The preset SRM message which is transmitted is called:
PAN PAN PAN. Subsequently the SRM LED starts flashing for one minute .
When this LED stops flashing you may send another SRM message at the
push of the button. (As a consequence more frequent transmission than
one SRM per minute is not possible which corresponds to international
AIS regulations. Please do not connect a switch with the cables. A
permanently connected switch does not lead to a transmission every
minute. Our transceivers verify a „real“ push of a button to trigger a SRM
transmission.)
If you want to use this function you may purchase the easyCPA³ as
accessory. It is a small box which includes a button for PAN PAN and a
switch for switching to “silent mode” next to an external signal generator
for CPA alert and AIS S.A.R.T.
21.4.2
Switch (function set by software)
The default value is set to silent mode. If you want to change the function
please do this by using the programming tool.
21.4.2.1
Silent mode „pure receiving mode“
According to the cable assignment under 3.9.1(Pos. 9 and Pos. 10 in the
spreadsheet), the brown and the yellow cable of the 4-pole cable are
destined for this functionality. If these cables are connected to a SWITCH
(not a BUTTON) e.g. switchboard and short-circuit the cables with the
button, i.e. connect them the easyTRX2 Transceiver is set to pure receiving
mode, i.e. “silent mode”.
By opening the switch the TRX2 resets to normal conditions automatically,
i.e. receiving and transmitting mode.
This function is preset by default with a switch on the easyCPA³ unit.
