Iridium Pilot Installation Manual page 24

If appropriate, use the provided cable when connecting the AC PSU to the AC power source. Otherwise, the
installer should provide a standard IEC cable with the appropriate country plug. The 2-way connector should
be connected to the "power in + and –" terminals within the installation section of the BDE.
When using DC power the installer will need to provide a suitable 2 wire + earth cable capable of providing
12/24VDC nominal (11V min, 32V max) and 50W continuous / 80W for .25 seconds at switch-on at the BDE. The
positive and negative wires must be terminated using the connector from the AC PSU (provided). The 2-way
connector should be connected to the "power in + and –" terminals within the installation section of the BDE.
The earth should be connected to the earth tag inside the installation area.
Shock Hazard
The Below Decks Equipment (BDE) contains low voltage that may cause serious injury if opened
or not grounded. Ensure the unit is properly grounded before operation and do not, under any
conditions, open or dismantle the BDE. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious
injury or death.
Mounting the BDE
After a suitable location has been chosen, mount the BDE:
1. Layout the locations for the mounting screws, 3 total (see template at the end of the manual). The BDE
is mounted with the connector edge facing down. Use the included template as a guide for drilling the
mounting holes.
2. Drill and tap holes for M4 flange style mounting screws
a. Note: Alternative screws or screw / washer combination may be used.
Flange must fit into a 4.5 mm (.18 in.) hole.
3. Hold and screw the BDE against the wall.
4. Remove the SIM cover (retain)
5. Switch the ON/OFF switch in to the OFF position
6. Remove installation cover from bottom left hand corner of BDE (retain cover & screw)
7. Connect internal cables:
a. Fit power feed from the ship's DC buss or from the supplied PSU to power connector on BDE,
use strain relief provided within BDE. The power LED should light Amber.
b. Fit cable from ADE to BDE, use strain relief provided within BDE
8. After checking that all the connections are securely made and have strain relief, replace and fasten the
installation cover.
