SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Do not open the equipment.

Only qualified personnel should work inside the equipment.

Do not approach the radome closer than 6 meters when it is transmitting.

The radome emits radio waves which can be harmful to the human body, particularly the eyes.

Leave the equipment powered while underway.

Distress cannot be communicated unless the equipment is powered.

Wait at least 30 minutes after turning off the power before entering the radome.

WARNING

Do not operate the equipment with wet hands.

Electrical shock can result.

Keep heater away from equipment.

Heat can alter equipment shape and melt the power cord, which can cause fire or electrical shock.

Any repair work must be done by a licensed radio technician.

Improper repair work can cause electrical shock or fire.

Use the proper fuse.

Fuse rating is shown on the equipment. Use of a wrong fuse can result in damage to the equipment.

The gyro motor rotates for some time after the power is turned off.

Do not disassemble or modify the equipment.

Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result.

Turn off the power immediately if water leaks into the equipment or the equipment is emitting smoke or fire.

Continued use of the equipment can cause fire or electrical shock.

Do not place liquid-filled containers on the top of the equipment.

Fire or electrical shock can result if a liquid spills into the equipment.

iii

CAUTION

Do not use the equipment for other than its intended purpose.

Use of the equipment as a stepping stool, for example, can result in personal injury or equipment damage.

A warning label is attached to the terminal, communication and antenna units. Do not remove any label. If a label is missing or damaged, contact a FURUNO agent or dealer.

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock, do not remove cover. No user-serviceable parts inside.

1. INMARSAT-B SYSTEM

1.1 What is Inmarsat?

The International Maritime Satellite Organization (Inmarsat), founded in 1979, is the international governing body for maritime satellite communication. Its purpose is to provide global communications for ships, land mobile and aircraft, using satellites to overcome the problems that exist with conventional radio communications.

The Inmarsat system is made up of three major components: the space segm ent provided by Inmarsat, the Land Earth Stations (LES) provided by Inmarsat signatories, and Mobile Earth Stations (MES). The Operat ion Control Center (OCC), located at Inmarsat headquarters in London, controls t he overall system.

1.2 Geostationary Satellites

The type of satellites used for maritime communication are geost at ionary satellites. Four satellites, one for each of f our ocean regions, are placed in nearly 36,000 km-high 24-hour circular orbits rotating in synchronous with the earth, providing mobile-to-land, land-to-mobile, and mobile-to-mobile communications. The satellites remain fixed over a given place on the eart h's equator, so an Inmarsat subscriber is always within coverage of a satellite.

1.3 Service Area

The Inmarsat system divides the world into four regions and each regi on is covered by its own satellite. The regions are Atlantic Ocean Region-East (AORE), Atlantic Ocean Region West (AOR-W), Pacific Ocean Region (POR), and Indian Ocean Region (IOR). The reason for two regions in t he Atlantic Ocean is to solve the coverage gap problem there.

The function of each body in the Inmarsat system is as shown in the table below.

Inmarsat bodies

Body Function

Operation Control Center (OCC) The OCC is the nerve center of the

system and is located at the Inmarsat’s headquarters in London. The OCC provides continuous, round-the-clock cooordination for all functions in the Inmarsat system.

Satellite Control Centers (SCC)

The SCCs main function is to correct satellite rotation error.

Network Coordination Stations (NCS)

Each region has an NCS. The NCS controls the lines of communication and broacasts information such as navigational warnings, weather reports and news.

Mobile Earth Stations (MES)

Mobile Inmarsat-B stations including aircraft.

1.5 Inmarsat-B Services

The Inmarsat-B maritime satellite communication system provides digit al telephone (voice), facsimile, telex and data (9600 kbps) an d HSD services. Use of the latest digital technology means lower toll charges than in Inmarsat-A, since high output power satellites are not required and data is transmitted at high speed.

1.6 Comparison of Inmarsat Systems

Inmarsat provides worldwide communication services f or bot h maritime and land subscribers, and consists of four systems, A, B, C, M and Mini-M. The following table shows the services available with each system.

3.1 Before Beginning Communications

3.1.1 Overview

Telex communications methods

A telex message may be sent three ways:

Auto telex (page 3-11)

•

Manual telex (page 3-14)

•

Programmed telex (page 3-18)

•

Before you can transmit a telex message automatically or by timer program you must first register the LES codes and telex numbers of stat ions you wish to call. This is also recommended for greater convenience on manual transmission. Further, you will need to prepare text messages.

Telex messages

Telex messages which you create may be stored on floppy disks. To send a telex message retrieve it from a floppy disk and then transmit it. For how to create a telex message see page 3-4.

3.6 Polling

Polling means one station (the polling station) interrogating another or others (the polled station or group of stations) for the purpose of receivin g a message. The polling station may be a ship station (MES) or a shore subscriber, while the polled station is always an MES.

When a polled MES finds the polling command in t he received message, it requests the station sending the polling command to transmit its ID number. In this way, the authenticity of the polling stat ion is confirmed. The polled MES then responds automatically in a predeterm ined m anner, either with a data reporting message or by initiating a ship-to-shore or ship-to-ship message transfer.

3.6.1 Polling procedure overview

A land or MES station transmits polling command to your vessel. (/POLL /)
