Features

NAVTEX (Navigational Telex) is a worldwide coastal telex broadcasting system. Coastal NAVTEX broadcasting stations with specific ID's transmit Navigational warnings, Meteorological warnings, Search and Rescue (SAR) information and other navigational information for NAVTEX receiver-equipped vessels sailing in coastal waters.
The FURUNO NX-300 NAVTEX receiver receives NAVTEX messages and automatically displays them together with station ID and message category information.
The service range of a NAVTEX station is typically 200-400 nautical miles. A NAVTEX station normally broadcasts every 4 hours.
The NAVTEX message is relevant for all types and sizes of vessels. The NX-300 is shipped from the factory equipped to receive 7 specific types of NAVTEX messages from all NAVTEX stations. However unnecessary stations can be rejected or necessary stations can be added by the "manual station selection" facility.
If ship's position data is fed from navigation equipment, the NX-300 automatically decides in which NAVAREA the vessel is navigating, and selects stations. (NAVAREAs are geographical zones defined by the International Maritime Organization.)
Unattended operation once required data is entered.
Received data is not saved nor displayed when the error rate exceeds the percentage you set
(max 39%).
No paper required
Designed for small boats and fishing vessels
Compact, stylish display and antenna units
Memory of up to 28,000 characters for last 72 hours
Navigation data can be fed through external input (connection with navigation aid required).
Bright 95 x 60 mm LCD with adjustable contrast and brilliance
Memory backup with a long-life lithium battery
Low power consumption

1. PRINCIPLE OF NAVTEX SYSTEM

1.1 How NAVTEX Works

There are many types of navigational and meteorological information available on radio, such as NAVAREA, HYDROPAC, etc. However, these systems rely heavily upon the operator's experience and skill in tuning the radio and interpreting messages. In addition, constant monitoring to pick up wanted information among a vast volume of messages is not practical with a limited radio staff.
To provide all mariners with up-to-the-minute information automatically, the NAVTEX system was developed.
NAVTEX is an acronym meaning Navigational Telex, and as its name shows, it is a kind of narrow band radio teletype system for sending (by frequency shift keying) text messages expressed in a 7-unit code. The difference is that a NAVTEX transmitter transmits nine control characters (header code) ahead of the main message, so that the receiver can identify the station, message type and serial number automatically.

1.2 NAVTEX System Operation

For navigation purposes, the world is divided into 16 areas (called Navareas) as shown in the figure below. Each Navarea has multiple NAVTEX stations and each NAVTEX station has an identification code, from "A" to "Z." The frequency assigned to NAVTEX is only one (518 kHz), and many stations exist in the same Navarea. (Some stations use 490 kHz also.)
Figure 1-1 NAVTEX area
If the stations were to transmit without any rule, the system would collapse due to mutual interference. To avoid this problem, the following rules apply.
The transmission schedule is determined so that two or more stations having a common
service area may not overlap in time.
Each station transmits with minimum required power to cover its service area (200 nautical
miles nominal).
1-1

1.3 Message Format

For automatic identification of messages, each message starts with eight control characters, called "Header codes".
The first four characters are always "ZCZC" and common to all messages. This part is used for message synchronization. The latter four characters are designated as b1, b2, b3 and b4 to indicate origin, category and serial number of the message.
Character b1 is the identification letter of the NAVTEX station; "A" to "Z". Character b2 indicates the type of message, "A" to "Z", as listed below. Character b3 and b4 indicate the serial number of the message. The serial numbers are counted up from "01" to "99", and start from "01" again. Number "00" is specially reserved for important emergency messages, such as a search and rescue (SAR) message.
The end of each message is indicated by "NNNN" (four successive N's). General message format is summarized below.

6. INSTALLATION

6.1 Installation of Display Unit

Mounting considerations
The display unit can be installed on a tabletop, on the overhead, or in a panel (optional flush mounting kit required). Refer to the outline drawings at the end of this manual for installation instructions. When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:
Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.
The unit is waterproof thus it can be installed outdoors. Howev er, locate it of direct sunlight, (or
in a suitable, ventilated enclosure) to prevent heat which can build up inside the cabinet. The mounting location should be well ventilated.
Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.
Allow sufficient maintenance space at the sides and rear of the unit and leave sufficient slack
in cables, to facilitate maintenance and servicing. Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass;
Standard compass, 0.5 m, Steering compass, 0.3 m. After you install this equipment, perform All Clear as in paragraph 4.3 on page 4-1.
Tabletop overhead mounting

6.2 Installation of Antenna Unit

Mounting considerations
Install the antenna unit referring to the antenna installation diagram at the end of this manual. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna unit, keep in mind the following points:
Do not shorten the antenna cable (10 m cable fitted to the antenna).
The length of the whip antenna for the NX-3E should be no longer than 1.2 m and no larger
than 5 mm in diameter to prevent antenna damage. Do not use a 2.5 m whip antenna. Use spring washer (supplied) for whip antenna.
Do not install the antenna unit within beamwidth of the radar.
If the antenna cable is to be passed through a hole which is not large enough to pass the
connector, you may unfasten the connector with a needle nose pliers and 3/8-inch open-end wrench. Refasten it as shown in Figure 6-2, after running the cable through the hole.
If you install the antenna unit except the NX-3E and the NX-3H, contact your dealer.

Grounding
The ground wire (local supply) should be 1.25 sq or larger for Navtex Receiver. The ground
wire should be as short as possible.
The signal ground and frame ground are separated, however the power line is not isolated.
Therefore, if connecting other equipment which has signal ground connected to frame ground, the earth lamp will light. Especially, for positive ground battery separate the frame ground of the external equipment from the earth. If not, the equipment may be damaged.
External equipment
The power supply port is commonly used for connection of external equipment such as navigation equipment or a PC. Refer to the interconnection diagram on page S-1 for connection.

6.4 Interfacing

This equipment can receive navigation data in RS-232C format. For example, it can receive position data from GPS navigator GP-31/GP-36 for display on its screen. If you want to connect equipment which outputs data in a format other than RS-232C, a level converter is required for interface. Consult FURUNO dealer for details.
