Introduction
Introduction 1
SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver receives Navtex messages on the
international Navtex frequencies 490 kHz, 518 kHz and 4,209.5 kHz. It can
hold 2000 messages per frequency. Messages are not affected by a power
cycle. If not tagged to avoid deletion, messages are cleared from the
message log after 661 hours. You can customise which stations to receive
messages from and which message types you want to receive. The unit has
an alarm relay which is only activated if a message of category D is received
(i.e. SAR, Mayday relay, Pirate attack etc.). The SAILOR 6390 Navtex
Receiver is always on when powered. With its LAN interface the
transponder and the display can be separated, giving access to the Navtex
information available where it is needed.
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver is delivered as a black box receiver
which can either be connected to the SAILOR 6004 Control Panel, a 7"
touch screen, or used as a standalone unit for integration with an INS,
supporting NMEA0183. A printer can be connected to the receiver.
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver is approved according to GMDSS (EU
Marine Equipment Directive).

4 Use scenarios
Use scenarios
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver can be used in the following contexts:
•Use with the SAILOR 6004 Control panel
•Use as a stand-alone unit with an INS
An optional printer can be connected in both use scenarios.
Use with the SAILOR 6004 Control panel
The SAILOR 6004 Control panel is the user interface for the SAILOR 6390
Navtex Receiver. The user interface is in English. All settings that are
relevant for the user are accessed through the touch panel. Alarms and
notifications are shown in the display and via NMEA. The SAILOR 6004
Control panel has a buzzer for alarm tones and the display supports night
mode. The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver has a Navtex application which is
loaded into the SAILOR 6004 Control Panel during installation.
Use as a stand-alone unit with an INS
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver also works as a stand-alone unit,
integrated in the vessel’s INS. It supports the Navtex specific NMEA
sentences according to the standard IEC 61097–6 and IEC 61162-1. For
further details see the documentation of the INS.

12 Operation with INS equipment
Printer attached to the SAILOR 6004 Control Panel
A printer can be connected to one of the USB connectors of the SAILOR
6004 Control Panel. Every time a Navtex message is received and applies to
the filtering set up for Printer, the message is output on the printer.
The SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver applies header and footer information
to the printout, stating frequency, date and time of reception and serial
number of the SAILOR 6390 Navtex Receiver.
If the printed message line is longer than allowed on the printer, the printer
inserts the sign to indicate a forced line division and breaks the line.
Selecting print lists
To print a selected list do as follows:
1. From the list of messages, tap the menu icon and Print.
2. Tap the list you want to print.
Operation with INS equipment
