Ignore function
When an T/CPA Alert is activated, you have the following options:
• Press X to silence the alert. The T/CPA Alert may activate again if the approaching vessel is still
calculated to come within the set distance of your vessel.
• Press DSC/Menu to Ignore any further alerts from this vessel.
• Press DSC/Menu again to confirm.
Ignoring a vessel works by silencing any further T/CPA alerts from the same vessel, regardless if it is still
approaching.
However, if the T/CPA calculation status return to SAFE, the ignored vessel status will be cleared. In this
case, it is possible to receive a further T/CPA alert from the same vessel.
¼ Note: The alert will sound again after 1 minute if the AIS alarm has not been resolved.
¼ Note: Ignored vessels are reset once the radio is re-powered.
Handsets
The system is capable of supporting up to eight handsets as below:
• Up to Four fixed or wired handsets (FHS)
• Up to Four wireless handsets (WHS).
• Fixed handsets are wired at a position in the vessel, while Wireless handsets provide you with the
freedom to operate your radio system remotely as you roam about the vessel.
• FHS’s are wired into Handset terminals in the blackbox radio.
• Wireless handsets must initially be paired with the blackbox radio (the Host) through the pairing
process. Refer to “Pair a wireless handset” on page 32 for more details.
• Handsets are provided a handset identification number which is displayed at the top of its screen
above the channel number. F1-4, W1-4.
• Handsets can also be named. Giving the handset a name helps in identifying a handset you wish to
speak to in Intercom menus. The name appears in handset diagnostics, Intercom menus and at the top
of the handset screen.
