11 Programming and selection of private channels
Only authorized customers are allowed to use private channels. For the use in Germany an
additional license is requested. For detailed informations contact your local radio communica-
tions authorities. To program the private channels, it is necessary to connect the programming kit
PRG-NEPTUNE (optional). PRG-Neptune is connectable to a PC with COM port.
Once have been programmed private channels (maximum 20), they can be selected in the fol-
lowing way:
1. Press one of the 10 numerical keys (0,1,2, etc).
2. Move through the 2 function keys correspondent to “PUT ” or “PUT ”, than select the de-
sired channel.
3. Confirm by pressing the E-button.
Like all other channels in use, the private channels can be merged with all the functions descri-
bed previously (Dual watch, Triple watch, Memory Scan etc.)
12 MAINTENANCE
12.1 Maintenance and warnings
NEPTUNE is a marine VHF transceiver that conforms to IP54 standard, making the transceiver
very reliable when used correctly.
The device was designed so as to avoid requiring maintenance. To keep your transceiver in
optimal operating conditions:
Never open the device (transceiver or microphone) as this may compromise the water
resistant seal.
If the device becomes dirty or dusty, do not use alcohol, solvents or abrasives to clean
it. Use only a soft cloth, slightly dampened with water. For more persistent cases, use a
mild detergent.
