,I<RX,QFRUUHFWO\(QWHU<RXU006,1XPEHU
YOU CAN DO THIS ONLY ONCE! An attempt to enter an MMSI number again will result
in an error message as shown.
Pressing the EXIT soft key from the error message will return the radio to the DSC
SETUP MENU.
Once the error message appears, the radio will still operate in all non-DSC modes.
But you will have to contact Cobra
®
Electronics (see product service on page 84 for
details) for reset before you can enter a new MMSI number into the radio.
Because the MMSI number is so important to DSC operation, this limitation is imposed
on all DSC capable radios to prevent constant changes and the potential introduction
of errors in the process.
