This chapter provides the information necessary for data reporting and polling 
reception. Data reporting provides automatic data transmission at regular 
intervals from your ship to your home office. When your ship receives a polling 
command from your home office; that is, a request for navigation data from your 
ship, it automatically transmits this data to your home office. 
 
No operator intervention is required during polling reception.

Data reporting provides automatic data transmission at predetermined intervals 
from your ship to your home office. The data are position, speed, bearing and 
other data sent from the internal GPS navigator. 
 
The data transmitted from the FELCOM 16 is temporarily stored in a data 
reporting file at the LES. When an operator at your home office accesses the 
LES, the LES delivers the data to your home office. Some LESs may deliver it 
without being accessed. 
 
Data reporting can be initiated by setting a data report on the FELCOM 16 or 
receiving a polling command from your home office. 
 
FELCOM 16 offers two types of reports as follows: 

• Data reporting (on MES signaling channel) 

Refer to paragraph 5.1.1. 

• Message reporting (on MES message channel)   

Refer to paragraph 5.1.2.
