57 Chapter 5: Digital Selective Calling (DSC) The Ray49 includes equipment for Class “D” Digital Selective Calling (DSC). DSC protocol is a globally applied system used to send and receive digital calls. DSC uses a unique Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number to direct DSC calls directly to your radio, much like a telephone number. Note: An MMSI number is required to operate the DSC equipment in this radio. You can obtain an MMSI from BoatUS (www.boatus.com). Once obtained, you can program the MMSI number yourself one time only using the operation described in “My MMSI ID“ on page 81. Otherwise, your Raymarine dealer can program or change the number for you. The Ray49 includes a separate dedicated receiver just for DSC communications on channel 70. When a DSC call is received, the radio automatically responds based on the type of call. When receiving a DSC call from another vessel or a coast station, an alert sounds and DSC data appears in the LCD–such as time of a call, the caller and the type and priority of a call. 5.1 DSC Call Menu You access DSC functions via the DSC menu. Press and hold the MENU/DSC key for 3 seconds to enter DSC call mode. Note: Distress calls are made using the DISTRESS key. The Ray49 can make the following type of DSC calls: DSC Call TypeDescription DISTRESSSends out your MMSI number, the nature of your Distress, and the position and time information currently displayed. This information is from NMEA data, if available, or the position data you have entered manually. This digital information lets other ships and shore stations equipped with appropriate DSC equipment know where you are and that you are in a Distress situation. Distress Calls are made using the DISTRESS key. INDIVIDUALMakes a ROUTINE DSC call to a specific station identified by its MMSI number.

Most examples in this chapter describe making selections using the CH/OK knob on the transceiver. 2. However, you can also press the microphone up/down keys to make your selections and then press the microphone HI/LO key to accept. GROUPSends transmissions that are only received by radios sharing a com- mon Group MMSI number. Up to 3 Group MMSI numbers can be stored and called. ALL SHIPSSends out a message to all stations within range that you have impor- tant information but the situation is not serious enough for a Distress Call. All Ships calls should only be used if hailing for assistance on channel 16 fails. There are two types of All Ships Calls: SAFETY for advisory alerts and URGENCY for assistance when life is not in imme- diate danger. POSITION REQUEST This option enables you to request GPS position information from any vessel for which an MMSI number is known. You can specify the target vessel either by selecting it from your MMSI phonebook or by manu- ally entering its MMSI number. You can also be requested to send out your position to someone else. RECEIVED CALLS Three separate logs listing all received DSC Call types by number and time of call. Entries are separated into the following: Distress Log, Call Log for all other types of DSC Calls, and Position Log. NOTE: You can place a call directly from a log to the station that is cur- rently displayed. You can also add the displayed station to the DSC Phonebook. DSC Call TypeDescription D10023-1 Chapter 5: Digital Selective Calling (DSC)59 5.2 Distress Calls For a Distress Call transmission, the Ray49 takes the position and time information (either from NMEA or manually input) along with your MMSI and converts it into a digital “packet”. When transmitted, this digital information lets other ships and shore stations equipped with appropriate DSC equipment know where you are and that you are in a Distress situation. Your call can specify the nature of the Distress (designated call) or not (undesignated call). Sending a Distress Call Lift the spring-loaded door on the front panel of the transceiver. Undesignated (Quick) Distress Call To send a distress call without specifying its nature: • Press and hold the red DISTRESS key for 3 seconds to initiate the call. During this time, the radio beeps, the display flashes and a timer counts down 03...02...01.
