What distress signal was the titanic fist to use?
The first thing Titanic did to signal other ships was to use a Morse lamp (a light that would be turned on and off to send messages to other ships who were close by) They used this to try to contact a nearby ship the crew could see (the S.S California) When the ship did not respond Titanic fired white rockets into the sky. While doing this they sent out wireless messages saying CQD (all stations distress) and their position. (The position that they said was actually wrong but they quickly realized this and sent out their revised position.

Did the titanic rescue ships see any icebergs?
Yes. Arthur Rostron, the captain of the Carpathia, was well aware that he was headed into an ice field. He nonetheless sent every ounce of steam to the engines (shutting off the heat and other less critical utilities) in order to reach greater than full speed in order to come to the Titanic's rescue. They were about 58 miles away when the Titanic first sent out a distress signal, so speed became very important. The level of danger was exactly the same as what Titanic had faced, so Rostron prepared for this by having every crew member on the deck and on the lookout for icebergs, as well as the Titanic's lifeboats.
