Note that scanning is only possible in the ARQ and FEC modes. The NBDP Terminal Unit can control radio equipment through channel scanning. In FEC mode, 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. 8.5.1 Registering scan channel groups You can register ITU and user scan channels as follows: 1.

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 NETWORKSTORE-AND-FORWARDDIRECT DIALINGMULTI-ADDRESSCENTRAL SYSTEMSYSTEM CONTROLSUB-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 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 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 8-1. If an answerback code was registered before the commissioning of the coast station, a
10. NBDP TRANSMITTING, RECEIVING 10-11new 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 Content CALL S: Station Name Calling station name and ID on assigned parameter Two digits, 0-99 min Free-signal searching time according to assigned parameter (default setting: 10 min) FREE (support command for CALL) $RRR$ signal Detect free signal of dot pattern RETRY (support command for CALL) Two digits, 0-99 min Calling according to assigned parameter (default setting: 10 min) CASE Text For receiving a message (designated by parameter) transmitted by coast station TIMEOUT (support command for CALL) Two digits, 0-99 min Time allotted for reception of message by CASE command Text Text transmitted according to assigned parameters SEND A: file name Send a file from floppy disk WRU HR OVER BREAK None Function keys F7 - F10 DISPLAY Text Text of message appears INPUT None Waiting for keyboard input Transmit keyboard input message
