MARINE VHF RADIOTELEPHONE
Instruction Manual
.
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.
Cautions concerning treatment of
electrocution victims
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 nonconductive 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.
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)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Check the victim's pulse.
Check for a heartbeat by pressing your ear against the victim's chest.
Check if the victim is breathing by putting the back of your hand or face near the victim's
face.
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 VHF radiotelephone, Class-A DSC and DSC watchkeeping 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
international passenger ships and freight ships of 300 tons or more, but also conventional ships of
less than 300 tons.
It has the radiotelephone, the DSC communication functions, received voice recording and
playback function, and self-diagnosis function with simple operation using a dedicated key.
Additionally, it offers such as public address function using an external speaker, intercom function
for communication between controllers, and the DSC calling function using an automatic
identification system (AIS) information.
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).
● In addition to channels specified in the ITU Radio Regulations (RR), this equipment also
provides USA, Canada, European inland waterway, and weather channels. It also allows the
use of up to 200 private channels.
● Contains ATIS (Automatic Transmitter Identification System) function for the inland waterway
channels.
● Separately designed transceiver and controller enable easy installation in limited or difficult
spaces.
● A semi-transmissive LCD with a wide viewing angle features easily viewable even when with
straight light or backlit and allows it to install variety positions.
● The backlights of the LCD and operation keys are fully adjustable, preventing interference
with night watch keeping.
● The DSC is very easy to operate, especially a routine call, which can be sent by pressing the
dedicated routine call key and selecting address only. Additionally prepared a dedicated
menu for DSC safety test calling to make a radio communication inspection simple.
● When in distress, the DSC can send the distress message with the expanded position data
containing the digits up to 1/10000 of minutes for both latitude and longitude to make search
and rescue operation by the RCC easier.
● The received voice recording and playback function enables later confirmation or temporary
saving of communications.
● An advanced digital audio amplifier with a built-in loud speaker provides 5Wmax of clear audio.
● A dedicated self-diagnosis key makes maintenance and inspection simple.
● Besides printers and GPS, other peripherals such as the AIS, the VDR, and/or remote
maintenance systems (RMS) can be connected to this equipment.

key, and jog dial.
●
When two or more controllers are connected, only one controller having the access right can
operate the radiotelephone, except for sending a distress call, changing audio volume, and
changing display conditions. (Unless otherwise mentioned, the instructions below are for the
controller with the access rights.)
●
To obtain the access right at a controller without access rights, press the jog dial or take the
handset off-hook under such condition that the controller with the access rights is not in use (such
as taking a handset off-hook, pressing the PTT ON, or operating menu). However note that a
controller installed as a high priority can always obtain the access right if only at the PTT OFF
condition.
●
The DISTRESS key is always available even if the controller does not have the access right.
(The DISTRESS key has the highest priority.)
●
To verify a prepared DSC message just before sending, provides two types of verification screens:
Simple mode (shows editable information only) and Detail mode (shows every information).
●
On the status display, the VHF channel number can be set by using the numeric keys directly or
by rotating the jog dial.
●
On the status display, pressing the
receiving audio (or noise).
●
Placing the handset back on-hook will return the channel to CH16 (factory default value).
the on-hook detection can be disabled at the menu 9.3-5 Hook switch.
●
All functions can be accessed using the MENU key, jog dial, and the dedicated keys/controls.
(See the menu tree of the equipment on the next page.)

Any menu can be assigned to the
●
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.
●
Pressing the MENU key in any menu opens the main menu.
while in the main menu returns to the status display.
●
If no operations are done for 10 minutes while a menu is open, the screen automatically returns to
the status display.
●
Dialog boxes (pop-up screens) are opened when necessary and operations can be done in the
dialog box.
●
Screens in the menu tree on the following page indicated by "Printable" can be printed from a
printer connected to the controller by pressing and holding the Func key and then pressing the

Automatic acknowledgement
If the automatic acknowledgement is set to ON, and when received any one of the individual calls below, the
acknowledgement will be sent automatically without notice.
・ Routine - a polling call
・ Safety - a position request call
・ Safety - a test call
This function will be disabled in distress mode or PSTN communication mode, or while the PTT is ON.
Furthermore, if performed this function during dual watch or scanning, the channel dwell time might be longer
than usual.
■ Procedure ■
To activate the automatic acknowledgement function, set the 1. Automatic ACK condition to ON
with the jog dial.
5.5.2
Disabling the automatic channel shift
When receiving any one of the following DSC calls having a valid working channel, the radiotelephone channel
can be shifted automatically to the specified channel. (Note : For the other DSC calls, the channel shift can be
performed manually.)
・ Routine - a group call
・ Safety - an All ship call
・ Routine/ Safety/ Urgency - an acknowledgement to the individual call own ship has transmitted before.
However, to avoid disruption of the important ongoing communication, this function must be disabled according to
the menu operation. The following describes the procedure to disable this function.
■ Procedure ■
To disable the automatic channel shift function, set the 2. Automatic CH shift condition to OFF
with the jog dial.

5.5.3
Disabling receiving alarms for routine and safety calls
The aural alarm for routine and safety calls can be disabled as follows.
■ Procedure■
To disable the receiving alarms for routine and safety calls, set the 3. Safety/Routine ALM
condition to OFF with the jog dial.
5.5.4
Medical/Neutral use setting for urgency calls
The following describes the procedure to set the condition so that an urgency all ships call containing the
additional subject of either "Medical transportation" or "Neutral nationality" can be sent.
Additionally, note that this setting will return to the default setting (OFF) if the power is turned off.
■ Procedure ■
To use these kinds of calls, set the 4. Medical/Neutral use condition to ON with the jog dial.
5.5.5
Expanded MMSI registration
If existing multiple DSC devices having the same 9-digit MMSI on board a ship, setting the 10th digit of the MMSI
number to a non-zero value is available to distinguish them in the case of routine individual calls.
The handling of 10-digit MMSI is as follows.
・ When sending a routine individual call, the caller ID (own ship station's MMSI) will be 10-digit MMSI.
・ When receiving a routine individual call, the DSC having the identical address only will treat the message, i.e.
mainly the DSC having "0" as the 10th digit of MMSI will receive an individual call addressed to the own
station.
・ When sending an acknowledgement to a received individual call, the address of the call will be entered the
caller's ID of the individual call as it is, i.e. if the 10th digit of the caller's ID is not "0", the address will be
10-digit MMSI automatically.
■ Procedure ■
To register the 10th digit of own MMSI, set the number to the 5. Expanded MMSI condition with
the numeric keypad or the jog dial.
CAUTION
Usually, it is not necessary to set it as any values other than zero.”0”.
Please be sure to set the VHF transceiver installed in a bridge as “0”
When values other than “0” are set up, DSC may be unable to receive.
