vessel.

Individual Routine Calls

When you connect your Garmin chartplotter to a Garmin VHF

radio over the NMEA 2000 or the NMEA 0183 network, you can

use the chartplotter interface to set up an individual routine call.
When setting up an individual routine call from your chartplotter,

you can select the DSC channel on which you want to

communicate. The radio transmits this request with your call.

Selecting a DSC Channel

NOTE: The selection of a DSC channel is limited to those

channels that are available in all frequency bands. The default

channel is 72. If you select a different channel, the chartplotter

uses that channel for subsequent calls until you call using

another channel.
