5. Channel Descriptions

The Radio Status Display indicates the

type of channel you have selected with

both a long and a short description. (Fig.

5) The long description will scroll from

right to left, and will be replaced by a

shorter description that stays in the Radio

Status Display. There is no universal

agreement on how to describe each chan-

nel, and some channels have different

purposes depending on where you’re

located in the US, but we’ve done our

best to provide helpful information. See

the appendix for a complete list of long

and short channel descriptions (pp. 20-23)

Fig. 5: Current Channel, MAR OPER Display

•

Channels used by recreational boaters

for ship to ship conversations are list-

ed as NON-COMMERCIAL in the

description. Examples are Channels

68, 69, 71, and 72.

6. Changing Between

USA, International,

7. Adjusting the

Squelch

The Squelch Control reduces the static

and noise heard on the radio, but allows

strong signals to be heard clearly. To

adjust the squelch setting, press the

SQL/UIC key quickly. The Radio Status

Display will show SQL - 0X, where X is

the current squelch setting. (Fig. 7a) Press

the ▲ or ▼ keys to adjust the squelch set-

ting from 00 to 08. Higher settings allow

only stronger signals will be heard, while

lower settings allow weak signals to be

received (and possibly annoying static).

Generally, the squelch control should be

set for the lowest setting that eliminates

unwanted static.

Fig. 7a: Squelch Level Setting Mode

•

Level 00 allows all signals to be

heard.

•

After no buttons are pressed for 3

seconds, the radio will return to nor-

mal receiving mode and the Radio

Status Display will show SQUELCH

LEVEL CHANGED. (Fig. 7b)

Fig. 7b: Squelch Level Changed display

8. Transmitting a Signal

To transmit a signal, press the Push-To-

Talk (PTT) button on the left side of the

radio. When PTT button is released, the

radio returns to Receive Mode.

•

When the PTT key is released, the

Radio Status Display will show TX

END (Fig. 8b)

You cannot transmit on receive-only

channels like the weather channels or

Channels 15 and 70. If you try, an

error tone will sound, the channel

number and TX indicator will blink

three times and the Radio Status

Display will show REC ONLY (Fig

8c). After 3 seconds, the radio returns

to the normal display, then goes back

to the normal display.

Fig. 8b: Transmission Ended Display

•

If the PTT button is pressed when

the battery condition is low, the radio

will send one last transmission, then

it will sound the Error Beep Tone

with BAT LO display. No further

transmission will be allowed. See

page 8.

9. Selecting the

Transmit Power

By law, Marine VHF radios must be able

to transmit at 1 watt power as well as the

radio’s maximum transmit power. The

West Marine VHF200 radio actually has

three transmit powers: 5 watts (HI), 1

watt (MED), and 0.5 watts (LOW).

Fig. 8c: Message shown when trying to transmit

on a receive-only channel

The general rule is to use the lowest

transmit power that results in clear com-

munications with whomever you are com-

municating. At distances less than a mile,

for example, 0.5 watts may result in clear

and consistent communications, and will

have the benefit of greatly extended bat-

tery life.

Pressing the H/L key will change the

transmit power from 5 watts (HI) to 1

watt (MED) to 0.5 watts (LOW) and back

to 5 watts with each press. The Radio

Status Display will indicate the newly

selected transmit power as follows:

•

When High Power is selected, the

bottom of the screen will Radio

Fig. 9a: High Power Display

West Marine VHF200 Owner’s Manual

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Status Display will show XMIT HI

for three seconds. (Fig. 9a)

•

When Medium Power is selected, the

Radio Status Display will show

XMIT MED for three seconds and the

M indicator will show. (Fig. 9b)

When Low Power is selected, the

Radio Status Display will show

XMIT LOW for three seconds and

the L indicator will show. (Fig. 9c)

Certain channels are limited by law to 1

watt transmit power: USA Mode Channel

13, 17, 67, 77; INT Mode Channel 15, 17;

CAN Mode Channel 13, 15, 17, 20, 66,

77. Therefore, the radio will automatically

select 1 watt power when operating on

these channels, and efforts to change the

transmit power will result in the error tone.

Fig. 9b: Medium Power Display

•

You cannot change the transmit

power setting on channels which are

receive-only channels: all weather

channels; USA Mode Channel 15,

70; INT Mode Channel 70; CAN

Mode Channel 70.

Fig. 9c: Low Power Display

•

Pressing the H/L key while scanning

or while in the Weather Mode will

result in the error tone and transmit

power will not change.

