ATIS Function
This operation enables or disables the ATIS feature in the radio. This feature
accommodates users who travel outside the inland waterways and wish to
disable the ATIS function at that time.
Note:
If you purchased your Ray218E/Ray55E to include use on the inland waterways of
the contracting governments of the “Regional Arrangement Concerning the Radiotele-
phone Service on Inland Waterways”– also known as the Basel Agreement– your radio
has been programmed by your dealer to include ATIS. If ATIS is enabled, certain program-
ming steps have been implemented to protect the integrity of this agreement, including the
blocking of DSC functions when ATIS is active.
When ATIS is enabled, the following occurs:
• DSC functions are disabled.
• Dual Watch, Tri Watch and all Scan functions are disabled.
• The following International Channels are limited to 1 watt output power:
6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 71, 72, 74, 75, 76, 77 (and 31, if enabled).
To enable/disable ATIS:
1. From the ATIS OPERATION menu, select ATIS FUNC.
2. Use the up/down arrow soft keys to set the ATIS function ON or OFF.
3. Press SELECT.
4. Press the DONE soft key to accept.
• If set ON, the ATIS icon appears and DSC functions are disabled.
• If set OFF, the ATIS icon disappears and DSC functions are enabled.
