SMC action — Instructing SRU to resume

When an SMC has instructed an SRU to divert and the SRU has initiated the divert, the SMC can also instruct the SRU of a specific point where they should resume the search from.

Note

When a SAR pattern is broadcast it is duplicated. To access the broadcasted SAR pattern’s context menu options, instead of the options for the original SAR pattern, you may need to hide the original SAR pattern. For details refer to: Hiding original SAR pattern

Note

An SMC can only specify a resume point once the SRU has initiated the divert.

  1. Select the SAR pattern onscreen to open the context menu and then select Instruct SRU to Resume from the pop-over options.
    The Instruct SRU to Resume option can also be selected from:
    • The SRU BlueForce target icon’s context menu.

    • The SMC searches list pop-over options (If the SMC searches list is accessed from the Homescreen rather than from the Chart app menu you can only select a waypoint from the waypoint list or enter the lat/long coordinates for the divert point).

    • The message’s pop-over options from the messages inbox.

  2. Choose a point along the search route or a waypoint ahead of the divert location and then select Resume from here from the context menu.
  3. Select Send now.
