1 OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
1.10 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.) The control unit may be turned on
or off with the PSU kept on.

2. Enter frequency by one of the methods below.
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.
2-3
2 SSB RADIOTELEPHONE
Note: 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.

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.

3 DSC OVERVIEW
3.2.1 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.)
NOTICE
IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL TRANSMISSION OF THE DISTRESS ALERT
If the distress is accidentally transmitted,
contact the nearest coast station and inform
them of the accidental transmission as
follows:
a) Ship's name
b) Ship's call sign and DSC number
c) Position at time of transmission
d) 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.

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.

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.

the equipment receives the distress acknowledge call from a coast station.) The timer
counts down the number of minutes before next retransmission (if necessary), from
3.5 to 4.5 minutes, randomly set.
At this time, the equipment cannot receive any calls except the distress alert

The NBDP Terminal Unit can automatically control radio equipment through channel
scanning. The radio equipment scans a number of channels (according to your selection),
stopping when an incoming signal is found. In the ARQ mode it stops when your own ID
code is detected in an incoming signal. Also, in the ARQ mode, the transmitter is then tuned
to the corresponding transmitter frequency, the communication link is established and the
traffic is automatically exchanged. Scanning resumes once the link is disconnected.

11.9 Preparing Macrofiles for Automatic Telex
11.9.1 Automatic telex overview
This section shows you how to communication 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.

• Multi address.
11-10
11 NBDP TRANSMITTING, RECEIVING
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 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
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.

12.9 NBDP Terminal Unit Maintenance
Regular maintenance is important for good performance. A regular maintenance program
should be established and should at least include the items mentioned below.
12.9.1 Cleaning the equipment
Wipe of accumulated dust from the terminal unit with a soft cloth. Wipe the LCD carefully to
prevent scratching, using tissue paper and an LCD cleaner. To remove dirt or salt deposits,
use an LCD cleaner, wiping slowly with tissue paper so as to dissolve the dirt or salt.
Change paper frequently so the salt or dirt will not scratch the LCD. Do not use solvents
such as thinner, acetone or benzene for cleaning; they can remove paint and marks or
deform the equipment.
12.9.2 Connectors and earth connection
Periodically check the connectors for proper seating and the earth connection for rust.
Remove rust to maintain a good ground system.
12.9.3 Floppy disk drive
Foreign material on the floppy disk drive head can scratch the magnetic material in the
floppy, resulting in loss of data. Clean the floppy disk drive head regularly with a floppy disk
drive cleaning disk to prevent erasure of information stored on disks.

Parts List
This equipment contains complex modules in which fault diagnosis and repair down to
component level are not practical (IMO A.694(17)/8.3.1). Only some discrete components
are used. FURUNO Electric Co., Ltd. Believes identifying these components is of no value
for shipboard maintenance; therefore, they are not listed in this manual. Major modules
can be located on the parts location photos on pages AP-26 thru AP-28.
