Introduction
2.1.1 Overview
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver receives Navtex messages on the international Navtex
frequencies 490 kHz, 518 kHz and 4,209.5 kHz. It can hold 2000 messages per frequency.
Messages are not affected by a power cycle. If not tagged to avoid deletion, messages are
cleared from the message log after 66
messages from and which message types you want to receive. The unit has an alarm relay
which is only activated if a message of category D is received (i.e. SAR, Mayday relay, Pirate
attack etc.). The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver is always on when powered. With its LAN
interface the transponder and the display can be separated, giving access to the Navtex
information available where it is needed.

hours. You can customise which stations to receive
Figure 2-1: SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver is delivered as a black box receiver which can either be
connected to the SAILOR 6004 Control Panel, a 7" touch screen, or used as a standalone
unit for integration with an INS, supporting NMEA0183. A printer can be connected to the
receiver.
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver is approved according to GMDSS (EU Marine Equipment
Directive).

2.3.1 Use with the SAILOR 6004 Control panel
The SAILOR 6004 Control panel is the user interface for the SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver.
The user interface is in English. All settings that are relevant for the user are accessed
through the touch panel. Alarms and notifications are shown in the display and via NMEA.
The SAILOR 6004 Control panel has a buzzer for alarm tones and the display supports night
mode. The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver has a Navtex application which is loaded into the
SAILOR 6004 Control Panel during installation.

Installation
Leave the lid of the SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver off until all connections to the springloaded terminals are made and initial testing is passed successfully.
3.2.3 Navtex antenna
You can fit a suitable active or passive antenna for Navtex reception. Cobham recommends
to use an active antenna suitable for tri-band Navtex reception if the environment allows it.
Suitable antennas are:
• Navcom NA 3S
• Procom NTA 3E-SHT
• Sirius A159
or similar.

The device requires ON IN to be connected to VBAT- in order to power up.
This can be done by a dedicated switch, permanent wiring or connection
to a Cobham device supporting ON OUT (e.g. SAILOR 6004 Control Panel).
Placing the Navtex antenna
Place the Navtex receiver antenna, passive or active, as high as possible, unobstructed from
large objects. Do not place the antenna close to a transmitting MF/HF antenna, as this will
impair receiver performance.

connect NMEA OUT (to INS) and NMEA IN (from INS).
4. Use the integrated cable relief to secure the cables with the provided cable ties.
5. Fasten the lid on the SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver with 4 screws (included in the
delivery).
Navtex printer interface
The optional Navtex printer interface requires a printer attached to a LAN network. Two
setups are supported:
1. Using a Control Panel as LPR print server (requires attaching a USB printer)
2. Using a third party LPR print server (requires IP address, port and queue name of that
server)
3.2.5 Ethernet interfaces
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver has two Ethernet connectors (RJ45). The Ethernet
connectors are identical, you can use any of the connectors to connect the SAILOR 6390
Navtex Receiver to the SAILOR 6004 Control Panel.
Installation
The Ethernet interface is also used for communication with the Service Interface (opens in
a web browser). For more information see Configuration with the Service Interface on
page 4-4.
LAN connector and cable
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver has two identical LAN connectors. Use one for
connecting the SAILOR 6004 Control Panel. The two connectors are of the type RJ45 with 8
leads
Important
98-139768-A Chapter 3: Installation 3-5
For GMDSS installations: Only connect units that are part of the GMDSS
LAN system. For safety and compliance reasons, the Ethernet interface is
restricted to internal communication in an isolated system.
