FOREWORD A Word to the Owner of the MODEL-1700C/1700 series FURUNO Electric Company thanks you for purchasing the MODEL1722C/1732C/1752C/1762C Color LCD Radar/Plotter, MODEL1722/1732/1752/1762 Monochrome LCD Radar/Plotter. We are confident you will discover why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability. For over 50 years FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for quality and reliability throughout the world.
Features The MODEL-1700C series, MODEL-1700 series works within our new productnetwork system called the “NavNet.” Each product has an IP address to communicate with NavNet compatible products within the network, using TCP/IP protocol through an Ethernet 10-Base-T. The main features are • Bright 7” screen visible even under direct sunlight. • User friendly operation with combination of discrete keys, soft keys and Omnipad. • Radar picture available with connection to NavNet compatible radars.
SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS All NavNet products incorporate a “network circuit board” to integrate each NavNet product on board through an optional LAN cable (Ethernet 10 Base T). Each NavNet product is assigned an IP address to enable transfer of images between NavNet products. For example, video plotter pictures can be transferred to a radar and vice versa. Pictures received via the NavNet may be adjusted at the receiving end. An NavNet system may consist of a single, dual, or three and more NavNet products.

A beep sounds and the equipment proceeds in the sequence shown below, displaying the startup screen, startup test results and the chart usage disclaimer in that order. The startup test checks the ROM, RAM, internal battery and backup data for proper operation, displaying the results for each if there is NG (No Good). If error is found an appropriate message appears on the screen.
1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW 1.4 Adjusting Display Brilliance, Panel Brilliance, Contrast, Hue You can adjust display brilliance, panel brilliance, contrast (MODEL-1700 series only) and hue (MODEL-1700C series only) as shown below. 1.4.1 Display brilliance, panel brilliance 1. Press the [POWER/BRILL] key with a touch-and-release action. A set of soft keys for adjustment of brilliance and contrast or hue appear.
1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW 1.4.2 Contrast 1. Press the [POWER/BRILL] key with a touch-and-release action. 2. Press the CONTST (MODEL-1700 series) or CONTST/HUE (MODEL-1700C series) soft key. 3. For the MODEL-1700C series, two soft keys appear at the pressing of the CONTST/HUE soft key: CONTST and HUE. Press the CONTST soft key to adjust the contrast. 4. Adjust the [ENTER] knob, clockwise to raise the setting or counterclockwise to decrease it.
1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW 1.5 Selecting a Display 1.5.1 Display modes If you have a radar, navigator and video sounder connected, four full-screen displays are available: plotter, radar, video sounder and navigation data. In addition to the full-screen display, you can divide the screen into half-screen displays to show two sets of images (data), and combine the plotter and radar displays on the overlay screen.
