CAUTIONS AGAINST HIGH VOLTAGE

Radio and radar devices are operated by high voltages of anywhere from a few hundred volts up to

many hundreds of thousands of volts. Although there is no danger with normal use, it is very

dangerous if contact is made with the internal parts of these devices. (Only specialists should attempt

any maintenance, checking or adjusting.)

There is a very high risk of death by even a few thousand volts, in some cases you can be fatally

electrocuted by just a few hundred volts. To prevent accidents, you should avoid contact with the

internal parts of these devices at all costs. If contact is inevitable as in the case of an emergency, you

must switch off the devices and ground a terminal in order to discharge the capacitors. After making

certain that all the electricity is discharged, only then can you insert your hand into the device. Wearing

cotton gloves and putting your left hand in your pocket, in order not to use both hands simultaneously,

are also very good methods of shock prevention.

Quite often, an injury occurs by secondary factors, therefore it is necessary to choose a sturdy and

level working surface. If someone is electrocuted it is necessary to thoroughly disinfect the affected

area and seek medical attention as soon as possible.

When you find an electrocution victim, you must first switch off the machinery and ground all circuits. If

you are unable to cut off the machinery, move the victim away from it using a non-conductive material

such as dry boards or clothing.

When someone is electrocuted, and the electrical current reaches the breathing synapses of the

central nervous system inside the brain, breathing stops. If the victim's condition is stable, he or she

can be administered artificial respiration. An electrocution victim becomes very pale, and their pulse

can be very weak or even stop, consequently losing consciousness and becoming stiff.

Administration of first aid is critical in this situation.

Cautions concerning treatment of

electrocution victims

First aid

☆Note points for first aid

Unless there is impending danger leave the victim where he or she is, then begin artificial respiration.

Once you begin artificial respiration, you must continue without losing rhythm.

(1) Make contact with the victim cautiously, there is a risk that you may get electrocuted.

(2) Switch off the machinery and then move the victim away slowly if you must.

(3) Inform someone immediately (a hospital or doctor, dial emergency numbers, etc.).

(4) Lay the victim on his or her back and loosen any constrictive clothing (a tie, or belt).

(5) (a) Check the victim's pulse.

(b) Check for a heartbeat by pressing your ear against the victim's chest.

(c) Check if the victim is breathing by putting the back of your hand or face near the victim's face.

(d) Check the pupils of the eyes.

(6) Open the victim's mouth and remove any artificial teeth, cigarette or chewing gum. Leave the

mouth opened and flatten the tongue with a towel or by putting something into the mouth to

prevent the victim's tongue from obstructing the throat. (If he or she is clenching the teeth and it is

difficult to open the mouth, use a spoon or the like to pry open the mouth.)

(7) Continually wipe the mouth to prevent the accumulation of saliva.

☆If the victim has a pulse but is not breathing

(“Mouth to mouth” resuscitation) Figure 1

(1) Place the victim’s head facing backward (place something under the neck like a pillow).

(2) Point the chin upward to widen the trachea.

(3) Pinch the victim’s nose, take a deep breath, then put your mouth over the victim’s mouth and

exhale completely, making sure that your mouth completely covers the victim’s mouth. Then

remove your mouth. Repeat this routine 10 to 15 times per minute (holding the nostrils).

(4) Pay attention to the victim to notice if he or she starts to breath. If breathing returns, stop

resuscitation.

(5) If it is impossible to open the victim’s mouth, put something like a plastic straw or vinyl tube into

one of the nostrils then blow air in while covering the mouth and the other nostril.

(6) Occasionally, when the victim comes back to consciousness, they immediately try to stand up.

Prevent this and keep them in a laying position. Give them something warm to drink and be sure

that they rest (do not give them any alcohol).

Administering artificial respiration by raising the head.

① (1) Raise the back of head, then place one

hand on the forehead and place the other

hand under the neck. →①

Most victims open their mouth when this is

done, making “mouth to mouth”

resuscitation easier.

② (2) Cover the victim’s mouth by opening your

mouth widely, then push your cheek

against the victim’s nose, →②

or pinch the victim’s nose to prevent air

from leaking out of it. →③

③ (3) Completely exhale into the lungs.

Exhale into the lungs until the chest

inflates.

You have to blow as rapidly as possible for

the first 10 times.

