The following summarizes the points that you understand before servicing.
1) Some setting operation on vtLite Marine requires a owner password.
It recommends the default password 1234567890 unchanged. The password cannot
be factory-reset.

2) Check antenna movement at power-on visually after installation. Antenna elevation
angle is initialized 45 degrees at every power-on.

3) Up to 7 ISDN devices can be connected. When the distance between the
Communication Unit and the last wall socket exceeds 10m, the socket is terminated
with 100-Ohm resister, or an ISDN bus end plug, RJ45 termination plug may be
used.

4) ID (OID/DID) and MSN numbers are used in pairs. These depend on services and
ports in use.

5) Serial printer, ML-280 is connected to RS-232A/B port. Baud rate is set to 4800 bps
automatically.

6) Each service is supported by the following ports.

RS-232A RS-232B or RS-422 USB ISDN
vtLite Marine Yes Yes Yes No
UDI Yes Yes Yes Yes
MPDS Yes Yes Yes No

** When a PC connect to ISDN port and RS-422 ports, it is via an appropriate level converter.

7) Breaking WARRANTY SEAL will void the warranty. Only unit replacing is repair
option.

8) EEPROM on the Connector Interface board in the communication unit memorizes
Forward/Return ID.

9) MPDS and UDI services use different dial-up number.
MPDS : **94#
UDI : Network provider Phone number
Each port supports single application. Before MPDS or UDI communication is
made, quit vtLite Marine program.

10) The LES is selected through Menu ->1:Set default provider/Menu. Explain that
procedure to users.

Fleet provides a voice, fax and data service for maritime users using the Inmarsat-3
spot-beam capable satellites. In emergency situations, a limited service using the
Inmarsat-2 legacy satellites will be provided.
- The F77 variant provides voice, UDI: high-speed ISDN data and MPDS: Inmarsats
mobile packet data service to users anywhere in the world.
- The F55 variant provides the same services, but offers data services only within the
spot-beam coverage area of the Inmarsat-3 satellites.
- The F33 variant provides a global voice service, as well as a medium-speed fax and
data service within the spot-beam coverage area.
All three variants are designed for maritime environments and are specified to operate
reliably under the demanding conditions expected at sea.

All members of the Fleet family are fitted with a Global Positioning System (GPS)
receiver which is integrated into the units electronics. The GPS receiver provides
accurate position information to allow the MES to determine whether it is within
coverage of a spot-beam and, if so, which beam provides the best coverage.

Spot-beam operation:
All members of the Fleet family make use of the spot-beam coverage provided by the
Inmarsat-3 satellites to provide higher performance than is possible in global beam.
The Fleet Family uses the spot beam map and the terminals GPS position to calculate
the spot beam.

- Reduce MES size, weight and EIRP.
- Reuse of frequencies in the same ocean region.
- Saves satellite power.
- Generation 3 satellites provide up to seven spot beams.
- Generation 4 satellites will provide more than 200 spot beams.

Global-beam voice operation:
All members of the Fleet family will support 4.8kbps telephony services within
Inmarsat Global and spot beam coverage areas.

9.6kbps asynchronous data indicated in preceding section, but
use is made of the Inmarsat-B facsimile interface unit at the
MES and LES in place of the Modem Interface Unit (MIU).
Apart from the higher transmission data rate (9600bps), there is
no significant difference in performance requirements and
service features for the 9.6kbps fax service from the 2.4kbps fax
service indicated in the preceding section.
UDI 64 kbps 0.60 to 0.74
The ISDN channel is analogous terrestrial ISDN services, and is
charged on a per minute basis. ISDN is well suited to
applications that make efficient use of the data communication
channel. On circuit switched networks (ISDN), it is important
to reduce the connected time, in order to lower costs.
DATA
MPDS 64 kbps
0.0342
SDR/10kbit
The MPDS channel provides access to a packet data network,
which supports the TCP/IP protocol. This service is new to
maritime users, and offers an alternative to the ISDN channel.
The MPDS channel is charged differently to circuit switched
network; MPDS is charged on amount of data sent/received. It
is well suited to applications that do not make efficient use of
the data communication channel or have inherent delays in the
way in which they are used. On packet data networks (MPDS),
the quantity of data is important, rather than the connected time.

