CHAPTER 1. OVERVIEW
1.1. GENERAL
NAVTEX is an abbreviation for Navigational Telex and it is a Telex-Broadcasting system of the coast
stations worldwide. NAVTEX of the coast stations broadcasts not only the defined ID, but also all
the information on navigational warnings, weather warnings, SAR and other marine warnings for
navigational safety of those vessels equipped with NAVTEX Receiver in the coasts.
Consisting of a part of WWNW of GMDSS monitored by IMO & IHO, NAVTEX with Narrow Band
NAVTEX is designed to receive all the marine safety information service made with the letter
broadcasting both in English and in Local language on International Frequency : 518KHZ and on
Local Frequency : 490KHZ or 4209.5KHZ. The services provided are mainly divided into 3(three)
categories as follows ;
- Search and Rescue activities by Coast Guard or Coast Station, including any urgent warnings.
1.2. BROADCASTING
other information be received from NAVTEX stations and broadcast on 518KHZ for English, on
490KHZ or 4209.5KHZ. Both 518KHZ for English and 490KHZ for Korean have been used since
March of 1999, but Japan uses 424KHZ for their local language exceptionally.

As it is impossible to display Text, Figures, Marks, Shift Signals only with 32 codes,
the system allocates the conversion signals and the figure conversion to Shift Signals and
The 32nd code is used for the Korean Shift code. 5Bit ITA code is converted to 7Bit and then
transmitted. All 7Bits are composed of 3(three) 1(B) and 4(four), 0(Y) and used for

These serial numbers are given by NAVTEX coordinating station. As a special figure, 00 is
used only for significant tests such as rescue and it is unconditionally displayed on LCD
screen. In case NAVTEX receives any message with this kind of special figure, it is designed to
always print out whatever message it is. Therefore, the printing is strictly controlled. Other
serial numbers, excluding 00 are memorized in CPU and used to avoid printing repetitively

CHAPTER 2. SYSTEM
2.1. Feature
The equipment is fully compliant with M.540-2, M.625-3, IEC-61162 Performance Standard of IMO
Resolution MSC.148(77)ITU-R Recommendation.
The equipment has 2(two) built-in receiving devices both on English channel(518KHz) and on Local
channel(490KHz/4209.5KHz).
The operation of power supply prevention circuit makes the input power cut in case of less than DC
10V or more than DC 36V.
In case of power on and performance of its self-diagnosis test, it is possible to automatically check
the status of the equipment inside.
In case of receiving A, B, D, L type messages among the received messages, it is indicated on LCD
screen and a buzzer is activated.
It is possible to store more than 200 pieces of data, which is composed of 1600 letters per channel.
It is available to select any Station ID for reception refusal and to select any received message
classification ID.
It does not store any message that has more than 33% error rate of received letters, or that fails to
display in a normal way.
The supportive languages for this manual are in English, Chinese and Korean available. This manual
is written in English.

CHAPTER 9. IEC 61162 Message Composition
The NRX sentence is used to transfer the contents of a received NAVTEX message from the NAVTEX
receiver to another device. As the length of a single NAVTEX message may exceed the number of
characters permitted in a single NMEA 0183 sentence, many NRX sentences may be required to transfer
message body 7
status indication 6

day 1-31
NOTE 1 The total number of sentences required to transfer the NAVTEX message from the NAVTEX
radio receiver.
The first field specifies the total number of sentences used for a message, minimum value 1. The
Sentence Number field identifies the order of this sentence in the message, minimum value 1. All
sentences contain the same number of fields. For efficiency it is recommended that null fields be used
in the additional sentences where the data is unchanged from the first sentence (this applies to fields 4
through 12).
NOTE 2 The sequential message identifier provides a unique identifier for each NAVTEX message
represented by a group of sentences. Though the message code (field 4) contains a NAVTEX message
serial number, there are special cases when the message serial number is set to 00 and has a different
52 SNX-300
meaning or when the same message code can occur more than once. When these conditions occur, the
sequential message identifier can be relied upon to uniquely identify this NAVTEX message from other
NOTE 3 The NAVTEX message code contains three related entities. The first character identifies the
transmitter coverage area and the second character identifies the type of message. Both these
characters are as defined in Table I of Recommendation ITU-R M.625-3, combination numbers 1-26.
Transmitter identification characters are allocated by the IMO NAVTEX Co-ordinating Panel; these
characters and the meanings of the message type characters are described in the NAVTEX manual (IMO
publication 951E). The remaining two characters are restricted to numerals with a range of 00 to 99
and represent a serial number for each type of message. The value of 00 is a special case and not
considered a serial number. See 4.3.5 for interpretation of special case value of 00.
NOTE 4 The frequency indicator identifies the frequency that the NAVTEX message was received on:
1 = 490 kHz
2 = 518 kHz
3 = 4209,5 kHz
NOTE 5 The total number of characters indicates the expected size of the message body sent in this
sequence of NRX sentences. It does not include the additional overhead for reserved characters found
NOTE 6 Status A is used for syntactically correct message reception. Status V is used for syntactically
NOTE 7 The message body may contain reserved characters as defined in IEC 61162-1.

NOTE 2 The frequency indicator identifies the frequency that the NAVTEX message was received on:
1 = 490 kHz
2 = 518 kHz
3 = 4209,5 kHz
NOTE 3 The transmitter coverage area mask is defined as a 32 bit hex field where the least significant
bit represents transmitter coverage area A, the next bit is B and so on up to bit 25 which is Z. Bits
31 through 26 are reserved for future use and are set to zero. To select a transmitter coverage area, its
corresponding bit should be set to one. To deselect a transmitter coverage area its corresponding bit
NOTE 4 The message type mask is defined as a 32 bit hex field where the least significant bit
represents message type A, the next bit is B and so on up to bit 25 which is Z. Bits 31 through 26
are reserved for future use and are set to zero. To select a message type its corresponding bit should
be set to one. To deselect a message type its corresponding bit should be set to zero.
SNX-300 55
When another device (for example an INS) wishes to set one or more of the bit masks it sends one or
more NRM sentences to the NAVTEX receiver. When another device wishes to determine the current
values of the bit masks it sends a query sentence to the NAVTEX receiver as follows:
$--CRQ,NRM*hh<CR><LF>
On receiving this query, the NAVTEX receiver will respond with one NRM sentences for each mask type
and frequency combination that it supports. For example, a NAVTEX receiver which supports separate
storage, printer and INS masks for each of three receiver requencies will
Example usage:
$INNRM,2,1,00001E1F,00000023*57
This example specifies that message identifiers A, B and F, received from transmitter areas A to E
and J to M on 490 kHz should be sent to the printer port when they are received. Note that this
command sets the printer mask for future use; there is no immediate output generated as a result of
Example usage:
$INNRM,0,2,00001E1F,0FFFFFFF*21
This example requests that all currently stored messages of all message types, received from
transmitter areas A to E and J to M on 518 kHz should be immediately returned to the requesting
device as a series of NRX sentences. Note that this command does not update any of the stored masks.
