Garmin 278 Manual De Usuario

Use the DSC tab (Marine Mode only) to control and set up the 

Digital Selective Calling (DSC) features. DSC uses marine VHF 

radio and GPS to transmit and receive location information. DSC is 

used by mariners for distress calls and position reporting. 
For more information about DSC and Maritime Mobile Service 

Identity (MMSI) numbers, see pages 

 in the 

.

The Call List sub tab shows the 50 most recent calls, even if the unit 

is left unattended. The Call List only shows the most recent call from 

a vessel. If a second call is received, it replaces the first call in the Call 

List. Press MENU to sort the list and delete entries. 

When DSC calls are received, they are automatically stored in the 

Log, with the most recent call at the top. The unit can store up to 

100 calls; after 100 calls are received, the oldest log file is removed 

when a new call is received.
