DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING (DSC)

D
Dealing with ID and Priority
When controllers are connected to the transceiver, the unique ID is automatically
assigned to each controller in order from 1 to 99.
Once a controller is set as the Priority Controller, however, its ID is replaced with 0
because the ID of the Priority Controller ID is fixed at 0.
To check the current ID of each controller, open the “ID” screen.
[MENU] > Settings > Configuration > Controller >
ID
L
The IDs are for display only and cannot be edited.
L
The ID of an external device is assigned by the
device itself, not by the transceiver.
NOTE:
With Non-Priority Controllers, you cannot make changes to the DSC-related
settings listed below. To configure the settings, use the Priority Controller.

When a controller gets disconnected while holding a DSC task:
Controllers are considered disconnected when the following conditions are met.
Controller
Condition
Command microphone
Unplugged or turned off
External device
The transceiver has not received a single sentence via
the NMEA 0183 interface in the last 2 minutes.
Once a controller is disconnected, the right to handle a DSC task will be released.
After that, the first Non-Priority Controller operated will have the right.

When the Priority Controller is disconnected, the controller names are displayed with
“(None)” appended.
