CHAPTER 1. OVERVIEW
1.1. Genaral
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 and IHO, NAVTEX with ‘Narrow Band
Direct Printing’ is a receiving system on board, using NAVTEX Receiver.
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 ;
Navigational warnings such as iceberg movement-related safety.
Meteorological warnings such as typhoons and wave heights.
Search and Rescue activities by Coast Guard or Coast Station, including any urgent warnings.
1.2. Broadcasting
1.2.1. Frequencies in Use
IMO recommends that navigational warning, meteorological warnings, information on SAR and 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.
1.2.2. Location of Coast Stations and Broadcasting Time
The location of broadcasting stations basically depends on the transmitting output and the conditions
of the electric wave in the region. The stations are normally located in the range from some 250NM to
400 NM.
In reality, the major factors that decide the service region of the broadcasting stations are
‘Broadcasting Station ID’ and ‘Broadcasting Time Plan’.
It is decided by IMO Coordination Committee. As the broadcasting time of each station is every 4
hours, set not to exceed 10 minutes, the broadcasting between the stations is not overlapped.
Chapter 7 is covering the broadcasting time of each station in neighboring countries.

4
1.2.3. Transmission Mode
According to M.625-3 of ITU-R Recommendations, as NAVTEX broadcasting employs 5 Bit Code as
ITA No.2 Code System (that is used for international telegraphic transactions by CCITT
Recommendations F.1), only 32 characters are available.
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 additionally allocates
26 codes.
The 32nd code is used to for the Korean shift code. 5Bit ITA code is converted to 7Bit and then
transmitted. All 7Bit codes are composed of 3(three) “ 1(B) ” and 4(four) “0(Y)” and used for
checking any errors.
Besides, the system works on correcting any errors in the way of FEC(Forward Error Correction) that
the same characters are transmitted at the back of 4 characters(280mS) for comparison.
M E S S A G E DX Signal
M E S S A G E DX Signal
M E S M S E A S GS E A G E TX Character
M E S S A G E TX Character
*Notes: Such cases may occur that the conversion code(Letter, Figure, Korean) is not received and
that the printing is faulty despite normal receipt of data.
1.3. Message Type
The message type of NAVTEX broadcasting is as follows. In transmitting, the system transmits
Message for matching with the receiver after transmitting Phase signal over 10 seconds. The general
message type is as below.

* Notes: For the Boldface-related messages, it is forbidden to exclude Display on the receiver or
Printouts.
1.3.2. Numbering
Serial No. (B3B4) - Serial numbers from 01 to 99 are given in NAVTEX Message.
NAVTEX Coordinating Station gives these serial numbers. As a special figure, “00” is used only for
significant texts 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 any completely received text.
1.3.3. End
NNNN : This means the end of any received text.(End of Message)

Local channel (490KHz/4209.5KHz).
Compact and light design creates the easy installation available.
The operation of power supply prevention circuit makes the input power cut in case of less than
DC 10V or more than DC 36V.
It can indicate the frequency on which any text is being received.
In case of failure in normally receiving, it shows the reason on LCD screen.
In case of power on and performance of its self-diagnosis test, it is possible to automatically
check the status of the equipment inside.
