Setup Mode, NAVTEX View, 518 and 490 Names Pages

The station names setup pages determine the

names of stations displayed on station filter pages

and in NAVTEX message headers.

The picture shows the ‘518 Names’ page; the ‘490

Names’ page is similar.

Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the setting

that you wish to edit. Use the LEFT and RIGHT

keys to change the setting.

The Station Name Selection setting allows the user

to select between ‘GPS’ and ‘Manual’ station

selection. If ‘GPS’ is selected the ICS NAV6 will

select the NAVTEX transmitting station name

nearest to the boat’s current location, but within the

same NAV area.

If ‘Manual’ is selected, then the user can manually

select the transmitting station name to be displayed

for each station letter.

(Tip : You may be sailing in Nav Area II and therefore will pick station names from

Nav Area II. However it is important to realise that the corresponding station letter

in the adjacent Nav Areas may be closer. For example, the ‘S’ station that you are

receiving is the ‘S’ station in an adjacent Nav Area).
