3.3 Alert Messages
The radio has several warning messages to alert you to special conditions.
Battery Voltage High
Indicates boat’s battery voltage exceeds 15.8 VDC
(typical). If voltage exceeds 18.5 volts (typical), the radio
powers itself off to prevent equipment damage.
Battery Voltage Low
Indicates boat’s battery voltage is below 10.5 VDC
(typical), which is the lowest voltage at which the radio can
be reliably operated.
Base in Use
Indicates that the base station (transceiver) is in use and
has priority. Only appears on a Raymic second station when
the transceiver is already is use.
3.4 Turning the Power ON and OFF
Turn the PWR/VOL knob clockwise until it clicks.
When the unit powers up in standby mode it:
• Beeps, illuminates the backlight at full brightness, and displays a self-test.
• Recalls the last channel number, TX power settings and operation mode.
If no last-used setting data exists, goes to channel 16 and high TX Power.
• When GPS Data is available, extended position data is displayed with the off-
set time. This information will be displayed when display option for the posi-
tion and time is enabled on the Menu. See Section 4.4.
• When the MMSI number is not programmed, you are prompted to enter the
number as described on page 96. You must then press OK to continue.
To turn the unit OFF, rotate the
PWR/VOL knob completely counter clockwise
until it clicks.
