<strong>TT</strong>-<strong>3000E</strong> <strong>mini</strong>-C <strong>GMDSS</strong> <strong>User</strong> <strong>Manual</strong><br />

Other urgency or safety information (similar to VHF ‘PAN-<br />

PAN’ and ‘SECURITÉ’ calls) should be sent <strong>as</strong> ordinary<br />

messages and the primary recommendation is to use<br />

‘Special Access Code’ addressing. There is a list of standard<br />

codes for these purposes:<br />

• 32 : Medical advice.<br />

• 38 : Medical <strong>as</strong>sistance.<br />

• 39 : Maritime <strong>as</strong>sistance.<br />

• 41 : Meteorological reports.<br />

• 42 : Navigational hazards and warnings.<br />

• 43 : Ship position report<br />

Sending a message to one of these Special Access Codes on<br />

a LES will ensure that it is automatically forwarded to the<br />

relevant <strong>as</strong>sistance centre. However there is a catch: These<br />

addressing forms are not mandatory requirements for a LES<br />

so there may exist LESs that do not support them.<br />

Ple<strong>as</strong>e contact your preferred LES for more information on<br />

applicable Special Access Codes.<br />
