Scan ON : All channels tagged for scanning are scanned while
monitoring channel 16. (default).

ATIS code The ATIS code (Automatic Transmitter Identification System) is
used for identification to marine coast and inland stations and
its use is mandatory in a number of European inland waterways
such as e.g. the river Rhine. Like the MMSI number the ATIS
number is issued by the relevant authority.
ATIS for foreign leisure crafts: For ships coming from states
which are not member of the Regional Arrangement the ATIS-
Code is based on the MMSI with a 9 as the first digit.
a
Note: The ATIS number can be programmed once. If a wrong
number has been entered and stored, or if there is a
requirement to change it, contact your authorized dealer.
a. The Committee Rainwat in its 12.Meeting (October 2008) decided to change
the building rules of the ATIS code for vessels coming from a country outside
the RAINWAT arrangement.
