    Features Connected to a NavNet series display unit (MODEL 1833C/1943C, MFDBB, MFD8/MFD12) or a PC, the FAX-30 receives facsimile images and navtex messages, transmitted from facsimile and navtex stations. • Programmed with all existing facsimile stations and frequencies. User may program 320 channels.
  • Page 10 Facsimile(timer) (highest priority) → Navtex (lowest priority) • The FAX-30 does not have an internal clock, so time is input from a NavNet display or the PC. (For a PC-only configuration, time data is read when the browser accesses the FAX-30.
