Programming the Radio Manually
The radio must have a GPS position fix before you can program it.
Operating a radio transmitter with an MMSI number that is assigned to a different vessel may lead to penalties from your country's telecommunications authorities.
Outside the United States, you can program the radio by entering the MMSI number and vessel information.
-
Select
> Settings > Vessel Details.
- Enter your MMSI, vessel name, callsign, vessel type, and vessel dimensions.
- Select Program.
After you have programmed the radio with an MMSI number and vessel information, you cannot readily change it. If you move the radio to a new vessel, you must reprogram it before you can legally operate it on the new vessel. You can reprogram the radio without removing it from the vessel. See the Owner's Manual at garmin.com/manuals/SignalVHF or contact your Garmin dealer for instructions.