“Mouse to mouse” artificial respiration

Figure 1

☆If the victim has no pulse and is not breathing

(Heart massage in combination with artificial respiration.) Figure 2

If the victim has no pulse, his or her pupils are dilated, and if you cannot detect a heartbeat, the heart

may have stopped, beginning artificial respiration is critical.

(1) Put both hands on the diaphragm, with hands on top of each other keeping both arms straight (If

your elbows are bent, you cannot push with as much power). Press the diaphragm with your body

weight until the chest sinks about 2 cm (about 50 times per minute).

(2) If administering first aid when alone:

Perform the heart massage about 15 times then blow in twice. Repeat this routine.

If administering first aid with two people:

One person performs the heart massage 5 times, and the other person blows air in once. Repeat

this routine (Heart massage and “mouth to mouth” resuscitation used together).

(3) Constantly check the pupils and the pulse, if the pupils become normal and the pulse steadies,

keep them in a laying position and give them something warm to drink, be sure that they rest (do

not give them any alcohol). In any case you have to entrust major decision making to a doctor.

Having understanding people around is essential to the victim’s recovery from the mental shock of

electrocution.

Equipment Overview

1. EQUIPMENT OVERVIEW

1.1 Functions

This equipment includes MF/HF transceiver, Class-A DSC and DSC watch keeping receiver required

as the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS). It is designed as a separated

transceiver and small, lightweight controller(s) for easy installation not only in SOLAS Convention

ships such as international passenger ships and freight ships of 300 tons or more, but also

non-conventional ships of less than 300 tons.

As for the main communication function, in addition to the communications of radiotelephone with the

handset and the Morse communication with the CW keyer, calling by digital selective calling (DSC) for

a general or distress communication are possible. Furthermore, if the data terminal is connected to the

controller, the telex communication in the ARQ or FEC mode using the NBDP is available.

1.2 Features

● Compliant with the ITU Radio Regulations (RR), the IMO performance standards, and the ITU-R

recommendations.

● Contains all channels specified in the ITU Radio Regulations (RR).

● The separately designed controller and main unit enable easy installation in limited or difficult

spaces.

● A semi-transmissive LCD with a wide viewing angle is easily viewable even in direct light or when

backlit and allows it to be installed in a variety of positions.

● The backlights of the LCD and operation keys are fully adjustable, preventing interference with

night watch keeping.

● When in distress, the DSC can send a distress message with the expanded position data accurate

up to 1/10000 of a minute for both latitude and longitude to make search and rescue operations by

the RCC easier.

● High-quality stable operation is possible by using DSP technology on a transceiver with a

DSC/WKR modem.

● The DSC operates in Class A mode suitable for all areas, and in Class B mode limited to ships

navigating in A1 and A2 areas.

● An advanced digital audio amplifier with a built-in loud speaker provides a maximum of 5 W of

clear audio.

● The maintenance and the check can be easily done at daily or the regular services, because a

special function key was prepared for the DSC safety test calling and the self-diagnosis.

● It is possible to operate on the screen with the character color and the background color

corresponding to the favor because the data terminal for the telex communication by NBDP

adopted the color liquid crystal display of the wide viewing angle in high brightness.

● Besides printers and GPS, other peripherals such as the remote maintenance system (RMS) can

be connected to the equipment.

4. OPERATION

This chapter describes basic operations of the controller and the data terminal,

radiotelephone communications, telex communications, DSC calling procedures, and

other radio functions.

4.1 Operation overview

4.1.1 Operation of the controller

Basically, the controller is operated with the numeric keypad (10key), the MENU key, and the jog

dial for other than the telex communication. The following is an overview of their operation.

z When two controllers are connected, only one controller having the access right can operate

the equipment except for sending a distress alert, changing audio volume, and changing

display conditions. (Unless otherwise mentioned, the instructions below are for the controller

with the access rights.)

z To obtain the access right at a controller without access rights, press ENT to get the access

right unless the other controller is being operated (PTT/KEY ON or menu operations).

z The DISTRESS key is always available. (The DISTRESS key has the highest priority.)

z On the status display or the operating display, the communication frequency or channel can

be set by using the number keys or if the transceiver setting screen is focused on, setting it

by rotating the jog dial is also available.

z Pressing the TEL DSC or CW key changes the communication mode. If the screen displays

in the menu, immediately shows the status display or the operating display, and also the

channel input mode changes to the free frequency mode. Additionally, the communication

mode can be changed to the AM mode to listen to the radio broadcasting or to the DATA

mode to communicate using the intership fax

z When the communication mode is set to TEL or CW, pressing the same communication mode

key turns the PA on and off. (When the PA is on, ON mark appears.)

z All functions can be accessed using the MENU key, jog dial, and the dedicated keys/controls.

