NOTE The Group MMSI number may be allocated on a temporary
basis by the local administration, for this reason the number
can be changed by the user.
From the Numbers menu (section 8.2) select “GROUP MMSI”
and press O
K – the display will show the Group MMSI, unless
the number has not been entered yet (in which case it will show
“_ _ _”). To enter the Group MMSI number press O
K again. The
display will change to show “ENTER MMSI” and the first dash
in the number will start flashing to indicate that entry can begin.
The first digit of a Group MMSI number is always “0” and this
is pre-selected by the radio. Enter the remaining eight digits
using the numeric keypad and press O
K (Fig 8.7).
Use the CALL and MSG keys to correct any errors. The
cursor position is indicated by the flashing number. Enter a
new number to overwrite an incorrect number.
NOTE The number will not be accepted unless all eight remaining
digits have been entered.
Press O
N/C to return to the main menu.
8.2.3 ATIS number
NOTE This section applies only to radios used in countries where the
ATIS system is in operation (i.e. Benelux and the Rhine/Danube
waterways). This option will only appear on ATIS-equipped
radios. (Please refer to section 1.5 also.)
CAUTION The ATIS number can only be entered once and cannot be edit-
ed by the user. If it is necessary to change the ATIS number, the
radio must be sent to an authorised Simrad service agent for
reprogramming.
From the Numbers menu (section 8.2) select “ATIS NO”; the
display will show the ATIS number, unless the number has not
been entered yet (in which case it will show “_ _ _”).
