A Distress call should include the ship’s position and time.
If no GPS is connected, your position and UTC (Universal
Time Coordinated) time should be manually input. They are
automatically included when a GPS receiver compatible with
the NMEA 0183 (ver. 2.0 or later) or NMEA 2000* format is
connected.
*Some versions of IC-M506 do not have a NMEA 2000 connector.
