Call reset OK button Distress transm. Patch covered button with 5 sec activation delay. Arcnet/serial port DB 15M conn: Arcnet: Twisted pair/bus topology, max 100 meter cable.
  • Page 13: Detailed Description

    The TT-3042D includes a distress button, allowing direct transmission of distress calls from the unit. A navigator with NMEA 0183 output can be connected directly to the TT-3042D for routing of position data back to the Capsat transceiver for automatic update of e.g. safety and distress information.

    Connectors Operation Operation 2 2 Operation Operation The TT-3042D Remote Alarm for the Capsat series of Inmarsat-C transceivers operates as a message and status printer, it also displays the general system status. 2.1.1 Distress Transmission Distress transmission is activated by lifting the protective cover and pressing the Distress button for 5 seconds.
  • Page 22: Status Indicators

    Operation Operation Connectors Connectors 2.1.2 Status Indicators Power: The power diode is used as a power-on indicator, furthermore this diode indicates communication status with the transceiver. When the transceiver is turned off or the Arcnet connection is disconnected, the power diode is flashing to indicate the fault situation.

    The sounder timeout option, set by the DIP switch, must not be enabled when the TT-3042D is used as a remote alarm. The sounder timeout option must only be enabled when the remote alarm is used for printing only. When the timeout option is set the sounder will not be turned on for more than 10 seconds.

    15V) signal levels are accepted. The NMEA 0183 input is optical isolated when jumper W2 is in position 1-2 (low). The TT-3042D automatic detects if a NMEA 0183 navigator output has been connected. Standard NMEA 0183 messages are read, position and velocity data extracted and transferred to the transceiver.

    The NMEA 0183 communication parameters are: 4800 baud, 1 stopbit and no parity. Hint: To test the NMEA 0183 link the TT-3042D can be configured to serial data input on NMEA 0183 port, see section 1.5.2, NMEA 0183 sentences should then be printed out.

    Fault Diagnostics Fault Diagnostics Fault Diagnostics Fault Diagnostics 3 3 Fault Diagnostics Fault Diagnostics If power diode does not turn on check fuse, voltage source and remote turn-on setting. If power diode is blinking then Arcnet connection to transceiver is failing. First check if transceiver is turned on, then check the Arcnet cabling, if no result then check Arcnet address settings for all units coupled to transceiver.
