NBDP TRANSMITTING, RECEIVING 10.9 Preparing Macrofiles for Automatic Telex 10.9.1 Automatic telex overview This section shows you how to communicate with a coast station which handles automatic telex transmission, using macrofiles. You will also need to register communication channels and stations, and prepare macrofiles. Coast stations using automatic telex are MCI Marine Services (North America), Sydney Radio (Australia), Lyngby Radio (Denmark), and others. The procedure is mostly common to all coast stations, however refer to the coast station’s traffic manual for details. INTERNATIONAL TELEX NETWORK SHIP STORE-ANDFORWARD DIRECT DIALING CENTRAL SYSTEM MULTIADDRESS SUB-STATION SYSTEM CONTROL Sample automatic telex network The service available in automatic telex are • Message transfer between ship and coast station (store-and-forward) • Connection with landline telex (direct dialing) • Multi address 10.9.2 Preparations To use automatic telex, you need to register three items: • Answerback code • Scan groups • Station names Registering answerback code The coast station assigns a Telex number. This number functions as an answerback code. An answerback code contains the following: OOOOO SHIP X OOOOO: Coast station-assigned five-digit telex code SHIP: Ship name X: For shipboard station, normally X is entered The procedure for registering the answerback code is the same as which appears on page 8-1. If an answerback code was registered before the commissioning of the coast station, a 10-10 10. NBDP TRANSMITTING, RECEIVING new answerback code must be entered. To enter a new answerback code, contact FURUNO or an authorized FURUNO agent or dealer. Registering scan groups The central system emits a free-signal to indicate a coast station radio channel is in idle condition and available for ship-to-shore calls. The free-signal is detected and recognized by the shipboard equipment as a permission to start the transmission. Then, the shipboard operator initiates a call. You can scan search for the free-signal automatically by registering coast station radio channels in scan group(s). The procedure for registering scan groups for coast station use is the same as that which appears on page 8-7. Registering stations The next step is to enter station name. The procedure is the same as that shown on page 8-3. 10.9.3 Commands The following tables describe the commands for macro operation. Command (Prefixed with @) Parameter A: file name Calling station name and ID on assigned parameter Free-signal searching time according to assigned parameter (default setting: 10 min) Detect free signal of dot pattern Calling according to assigned parameter (default setting: 10 min) For receiving a message (designated by parameter) transmitted by coast station Time allotted for reception of message by CASE command Text transmitted according to assigned parameters Send a file from floppy disk None Function keys F7 - F10 Text Text of message appears Waiting for keyboard input Transmit keyboard input message CALL S: Station Name FREE (support command for CALL) Two digits, 0-99 min $RRR$ signal RETRY (support command for CALL) Two digits, 0-99 min CASE Text TIMEOUT (support command for CALL) Two digits, 0-99 min SEND WRU HR OVER BREAK DISPLAY INPUT Content Text None 10-11 10.