(See the menu tree on the next page.) Further, screens in the menu tree indicated by

"Printable" can be printed from a printer connected to the controller or the data terminal by

pressing and holding the FUNC key and then pressing the 7PRN key.

z Pressing or pressing and holding the FUNC (function) key and a number key allows rapid

access to that function.

z There are two ways to access main menu items. After pressing the MENU key to display the

main menu, use either the jog dial to move the cursor to the desired item and press ENT to

select it, or select the item by pressing the respective number key. (Ex: For Self diagnosis

(6.1.1 Transceiver), press MENUÎ6SPÎ1CLARÎ1CLAR)

z Any menu can be assigned to the USER key to open it with a single touch of a button.

z Normally the key is always enabled.

z Pressing the CH key changes the channel input mode to the User ch, ITU ch or to the free

frequency. This key is enabled when showing the status display or the operating display.

z Pressing the CANCEL key in any menu moves the display up one level in the hierarchy (or to

the status display). The same results can be achieved by selecting "0. Back" when available

on-screen. Further, pressing the CANCEL key on an input line will clear the entered data.

z Pressing the MENU key in any menu opens the main menu. Also, pressing MENU while

in the main menu returns to the status display or the operating display.

z Dialog boxes (popup screens) are opened when necessary and operations can be done in

the dialog box.

z When using DSC calls, to distinguish the messages or conditions, some specific alarms are

provided as listed after the menu tree below.

4.1.2 Operation of the data terminal

Basically, the every function concerning the telex mode such as ARQ/FEC communication or

scanning can be operated from the data terminal.

● To connect and install the data terminal, setup the 7.6 Option menu of the controller.

● To set the communicate mode to the telex mode, press the Enter key of the keyboard.

Additionally, that operation acquires the access right if the controller connected to that data

terminal does not have the access right.

● Every function of the data terminal can be operated from the main menu displayed on a

regular screen, excluding the screen of communication modes other than the telex, telex

communicating screen, the telex file editing screen.

● Because the short-cut key to the table of next page is allocated in each item of the main

menu or the drop down menu, it is possible to execute it easily according to few procedures.

● The guide of the item shown with the cursor is basically displayed under the screen in the

data terminal.

● While displaying the menu screen on the controller, the data terminal cannot be operated

temporally. Similarly, the controller cannot be operated during the telex communication

except the operations of TEL DSC CW and DISTRESS keys.

● Besides the telex communication in ARQ/FEC mode, the data terminal has other functions

such as editing telex messages and the station list, setup of the radio condition, or setup of

the display color of the screen.

● The communication using ARQ mode can be started with a specific radio station by inputting

the selcal number (ID) and the work frequency.

● The communication using CFEC mode can be started as the broadcasting by inputting the

work frequency.

● The communication using SFEC mode can be started as the broadcasting for limited

receivers by inputting the selcal number (group ID) and work frequency.

● The telex communication channel can be set by specifying ARQ or FEC in the DSC message.

In this case, the telex communication may be started without inputting 9 digits selcal number

(ID) and work frequency because those have been already set by the DSC calling.

● Up to 20 stations can be registered in the station list.

● The self-diagnosis of the data terminal is executed from the controller as well as other units.

● The controller outputs the printing data from the printer connected to the data terminal.

● The condition of the data terminal such as the startup or the sleep is synchronized to the

controller connected or the system.

● When the data terminal detects any error(s) concerning to the internal flash memory, the

keyboard, the printer or the connected USB memory, immediately shows the popup screen

and the Information is displayed on the bottom line on the screen until the error is fixed.

4.5.6 Distress relay calls on behalf of someone else (DROBOSE)

If another ship is in distress but is itself unable to make a distress alert, and the master of the

ship considers that further help is necessary, the distress relay call on behalf of the ship can be

transmitted using the "DSC drobose call" menu. In this case, compose a distress relay call format

by inputting the MMSI (if known), the ship's position and the time of position (if known), and the

nature of distress to send to a specific area or a coast station.