10. Battery Level Display

The battery level is checked periodically

and is shown using the Battery Level

Indicator (1–3 bars). More bars indicate

more battery capacity is left.

•

When the battery capacity is very

low, the low battery warning alarm

will sound every 10 seconds, the low

battery message LOW BATT will be

shown on the Radio Status Display,

and the battery indicator will blink.

(Fig. 10)

Blinking

Fig. 10: Low Battery Warning Display

•

When the low battery warning mes-

sage is displayed, the radio allows

one final transmission but it will not

allow further transmissions.

11. Weather Mode

Virtually all areas of the US and many

areas around the world are covered by

VHF weather reports on one of 10 chan-

nels. These reports provide current condi-

tions, forecasts, and warnings of danger-

ous weather 24 hours per day.

Press and release the WX/ALERT key to

toggle between Weather and Marine

Modes. In Weather Mode the Radio

Status Display will show WX MODE for

three seconds and the WX indicator will

be shown. (Fig. 11a) When switching

back to Marine Mode, the Radio Status

Display will show USA MODE or INT

MODE or CAN MODE for three sec-

onds. (Fig. 11b)

Fig. 11a: Weather Mode Display

•

While in Weather Mode, use the ▲ or

▼ keys to select from ten weather

channels. Most areas of the US are

covered by Weather Channels 01, 02,

and 03. The Radio Status Display

will verify which channel you’ve

selected (WEATHER1) as you

change channels.

Fig. 11b: Marine Mode Display

•

If you press the 16/9/TRI key while

in weather Mode, the radio will

change from the current weather

channel to Channel 16, then to

Channel 9, and then back to the

weather channel. The WX indicator

will flash, indicating that you are still

in weather Mode, while listening to

Channels 16 and 9.

•

While in Weather Mode, the MEM,

UIC, SCAN, H/L keys will not work.

If they are pressed , the radio will

sound an error tone.

12. Weather Alert

Weather Alert is a safety function that

allows the radio to monitor the local

weather channel for NOAA Weather

Alerts, while allowing you to listen to

other channels.

To set or cancel the Weather Alert func-

tion, press and hold the WX/ALERT key.

The display will switch from the current

channel display (Fig. 12a) to the Weather

Alert display for three seconds. The Radio

Status Display will show WX ALERT

ON. After three seconds, the display will

switch back to the current channel dis-

play. (Fig. 12b)

Fig. 12a: Normal Channel Display

While in Weather Alert Mode, the radio

will check the last-used weather channel

for alert tones every seven seconds. When

an alert tone is detected, the radio will

cancel the Alert option and change to the

weather channel. It will also sound an

alert detect alarm at maximum volume for

10 seconds.

•

If you’re using Weather Mode, and

the Alert option is on, the radio will

mute the speaker even though there is

a signal, until an alert tone is detect-

ed. This allows you to be aware of

alerts, but without having to listen to

the weather continuously. (Fig. 12c)

Fig. 12b: Weather Alert On

•

When an alert tone is detected, the

Scan and Triple Watch functions are

cancelled.

13. 16/9 Operation

By pressing the 16/9/TRI key briefly, the

radio will change from Channel 16 to

Channel 9 and back to the start channel.

For example, if the start channel is

Channel 24, pressing the 16/9/TRI will

change the channel from 24 to 16 to 9 and

back to 24. (Fig. 13a–13c)

•

If the 16/9/TRI key is pressed in

Weather Mode, Weather Mode is

paused temporally and the radio will

change from Channel 16 to Channel

09 to Weather Mode in turn. While

Channel 16 and 09 are displayed, the

14. Triple Watch

Triple Watch is a handy feature that lets

you monitor a channel of interest to you,

yet maintain a watch on Channels 9 and

16. Let’s say you need to monitor

Channel 15, the Environmental Channel,

but don’t want to miss important safety or

distress messages on Channel 16. Simply

select Channel 15 with the ▲ or ▼ keys,

then press and hold the 16/9/TRI key.

The TRI icon will be displayed. Every

two seconds, the radio will quickly moni-

tor Channels 16 and 9 before returning to

your selected channel. The Radio Status

Display will show the three channels

being monitored. (Fig. 14a)

Fig. 14a: Triple Watch Display

•

If there is traffic on Channel 9, the

radio will monitor Channel 9 until

the signal stops while checking

Channel 16 every two seconds.

