® The satellite system used by the Sailor Telephone is operated by the international organisation, Inmarsat. The system consists of four satellites which combined guarantee world-wide coverage (see appendix B for coverage maps).
Page 16 Introduction MES Mobile Earth Station. This is the name that Inmarsat uses for terminals. E.g. the Sailor ® Telephone is a MES. Mobile refers to the fact that the terminals are re-locatable. Earth Station is a satellite communication term. Land Earth Station.

UIDE Please read through Technical Reference section before installing the equipment. YSTEM OMPONENTS Figure 2 -1 TT-3064A Sailor Maritime Telephone Configuration NSTALLATION The installation consists of three steps: 1. Planning the installation 2. Installing the equipment 3. Doing compass calibration Please refer to the following sections for guide-lines on installation.
Page 18: Planning The Installation
Sailor Installation Guide LANNING THE NSTALLATION Figure 2 -2 The above label is attached to the TT-3007C Antenna Warning! The TT-3007C Antenna radiates microwave signals. Keep 0.5 meter of safety distance from the antenna Select the antenna position on the basis of the guidelines listed below.
Page 19 Sailor Installation Guide therefore a safe distance must be observed. Allow a passage distance of 0.5 meter from the antenna. If possible, mount the antenna above the center of gravity of the vessel, this reduces the effects of pitch and yaw on the motion sensors in the antenna.

Sailor Installation Guide Referring to the base casting on the next drawing the front/back line is a vertical line passing through the center of the antenna. NSTALLING THE QUIPMENT Figure 2 -3 Antenna Outline and Hole Pattern. A 1.5” mast mount kit is available from Thrane & Thrane. If using the mast mount kit, be sure that the mast is made from a non-magnetic material.

Page 25: Remote Turn-On
Sailor Installation Guide Remote Turn-On The system can be configured for remote turn-on by connecting the ignition detection input on the 6 pole PTR screw connector to a special generator output or another desired power control circuit. With the ignition detection connected the system will turn on whenever a voltage higher than 10V is present on the input (primary referenced).
Page 26 Sailor Installation Guide Figure 2 -7 Cradle and Handset Outline The cradle unit is equipped with a 2 meter cable for the main unit connection. The cradle is mounted using 4 self-tapping screws, and the screw holes are then covered with adjacent patches.
Page 27: Compass Calibration
Figure 2 -8 Handset Connectors OMPASS ALIBRATION The magnetometer of the Sailor Maritime Telephone must be calibrated after installation on the vessel. Calibration of the magnetometer is performed automatically while slowly turning the boat into a yaw of approximately 400 degrees. This must be performed in calm water to keep boat roll and pitch angles as close as possible to zero.

ODES This appendix lists the cause codes used in relation to incoming/outgoing voice/fax/data calls. In case of abnormal clearing of a call by the Sailor ® Telephone. abnormal clearing of a call by the LES or the NCS. an error message is displayed in the handset. In many cases (but not all!) this error message is a translated text of a Cause Code sent to/received from the satellite.
Page 144 Appendix F - List of Cause Codes Auth. reply not received (19C5) Call cleared by the LES because an authentication reply (SIM card check data) has not been received from the MES. Call Cleared (110F) Call cleared at terrestrial side due to a normal on-hook (hang- up).
Page 145 Appendix F - List of Cause Codes Invalid service (12A5) Call cleared by LES. Service not authorised at this LES. Invalid service address (13D1) Call cleared by LES. Dialled number is invalid. LES clear unspecified (11B5) Call cleared by LES for unspecified reason. LES congested (1155) Call cleared by LES.
Page 146 Appendix F - List of Cause Codes MES can't accept (1182) Call cleared by MES. MES cannot accept incoming call due to invalid parameters in call setup from NCS or due to unsupported service at MES. MES clear unspecified (11B2) Call cleared by MES for unspecified reason.
Page 147 Appendix F - List of Cause Codes Not installed (1180) Incoming call cleared by the MES because the call was address to a terminal (different from handset, aux phone, fax, data) not available by the MES. Premature call clear (1641) Call cleared prematurely by the user (on-hook, hang-up) while setting up the SCPC channel.
Page 148 Appendix F - List of Cause Codes Below is a list of cause codes used internally in the MES. They are not defined by Inmarsat and they are not sent to/received from the satellite. Call Cleared (0007) Call cleared by MES due to a normal user on-hook (hang-up). Call rejected (0008) Call rejected by MES because it is not idle (Bulletin Board not received etc.)
