1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW    1-8 1.2.3  Adjusting volume of loudspeaker The VOLUME control adjusts the volume of the loudspeaker.   1.2.4 Adjusting squelch The SQUELCH control adjusts the squelch threshold level. Adjust it so that white noise heard in the loudspeaker just fades out. Perform this operation when no traffic is being received. AUTO squelch automatically reduces white noise. Usually select the AUTO position. Avoid turning the squelch too far clockwise — you may miss a long distance communication.  Note: To obtain correct scan watch/dual watch response, adjust the SQUELCH control precisely.   1.2.5 Transmitting Press the PTT (Push-to-talk) switch on the handset or microphone to talk, and release it to listen for the response. The VHF section keyboard accepts no key input when the PTT switch is operated.  Remarks on transmitting •  Before transmitting, think about the subjects which have to be communicated and, if necessary, prepare written notes to avoid unnecessary interruptions and ensure that no valuable time is wasted on a busy channel. •  Listen before commencing to transmit to make certain that the channel is not already in use.   1.2.6 Selecting output power After pressing the SHIFT key, each press of the 0 HI/LO key selects high or low output power. Also Hi or Lo appears on the screen depending on your selection.    The transmitter power is automatically set for low on the following channels:  International:   CH15, CH17, CH75, CH76 USA:  CH13, CH17, CH67; to operate USA channel 13 or 67 in high power, keep HI/LOW pressed while talking into the handset.   1.2.7  Turning the loudspeaker on/off To turn the loudspeaker on/off, press the SHIFT key, then the 1 key. The loudspeaker off mark appears when the speaker is off. The loudspeaker is automatically turned off when the telephone handset is used.
1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW    1-91.2.8  Quick selection of CH16 Press the CH16 key to select CH16, the International Calling and Safety Channel. The use is limited to distress, safety and calling. The transmission on CH16 (156.800 MHz) should be limited to within 1 minute except for distress calling.  Avoid calling on CH16 for purposes other than distress, urgency and very brief safety communications when another calling channel is available.   1.2.9 Dual watch The dual watch function permits watch on CH16 and another selected channel. CH16 and another channel are watched at intervals of 0.15 seconds and one second, respectively.  To start dual watch, first select the other frequency to watch and then press the SHIFT key and 9 DW key in that order. When the receiver finds a signal on CH16, it locks on it and restarts dual watching after the signal on CH16 has gone. If another channel has traffic, it still continues dual watch. The speech is heard intermittently. If you are annoyed with the intermittence, turn off the dual watch by pressing the PTT switch on the handset or pressing the SHIFT and 9 DW key again.   1.2.10 Scanning The receiver scans all channels at intervals of 0.15 seconds in the selected channel mode in ascending channel order, watching CH16 between channels as below: 1 16 2 16 3 16 4...16 88 16 87 16 86 16...  To start scanning, press the SHIFT and 8 SCAN in that order. When the receiver finds a signal, scanning is stopped on that channel and starts dual watch on it and CH16.   1.2.11  Remarks on voice communications Automatic acknowledge (DSC operation) is automatically changed to manual acknowledge when voice communications begin. (The “auto” indication, however, remains on the screen.) This is done to prevent a break in communications. Automatic acknowledge is automatically restored once voice communications are terminated.
1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW    1-10 1.3  DSC Operational Overview Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is the global calling system adopted by the ITU-R and IMO for selective calling of coast station and ship radio stations. The DSC system is used for both safety and routine calling. The GMDSS requires the use of DSC for distress alerting and safety calls.  1.3.1 LED warnings The LED below the DISTRESS key lights continuously when the distress signal is transmitted.    The ALARM LED blinks in red (and alarm sounds) when a distress or urgent message is received. The LED can be extinguished and alarm silenced by pressing the CANCEL key. The ALARM LED blinks in green (and alarm sounds) when a message other than distress or urgent is received. Alarm is automatically silenced five seconds after message is received.  1.3.2 DSC operational overview Standby display When the FM-8800D/S is turned on, the following display appears. This display is known as the “standby display.” This is where you will begin most operations.

1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW    1-11Preparing and transmitting DSC messages There are two methods by which you can prepare and transmit DSC messages, and they are shown below.  ● Preparing message for immediate transmission 1. Press the CALL key at the standby display. 2.  Select the call type. 3.  Select other party if necessary. 4.  Select the communications category. 5.  Select the communications channel. 6. Press the CALL key.  ● Transmitting a message stored in the memory 100 messages can be saved to the memory. You may open a memory-stored message and transmit it.  Distress alert transmission and output power When the distress alert is transmitted (by pressing the DISTRESS key), the output power of the FM-8800D/S is automatically set to maximum (25 W).  When keyboard input is prohibited DSC-related controls cannot be operated while a DSC message is being transmitted. (These controls are inoperative about 3 seconds during a DSC distress call; 0.5 seconds for other DSC calls.)  1.3.3  Automatic acknowledge on/off The automatic acknowledge feature of the DSC/watch receiver automatically transmits the acknowledge back (ACK BQ) signal to the sending station when an individual, position or polling call is received. (For position and polling calls, respective item on the AUTO ACK menu must be turned on to enable automatic acknowledge.) Automatic acknowledge can be turned on or off at the standby display by pressing the SHIFT and 5 keys in this order.   The message AUTO ACK or MANUAL ACK appears at the bottom of the standby display with each press of the keys.  Note 1: To give priority to own ship's communications while own ship is communicating, show MANUAL ACK by the above procedure. Note 2: Automatic acknowledge is not possible under the following conditions:   Priority:    Distress, Urgency or Safety   Com Type:    Fax, Data, No Info   Com Freq:    No Info  Off Hook
1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW    1-12 1.4 Priority If one or more remote stations are installed, the transceiver unit (main unit) has the highest priority. You can interrupt remote station operation at any time with the handset of the main unit. When you hook off the handset of the main unit, “OCCUPIED FM8800” is indicated on all remote stations.  Each remote station has its own priority. The remote station ID (1-4) indicates its priority. The priority of the system is as follows.  DSC of main unit > Wing handset > Handset of main unit > 1 > 2 > 3 > 4  If you hook off No.4 remote station, for example, “Occupied Handset.4” is displayed on other remote stations. However, you can hook off and use No.1 handset.  How to set priority of the remote station Two persons are required to set priority on a remote station, one at the main unit and one at the remote station. 1.  Turn off the power at the main unit. 2.  While pressing the MENU key of a remote station, turn the VOLUME/ POWER control clockwise on the main unit to turn on the power.

Procedure when in area A1 1.  When the FM-8800D/8800S receives a distress alert from another vessel, the ALARM LED (red) blinks and the FM-8800D/8800S sounds the distress alarm. 2.  Silence the alarm by pressing the CANCEL key. 3.  Wait up to five minutes until the DIST ACK signal from a coast station is received. Be prepared to follow the instructions of the coast station. 4.  If you do not receive the DIST ACK signal, follow the flow chart shown on page 2-8 to determine if your vessel should acknowledge a distress alert.  If further DSC alerts are received from the same source and the ship in distress is beyond doubt in the vicinity, a DSC acknowledgement may, after consultation with an Rescue Co-ordination Center (RCC) or Coast Station, be sent to terminate the distress call.  Note 1: An asterisk (*) in a received distress alert message indicates error or unknown at the location marked with the asterisk. Note 2: Do not send DIST ACK in response to receipt of distress alert having the nature of distress as “EPIRB emission”.