(Fig. 14a)

•

If there is traffic on Channel 16, the

radio will monitor Channel 16 until

the signal stops. (Fig. 14b)

Fig. 14b: Triple Watch Display

Pressing the ▲ or ▼ keys in Triple

Watch will increment or decrement

the monitored channel.

15. Scanning Channels

Scanning allows you to monitor the traffic

or conversations on several channels in

quick succession. This can be helpful if

you’re trying to listing to fishing traffic

on several channels, or need to monitor

Race Committee traffic on Channels 68,

69, and 71.

As the radio detects traffic on any channel

in its scan list, it will pause until three

seconds after the last transmission, then

continue scanning.

Before you can scan channels, you need

to store two or more channels into the

radio’s scan memory.

19. Time out Transmit

Setting

Nothing is more disruptive to Marine

VHF communications than when some

boater has his or her microphone PTT

key pressed accidentally. The problem is

that there is no way to notify him that the

problem exists since the radio cannot

receive traffic.

Blinking

The VHF200 has a Time Out Transmit

feature that allows you to set a maximum

period of PTT key press time before the

radio will revert to Receive Mode. This is

set at the factory at five minutes, but you

can enter any value from one to twenty

minutes, or turn off the feature entirely.

Fig. 19a: TOT Set Display

To change the Time Out Transmit setting,

press and hold the MEM key and turn the

power on. Set the TOT time by pressing

the ▲ or ▼ keys. (Fig. 20a)

•

21. Battery Options for

the VHF200

The VHF200 comes with both the BP200

NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) recharge-

West Marine VHF200 Owner’s Manual

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

able battery back as well as an BT200

alkaline battery tray. For most use, the

BP200 battery pack will provide conven-

ient, long life service, and will operate

your radio for approximately 12 hours on

a charge. The length of service depends

largely on how much time you spend

transmitting, and what transmit power

you use.

When the radio and BP200 are placed in

the RSC200 charger base and power is

present, the LED on the front of the

charger base will be red if the power is on

but the radio is being charged, or green if

the radio is fully charged.

BT200 Alkaline Battery Pack

The BT200 alkaline battery pack can be

used as a backup to the BP200 battery

pack when charging may not be possible

or convenient. It holds 6 AA batteries.

When the alkaline batteries have dis-

charged, dispose of them safely. They

cannot be recharged using the supplied

chargers.

Charging the BP200

A feature of the NiMH pack is that you

can recharge at any time. The standard

charger SC200 will completely recharge

the BP200 battery pack in approximately

12 hours. If you need the radio prior to a

full charge, you can remove it from the

charger base at any state of charge. The

BP200 will not be damaged by extended

charge time.The best way to use the bat-

tery pack is to detach the battery pack

after full charge

Make sure to observe the polarity shown

on the inside of the alkaline battery tray

when installing the batteries.

Alkaline batteries have excellent shelf life

when kept in a cool environment, but they

can leak under certain circumstances. If

you store your radio for extended periods,

we recommend that you remove the alka-

line battery tray from the radio.

In SC200, when the radio and BP200 are

placed in the SC200 charger base and

power is present, the LED on the front of

the charger base will be red.

22. Maintenance

The VHF200 also includes the DC200

Cigarette Lighter Cord. The DC200 can

power the SC200 charger base from any

cigarette lighter socket. The DC200 plugs

into the charger base in the same socket

as the AC power supply.

•

The VHF200 is designed to provide

years of trouble free operation with

virtually no maintenance. Follow

these simple procedures to ensure

that the VHF200 continues to deliver

top performance.

Use of the Optional RSC200

Rapid Smart Charger

Rinse the VHF200 thoroughly with

fresh water after exposure to salt

water. Otherwise the radio’s keys,

switches, and controllers may

become inoperable due to salt crys-

tallization.

For faster charging of the BP200 battery

pack, the optional RSC200 Rapid Smart

Charger can be used. It will completely

recharge the BP200 in 90 minutes or less,

depending on state of discharge. The

RSC200 is a “smart charger” and will not

damage the BP200 even if the radio is left

in the charger base for long periods. The

best way to use the battery pack is to

detach the battery pack after full charge.

The RSC200 can only be powered by AC

current.

Be Careful! The VHF200 employs

JIS 7 waterproof construction (sub-

mersion to 1 m. depth for 30 min.).

However, waterproofness cannot be

guaranteed over time. Extreme shock

(dropping, etc.) may crack the case or

dislodge or damage the seals.

West Marine VHF200 Owner’s Manual

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Additionally, wear or improper bat-

tery pack installation can damage the

battery compartment seal.

•

Never transmit without an antenna

attached to avoid damage to the radio.

