VHF,BLACKBOXW/WHITECOMMANDMICIV

The Icom IC-M400BB-SW VHF Marine Blackbox Transceiver (White) includes a black box main body and a CommandMic IV™ remote control microphone. This two-component radio can be installed behind a wall or console, leaving a small or hidden footprint, and completely controlled remotely. It offers robust functionality, including Class D DSC and the CommandMic IV™ intuitive soft-key interface. Active noise canceling, a 10 Watt loudspeaker, and Public Address are built-in for optimal audio performance. It features a space-saving, two-piece configuration, with all function control (including DSC operation) managed from the COMMANDMICIV™, HM-195B/SW. The new menu system, shared with Icom’s latest models, displays software key functions on the bottom line of the dot-matrix display, toggled with left and right buttons. The built-in bidirectional active noise canceling reduces background noise by up to 90% and improves both transmitted voice and incoming calls. The built-in 10 Watt amplifier increases audio output from an additional external speaker, and the public address function allows announcements from the microphone, with a foghorn also emitted from the external speaker. The built-in DSC watch function monitors Ch. 70 (DSC channel) activity even while receiving another channel. DSC functions include distress, individual, group, all ships, urgency, safety, position request/report, polling request, and DSC test calls. When connected to an external GPS receiver, current position and time are shown on the COMMANDMIC™ display, and DSC information can be transferred to a navigational device via NMEA 0183 connectivity. When connected to the optional MA-500TR Class B AIS transponder, the AIS target call function allows individual DSC calls from the MA-500TR. Other features include MarineCommander™ compatibility, AquaQuake™ water draining function, IPX7 submersible protection (1m depth for 30 minutes) for both IC-M400BB and HM-195SW, dual/tri-watch function for monitoring Ch.16 and/or call channel, and priority and normal scan.
