FOREWORD

A Word to the Owner of the FAX-30
FURUNO Electric Company thanks you for purchasing the FURUNO FAX-30 Facsimile Receiver. We are confident you will discover why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability.
Since 1948, FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for quality and reliability throughout the world. This dedication to excellence is furthered by our extensive global network of agents and dealers.
Your equipment is designed and constructed to meet the rigorous demands of the marine environment. However, no machine can perform its intended function unless properly installed and maintained. Please carefully read and follow the operation, installation and maintenance procedures set forth in this manual.
We would appreciate feedback from you, the end-user, about whether we are achieving our purposes.
Thank you for considering and purchasing FURUNO.
Features
Connected to a NavNet series display unit (MODEL 1833C/1943C, MFDBB, MFD8/MFD12) or a PC, the FAX-30 receives facsimile images and navtex messages, transmitted from facsimile and navtex stations.
Programmed with all existing facsimile stations and frequencies. User may program 320
channels.
Fully automatic facsimile operation with built-in schedule timer. Storage for 30 timer
programs.
Fully automatic selection of speed, IOC, phase alignment and frequency. Manual
selection also available.
Connection to printer via a PC to print facsimile images and navtex messages.
Facsimile images in monochrome, gray scale (8 tones) or color (three patterns).
Built in navtex receiver. (The receiver does not conform to GMDSS regulations.)
vii
Operational Characteristics
General
The equipment receives one facsimile image or naxtex message at a time. Thus, a
navtex message cannot be received when a facsimile image is being received and vice versa, regardless of navtex message category.
Three receiving modes are available, facsimile, navtex, and facsimile(timer) & navtex.
When using the facsimile(timer) and navtex, the order of priority is
Facsimile(timer) (highest priority) Navtex (lowest priority)
The FAX-30 does not have an internal clock, so time is input from a NavNet display or the
PC. (For a PC-only configuration, time data is read when the browser accesses the FAX-30. Therefore, turn on the FAX-30 before accessing it from the PC to allow for input of time data, which is necessary for facsimile timer recording.) To receive time data, do the following:
NavNet: Output the date and time data sentence ZDA through the NavNet network. PC: Set the PC’s clock to the correct time.
If both a NavNet series unit and a PC are used, it is recommended to operate the FAX-30
from the PC because of the two different communication protocols. (Use the NavNet series unit to feed navigation data to the PC.)
Navigation data must be fed through the network to use the automatic navtex mode.
Therefore, this mode is not available in the PC-only configuration.
NavNet
The FAX-30 cannot be accessed from the NavNet for 15 seconds after the FAX-30 has
been turned on.
NavNet requirements:
Navionics: Ver. 15, Boot Ver. 2 (1950006002) C-MAP by Jeppesen: Ver. 11, Boot Ver. 2 (1950006002)
NavNet 3D
The FAX-30 cannot be accessed when it is starting up, because image data is being loaded. You can access the FAX-30 when the LED flashes 0.4 seconds every 2 seconds, which starts approximately two minutes after the power is turned on.
PC
The FAX-30 cannot be accessed from the PC while the FAX-30 is loading data at start up.
Wait until the POWER LED flashing interval changes from 0.4 to two seconds before accessing the FAX-30.
Most operating procedures in this manual are written for use with the Internet Explorer®.
Menu items, control button names, etc. may be different on the Netscape Navigator.

*1 A facsimile image may not be updated after it has been processed (noise limiter,
zoom, etc.). To update the image, click the right button on the mouse while holding down the [SHIFT] key and then choose Reload.
*2 Connection is occasionally interrupted. In case of 4.78 + Win 98, the message “A
network error occurred: unable to connect to server (TCP Error: Not enough memory). The server may be down or unreachable. Try connecting again later.” is displayed. To restore the connection, press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Delete] to force quit Netscape. Then, reopen Netscape and try to connect again.
*3 Connection is frequently interrupted and cannot be restored.
# Not verified.
Use of older OS with recent browser will result in extremely slow operation.
If the browser goes into timeout while an image is being received, access to the FAX-30
may be interrupted. In this case, click the right button on the mouse and click Refresh.
Most PC operations are done with the left button on the mouse. The exception is saving a
facsimile image that is done with the right button.
The FAX-30 cannot be simultaneously accessed by multiple PCs. For this reason, be
sure to use the logout feature to logout a PC from the FAX-30 when its use is not required.
If the FAX-30 appears to be abnormal, the browser version may not be compatible or
browser settings may be wrong. See the browser requirements on the previous page, the browser and OS compatibility table above and the browser settings in paragraph 7.5.1.
The HTTP and HTML versions of the FAX-30 are as shown below.

1.1.2 Preparations for using the FAX-30
The NavNet series display unit must output the date and time data sentence ZDA through the network in order to use the facsimile timer recording feature. Further, automatic navtex requires the geographical position data sentence GGA (GPS position fix data) or GLL (geographic position, latitude/longitude). Output appropriate data sentences from the NavNet display unit to the FAX-30 as follows:
1. Turn on the NavNet display unit. From the radar, plotter or echo sounder display, press the [MENU] key.
2. Press the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION soft key.
3. Press the SYSTEM SETUP soft key.
4. Press the PORT SETUP soft key.
5. Press the OUTPUT THROUGH NETWORK soft key.

1.1.3 Accessing the FAX mode
1. Turn on the FAX-30 at the ship’s mains switchboard. The FAX-30 proceeds in the following sequence:
a) The FAX-30 starts initial set up, which takes about 15 seconds.
b) The FAX-30 transfers (loads) data from the ROM to the RAM. At this time the
LED flashes every 0.4 seconds.
c) After all data has been loaded, which takes about two minutes, the LED
flashes every two seconds, indicating the FAX-30 is ready for operation.
