The Ray54’s DSC Call type and structure are as follows:
DSC Call Type Description
INDIVIDUAL
Makes a ROUTINE DSC call to a specific station identified by its MMSI
number.
GROUP
Sends transmissions that are only received by radios that share a common
Group MMSI number. Up to 3 Group MMSI numbers can be stored and
called.
ALL SHIPS
Sends out a message to all ships within range that you need assistance but
the situation is not serious enough for a Distress Call. All Ships calls should
only be used if hailing for assistance on channel 16 fails. There are two
types of All Ships Calls: SAFETY for advisory alerts and URGENCY for assis-
tance when life is not in immediate danger.
DISTRESS
Sends out the position and time information from the input NMEA data
along with your MMSI number. This digital information lets other ships
and shore stations equipped with appropriate DSC equipment know
where you are and that you are in a Distress situation.
