Raymarine Ray54E - Manual (Page 82)

72 Ray54E VHF Radio
My MMSI ID
This operation stores the MMSI number required for DSC communications.
If you try to access a DSC function before entering the MMSI number, an
error message appears and you are prompted to enter the MMSI ID.
Note: You can request an MMSI number from the same agency that issues
radio or Ship Radio licences in your area. If regulations in your area do not
permit you to program the MMSI number yourself, your Raymarine dealer/
distributor can program the number for you.
This is a one time operation. After the MMSI number is programmed:
•
you will not be able to change it
• only your dealer/distributor can change it
• after entering your MMSI ID, accessing this menu item will merely dis-
play the programmed number
➤
To enter or view the MMSI ID number:
1. From the
DSC SETUP menu item described on page 71, rotate the CH knob
until the arrow points to
MY MMSI ID.
2. Push the
CH knob to accept. If an existing MMSI ID is stored, the value
appears. If the MMSI ID is blank, dashes appear, indicating that one has
yet to be entered.
3. To enter the MMSI ID number, rotate the
CH knob to select the digits
using the same technique described in Adding an Entry on page 59.
