CAP SAT TELEPHONE

CAP SAT TELEPHONE

Mobile Inmarsat-phone (Mini M Terminal) The necessary requirements to operate a satellite Telephone

are given bellowThe terminal is registered by a service provider (i.e.

payment arrangement)
A satellite covers the location where the telephone is located. There is free line of sight from the antenna of the terminals to the satellite.

CONTINUE
MES Mobile earth station (i.e. Cap sat telephone) LES Land Earth Station: - The LES is located at the Other end of the MESs satellite link. The LES connects to the local telephone network and manages calls to and from MES. NCS Network co-ordination station: - The NCS is responsible for assigning communication channels to the MES. In case of NCS failure the MES will switch to stand - alone mode. In standalone mode designated LES in each ocean region

CONTINUE
Patch antenna: - It can be fixed on the electronic unit with the antenna cable of 0.15m lengths or it can be fixed away from the electronic unit with the 5.00m cables. The orientation of the antenna is

fixed with the help of the compass so that lone of

sight with the satellite is established. Terminal operation: - The cap sat telephone has three modes of operations relating to its power consumption.

CONTINUE
Power off mode: - No massage received or sent. Power on mode: - The incoming and outgoing is possible. When the terminal is left unused for

60sec.it will automatically go into sleep mod.

Sleep mode: - In this mode the terminal will power

up in short interval to check for incoming call the

green LED lights up in short bursts.

CAPSAT TELEPHONE
SIMCARD: - The Cap sat Telephone may require an Inmarsat SIM card inserted before it will be

operational. The SIM CARD contains IDS and

additional information (phone book). Power On: - Power up the terminal by pressing the key - Squire.

CONTINUE
The LCD displays: - Search for satellite

Move the antenna /cap-sat telephone until the handset writes, Area accept. Where Area is the name of the Area/Ocean Region wanted. Press key - Horizontal Rectangular.
If the antenna is not connected at all you will get an alarm message. Check that antenna is connected correctly. The alarm message can be removed by pressing key - Vertical Rectangular. The cap-sat telephone is now in idle mode.

Select the area that you want to operate in the

current selected area is marked with (*) in the

area list. To select the area, select the area list by

pressing vertical rectangular and squire keys. Choose an area by pressing two vertical

rectangular keys. Accept selection-by-pressing vertical rectangular key.

If the new area is successfully selected the cap sat telephone will write an acknowledge message. Otherwise an error massage will be displayed. The telephone will perform initial sky scan search and will obtain synchronization with the NCS. Green SYNC Indicator indicates the synchronization.

To Select LES Specifically Enter the main menu by pressing two vertical rectangular keys, Scroll and select default by pressing three vertical rectangular keys, choose a LES by pressing vertical rectangular and squire keys; accept selection by pressing vertical rectangular key

Call types - Voice call; Fax calls; Data calls Numbers Subscriber numbers (Ordinary telephone numbers of subscriber; Short codes; Service codes; local numbers Hand shake to AUX/Fax Telephone).

Subscriber number format: Hand set: - Network ID / LES / Phone number. The phone number field specifies the subscriber number to be called including call prefix for automatic call (00) and country code (e.g. 45 for

Denmark). It holds up to 22 digits.
