Uniden UM725 Radio Owner’s Manual
MMSI NUMBER
When you power up your radio for the first time,
MMSI Not Entered
appears, followed by
a Marine mode screen. In order to use DSC features, you must be assigned an individual
User MMSI number and program that number into your radio. User MMSI numbers are
unique and cannot be entered more than once.
If you choose to not enter your specific MMSI number at initial start up
, you can still
use many of your radio's features. However, some radio functions will be impacted, and
you will not be able to use any DSC features
.
You can get more information on MMSI numbers at these resources:
