1.2 Customizing your Navman VHF Radio
You can customize the radio to suit your individual preferences. Some preferences can be set
directly through the keys as explained in this chapter.
Other preferences are set up through the built-in menus and these are explained in the other
chapters.
1.3 How to display and navigate menus

on the screen.
2. Press + CH - to scroll up and down the menu until the cursor is postioned at the desired
option. Press ENT to display that option.
3. Make any entries or changes as explained in the following section.
4. Press ENT to confirm changes. Otherwise, press ESC to keep the original entry.
5. Press ESC to backup one screen or exit. Any changes are active as soon as you exit the
screen.
1.4 How to Enter Alphanumeric Data
If your radio does not have an alphanumeric microphone, use the + CH - key or the rotary knob
to enter alphanumeric data.
Press - to count through numbers, or hold down to scroll rapidly to the desired number. Press + to
step through the alphabet, or hold down to scroll rapidly to the desired character.
If you make an error, press - until < is displayed, then press ENT to backup and correct the

LOCAL
DSC
ACK
Local calling is selected. Otherwise, blank for distance calling.
DSC capability is available.
A message acknowledging your DSC call is being displayed.
Happy Fish symbol with four indicator levels. It shows the
probability of good fishing at your current location, based upon
barometric pressure and air temperature. High pressure trends
are associated with stable conditions and calm seas. Research
indicates that best fishing occurs when barometric pressure is
rising and between 1010 and 1022 mb. During these opportune
conditions, most fish are thought to feed anywhere within the
water column. However, low pressure trends bring stormy seas
and affect air bladders, and these conditions make fish move to
deeper levels and become less active.
Local weather forecast based on the local temperature and stored
barometric pressure data. The icons are indicative only and are
more accurate close to land rather than in open sea.
Digital Readout of the current barometric pressure (in mb or
in/Hg) or the current temperature (in ºC or ºF), depending upon
your selection.
Baro Graph. A histogram of barometric pressure (mb) readings
over the past 24 hours. The high-resolution histogram centres
automatically if the range goes off scale. Readouts are taken
even when the engine and radio have been powered down (with
typically less than 3mA of current drain).
A typical operational display is
shown:
The latitude and longitude of the
vessel and the UTC time are
displayed.
Channel 16 is selected in the HIGH
power mode using the International
channel bank. Channel 16 is set as
the Priority channel.
The Happy Fish icon with three bars
indicates good fishing.
Clouds are coming soon and the
current barometic pressure is
displayed.

3.8 Barometric Displays (BARO)
A barometric sensor in the microphone measures air pressure changes, enabling the radio
screen to provide three useful aids towards weather prediction and fishing conditions,
particularly when close to large land masses. (See the information on the Happy Fish icon in
Section 1.5.) There is:
•
a weather icon with five different displays (SUNNY, PARTLY CLOUDY, CLOUDY, RAINY,
SNOWY). The local air pressure trends combined with the local temperature determines
which icon is displayed. Note: in open ocean conditions the weather icon predictions can
be less accurate than when close to large land masses.
•
•
a digital readout of air pressure (in mb or inches of mercury).
a graphical display of pressure changes over the past consecutive 24 hours. Barometric
data is maintained even if the engine and radio are switched off.

Chapter 5 - Sending and Receiving DSC Calls
A valid user MMSID must have been entered to access the DSC
functions.
5.1 WHAT IS DSC?
DSC (Digital Selective Calling) is a semi-automated method of establishing VHF, MF, and HF
radio calls. It has been designated as an international standard by the IMO (International Maritime
Organization) and is part of the GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System).
Currently, you are required to monitor Distress Channel 16, but DSC will eventually replace
listening watches on distress frequencies and will be used to broadcast routine and urgent
maritime safety information.
DSC enables you to send and receive calls from any vessel or coast station that is equipped with
DSC functionality, and within geographic range. Calls can be categorised as distress, urgency,
safety, or routine, and DSC selects a working channel automatically.
5.2 Sending DSC calls
1. Press CALL MENU to show the types of DSC call that can be
made.

Appendix B - Troubleshooting
1. The transceiver will not power up.
A fuse may have blown OR there is no voltage getting to the transceiver.
a) Check the power cable for cuts, breaks, or squashed sections.
b) After checking the wiring, replace the 7 Amp fuse (2 spare fuses are supplied).
c) Check the battery voltage. This must be greater than 10.5V.
2. The transceiver blows the fuse when the power is switched on.
The power wires may have been reversed.
a) Check that the red wire is connected to the positive battery terminal, and the black wire is
connected to the negative battery terminal.
3. The speaker makes popping or whining noises when the engine is running.
Electrical noise may be interfering with the transceiver.
a) Re-route the power cables away from the engine.
b) Add a noise suppressor to the power cable.
c) Use resistive spark plug wires and/or use an alternator whine filter.
4. No sound from the external speaker.
a) Check that the external speaker cable is physically connected.
b) Check the soldering of the external speaker cable.
5. Transmissions are always on low power, even when high (HI) power is selected.
The antenna may be faulty.
a) Test the transceiver with a different antenna.
b) Have the antenna checked out.
6. Battery symbol is displayed.
The power supply is too low.
a) Check the battery voltage.
b) Check the alternator on the vessel.
7. No position information is displayed.
The GPS cable may faulty or the GPS setting may be incorrect.
a) Check that the GPS cable is physically connected.
b) Check the polarity of the GPS cable.
c) Check the baud rate setting of the GPS if applicable. The baud rate setting should be 4800
for NMEA or 38400 for NAVBUS. Parity should be set to NONE.

