for purposes other than distress, urgency and very brief

safety communications when another calling channel is available.

1.2.9

Dual watch

The dual watch function permits watch on CH16 and another selected channel.

CH16 and another channel are watched at intervals of 0.15 seconds and one

second, respectively.

To start dual watch, first select the other frequency to watch and then press the

SHIFT key and 9 DW key in that order. When the receiver finds a signal on

CH16, it locks on it and restarts dual watching after the signal on CH16 has gone.

If another channel has traffic, it still continues dual watch. The speech is heard

intermittently. If you are annoyed with the intermittence, turn off the dual watch

by pressing the PTT switch on the handset or pressing the SHIFT and 9 DW key

again.

1.2.10 Scanning

The receiver scans all channels at intervals of 0.15 seconds in the selected

channel mode in ascending channel order, watching CH16 between channels as

below:

4...

16...

To start scanning, press the SHIFT and 8 SCAN in that order. When the receiver

finds a signal, scanning is stopped on that channel and starts dual watch on it

and CH16.

To turn off the scanning, press the PTT switch or press the SHIFT and 8 SCAN

key.

1.2.11 Remarks on voice communications

Automatic acknowledge (DSC operation) is automatically changed to manual

acknowledge when voice communications begin. (The “auto” indication, however,

remains on the screen.) This is done to prevent a break in communications.

Automatic acknowledge is automatically restored once voice communications

are terminated.

DSC Operational Overview

Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is the global calling system adopted by the ITU-R

and IMO for selective calling of coast station and ship radio stations. The DSC

system is used for both safety and routine calling. The GMDSS requires the use

of DSC for distress alerting and safety calls.

1.3.1

LED warnings

The LED below the DISTRESS key lights continuously when the distress signal

is transmitted.

The ALARM LED blinks in red (and alarm sounds) when a distress or urgent

message is received. The LED can be extinguished and alarm silenced by

pressing the CANCEL key.

The ALARM LED blinks in green (and alarm sounds) when a message other

than distress or urgent is received. Alarm is automatically silenced two minutes

after message is received.

Receiving Distress Alert from Other Vessel,

Transmitting DIST ACK Signal

In no case is a ship permitted to transmit a DSC distress relay call upon receipt

of a DSC distress alert on VHF channel 70.

Procedure when in area A1

1. When the FM-8800D/8800S receives a distress alert from another vessel, the

ALARM LED (red) blinks and the FM-8800D/8800S sounds the distress

alarm.

2. Silence the alarm by pressing the CANCEL key.

3. Wait up to five minutes until the DIST ACK signal from a coast station is

received. Be prepared to follow the instructions of the coast station.

4. If you do not receive the DIST ACK signal, follow the flow chart shown on

page 2-8 to determine if your vessel should acknowledge a distress alert.

If further DSC alerts are received from the same source and the ship in distress

is beyond doubt in the vicinity, a DSC acknowledgement may, after consultation

with an Rescue Co-ordination Center (RCC) or Coast Station, be sent to

terminate the distress call.

Note 1:An asterisk (*) in a received distress alert message indicates error or

unknown at the location marked with the asterisk.

Note 2:Do not send DIST ACK in response to receipt of distress alert having the

nature of distress as “EPIRB emission”.
