4.6.18.3 Receiving an Individual Call
When an Individual Call is received, the DSC indicator flashes, Ind
appears on the 7-segment display, and the DSC Received Alert is sounded.
On the dot matrix display appears the message RECEIVED IND CALL
along with the type of call: ROUTINE, SAFETY, or URGENCY. If the
MMSI number exists in the Phonebook list, the associated name is also
displayed. If no match is found, the actual numeric value of the MMSI is
displayed. Lastly, a prompt appears to press ENT to accept or CLR to log
the call. This sequence scrolls every second.
Until either the ENT key or the CLR key are pressed, the prompt is flashed
at 1-second intervals and is accompanied by an alarm for up to 3 minutes.
If neither ENT nor CLR are pressed during these 3 minutes, the radio
places the incoming call into the DSC log and reverts to the operation
mode that was active before the Individual Call was received. The DSC
indicator continues to be flashed on the LCD display until the contents of
the log files can be confirmed
If ENT is pressed, the alarm is turned off, and a new prompt appears on
the display, instructing you to press the PTT key. Press PTT to transmit an
acknowledgment (ACK). If PTT is not pressed within 5 seconds of the
prompt appearing, the transmission is done automatically. Pressing the
PTT key causes the channel to change to the communication channel.
