Furuno NX-300 User Manual
The NX-300 receives NAVTEX (Navigational Telex)
messages and verifies the ID of received messages. It
features two narrowband receivers, one tuned to the
518 kHz international Navtex frequency and the other to
the 490 kHz domestic or local country frequency.
Selection is made by a Frequency Select switch on the
front panel.
NAVTEX is a worldwide coastal English language telex
broadcast system. The broadcast stations transmit
Navigational Warnings, Meteorological Warnings,
Search and Rescue (SAR) information and other data
for ships sailing within their service range. The service
range is 200-400 nautical miles depending on the terrain
and station transmit power; messages are broadcasted
every 4 hours. The Navtex service on 490 kHz is available
in the UK, France, etc. using their own language. The NX300 features multi-language processing.
Every incoming message is identified and new messages
are read on the high-contrast 4.5" LCD display; no paper is
required. However, the message can be printed out via a
PC interface. The broadcast station can be selected
automatically according to own ship position when the
NX-300 is connected with a GPS/DGPS navigator
outputting position in NMEA 0183 format.
The NX-300 consists of a compact, waterproof display and
an antenna unit. The waterproof display unit can be installed
in the flybridge or at any convenient place on the vessel.
