Mr. Anderson
May 16, 2025

To change the SAILOR 6006 terminal into SATC (Inmarsat C) mode, the system must be properly started and logged into the satellite network. Follow these steps:

1. Power on the SAILOR 6006 using the power switch on the right side or a connected remote on/off switch.
2. The terminal will automatically attempt to log into the Inmarsat C network during startup.
3. If it does not log in automatically or the selected satellite is unavailable:
- Go to the main menu.
- Select Network.
- On the Network Status page, select Login.
- Choose the appropriate Ocean Region to connect to a satellite.

Once logged in, the system is operating in SATC mode, ready to send and receive messages via Inmarsat C.