** Communication charge: The ships except for Japanese flag use KDDI, the charge depends on the other
communication party. 1SDR=about $1.38=about 160

** - UDI: Unrestricted Digital Information (HSD: High Speed Data)
- MPDS: Mobil Packet Data Service - ISDN: Integrated Service Digital Network

Though G4 FAX receives faxes from the G3 and G4, G4 FAX cannot send to G3 FAX.
1.1 General

1-5
2. Cost Comparison


Fig. 1.1.1 Cost comparison between MPDS and HSD
The MPDS communication is charged to the amounts of data, and the UDI
communication is charged time of duration.
The UDI is circuit switching system, so it takes about 30 seconds to log-on for network.
(Thats why the diagram (see Fig. 1.1.1) is made from the point of 500.) When the data
is smaller than 120 to 130kbytes, MPDS is economy rate than UDI.
It takes 2.5 to 3 minutes/1 M byte for the communication of 64k data.

16QAM: 16-positions Quadrature Amplitude Modulation
The 16QAM makes signal constellation by combination of 4 phases and 4
amplitudes for 16 signal constellations. Information of 4 bit/symbol can be
transmitted. Compared with the other digital modulations (e.g. O-QPSK, BPSK and
so on), a lot of information can be transmitted per symbol, and it can be performance
high-speed digital communications with narrow band. The signal constellation of the
modulation is shown as below.

Fig. 1.1.2 Signal constellation of each modulation

AMBE: Advanced Multi Band Excitation
AMBE is codec for 4.8 k speech voice signal is changed to a digital signal through
the A/D converter. After being compressed by AMBE, the error correction is added
and changes to 4.8 kbps digital signal.
The 64 k speech is PCM (Pulse Code Modulation). The voice signal (bandwidth: 4
kHz) sampling with 8 kHz, and it is changed to binary data of 8 bits.
(8 kHz x 8 bits=64 kbps)

FEC (Forward Error Correction)/VI TERBI :
FEC consists of convolution encoders to decrease the number of data error.
Fleet channel type use forward Error Correction (FEC) coding with a convolutional
encoder. For example, the FEC coding rate is 1/2, in the rate-1/2 code, 3 consecutive
input bits generates 6 output bits.
The viterbi is the decoder, which decodes FEC code.

TURBO codes:
The TURBO Convolution Code decoder is used in conjunction with a TURBO
Convolution Code encoder to provide an extremely effective way of transmitting
data reliably over noisy data channels. The TURBO decoder operates very well
under low signal to noise condition and provides a performance close to the
theoretical optimal performance. When a decoding operation is started, the core
accepts the block size and the number of iterations from two input ports. The
systematic and parity data is read into the core in parallel on a clock by clock basis.
The core than starts the decoding process and implements the required number pf
decode iterations. Finally the decoded bit sequence is output. The entire sequence
is automatically controlled from a signal First Data signal and requires no user
intervention.

3.1k Audio:
The 3.1k Audio provides to connect for analogue user (G3 FAX, Analogue modem
an so on) to using ISDN. The 3.1k audio signal speed is 64 kbps, so that can be
connected to ISDN.

1.1.4 UDI and MPDS
1. 64 kbps Data UDI: Unrestricted Digital Information
This service is intended to provide the user with a full-duplex dial-up data connection into
the ISDN network. The HSD service uses an ISDN S/T interface built into the MES.
Data rates of 64kbps and 56kbps are supported on digital networks; however, analogue
56kbps modems (e.g.V.90) may not be supported by all LESs.
User equipment is typically connected via an ISDN RJ-45 connector on the MES. Calls
can be initiated by either the mobile user or the terrestrial ISDN subscriber.
The UDI channel is used SCPC (Single Channel Per Carrier), so that it is occupied during
communication.



