SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not open the equipment.
Only qualified personnel should work inside the equipment.
Do not disassemble or modify the equipment.
Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result.
Immediately turn off the power at the switchboard if the equipment is emitting smoke or fire.
Continued use of the equipment can cause fire or electrical shock. Contact a FURUNO agent for service.
Keep heater away from equipment.
WARNING
Radio Frequency Radiation Hazard
The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy which can be harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance while the radar is in operation or expose yourself to the trans­mitting antenna at a close distance.
Distances at which RF radiation levels of 100 and 10 W/m table below.
Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a close distance in front of the wheel house, your administration may require halt of transmission within a certain sector of antenna revolution. This is possible - Ask your FURUNO representative or dealer to provide this feature.

exist are given in the
A heater can melt the equipment's power cord, which can cause fire or electrical shock.
Use the proper fuse.
Fuse rating is shown on the equipment. Use of a wrong fuse can result in damage to the equipment.
CAUTION
A warning label is attached to the equip­ment. Do not remove the label. If the label is missing or damaged, contact a FURUNO agent or dealer about replacement.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, do not remove cover. No user-serviceable parts inside.

FOREWORD

Features

The MODEL1722/1722C/1723C series work within our new product-network system called the “NavNet.” Each product has an IP address to communicate with NavNet compatible products within the network, using TCP/IP protocol through an Ethernet 10 Base-T network.
The main features are
! Bright 7” screen visible even under direct sunlight.
MODEL1722 series: Monochrome LCD MODEL1722C series: Color LCD MODEL1723C series: High-precision color LCD
! User friendly operat ion with combination of discrete keys, soft keys and cursor pad. ! Accepts FURUNO and Nav-charts™ (NAVIONICS) or C-MAP NT/NT+ charts (C-MAP).
All names mentioned are registered trademarks of their respective companies.
! Fast chart redraw. ! Built-in NavNet interf ace circuit board. ! 12-channel GPS Receiver G P -310B with highly accurate position fixing optionall y
available or GP-320B with WAAS (see the note in below.)
! User programmable f unction keys. ! Video sounder picture available with conn ection to optional network sounder. ! ARP function (when connecting with MODEL1833/1833C series)
ix

SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS

All NavNet products incorporate a “network circuit board” to int egrate each NavNet product on board through an optional LA N cable (Ethernet 10BASE-T). Each NavNet product is assigned an IP address to enable transfer of images between other NavNet products. For example, video plot ter pictures can be transferred to a radar and vice versa. Pictures received via the NavNet may be adjusted at the receiving end.
The number of display units which may be installed depends on the number of network sounder connected. For a system incorporating three or more products, a “hub” is required to process data.
For one network sounder: one radar and three plotters For two network sounder: one radar and two plott ers

WHAT IS WAAS?

WAAS, available in North America, is a provider in the worldwide SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) navigation system. SBAS provides GPS signal corrections to SBAS users, for even better position accuracy, typically better than three meters. Two more SBAS providers are also currently under development, MSAS (Multi-Functional Satellite Augment at ion System) for Japan and EGNOS (Eur o Geostationary Navigation Overl ay Service) for E urope. A ll provides w ill be compat ible with one another, thus provi ding “seamless” positi on fixes to SBAS users.

1.1 Operating Controls

1.1.1 Display unit controls
Overview of display un it controls
The radar systems are mainly operated with controls of the display unit (and remote controller). Ten keys are labeled and they provide the function shown on their labels. The five soft keys provide various functions according to current operating mode. The [ENTER] knob mainly functions to register selections on the menu and enter alphanumeric data. The cursor pad’s main function is to move the cursor across the screen. Whenever you operate a key, a single beep confirms operation. Invalid operation causes the unit to emit three beeps.
Selects display mode.
Momentary press:

1.2 Inserting a Chart Card

Your unit reads FURUNO and Nav-Charts (NAVIONICS), or C-MAP chart cards, depending on its specifications. Insert the appropriate chart card for your area as follows:
1. Open the chart card slot lid.
Chart slot
Display unit
2. Insert desired chart card groove side up.
3. Close the lid to protect the chart drive.
Note 1: Do not insert or remove the chart card while turning power on. This may
cause the equipment to freeze.
Note 2: Do not remove a card while the chart is being drawn. This may cause
the equipment to freeze.
Note 3: A card remover is supplied to ease removal of chart cards. Attach the
card remover to the right-hand side hole on the card and pull to remove card. You can leave the card remover attached to the card while the card is in the card slot - push the card remover leftward until it contacts the recessed area in the card.
Note 4: For multiple display units, do not use the same chart card type in more
than one display unit.

1.3 Turning the Unit On/Off

Press the [POWER/BRILL] key to turn the unit on. A beep sounds and the equipment proceeds in the sequence shown below, displaying the product information screen, startup test results and the chart usage disclaimer, in that order. The startup test checks the ROM, RAM, internal battery and backup data for proper operation, displaying the results for each as OK or NG (No Good). If NG appears, an appropriate message appears on the screen. For any NG, try to press any key to go to the chart disclaimer screen, then perform the diagnostic test referring to the paragraph “7.5 Diagnostics.”

The magnetron in the antenna unit takes about one minutes and thirty seconds to warm up before the radar can be operated. The time remaining for warm up of the magnetron appears at the center of the display, counting down from 1:30 to 0:01. You may press any key at the chart disclaimer screen to show the last-used display, or wait several seconds to let the equipment do it for you.
To turn the unit off, press and hold down the [POWER/BRILL] key until the screen goes dark (approx. 3 sec.). To protect the LCD attach the hard cover. Note that the network sounder will be turned off approx. three minutes after turning off the power.
Note: You are asked if you want to start the simulation mode, which provides
simulated operation of the equipment, the first time you turn on the power (or any time power is applied after a memory reset) the message shown below is displayed. Push the [ENTER] knob to start the simulation mode, or press the [CLEAR] key to start normal operation. For further details about the simulation mode, see the paragraph “1.9 Simulation Display.”
