The Nav6 display contains a buzzer that can generate audible
alarms for the following conditions:
Option Notes

SAR Alarm
Morse code: Dot dot dot, dash dash dash, dot dot
dot.. Repeated every ten seconds.
Indicates reception of a message type D, Search
And Rescue Navtex message.
Antenna Alarm
Short dah dee, dah dee. Repeated every eight
seconds.
Indicates that there is a fault in the Navtex antenna
or the cabling; see the Fault Finding section for
more details.
The alarms can be enabled or disabled via the [SETUP MODE,
GENERAL VIEW, OPTIONS PAGE]. When enabled, the SAR Alarm
and Antenna Alarm can be set to repeat 5 times or to repeat
continuously.
(Tip: When an alarm is active, pressing any of the softkeys will
cancel the alarm. The normal softkey action will not occur).
(Tip: When an alarm is active, an alarm bell icon will flash on the
status bar).
The red LED found above the softkeys, can be setup (on the Setup

unread new messages or SAR messages. This can be useful in a
noisy environment where audible alarms cannot be easily heard.
