5 CALLING, RECEIVING
5-45
5.10 Log File
Three log files are provided for storage of calls: received ordinary log, received distress log
and transmitted log. Each log file stores 50 calls, on a first-in, first-out basis. This means
that the latest call is saved as log no.1 and the log no. of all previous calls in that log
increments by one. When the storage capacity is exceeded, the oldest call is deleted to
make room for the latest. An asterisk (*) marks unread or unacknowledged calls. Received
distress calls are automatically deleted 48 hours after being read.
5.10.1 Opening a log file
The procedure for opening a log is common to all logs. The example below shows how to
open the received distress log.
1. At the DSC standby screen, press the [LOG/TUNE] key to open the Log file menu.