SPECIAL NOTES ON INTERNATIONAL CHANNEL USEAGE
Notes referring to the Table
General notes
The INTERNATIONAL mode is not legal for use in US or Canada Waters
a. Administrations may designate frequencies in the inter-ship, port operations and ship
movement services for use by light aircraft and helicopters to communicate with ships or
participating coast stations in predominantly maritime support operations under the conditions
specified in Nos. 51.69, 51.73, 51.74, 51.75, 51.76, 51.77 and 51.78. However, the use of the
channels which are shared with public correspondence shall be subject to prior agreement
between interested and affected administrations.
b. The channels of the present Annex, with the exception of channels 06, 13, 15, 16, 17, 70, 75
and 76, may also be used for high-speed data and facsimile transmissions, subject to special
46
VHF 7200 US and 7200 EU Operation Manual
NAVMAN
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
arrangement between interested and affected administrations.
c. The channels of the present Annex, but preferably channel 28 and with the exception of
channels 06, 13, 15, 16, 17, 70, 75 and 76, may be used for direct-printing telegraphy and data
transmission, subject to special arrangement between interested and affected administrations.
d. The frequencies in this Table may also be used for radiocommunications on inland waterways
in accordance with the conditions specified in No. 5.226. – 56 – 62238 IEC:2003(E)
e. Administrations having an urgent need to reduce local congestion may apply 12,5 kHz channel
interleaving on a non-interference basis to 25 kHz channels, provided:
– Recommendation ITU-R M.1084-2 shall be taken into account when changing to 12,5 kHz
channels;
– it shall not affect the 25 kHz channels of the presentAnnex maritime mobile distress and safety
frequencies, especially the channels 06, 13, 15, 16, 17, and 70, nor the technical characteristics
mentioned in Recommendation ITU-R M.489-2 for those channels;
– implementation of 12,5 kHz channel interleaving and consequential national requirements shall
be subject to prior agreement between the implementing administrations and administrations
whose ship stations or services may be affected.
Specific notes
f. The frequency 156,300 MHz (channel 06) (see No. 51.79 and Appendices 13 and 15) may
also be used for communication between ship stations and aircraft stations engaged in
coordinated search and rescue operations. Ship stations shall avoid harmful interference to
such communications on channel 06 as well as to communications between aircraft stations,
ice-breakers and assisted ships during ice seasons.
g. Channels 15 and 17 may also be used for on-board communications provided the effective
radiated power does not exceed 1 W, and subject to the national regulations of the administration
concerned when these channels are used in its territorial waters.
h. Within the European Maritime Area and in Canada, these frequencies (channels 10, 67, 73)
may also be used, if so required, by the individual administrations concerned, for communication
between ship stations, aircraft stations and participating land stations engaged in coordinated
search and rescue and anti-pollution operations in local areas, under the conditions specified in
Nos. 51.69, 51.73, 51.74, 51.75, 51.76, 51.77 and 51.78.
i. The preferred first three frequencies for the purpose indicated in Note a) are 156,450 MHz
(channel 09),156,625 MHz (channel 72) and 156,675 MHz (channel 73).
j. Channel 70 is to be used exclusively for digital selective calling for distress, safety and calling.
k. Channel 13 is designated for use on a worldwide basis as a navigation safety communication
channel, primarily for intership navigation safety communications. It may also be used for
the ship movement and port operations service subject to the national regulations of the
administrations concerned.
l. These channels (AIS 1 and AIS 2) will be used for an automatic ship identification and
surveillance system capable of providing worldwide operation on high seas, unless other
frequencies are designated on a regional basis for this purpose.
m. These channels may be operated as single frequency channels, subject to special arrangement
between interested or affected administrations. (WRC-2000)
n. The use of these channels (75 and 76) should be restricted to navigation-related communications
only and all precautions should be taken to avoid harmful interference to channel 16, e.g. by
limiting the output power to 1 W or by means of geographical separation.
o. These channels may be used to provide bands for initial testing and the possible future
introduction of new technologies, subject to special arrangement between interested or affected
administrations. Stations using these channels or bands for the testing and the possible future
introduction of new technologies shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim
protection from, other stations operating in accordance with Article 5. (WRC-2000)
