How to view sent ETA messages and received RTA messages
A lock authority responds to an ETA message with an RTA message. An RTA mes-
sage contains the date and time the lock authority requests that your ship arrive to the
lock, lock status and the particulars of the lock (country code, location code, etc.)
When an RTA message is received, a pop up showing the message "RTA MESSAGE
RECEIVED." appears. The pop up also shows the sender’s MMSI ID, or the sender’s
name it if is included in the message.
To view past messages, do the following:
1. Press the MENU/ESC key to open the menu.
2. Select [MSG], then press the ENT/ACK key.
3. Select [ETA/RTA], then press the ENT/ACK key.
4. Select [MSG BOX], then press the ENT/ACK key. The message box appears.
Press W or X to switch between the [OUTBOX(ETA)] and [INBOX(RTA)] tabs.
5. Select the message you wish to view, then press the ENT/ACK key. The message
options pop up window shown below appears.
Select [VIEW DETAIL], then press the ENT/ACK key to display the received mes-
sage’s contents. The figure above shows an example of a received message.
Select [NEW MSG], then press the ENT/ACK key to send a message back to this
message’s sender.
6. Press S or T to view other messages, press W or X to switch between viewing
an [INBOX] message and an [OUTBOX] message.
