iCAUTIONS AGAINST HIGH VOLTAGERadio and radar devices are operated by high voltages of anywhere from a few hundred volts up to manyhundreds of thousands of volts. Although there is no danger with normal use, it is very dangerous if contactis 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 fatallyelectrocuted by just a few hundred volts. To circumvent accidents, you should avoid contact with theinternal parts of these devices at all costs. If contact is inevitable as in the case of an emergency, you mustswitch off the devices and ground a terminal in order to discharge the capacitors. After making certain thatall the electricity is discharged, only then can you insert your hand into the device. Wearing cotton glovesand putting your free hand in your pocket, in order not to use both hands simultaneously, are also verygood methods of shock prevention.Quite often, an injury occurs by secondary factors, therefore it is necessary to choose a sturdy and levelworking surface. If someone is electrocuted it is necessary to thoroughly disinfect the affected area andseek medical attention as soon as possible.Cautions concerning treatment of electrocution victimsWhen you find an electrocution victim, you must first switch off the machinery and ground all circuits. If youare unable to cut off the machinery, move the victim away from it using a non-conductive material such asdry boards or clothing.When someone is electrocuted, and the electrical current reaches the breathing synapses of the centralnervous system inside the brain, breathing stops. If the victim's condition is stable, he or she can beadministered artificial respiration. An electrocution victim becomes very pale, and their pulse can be veryweak or even stop, consequently losing consciousness and becoming stiff.Administration of first aid is critical in this situation.
iiFirst aid☆Note points for first aidUnless 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 dentifrice, food or chewing gum. Leave the mouthopened and flatten the tongue with a towel or by putting something into the mouth to prevent thevictim's tongue from obstructing the throat. (If he or she is clenching their teeth and it is difficult toopen the mouth, use a spoon or the like to pry open the mouth.)(7) Continually wipe the mouth to prevent the accumulation of saliva.
iii☆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 exhalecompletely, making sure that your mouth completely covers the victim's mouth. Then remove yourmouth. 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, stopresuscitation.(5) If it is impossible to open the victim's mouth, put something like a plastic straw or vinyl tube into one ofthe 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 thatthey rest (do not give them any alcohol).Administering artificial respiration by raising the head.①①①①(1) Raise the back of the head, then place onehand on the forehead and place the otherhand under the neck. →①→①→①→①Most victims open their mouth when doing this,making "mouth to mouth" resuscitation easier.②②②②(2) Cover the victim's mouth by opening yourmouth widely, then push your cheek againstthe victim's nose,  →②→②→②→②or pinch the victim's nose to prevent air fromleaking out of it.  →③→③→③→③③③③③(3) Completely exhale into the lungs.Exhale into the lungs until the chest is inflates.You have to blow as rapidly as possible for thefirst 10 times.("Mouth to mouth" resuscitation) Figure 1.
iv☆If the victim has no pulse and is not breathing(Heart massage in combination with artificial respiration.) Figure 2If the victim has no pulse, his or her pupils are dilated, and if you cannot detect a heartbeat, the heart mayhave 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 yourelbows are bent, you cannot push with as much power.) Press the diaphragm with your body weightuntil 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 thisroutine. (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, keepthem in a laying position and give them something warm to drink, be sure that they rest (do not givethem any alcohol.). In any case you have to entrust major decision making to a doctor. Havingunderstanding people around is essential to the victim's recovery from the mental shock ofelectrocution.①①①①②②②②③③③③④④④④(Heart massage in combination with artificial respiration.) Figure 2

3-43.3  Setting Position and Time Data3.3.1  Setting the Internal Clock(DATE & TIME EDIT)The built-in clock of the NCT-196N can be set the date (year, month, and day) and time manually. However if theNCT-196N is connected to a navigation aid, the manual input data is overwritten because the navigation aid haspriority over the NCT-196N internal clock. The standard time is UTC but it is possible to input time difference fromthe UTC and display the current local time (LT). Note that in case of no navigation aid connecting, time data shouldbe set to the present time manually and periodically because the time data input manually is treated as invalid dataand deleted after 23.5 hours past.    Procedure1.

Simultaneously, a buzzer sounds to indicate which type ofmessage has been received. The message is then saved as either a distress/urgent message or a generalmessage.The NCT-196N stores up to 20 received distress/urgent messages and up to 20 general messages. When 20messages have been stored, the oldest message is deleted each time a new message is received.In case of distress/urgent messages, newly received messages are not stored if a message with the same contentalready exists in memory. However, if any error occurs while receiving the message, both of the messagescontaining the error and the error-free message are stored.In case of general messages, the NCT-196N stores both the original message and the new message even if theyhave the same content as each other.Distress/urgent messages ・・・・・Messages in "DISTRESS" format or for which the category is"DISTRESS" or "URGENCY".General messages ・・・・・・・・・・・Messages other than distress/urgent messages.Print receivedmessage.Is this a distress orurgent message?●DISTRESS/URGENCY lamp lights.●Distress/urgent buzzer sounds.●Message stored internally as distress/urgentmessage.●Note, however, that if a message with identicalcontent has already been received, thismessage is not stored.●OTHERS lamp lights.●General call buzzer sounds.●Message stored internally as general message.●Note that even if a message with identicalcontent has already been received, thismessage is stored.YESYESYESYESNONONONONote
