Group MMSI Number
Nautical organizations such as yacht clubs and the organizers of events
such as regattas can establish Group MMSIs. These allow a message to be
sent automatically to all members of the group without having to call each
one individually.
Each member of the group must enter the group MMSI number in his radio
in order to receive group messages.
To enter a group MMSI number:
1. Enter the Settings menu and scroll to
GROUP MMSI
(group MMSI) with the Up/Down buttons.
2. Press the Call/Set button and the blinking cursor will
appear at the first digit under
GROUP MMSI ID ENTRY
.
3. Use the Up/Down buttons to scroll through the
number list to that digit of your number.
4. Press the Call/Set button to select the digit and the
blinking cursor will move to the next digit of the number.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until all nine digits of
the group MMSI number are entered.
NOTE
Press the High/Low Power button to backspace
and erase the last selected number.
6. Check that you have entered the number correctly.
7. Press and hold the Call/Set button to return
to the Settings menu.
The group MMSI is established by modifying the MMSI
assigned to one of the group members. The last digit of
that member’s MMSI number is dropped and a zero is
inserted at the beginning. For example, member MMSI
number 366123456 becomes group MMSI number
036612345.
Group MMSIs can be entered and changed any number
of times without encountering the need to have your
radio reset.
