<strong>NAV4</strong>plus <strong>User</strong> <strong>Guide</strong><br />

When you switch on the <strong>NAV4</strong>plus for the first time it will accept all<br />

categories of messages from all NAVTEX stations on the currently<br />

selected frequency.<br />

It is likely that you will wish to reduce the amount of information<br />

printed so that only NAVTEX messages applicable for your area are<br />

printed.<br />

For 518kHz operation you have two options :<br />

1. Programme out any stations and categories that you do not want<br />

to receive so that they are ignored. Any of the NAVTEX<br />

message categories can be ignored, if required<br />

2. Link a GPS or integrated instrument system (with GPS) and let<br />

the <strong>NAV4</strong>plus select NAVTEX stations automatically. The<br />

<strong>NAV4</strong>plus contains an internal database of 518kHz station<br />

locations.<br />

For 490kHz operation station selection can only be made manually –<br />

there is no internal database of 490kHz station locations. If you wish<br />

to reduce the amount of information printed then programme any<br />

stations and categories that you do not want to receive so that they<br />

are ignored. Any of the NAVTEX message categories can be<br />

ignored, if required.<br />

Message category definitions and a world-wide list of<br />

NAVTEX stations and their identification codes can be<br />

found near the end of this user guide.<br />
