If the Transceiver is unable to get synchronisation the indicator will be off. Please notice that the TT-3020C during power-up will at- tempt to auto-login to a preferred ocean region if currently logged out of the network.
Power connector The battery connector is a standard DB-15 male, located on the rear panel of the TT-3020C at X1. Regardless whether the unit is designed to work on floating DC or modified to match your DC requirements the pin assignment of the DC/Battery power connector and DC cable matches the de- scription given in Table 5.
Table 5 TT-3020C Capsat Transceiver DC Power Connector pin assignment Pin 6 is a unique feature for the TT-3020C Capsat Transceiver. When this pin is left floating the Transceiver is turned off, but if pin 6 is shorted to the negative terminal of the battery or DC- supply, the Transceiver will be switched on.
