Garmin 190-01230-10 User Manual

Digital Selective Calling

The following table indicates the features that are available when you connect your chartplotter to a VHF radio over a NMEA 0183 network 

or a NMEA 2000 network.

The chartplotter can transfer your GPS position to 

your radio. If your radio is capable, GPS position 

information is transmitted with DSC calls.

The chartplotter can receive DSC distress and 

position information from the radio.

The chartplotter can track the positions  

of vessels sending position reports.

Quickly set up and send individual routine call 

details to your Garmin VHF radio.

When you initiate a man-overboard distress call 

from your radio, the chartplotter displays the man-

overboard screen and prompts you to navigate to 

the man-overboard point.

When you initiate a man-overboard distress call 

from your chartplotter, the radio displays the 

Distress Call page to initiate a man-overboard 

distress call.
