Buoyant VHF Marine Transceiver with DSC
The IC-M93D EURO VHF/DSC handheld radio is the successor to the
popular IC-M91D. Stylish and slim, this new Icom handheld contains an abundance
of features including a dedicated built-in DSC receiver (meets ITU-R M.493-13
Class D DSC), internal GPS and active noise cancelling technology. In addition,
an intuitive interface coupled with 2.3 inch full dot matrix high-contrast
display and soft keypad makes this a comfortable and easy handportable to
operate.
2.3 inch Large High Visibility LCD
The large 2.3 inch (W×H: 35.5×47.0 mm), full dot-matrix (123×160
dots) displays all information clearly. The high contrast display is visible
even under direct sunlight.
Slimmest* Buoyant DSC Radio
The IC-M93D EURO has the slimmest* body for a floating VHF/DSC
marine handheld transceiver. Body depth has been reduced from 43.2mm (IC-M91D)
to 38.5mm (IC-M93DEURO) by implementing a flat sheet keypad. This feature
allows the radio to be firmly yet comfortably gripped in the palm of your hand.
* As of July 2016, researched by Icom Inc.
Meets ITU-R M.493-13 Class D DSC with a Dedicated DSC Receiver
for CH70
The IC-M93D EURO has a dedicated DSC receiver which continuously
monitors CH70 and is independent of the main receiver and other operation. The
distress button is located on the rear panel and protected against accidental
operation with a spring cover.
Intuitive User Interface
A flat sheet keypad not only makes the radio slim, but also
provides positive click action. Icom’s common Marine Family User Interface
provides consistent and intuitive operation. You can quickly access the
required function by using the radios’ soft keys. The most often-used 19
functions can be assigned at the bottom of the display and toggled with the
left and right keys.
Float’n Flash and MOB Auto Set Function
If the IC-M93D EURO falls into the water, the radio floats and
an emergency LED light is automatically activated, even when the unit is turned
OFF. In addition, the MOB auto set function automatically sets the nature of
distress to “Man Overboard” allowing for an immediate distress call to be made
by the operator (by pushing the Distress button). The position and time* of the
radio/person in the water is transmitted.
* If the GNSS position data has not been fixed when the Distress button is
pushed, another distress call will be automatically sent after the position
data is received.
Rapid Charger and Li-ion battery pack as standard
The IC-M93D EURO includes the BC-220 rapid charger which charges
the standard Li-ion battery pack in just 2.5 hours. The IC-M93D EURO allows 9
hours* of battery life while continuously monitoring CH70.
* Typical operation with Tx: Rx: standby = 5: 5: 90 (Power save: ON)
Active Noise Cancelling Technology
Active noise cancelling technology removes background noise from
both transmitted and received audio. This function makes communication clearer
in noisy maritime environments.
Integrated GNSS Receiver
The integrated GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System)
receiver provides your location, bearing and speed with fast-setup time and
pinpoint accuracy by using information from GPS, GLONASS, QZSS and SBAS
(WAAS/EGNOS/MSAS). Using GNSS memory data, the IC-M93D EURO can fix positioning
within 8–12 seconds after the radio is powered ON. Acquired position
information can be used for DSC calls and navigation to waypoints.
