Reference DSC Position Report
The Position Report operates similarly to the Distress Call. Remember this type of contact is like a
phone call, but no emergency alarms are set off and the call is specific to the receiver. Position Reports are
not broadcasted to all DSC users.
DSC Call List
The DSC Call List displays the current calls received. The GPS can manage up to 50 calls. When ‘calls’
are received, they are updated constantly to give the most current information, even if the unit is left unat-
tended. Any entry from the Call List can be selected to show an Entry Review.
DSC Log
When DSC calls are received, they are automatically stored in the Log, with the latest call at the top.
The unit may store up to 100 logs. Once 100 logs are received, the oldest log file is removed when a new
call is received. The Log displays information of call Type, Date/Time, Position, and MMSI/Name. Press-
ing MENU from this page allows you to ‘Sort By Time’, ‘Sort By Name’, ‘Sort By (Call) Type’, ‘Delete’ (only
after highlighting a particular call), and ‘Delete All’.
To Review a Call:
1. From the DSC tab of the Main Menu and the Log or Call List tab highlighted, press DOWN on the ARROW
KEYPAD until the call you want to review is highlighted.
2. Press ENTER/MARK to select the call.
DSC Entry Review
The DSC Entry Review operates similarly to the Distress Page and Position Report Page. This page has
the additional option to ‘Delete’ the displayed call. From the DSC Entry Review, you can ‘Delete’ the entry,
‘Show on map’, or ‘Create Waypoint’ and create a name for the entry.
DSC Directory
The DSC Directory acts much like a phone book. A user can save up to 50 contacts. The directory lists
by Name and MMSI number. Pressing MENU from this page allows you to create a ‘New Item’, ‘Delete
Item’, or ‘Delete All’.