Fig.1.1.3 ISDN 64 kbps HSD system



When the file is transferred by UDI, the situation of data transmitting from PC is as below.
The communication speed of UDI channel is 64 kbps. It resulted in measuring throughput
Tx: 58.5 kbps, Rx: 3.2 kbps. You can see that the data is transmitted by almost 64 kbps
because UDI channel is SCPC.

2. MPDS (Mobile Packet Data System)
The Fleet system (F77, F55 and F33) supports Inmarsats Mobile Packet Data Service
(MPDS). This packet-based service allows IP-based connectivity from the users
computer to any destination that can be reached via the internet, including web servers,
secure corporate servers, e-mail servers, etc.
MPDS operates on dedicated MPDS satellite channels, in both the to-mobile and
from-mobile directions. As these channels are shared between several users, the average
throughput may vary. The individual terminal sends and receives data at a speed of up to
64 kbps.

5.5.1 Startup Sequence
The startup sequence is illustrated below. The system acquires the satellite which was used
before power-off. See page 7-11 for the change of the handset screen at power-on. With
Ready for call message, the system function is correct.




















If GPS data is not fed to the system, a communication of using spot beam cannot be made
even with the presence of Ready for call message. Without GPS data, the system cannot
select a spot beam and generates Beam selection failed message in Menu 989: Network
status.

ASK (Amplitude shift keying)
A form of amplitude modulation for digital signals, where the bits are quantified by
various levels of amplitude.

Data Transceivers
The Data Transceivers provides communication between the Modem unit and the ADE.
It consists of one transceiver for communication with the ADE, one for communication
with the antenna pedestal/controller and one for receiving GPS data from the ADE.
The Data Transceiver communicating with the ADE Transceiver is used on/off-keying
of a 10.7 MHz oscillator. It is interfaced directly to DSP. The Data Transceiver
communicating with the antenna pedestal/controller uses the same technique with a 4
MHz oscillator, but is interfaced via a microcontroller that is linked to the CPU. A
simple receiver (demodulator) is used for receiving GPS data (using 30 MHz carrier
frequency). It is linked directly to the CPU.

7.2 Antenna Unit (SF-170)
7.2.1 Outline
The antenna cable, 50-0hm coaxial cable carries transmitting / receiving signal, ASK
(Amplitude shift keying) control signal, and +48VDC. The system is designed to be
used with a cable that has 5 dB to 15 dB of loss.


Fig.7.2.1 Connection of ANT and BDE

The antenna unit consists of a stabilized antenna pedestal, a helical-array antenna, a
pedestal control unit (PCU), an HPA CHASSIS, a GPS receiver, and a T. RECEIVER:
tracking receiver. The GPS receiver is installed mandatorily. A service switch and a fuse
locate on the HPA.

GPS Antenna
7.2 Antenna Unit (SF-170)

7-6
The built-in GPS receiver outputs position data to the communication unit for the
calculation of the antenna elevation angle. The calculated elevation angle is sent to the
antenna unit from the communication unit.

The position data is also used to select a spot beam. LES receives the position data from
the MES at a call and assigns the spot beam to the MES.

7.2.2 Stabilized Antenna Pedestal
The pedestal is mounted on the anti-vibration mounts. The rotary joint connects the
pedestal to the base electrically.












Fig.7.2.4 Antenna unit with radome removed


The stabilization of the antenna is achieved by the active 3-axis control to compensate
ship motion: yaw, pitch, and roll. The axes include AZ axis, EL axis, and cross-EL axis.
The AZ, EL, and Cross-EL axes are at right angles each other. The AZ post rotates 360
degrees. The antenna elevation angle is set with the EL axis and the antenna is kept
level with the Cross-EL axis. An angular rate sensor is mounted on each axis to detect
ship motion. The sensor produces a voltage proportional to the rate of rotation about the
sensors input axis. At every power-on, the elevation angle is reset to 45 degrees by
using the clinometer in the level cargo.

