Automatic Channel Changing for Incoming Calls
For incoming Distress and All Ships Urgency Calls, this option determines whether
your radio automatically switches to Priority Channel 16 to receive the call or
prompts you to manually accept or decline the channel change.
The default setting is to ENABLE the auto channel change. If set OFF, the
icon
appears on the LCD.
This feature is useful for preventing your radio from automatically switching
channels while you are maintaining a continuous watch on a certain channel (for
example, in a VTS controlled area) or working with other vessels (for example, for
towage).
Note:
This feature can disable automatic channel switching for incoming DSC Distress
and All Ships Urgency Calls. If enabled, you are responsible for determining whether man-
ually declining the call is appropriate.
To enable/disable automatic channel change:
1. From DSC SETUP, rotate the
CH/OK
knob until the arrow points to AUTO CH
CHG.
2. Press the
CH/OK
knob to accept.
3. Rotate the
CH/OK
knob until the arrow points to your selection:
• If you accept ON (the default), your Ray49E automatically changes to
channel 16 when a Distress or All Ships Urgency Call is received.
• If you accept OFF, on receipt of a Distress or All Ships Urgency Call you are
presented with brief details of the call and advised that a change to chan-
nel 16 has been requested. You can either accept the channel change or
decline, thereby continuing to monitor your current channel. When set
OFF, the
icon appears on the LCD.
If you accept the request, the call is received, a tone sounds and the radio
is changed to channel 16. Pressing any key disables the alarm. If you
ignore the call, after 5 minutes the radio declines the call, records the call
in the Call Log and maintains normal operation.
4. Press
CH/OK
to accept.
