Programming is accomplished by generating the message in the computer with information based on the unit and protocol selected. Data is then sent to the FPR-10 interface unit and the interface unit handles all further communications with the beacons via infrared light. To program an RLB-32, RLB-33 or PLB, connect 6 Conductor Cable with RJ11 (phone) between the front panel of the FPR-10 and the appropriate programming head.

See notes below for clarification of the different protocols. When prompted, enter the value corresponding to the protocol chosen, e. g. if serial protocol is chosen enter the appropriate serial number. Note 1: MMSI is defined as the 9 digit ship identification number. It is the country code followed by the ship's unique numeric identifier. If less than six digits are entered, the FPR-10 automatically enters zeros in the beginning of the value. For example, if the unique identifier is 123456 and you enter 12345, the MMSI will be saved as 012345. There will be a warning from the PC if this occurs before it is automatically saved.