The PCU communicates with the communication unit (BDE) via HPA CONT board
(16P0202). The PCU receives a signal, from T.RECEIVER Board (16P0201) to monitor
the signal strength. See Fig.7.2.3. The PCU points the antenna toward the satellite and
tracks the satellite signal in the following sequence.

1. At power-on, the level cargo rotates ccw until it hits the stopper.






2. The level cargo rotates cw 45 degrees.








3. The level cargo becomes level. That is, Antenna elevation angle is set to 45 degrees.









7.2 Antenna Unit (SF-170)

4. Cross-EL axis becomes level.






5. Antenna elevation angle is set to one which is used before power-off.







6. The antenna rotates cw to point at the satellite in the last use.








7. Now, the system receives NCS CC signal from the satellite.

8. Receiving the signal from T.RECEIVER(16P0201) board, the antenna points at the
satellite accurately in the conical scan technique.

Antenna Movement flow chart
At every power-on, the system points the antenna at the satellite which is used before
power-off. The system tries to receive No.1 NCS CC signal if the No.0 NCS CC signal
is not received. If the system fails to receive No.1 NCS CC signal, it searches the
satellite in all directions.

7.2.6 TX circuit in Antenna Unit
HPA CONT board, 16P0202 receives 1643.5+17 MHz, 0dBm signal from the BDE and
delivers it to HPA board 16P0198. The output signal from HPA board is supplied to the
antenna (20.3dBi) via the diplexer with 0.5dB attenuation. The HPA is a linear amplifier.
The HPA CONT board power-controls the TX signal and turns on and off the HPA
cooling fan. HPA board feeds back temperature and RF signal level to HPA CONT
board.


Fig.7.2.10 TX circuit

The system provides variable transmission power capability in both the forward and
return directions. The purpose of forward power control is to conserve satellite L-band
power for SCPC channels operating in the Voice and Data modes. The purpose of
the return power control is to reduce adjacent channel interference, and the MES power
consumption. Unlike the baseline Inmarsat-M system, the forward and return power
adjustment during a call is dependent on the signal quality of the assigned SCPC
channels.

1. HPA CONT Board
The gain of Q2 is controlled by U1 to U5 so that the output level of Q2 is kept constant
with cable loss of 5 to 15dB. In other words, Q2 and U1 to U5 compensate signal level
0 dBm to +10Bm. APA controller circuit (U5 to U7) receives EIRP level signal from
the CPU (U505) and RF output detected signal (AD3314out) from HPA board. Q4 and
Q6 are gain-controlled by APC controller circuit, so that the system transmits with the
signal in determined EIRP.


Important!
HPA CONT board is factoryadjusted with HPA board, so these boards must be
handled in pair.

If the antenna unit detects an error, an error signal is delivered to the BDE by using 10.7
MHz, ASK-modulated signal. Following antenna error messages are displayed in vtLite
Marine display.

2. HPA Board
The HPA amplifies 16-state Quatrature Amplitude Modulation (16 QAM) signal
linearly. The RF signal detector U5 detects RF signal at the final stage of the transmitter
and outputs AD8314out signal to HPA CONT board. The temperature sensor U4
outputs temperature data LM60Cout. When the temperature reaches 55 deg., the
cooling fan is activated. At 120 deg., no VCCA(6V) is supposed to HPA board from
HPA CONT board and FETs turn off with no bias voltage. Fig.7.2.14 shows Input level
vs. Output level of HPA circuit. HPA only is obtained by using HPA board only
without the feedback circuit and EIRP by using HPA and HPA CONT boards. Two
EIRPs in Fig.7.2.14 are high and low EIRPs, with the feedback circuit, the constant
output power is obtained with various input livel.

7.2.7 RX Circuit in Antenna Unit
1. LNA chassis
The LNA chassis consists of a diplexer and a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA). The coaxial
cable carries +6V to LNA. The diplexer isolates RX and TX signals with Band Pass
Fillers.

