Safety and convenience, the DCSE-20
provides both. Capable of producing all of the signals required during
periods of restricted visibility it can be used to sound the maneuvering
signals as well*. We hope you never have to use some of
the supported signals but they are available if you should ever need them,
and the label provides a handy reference to what they all mean. Use of the DCSE-20 to make the
maneuvering signals will insure that you meet the time requirements specified
by the Rules. The DCSE-20 can control the most
powerful boat horns without interfering with the operation of your existing
horn buttons in any way. The DCSE-20 supports two control
locations, for upper and lower helm stations. With the purchase and installation of
the optional bell striking kit the unit will also sound your bell. If your
boat is equipped with a bell please call for details about the bell striking
kit. If the situation warrants, a quick
CCW twist will sound the Doubt or Danger signal, leaving both hands free to
maneuver out of harms way. If you need to make the doubt/danger signal again
just move the knob to another position in the doubt or danger area. The top quality vinyl dash plaque
will conform to curved surfaces, increasing potential mounting locations. Installing the DCSE-20 is straight
forward and easy. *Notice that the off position is
bracketed by Engines Astern, three shorts, and Under Way Making Way, one
prolonged. This facilitates using the DCSE-20 for sounding the maneuvering
signals. If you want to make one prolonged, the coming out signal for example,
just turn the knob one position clockwise, wait for the horn to stop, and
back to off, thus insuring you have met the 4-6 second requirement of the
rules. In the same manner using the Engines Astern to sound one or two short
blasts ensures you fulfill the one second requirement for these signals. MSRP $159.95 including one control
encoder, knob, 6ft cable and dash plaque. Also includes USPS Priority Mail
delivery. Additional control encoder, knob and
plaque, $19.95 50ft modular cable $14.95. We can also fabricate cables of any
length. Call for details. |
