4.8.1 RENDEZVOUS LIST
The Rendezvous List displays all other units in the CDP’s group that have rendezvous enabled. It is accessed
from the CDP menu: Main Menu Rendezvous (RV) List
Information available for the other units includes:
Name/Call sign
Bearing from current location
Distance from current location
GPS coordinates (Lat/Long)
Timestamp (in UTC) for information shown
Only units configured with the same level of encryption will be able to use the rendezvous functions with each
other.
4.8.2 SELECTING A UNIT FOR RENDEZVOUS
From the Rendezvous List, press the up/down arrow buttons (▲,▼) to scroll through the list of available units for
rendezvous. Selecting a unit will display detailed information about the unit including its call sign, and the
distance, bearing and timestamp of the unit’s position at power up (shown in UTC). Pressing the up/down arrows
(▲,▼) will show the latitude and longitude of the unit’s position at power up.
Press the Select ◙ key to initiate rendezvous with that unit. A brief message will display, ‘Info... RV Requested.
Please wait...’, followed by the refreshed rendezvous units distance, bearing, latitude and longitude. Press the
up/down arrows (▲,▼) to show the longitude.
Press the left arrow button (◄) to return to the Rendezvous List.
While in rendezvous mode, the display will update automatically with the followed units current distance, bearing
and location. The pilot can use the information obtained from following rendezvous to adjust the course and/or
speed of the helicopter in order to more effectively track the vessel being followed.
Multiple units can be selected for rendezvous. After selecting a unit for rendezvous, press the left arrow key (◄)
to return to the Rendezvous List and select another unit for rendezvous. Only the last unit selected will have its
current location data displayed. If you wish to view the rendezvous data for the other unit(s) press the left arrow
key (◄) to return to the Rendezvous List and select the desired unit again.
