1 OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW 1-81.10 Power Supply Unit (option) The control unit works directly on 24 VDC or through a Power Supply Unit on AC mains supply (115 or 230 VAC). The power supply unit is type PR-300, supplying 24 VDC power (20 A) to the FS-1570 or type PR-850A, supplying 24 VDC (40 A) to the FS-2570. Both 115/230 VAC and 24 VDC power can be connected simultaneously. In this case, the system normally operates on the AC mains supply and when AC power is lost, the PSU automatically switches to the DC power source. This power supply arrangement satisfies the GMDSS requirements. The FS-1570/FS-2570 can be operated directly from 24 VDC without a power supply. OVEN power supply: The crystal oven is always powered even when the Power Switch is OFF, provided the mains switchboard is turned on. AC and DC power switches Both AC and DC power switches on the PSU can be always kept on. (These switches are provided to turn off the power supply for maintenance.)

Entering frequency with the numeric keys: Use the numeric keys to enter frequency and then push the [ENTER] knob. Be sure to including trailing zero. For example, to enter 2161 kHz, key in [2], [1], [6], [1], [0]. (Keying in 2-1-6-1 will set 216.1 kHz.) Choosing frequency with the ENTER knob (for RX only): a) Use the [FILE/CURSOR] key to choose digit to change. b) Rotate the [ENTER] knob to set digit. c) Push the [ENTER] knob. Note: To enter same frequency for both TX and RX, enter the TX frequency first. 2.1.3 Tuning Maximum transmission power is achieved only when the antenna impedance and transmitter impedance match each other. Because the antenna impedance changes with frequency, a means must be provided to match (tune) the antenna impedance with the transmitter impedance. This is done with the antenna coupler. The antenna coupler automatically tunes the transmitter to a wide range of different antenna lengths, from 7 to 30 m. To initiate the automatic tuning, do the following: 1. Press the PTT switch on the handset or the [LOG/TUNE] key on the control unit. “TUNING” appears when the [LOG/TUNE] key is pressed; “TX” pops out when the PTT switch is pressed. Tuning will be completed within 2 to 5 s for a newly selected frequency, or less than 0.5 s for a once-tuned frequency. (A memory saves coil and capacitor settings.) When the tuning process is successfully completed, TUNE: OK appears. If tuning fails, TUNE: NG appears.

2 SSB RADIOTELEPHONE 2-4Note: When tuning is initiated in the two-control unit system, the display of the idle control unit shows “OCCUPIED(ANOTHER CONTROLLER).” In this case, only the DISTRESS button is operative on the idle control unit. Further, if a control unit is in use when tuning is attempted at the other control unit, the display of the control unit which attempted to tune shows “OCCUPIED” plus the name of the equipment in use: ANOTHER CONTROLLER, NBDP, or DMC. 2.1.4 Using the handset Hold the handset close to your mouth, press the PTT switch and speak clearly. 2.1.5 Monitoring transceiver output power During transmission, the IA bar deflects according to the current being fed to the antenna feeder from the antenna coupler. The unit of readout is amperes. The antenna current varies with the effective antenna impedance. The swing differs by the frequency and antenna length. The output power is proportional to the square of an antenna current. Note: If IA is not shown, follow the procedure in paragraph 2.1.7 to show it.

3-13 DSC OVERVIEW 3.1 What is DSC? DSC is an acronym meaning Digital Selective Calling. It is a digital distress and general calling system in the MF and HF bands used by ships for transmitting distress alerts and general calls and by coast stations for transmitting the associated acknowledgements. For DSC distress and safety calling in the MF and HF bands, the frequencies are (kHz) 2187.5, 4207.5, 6312.0, 8414.5, 12577.0, and 16804.5. The DSC station sends and receives DSC general and safety calls via the radiotelephone.

Coast station ID begins with 00; Group ID begins with 0. • Priority Distress: Grave and imminent danger and request immediate assistance. Safety: A station is about to transmit a call containing an important navigational or meteorological warning. Urgency: A calling station has a very urgent call to transmit concerning safety of ship, aircraft or other vehicle or safety of person. Business: Communication related to the navigation, movements and needs of ships and aircraft. Routine: General calling • Communication type Telephone: Telephone (J3E) by SSB radiotelephone NBDP-ARQ: Telex (J2B) mode ARQ via NBDP Terminal Unit NBDP-FEC: Telex (J2B) mode FEC via NBDP Terminal Unit • Communication frequency Working frequency used to call by telephone or NBDP. The sending station may have the receiving frequency (ship or coast station) assign the frequency to use. • Position Position can be automatically or manually sent. • DSC frequency DSC frequency to use. If the call category is SAFETY, URGENCY or DISTRESS, choose a DSC distress frequency. • End code The end of a DSC call is denoted by ACK RQ (Acknowledge Request), ACK BQ (Acknowledge Back) or EOS (End of Sequence).

