Registering scan groups
The central system emits a free-signal to indicate a coast station radio channel is in idle
condition and available for ship-to-shore calls. The free-signal is detected and recognized
by the shipboard equipment as a permission to start the transmission. Then, the shipboard
operator initiates a call.
You can scan search for the free-signal automatically by registering coast station radio
channels in scan group(s). The procedure for registering scan groups for coast station use
is the same as that which appears on page 8-7.
Registering stations
The next step is to enter station name. The procedure is the same as that shown on page
8-3.
