Test the System

Follow these steps to test the system for proper
operation.
a. Ensure the antenna has a clear, unobstructed
view of the sky.
b. Verify that the antenna is tracking the service
satellite and the modem is online, as
indicated by the Home page of the TracPhone
V11 web interface (see Figure 59).
c. On the Home page, make sure the vessel's
heading is displayed in the Real-time Vessel
& VSAT Satellite Display (see Figure 60). If it
is not shown, check your wiring to the
NMEA 0183 talker.
d. Enter the following address in your web
browser: http://208.83.165.11/mbbtest.
Verify that the Welcome page appears,
indicating good communications between the
modem and the land-based hub (see
Figure 61).
e. If the customer has activated the system for
mini-VSAT Broadband service, verify that
you can place a voice call. Connect the
supplied diagnostics telephone to the "Voice
Line 1" jack on the rear panel of the
CommBox-ACU (see Figure 62). Then place a
call to someone on a terrestrial or cellular
network and ask them to call you back at the
customer's phone number.
f. If the customer has activated the system, also
verify that the system can access the Internet
by entering any common website address
(URL) into your web browser.
g. Turn on all other electronic equipment above
deck within the proximity of the antenna.
Verify that the system continues to operate
without any degradation in performance.
h. Fill out the installation checklist (provided in
the Customer Welcome Kit) and return it to
KVH. Refer to the instructions on the form.
IMPORTANT!
Submission of the Installation Checklist is
required to certify the quality of your
installation.