3 DSC OVERVIEW 3-33.2.1 Distress alert call and reply This type of call is sent by own ship in the event of distress, by using the [DISTRESS] button as follows: 1. The LED in the [DISTRESS] button initially flashes, and lights when the button is pressed more than three seconds. (If the button is pressed less than three seconds, the distress alert is not sent. Once the alert is sent it cannot be cancelled.) NOTICEIN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL TRANS-MISSION OF THE DISTRESS ALERTIf the distress is accidentally transmitted,contact the nearest coast station and informthem of the accidental transmission asfollows:a) Ship's nameb) Ship's call sign and DSC numberc) Position at time of transmissiond) Time of transmission 2. The radiotelephone automatically sets the DSC distress frequency and then the equipment transmits the distress alert. 3. After the distress alert is transmitted (this takes about 40 seconds), the equipment waits for the distress acknowledgement call (DIST ACK) from a coast station. This usually takes less than three minutes. (If it is not received within 4.5 minutes, the distress alert is re-transmitted.) 4. The radiotelephone automatically sets the distress communication frequency to use to conduct voice communications (telex also available) with the coast station. CoastStation Own Ship(1) Ship in Distress(Own Ship)(3)(2)(2) (3) (1) Ship in distress sends Distress Alert(2) Coast station sends distress acknowledgement (DIST ACK).(3) Voice or telex communications between ship in distress and coast station(1)

CoastStationOwn Ship(1) DSC Message [Called AcknowledgeRequest (ACK RQ) Signal](2) Acknowledge Back (ACK BQ) Signal(3) Voice or telex communication(1)(2)(3) Basic procedure (radiotelephone) 1. Prepare call and transmit it by pressing the [CALL] key. The equipment then awaits acknowledgement of the call. 2. Receive acknowledge back (ACK BQ) signal from other party (coast station or ship station) within about five minutes. The audio alarm sounds at this time; press the [CANCEL] key to silence it. 3. After receiving the ACK BQ signal, communicate with other party; the radiotelephone automatically sets the working frequency and class of emission you specified. 3.3 Audio Alarms When you receive a distress alert or routine call addressed to your ship, the audio and visual alarms are released. For the distress or urgency call, the audio alarm sounds until the [CANCEL] key is pressed, and sounds for one second and then automatically goes off in case of other calls. The tone of the alarm changes with the call received. By becoming accustomed to the tone, you can know which type of call you have received. Alarm Frequency (interval) Safety call received 1300 Hz and 0 Hz (250 ms) Routine, Ship's Business call received 880 Hz and 440 Hz (500 ms) While DISTRESS button is pressed for three s 2200 Hz and 0 Hz (125 ms) Distress alert sent 2200 Hz, continuous Own ship position not updated 2200 Hz (50 ms), three beeps every two s Distress alert, urgency message received 1300 Hz and 2200 Hz (250 ms)

4-1 4 DISTRESS OPERATIONS 4.1 Sending Distress Alert GMDSS ships carry a DSC terminal with which to transmit the distress alert in the event of a life-endangering situation. A coast station receives the distress alert and sends the distress alert acknowledge call to the ship in distress. Then, voice or telex communications between the ship in distress and coast station begins. Transmission of the distress alert and receiving of the distress alert acknowledgement are completely automatic - simply press the [DISTRESS] button to initiate the sequence. Russian version • Audio alarm is released continuously after transmitting distress alert. • The [CANCEL] key can be used during the transmission of the distress alert. The transmission sequence is stopped at the end of the fifth transmission. 4.1.1 Sending distress alert by DISTRESS button, nature of distress not specified 1. Open the DISTRESS button cover and press and hold down the [DISTRESS] button more than three seconds. The button flashes in red and the buzzer sounds rapidly. The display shows the contents of the distress alert call: your ship’s nature of distress, position, time and the DSC frequency over which the alert has been transmitted. The number of seconds to continue pressing the [DISTRESS] button appear at the bottom of the display. The buzzer sounds continuously and the lamp in the button lights when the button has been pressed three seconds. You can release the button at that time.

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. STORE-AND-FORWARDDIRECTDIALINGMULTI-ADDRESSINTERNATIONALTELEX NETWORKCENTRALSYSTEMSYSTEMCONTROLSUB-STATIONSHIP 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.

11 NBDP TRANSMITTING, RECEIVING 11-11 11.9.2 Preparations To use automatic telex, you will 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 XOOOOO: Coast station-assigned five-digit telex codeSHIP: Ship nameX: For shipboard station, normally X is entered. The procedure for registering the answerback code is the same as which appears on page 9-1. If an answerback code was registered before the commissioning of the coast station, a 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 9-7. Registering stations The next step is to enter station name. The procedure is the same as that shown on page 9-3.