Avoid using or placing the VHF200

in areas with temperatures below -

20ºC (-4ºF) or above +60ºC

(+140ºF). Do not place in wind-

shields, etc.

•

Keep your battery contacts clean!

Wipe frequently. If visible corrosion

appears, polish with an emery cloth

or similar fine abrasive.

23. Troubleshooting Guide

Symptom:

The radio does not respond to key presses. The channel cannot be

changed.

Probable Cause:

Remedy:

Key Lock is on.

Press the I key (on the left side of the case, below the PTT key) for

three seconds to unlock the key pad.

Symptom:

You have arranged to communicate with another VHF radio user on a

specific channel, and you can’t hear them.

Probable Cause:

Remedy:

You and the other user are using different Country Codes.

Make sure that you are both using the same Country Mode (USA,

International, or Canadian). Several channels have the same numeric

designation, but are either on different frequencies or the channels are

used for different purposes. Channel 16, the Distress, Safety, and

Calling channel, is the same on all three bands.

Symptom:

You cannot change the transmit power setting.

Probable Cause:

You are on a channel which is limited to 1 watt transmit power (e.g. Ch.

13) or you are on a “receive only” channel (e.g. WX ).

Remedy:

Change to an unrestricted TX/RX channel.

Symptom:

The SCAN key does not start the scan function.

Probable Cause 1: No channels are in the scan memory.

Remedy 1:

Use the MEM key to enter desired channels into the scan memory.

Probable Cause 2: Squelch is not adjusted correctly.

Remedy 2:

Symptom:

Adjust the squelch to the point that background noise just disappears.

Radio just does not seem to be operating correctly.

Probable Cause:

Remedy:

The radio has become “confused” by an unusual pattern of key presses.

Turn off the radio. Hold down the 16/9/TRI key while turning the radio

on. This process will reset the radio to the original factory settings.

Symptom:

Radio will not power up.

The battery is exhausted.

Probable Cause:

Remedy:

Recharge the battery pack or use the BT200 alkaline battery tray with

fresh alkaline batteries.

Symptom:

You can hear transmissions, but the other radio cannot hear you.

The transmit power is set to low.

Probable Cause:

Remedy:

Use the H/L key to select a higher transmit power setting.

radio to transmit by pressing the

“PTT” switch.

Warning: Your West Marine VHF200

generates RF electromagnetic energy

when transmitting. This radio was

designed to meet the FCC’s rules and reg-

ulations for the maximum permissible

exposure to radio frequency energy. This

design was tested and found to be compli-

ant to the strict requirements established

by the FCC.

•

ALWAYS maintain at least a 1-inch

(2.5 cm) separation distance between

your body (including the face and

eyes) and any surface of the radio.

NEVER allow the antenna to touch

the human body or to come within 1

inch when the transmitter is active.

NEVER allow children to operate the

radio without adult supervision and

the knowledge of the following safe-

ty guidelines.

•

This radio was designed for and is classi-

fied as “Occupational Use Only”, mean-

ing it must be used only during the course

of employment by individuals aware of

the hazards, and the ways to minimize

such hazards. This radio is not intended

for use by the “General Population” in an

uncontrolled environment. It’s use is

restricted to work related operations only

where the radio operator must have the

knowledge to control his or her exposure

conditions for satisfying the higher expo-

sure limit allowed for Occupational

Users.

This radio is approved for use with the

specific belt-clip tested for body-worn

SAR compliance. Other belt clips or

body-worn accessories may not comply

and should be avoided.

Notice: This equipment has been tested

and found to comply with the limits for a

Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15

of the FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residen-

tial installation. This equipment generates,

uses and can radiate radio frequency ener-

gy and, if not installed and used in accor-

dance with the instructions, may cause

harmful interference to radio communica-

tions. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by

turning the equipment off and on, the user

is encouraged to try to correct the inter-

ference by one or more of the following

measures:

Caution: It is up to the user to properly

operate this transmitter to ensure safe

operation. Please adhere to the following

to ensure that your exposure to RF elec-

tromagnetic energy is within the FCC

allowable limits:

•

DO NOT operate the radio without a

proper antenna attached, as this may

damage the radio and may also cause

you to exceed FCC RF exposure lim-

its. A proper antenna is the antenna

supplied with this radio by the manu-

facturer or an antenna specifically

authorized by the manufacturer to use

with this radio.

•

DO NOT transmit for more than 50%

of the total radio use time.

— Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

Transmitting more than 50% of the

time can cause FCC RF exposure

compliance requirements to be

exceeded. The radio is transmitting

when the “TX indicator” is displayed

on the screen. You can cause the

— Connect the equipment into an outlet

on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

— Consult the dealer or an experienced

marine electronics technician for

help.

Mayday for Distress

Communications

Mayday calls are only for when your ves-

sel or crew face “grave and imminent

danger, and immediate help is required”.

Therefore, you should not transmit a

Mayday call unless you’re likely to lose a

life or your boat.

24. Emergency

Communications

One of the most important reasons to

have a VHF radio on board your boat is

so you can make distress calls to rescue

agencies like the US Coast Guard, State

Boating Authorities, County Sheriffs, and

towing organizations. There are three

acknowledged levels of severity when

making an emergency call, and it’s impor-

tant to know what to do if you should

have to make an emergency call, and

what to do if you hear one.

Procedure for making a Distress

Call:

Select Channel 16 and high transmit

power.

Transmit as follows:

An excellent source for information on

marine communications is Chapman

Piloting, Seamanship, and Small Boat

Handling. We recommend that you con-

sult Chapman’s for more information, and

also consult the web at one of the follow-

ing web sites:

1. “Mayday, Mayday, Mayday”.

2. “This is (Name of Vessel)”. Repeat

three times.

3. “(Your call sign or other indication of

the vessel)”. Repeat three times.

4. “Located at (your position)”. The

position can be in latitude and longi-

tude, or can be in reference to a

known object. Be specific. “Near a

Red buoy” or “South of the

Lighthouse” is too easy to misinter-

pret.

www.boatingsafety.com

www.boatsafe.com/nauticalknowhow/radi

o.htm

5. State “(The nature of the distress and

assistance required.)”. Examples: tak-

ing on water, medical emergency,

fire, dismasting, aground in surf.

6. State “(Any other information which

might facilitate the rescue)”.

Examples: # of adults and children on

board, other communications devices,

life raft on board, color of vessel,

size of vessel, # of injuries, type of

help or equipment needed.

After making a Mayday call, allow the

Coast Guard, other rescue agencies, or

other boaters to contact you. If you don’t

hear from anyone in a minute, repeat your

message.

Pan Pan for Urgency

Messages

Since Mayday calls are only for “grave

and imminent danger”, what should you

say if you’re aground, or lost, or running

low on fuel? Ordinary calls for assistance

can use the urgency signal “Pan Pan”

(pronounced pon pon).

Boat to Boat Calls

When calling another boater, here are

some tips to keep in mind:

1. Monitor Channel 16 for traffic before

you begin to transmit. This is espe-

cially important if there is an emer-

gency in your area, and Channel 16 is

being used for emergency communi-

cations.

Procedure for making an Urgency

Call:

Select Channel 16 and high transmit

power.

2. Keep your communication on

Channel 16 as brief as possible. It’s a

party line; only one boat in your area

can use it at a time.

Transmit as follows:

3. If Channel 16 is clear, say “Osprey”

(Name of other vessel), “this is

Mildew (name of your vessel).

Over.” First say their boat name, then

say your boat name.

1. “Pan-Pan, Pan-Pan, Pan-Pan”.

2. “This is (Name of Vessel)”.

3. “(Your call sign or other indication of

the vessel)”.

4. “Located at (your position)”. The

position can be in latitude and longi-

tude, or can be in reference to a

known object. Be specific. “Near a

Red buoy” or “South of the

Lighthouse” is too easy to misinter-

pret.

4. They should respond “Mildew, this is

Osprey. Switch to Channel 68. Over.”

5. You respond “This is Mildew, switch-

ing to Channel 68. Out.”

Both operators would then change to

Channel 68 (or one of the other ship to

ship channels like 9, 69, 71, 72, or 78)

and continue their conversation, assuming

the channel was free. When the conversa-

tion is complete, both boats would switch

back to monitoring Channel 16.

5. State “(The nature of the distress and

assistance required.)”. Examples:

aground, require medical assistance,

lost, out of fuel, engine problems.

Since these calls do not normally require

immediate response, it’s common to make

contact with a rescue agency or another

boat and shift to a working frequency like

Channel 6 (Intership Safety Channel) or

Channel 22 (Coast Guard Working

Channel).

You can also monitor a channel other than

Channel 16 for traffic related to fishing, a

boat regatta, or other event. Dual or Triple

Watch will be helpful, since they allow

you to hear hailing calls on Channel 16,

while listening to conversations that inter-

est you.
