LL polling calls - reply options

A DSC LL polling call is received by the radio when one of your
buddies sends a request for your position—latitude and longitude
request (LL request)—normally at regular intervals.

For information on LL requests (polling) see “Sending an LL request
for the position of a buddy” on page 58.

You can set up the radio to respond to an LL polling request in one
of three ways:

MANUAL
Reply manually to any incoming LL polling requests.

AUTO
Automatically reply to any incoming LL polling requests.

OFF
Ignore all incoming LL polling requests.

1.

Select MENU

→ DSC SETUP → LL REPLY.

2.

Scroll to MANUAL, AUTO or OFF as required and press [OK].

Automatic channel switch options

When a DSC call is received, it may include a request to change to a
specific channel for subsequent communications.

With Auto Switch set to ON, when receiving a DSC call, the radio
will automatically switch to the requested channel if not cancelled
within 10 seconds. This might disrupt important communications
that are already in progress on the current working channel. To
avoid this, you can prevent the radio from automatically switching
channel by setting the AUTO SWITCH feature to OFF.

If Auto Switch is set to OFF, the

icon will be displayed on screen

to remind you that this feature is set to off.

Additionally, the text “AUTO SW OFF” will be included in an All Ships
or Group call.
