Digital Selective Calling
Man-Overboard Distress Calls Initiated from a VHF Radio
When your Garmin chartplotter is connected to a Garmin NMEA 2000-compatible radio, and
you initiate a man-overboard DSC distress call from your radio, your Garmin chartplotter shows
the man-overboard screen and prompts you to navigate to the man-overboard point. If you have
a Garmin autopilot system connected to the network, your chartplotter prompts you to start a
Williamson’s turn to the man-overboard point.
If you cancel the man-overboard distress call on the radio, the chartplotter screen prompting you to
activate navigation to the man-overboard location disappears.
Man-Overboard Distress Calls Initiated from the Chartplotter
When your Garmin chartplotter is connected to a Garmin NMEA 2000-compatible radio and you
activate navigation to a man-overboard location, the radio shows the Distress Call page so you can
quickly initiate a man-overboard distress call.
On the radio, press and hold the DISTRESS key for at least three seconds to send the distress call.
For information on placing distress calls from your radio, see your Garmin VHF Radio Owner’s
Manual. You can mark an MOB and navigate to it (page 34).
Position Tracking
When you connect your Garmin chartplotter to a VHF radio using NMEA 0183, you can track
vessels that send position reports. This feature is also available with NMEA 2000, provided that the
vessel sends the correct PGN data (PGN 129808; DSC Call Information).
Every position report call received is logged in the DSC list (page 108).
