iSAFETY INSTRUCTIONSWARNINGImmediately turn off the power at theswitchboard if water leaks into theequipment or something is dropped inthe equipment.Continued use of the equipment can causefire or electrical shock. Contact a FURUNOagent for service.Do not disassemble or modify theequipment.Fire, electrical shock or serious injury canresult.Do not place liquid-filled containers onthe top of the equipment.Fire or electrical shock can result if a liquidspills into the equipment.Immediately turn off the power at theswitchboard if the equipment is emittingsmoke or fire.Continued use of the equipment can causefire or electrical shock. Contact a FURUNOagent for service.ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARDDo not open the equipment.Only qualified personnelshould work inside theequipment.WARNINGKeep heater away from equipment.A heater can melt the equipment's powercord, which can cause fire or electricalshock.Use the proper fuse.Fuse rating is shown on the equipment.Use of a wrong fuse can result in equipmentdamage.CAUTIONDo not use the equipment for other thanits intended purpose.Use of the equipment as a stepping stool,for example, can result in personal injuryor equipment damage.No one navigation device should ever besolely replied upon for the navigation ofa vessel.Always confirm position against all availableaids to navigation, for safety of vessel andcrew.A warning label is attached to the equip-ment. Do not remove the label. If thelabel is missing or damaged, contacta FURUNO agent or dealer.WARNINGTo avoid electrical shock, do not remove cover. No user-serviceable parts inside.Name: Warning Label (1)Type: 86-003-1011-0Code No.: 100-236-230Turn off the radar powerswitch before servicing the antenna unit. Post a warn-ing sign near the switchindicating it should not beturned on while the antennaunit is being serviced.Prevent the potential risk ofbeing struck by the rotatingantenna and exposure to RF radiation hazard.Make sure no rain or water splash leaksinto the equipment.Fire or electrical shock can result if waterleaks in the equipment.

xiFOREWORDA Word to the Owner of the MODEL-1700C/1700 seriesFURUNO Electric Company thanks you for purchasing the MODEL-1722C/1732C/1752C/1762C Color LCD Radar/Plotter, MODEL-1722/1732/1752/1762 Monochrome LCD Radar/Plotter. We are confident you willdiscover why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality andreliability.For over 50 years FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviablereputation for quality and reliability throughout the world. This dedication toexcellence is furthered by our extensive global network of agents and dealers.Your radar is designed and constructed to meet the rigorous demands of themarine environment. However, no machine can perform its intended functionunless properly installed and maintained. Please carefully read and follow theoperation and maintenance procedures set forth in this manual.We would appreciate feedback from you, the end-user, about whether we areachieving our purposes.Thank you for considering and purchasing FURUNO.

xiiFeaturesThe MODEL-1700C series, MODEL-1700 series works within our new product-network system called the “NavNet.” Each product has an IP address tocommunicate with NavNet compatible products within the network, using TCP/IPprotocol through an Ethernet 10-Base-T.The main features are• Bright 7” screen visible even under direct sunlight.• User friendly operation with combination of discrete keys, soft keys andOmnipad.• Radar picture available with connection to NavNet compatible radars.• Accepts C-MAP, Nav-charts™ (NAVIONICS) and FURUNO charts.• Fast chart redraw.• Built-in NavNet interface circuit board.• 12-channel black box GPS unit with highly accurate position fixing optionallyavailable.• Video sounder picture available with connection to NavNet compatible blackbox echo sounder.

xiiiSYSTEM CONFIGURATIONSAll NavNet products incorporate a “network circuit board” to integrate eachNavNet product on board through an optional LAN cable (Ethernet 10 Base T).Each NavNet product is assigned an IP address to enable transfer of imagesbetween NavNet products. For example, video plotter pictures can be transferredto a radar and vice versa. Pictures received via the NavNet may be adjusted atthe receiving end.An NavNet system may consist of a single, dual, or three and more NavNetproducts. For a system incorporating three or more products a “hub” is required toprocess data.Single unitExternal TransducerETR-FN (option)Heading SensorExternal Buzzer,E/S,NavigatorE/S,NavigatorBlackbox GPS UnitGP-310B 10.8-31.2 VDCOther F-NET Unit(GD-1700, etc.)Antenna Unit(ex.

1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW1-21.1 Operating Controls1.1.1 Control overviewThe radar functions are operated with 17 controls. Ten controls are labeled andthey provide the function shown on their labels. The five soft keys’ providevarious functions according to current operating mode. The [ENTER] knob mainlyfunctions to register selections on the menu. The cursor pad’s main function is tomove the cursor across the screen. Whenever you operate a key a single beepconfirms control operation. Invalid operation emits three beeps.Curor padAll modes: Shifts cursor; selects items on menus.Radar: Shifts cursor, EBL, VRM.Plotter: Shifts cursor.Sounder: Shifts VRM, crosshair cursor.On menu screen: Returns tothe previous screen.On other screen: Displays the mode selection window.Soft keysTouch-and-release:Registers own ship’s position as a waypoint.Press three seconds:Marks man overboard position.Opens/closes the main menu.Displays the soft keys for EBL/VRM.Radar: Displays the soft keys for adjustment ofgain, A/C SEA, A/C RAIN and FTC.Sounder: Adjusts gain.Long press: Turns power on/off.Touch-and-release: Opens the display for adjustment of tone and brilliance.ENTER knobRegisters options on menus; selectscharacter; adjusts sensitivity (sounder, radar).Clears data, erases selected mark.Opens/closes the alarm menu.Shows or hides the softkeys, functions keys,nav data alternately.Chart slotSelects a range.Control panel
