With the Voice Distress feature you can make Distress and Urgency calls using the FleetBroadband
service.
The Voice Distress system includes a FleetBroadband system, a SAILOR 3771 Alarm Panel and a
Thrane IP Handset.
To make a Distress call: Push and hold the red button on the alarm panel for 5 seconds. When the
Distress IP Handset rings, pick up the phone. You are now put through to the nearest rescue
centre. Follow the procedure for Voice Distress calls.
For details on the Voice Distress system and how to make a Distress call, see the Voice Distress
(Non-SOLAS) User manual, 98-133687.
Note
Your airtime subscription must include Voice Distress and your
FleetBroadband system must be set up for Voice Distress to be
able to use this feature. See Voice Distress on page 121.
The software version of the Thrane IP Handset used for
Distress must be at least version 1.12, in order to support the
