1.10.2 How to edit/view regional channels
You may display the status of regional operating areas currently memorized in the
equipment. Nine of any combination of AIS message from shore-based AIS, DSC
message, manual settings and commands from ECDIS or a PC may be registered and
one will be [HIGH SEA].
• AIS and DSC messages registered within last two hours cannot be edited.
• An item labeled [HIGH SEA] cannot be edited. ([HIGH SEA] are data used for inter-
national waters not controlled by shore-based AIS.)
• If two areas overlap one another the older data is deleted.
• Data older than 24 hours is deleted.
• Area data is deleted when it is more than 500 miles from the area for which it was
registered.
