Garmin International Inc 01653 Manuel D’Utilisation

Automatic Transmitter Identification System (ATIS) is a vessel identification

system used on certain inland waterways in some European countries. See your

Garmin dealer to program your VHF radio if you plan to use your radio on

waterways that are within the bounds of the Regional Arrangement Concerning

the Radiotelephone Service on Inland Waterways (the Basel Agreement). ATIS is

prohibited outside the European inland waterways that are covered by the Basel

Agreement.
When you enable ATIS, your radio sends a data signal identifying your station at

the end of every transmission. Data identifying your position is not sent, but your

position is calculated through the method of triangulation by coastal stations that

receive your transmissions.
To enable ATIS, you must enter your ATIS identification number (page 6), and

turn on ATIS. See your Garmin dealer to determine your ATIS identification

number and to learn about ATIS requirements for your region.
Your radio disables these functions when you enable ATIS.

• Dual watch and Tri watch
• Channel scanning
International channels 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 71, 72, 74, and 77 restrict

transmitting to low-power (1 W) when you enable ATIS.

You can enter your ATIS identification number only once. If you must change

your ATIS identification number after entering it, you must take your radio to your

Garmin dealer for reprogramming.