LNA
- RX antenna gain : 20.3dBi
- LNA gain : 40 to 44dB
- NF : Diplexer + LNA1.5dB

Diplexer
- Isolation : 80dB or more (From ANT to RX)
75dB or more (From TX to ANT)
- Loss : 0.5dB or less
- Power : 30W or more
- VSWR : 1.5 or less

2. Receiver in HPA CONT board
The output from LNA is sent to the down converter and Broard Band (B.B) Receiver
for DGPS decoder on HPA CONT board. The gain of 246 MHz IF signal amplifier is 18
dB to 23dB and the gain of B.B receiver is about 6dB. The output from LNA is also
supplied to T.Receiver via HPA CONT board.

3. Tracking Receiver
Tracking Receiver (T.Receiver) is used to track the satellite. Thus, the system always
receives NCS common channel signal.
The receiver outputs RECEIVER OUTPUT signal to PCU board and
The antenna tracking system is controlled to be a maximum of RECEIVER OUTPUT
signal from T. Receiver board.
Conical scan technique is used to change the antenna direction.

Fig.7.2.16 Block diagram of T.Receiver board

The frequency data of the NCS common channel is sent from the communication unit to
the Antenna unit. DDS and PLL in T.Receiver are set for this frequency. When PLL
unlocks, it is reset to the same frequency. When PLL is defective, the system searches
the satellite in all directions because of no NCS CC signal.

AP3.2.5 Faultfinding
1. Checking your configuration
Connection attempt fails quickly and reports a hardware error with the modem
Check that no other application for example hyper-terminal or vtLite is using the serial
port and check that the serial cable is properly connected between the PC and the
terminal.
The MPDS real time status display starts but the connection fails to establish before
timing out.
Start hyper-terminal or another terminal emulator so AT commands can be entered to
the terminal.
First check the LES being used AT+WLES? The terminal will reply with the LES
access code being used. If this is not what you expect change the value with
AT+WLES=xxx and save the new value with AT&W now check that it is possible to
access the MPDS service by entering AT+WREG=1.
The real time status display should show Allocating Tuning and finally
Registered
If instead you see Failed Inactive then the terminal has not been able to connect to
the MPDS service with the given access code.
The result of the registration attempt is also shown to the AT interface.
If registration worked then deregister with AT+WREG=0.
The registration attempt above fails immediately
The error message is "Line busy".
Check that the MPDS service is an installed paid function on the terminal. Open menu
991 in vtlite after logging in as Owner. Scroll down the list of service and you should
see MPDS in the list. If not contact FURUNO.

The registration attempt succeeds but connection attempts fail
Check that the max speed of the modem that was setup is 115200bps.

AP3.2 Troubleshooting

AP3-21
2. Faultfinding
After starting the connection as described above one should see:
a) The dial up networking connection dialogue shows the normal progression of
dialing verifying user name and password and registering your computer on
the network
b) The real time status indication on the terminal should show Registering then
Registered
c) Once a Connect has been received from the host the Modem display/ISDN
Handset will show Connected.
d) The connection should be established and usable after the completion of PPP
negotiation.

Error and clear cause logging on the vtLite application window
The terminal includes call logging and a record of any errors that occur. To assist with
improving the system please note the contents of these if a problem is encountered.

C/No display Signal Strength I ndication
For data communication it is of major importance that the mobile has a high enough
Carrier-to-Noise Ratio (C/No) before the call is established. (a voice call is not as
sensitive to this as a data call).
Before establishing any sort of data call (HSD or MPDS) verify that the display in
vtLite indicates minimum 535.

Diagnostics
To enable diagnostics open menu Advanced Functions -> Configuration -> Enable
diagnostics 9-7-4
And select On. Press ESC key 4 times to return to the idle screen.

Version information
The versions of the software components used in your system are shown in menu
Advanced functions -> Information available -> Misc version Id.
