Power failure while in Distress
In case of a power failure or switch-off during the transmission of a Distress
the SAILOR 6300 MF/HF DSC gives an audible warning after power-up and
automatically resumes sending Distress 10 seconds after power up. Within
the 10 seconds you have the following options:
•Push QUIT to terminate the active Distress procedure (acknowledged
or unacknowledged).
•Push RESUME (or do nothing) to resume the sending Distress
procedure.
Sending a Distress from the SAILOR 6103 Multi Alarm
Panel
The optional SAILOR 6103 Multi Alarm Panel will, when
connected to the MF/HF radio, indicate in the SAILOR 6103
display that a Distress can be sent over MF/HF.
To send a Distress alert from the SAILOR 6103 Multi Alarm Panel, do as
follows:
1. Lift the cover of the Distress button marked MF/HF Distress.
2. Push and hold the button until the light is steady and the buzzer stops
(more than 3 seconds).
The MF/HF radio is now in Distress mode. Continue the Distress
procedures from the MF/HF radio front panel.
3. Push the MUTE button on the Alarm panel to mute the audible alarm
for current distress. All audible alarms are muted.
For further information see the Alarm Panel Installation and user manual.
Only undesignated Distress messages can be initiated from the
Alarm Panel.