CAUTION

When sending a drobose call, do NOT press the DISTRESS key. Doing so may

cause a false distress alert.

■ Procedure ■

Turn on the AC switch and the BATT breaker to start charging the battery.

¾ The AC FAIL/CHG ALARM is activated if the AC switch and BATT breaker are turned ON

at different timing. However it is due to the notification function of the switch/breaker

ON/OFF state and is NOT the alarm for any malfunction.

¾ The NBB-714 is a battery charger for the maintenance free battery only, i.e. the

charging type is floating only and not providing the equalizing charge.

■ Replacing fuses ■

To replace fuses, turn off the AC switch and the BATT breaker first, and then unscrew the

both two fuse cases as shown below to replace them.

Note) The appearance of the blowout fuses look like normal. So when checking if the

fuses are blown or not, always use the tester.

ON while the AC breaker is OFF. However in this case, be sure not to cause over

discharge condition.

・ When any alarm is occurred, treat it as follows.

- BATT HIGH ······················ When the battery overvoltage (32.2~37.0V) is

detected, trips the BATT breaker. In this case,

turn off the AC switch. And then, after the

voltage is recovered to normal, turn on the AC

switch and the BATT breaker.

Note) In this case, the charge alarm is also

detected due to the BATT breaker trip and the

CHG ALARM is activated.

- BATT LOW ······················· Carry on charging. This alarm is cleared

automatically after the battery voltage increases

to approx. 23.5V.

- AC FAIL/CHG ALARM ········· - Turn on the AC input/switch.

11.5 Guide to MF/HF operation

Be aware of the following points when using the MF/HF radio equipment.

z Frequencies available for communication are always changing.

z Not all frequency bandwidths can always be used for communication.

z After sending the DSC test call to a coast station, you will not always receive the

acknowledgement.

1. About the MF/HF radio equipment

Although for ship MF/HF radio equipment the 1.6 MHz to 27.5 MHz frequencies are

normally available, select an appropriate frequency from the frequencies assigned to

your ship for communication. As noted below, the use of the appropriate frequency

depends upon the radio wave propagation characteristics of the ionosphere.

Therefore, not all frequency bands are available for communication even if the

equipment is functioning properly.

2. Special characteristics of MF/HF radio wave propagation

As shown in the figure to the right, the

major MF/HF radio waves used for

communications are terrestrial waves

(path 1) and waves reflected from the

ionosphere (paths 2 and 3). You can

communicate using waves reflected from

the ionosphere and the earth because

the effective communication range of

terrestrial waves is limited6.

The available range of frequencies for

communication depends upon the radio

wave propagation characteristics of the

ionosphere. They will also change dramatically depending on the position and

distance from the station, the season, the time, and the sunspot number (approx. 0 to

250) which changes every 11 years7.

3. Selecting communication frequencies

MF/HF band communication frequencies cannot be predetermined. However, you can

select frequencies referring to previous communications logs, the frequency transition

table in this chapter under "Selecting communication frequencies in the MF/HF band

(reference)", and the radio wave propagation image.

4. About DSC testing

DSC operation is prescribed as an international standard8 of the ITU and coast

stations that receive DSC test calls should acknowledge the calls. Responses may be

sent manually instead of automatically depending on the equipment at the coast

station. It may take longer than expected to receive the acknowledgement even if

your equipment is functioning properly and you have selected the proper

frequency.

6 You may experience skip zones where both terrestrial waves and waves reflected from the

ionosphere are unavailable at the end of the effective communication range of terrestrial

waves.

7 Radio wave propagation is affected by phasing, the Dellinger phenomenon, magnetic storms,

and atmospherics. Interference tends to be greater at night when radio waves can travel

greater distances.

Selecting communication frequencies in the MF/HF band (reference)

When communicating with the MF/HF radio equipment, select frequencies referring to the

frequency transition table and the radio wave propagation images (excluding the polar

latitudes) shown below9.

Example: When communicating with a station approximately 5000 km away at

around 12 pm in the winter with a sunspot number of 100, select

frequencies in the 18, 22, or 25 MHz bands for the best results.
