Emergency Messages  

and Distress Procedure

Introduction

Warranty

Marine Distress Procedure – DSC 

Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is a semi-automated system that will allow you to press 
the 

Distress

 button from any routine to make a distress call. When the distress button 

is pressed, all other channels go to 

Standby

 mode and allow the digitally encoded “pre-

programmed” message to take precedence. Important information such as your MMSI 
number, position and name will be transmitted on Channel 16. The distress alarm will 
sound for two (2) minutes or until the alarm is cleared. 

The DSC system allows you to choose a “pre-programmed” distress call such as: “Man 
Overboard, Sinking, Collision.” There are many pre-programmed choices to choose 
from. If a GPS is connected to your radio, your coordinates will also be sent to the 
Coast Guard as well as to other vessels that are within range of the transmission. DSC 
calling also allows the user to initiate and receive distress, urgent, safety, routine, 
position request, position send and group calls between vessels equipped with DSC 
capable radios.

WARNING 

This radio will generate a digital maritime distress and safety signal to help 
facilitate search and rescue. This radio must be used only within communication 
range of a shore based VHF station with a distress and safety watch system. 
The range of the signal may vary.
