The temperature must not exceed 55° C.To ensure that the SIM card is easily accessible, do not place the satellite transceiver box higher than 1.5 m abovethe floor.
5InstallationSC41502.3 How to Mount the Satellite Transceiver BoxFix the satellite transceiver box to the wall using the four screws included in the package. The screws are positionedas shown below:First tighten three of the screws. The wall surface should be plane. If there is a discrepancy in planeness exceeding1 mm, level the discrepancy up by shims or washers under the fourth screw before this is tightened.9927
6Installation SC4150 Inside of finishing cover:2.4 How to Put on the Finishing CoverWhen the satellite transceiver box has been mounted on the wall, put on the finishing cover.The small lid in the finishing cover should be shut. Press the hooks inside the finishing cover down on the two thin edgesof the satellite transceiver box. While pressing, let the two plastic spears inside the finishing cover into the two squareholes of the satellite transceiver box.Press hard on the spots shown in the picture below until a loud click is heard.When putting on the finishing cover, do not use any tools – only your hands.9927
7InstallationSC415099272.5 How to Insert the SIM CardFirst, open the small lid in the finishing cover protectingthe SIM card reader. Then go through each of the follow-ing steps:Unlock the SIM card holder by pushing the lock with yourfinger nail.Lift the SIM card holder so that the slot points upwards.Insert the SIM card in the slot. Make sure that the cut-offcorner of the card is placed as shown in the picture.Push the SIM card holder back down, and lock it bypushing the lock with a finger nail.Finally, shut the lid again.
8Installation SC41502.6 How to Remove the Finishing CoverYou may need to dismount the satellite transceiver box from the wall, e.g. in connection with service.For access to the mounting screws, the finishing cover can be removed from the satellite transceiver box as follows:Put a screwdriver into the slot in the printed circuit board beside the SIM card reader, and press gentlyto unhook the plastic spear.While pressing with the screwdriver, lift up the same side of the finishing cover slightly to loosen it.Repeat this procedure on the other side of the finishing cover.You can now detach the finishing cover from the satellite transceiver box by pulling it gently upwards.9927
9InstallationSC41502.7 How to Change the Antenna Cable PositionIn some installations, it may be convenient to change theantenna connection to a position at the top of the satellitetransceiver box.First face the back of the satellite transceiver box.Now, unscrew the four screws holding the L-band trans-ceiver (LBT) unit. Note that you will need both the screwsand the spring washers later on. Unscrew the antennaconnection bush at the bottom of the satellite transceiverbox by turning the slimline nut anticlockwise.Next, untangle the LBT unit by pulling the antenna busheasily upwards and out of the hole.9927
10Installation SC4150Place the demounted LBT unit near the satellite trans-ceiver box, without disconnecting it. Rest the bottom ofthe satellite transceiver box on a block of soft wood. Usea hammer and a mandrel to hammer out the brick indi-cated by a recess in the top of the aluminium case. Becareful not to pinch, squeeze, or in other ways damagethe ribbon cable. If the hole is not “clean”, use a file orpliers to remove the rest.Turn the LBT unit upside down, and put it into the satellitetransceiver box, pushing the antenna bush up through thenewly made hole. Make sure the ribbon cable is foldednicely and not pinched under the brackets of the LBT.Fit the big spring washer and slimline nut on the antennabush, and tighten it.Finally, fasten the LBT unit in the new position using thefour screws and the spring washers.The transceiver box can now be mounted on the wall.Follow the instructions given above on “How to mount thesatellite transceiver box”.9927
11InstallationSC41502.8 Installation of the AntennaOne of the advantages of this equipment is the easy-to-handle, lightweight and rugged antenna. Because theIRIDIUM ® system is characterised by a good link margin, the antenna is a passive quadrifillar helix type, requiringno external power supply and consisting of only nonmoving parts.The following figures show the antenna and the two different mounting accessories available:The mounting bracket in fig. 1 can be used in two different ways - mounted on either a rail or a pole.The fitting in fig. 2 can be used at the top of a tube. Please note that it is necessary to mount the cable, and seal thisconnection securely before the antenna and fitting are mounted on the tube.2" pipeFour M4x10Four M4 serrated lock washersAngle mounting bracketFour M4 washersAntennaFour M8 lock nuts and M8 washersPipe clampTwo M8 U-boltsFour M4 serrated lock washersFour M8 lock nuts and M8 washersFour pieces M4x10Angle mounting bracketFour M4 washers2" pipeTwo M8 U-boltsAntennaPipe clamp36623AFig. 1 Fig. 29931
12Installation SC4150PrecautionsIn order to avoid interference or any other kind of disturbances from other systems on board, there are a fewprecautions to take note of:RadarsAccording to any installation guide for radars it is of vital importance that any other units are kept outside theradiation beam of the radar. Please consult fig. 3, showing what area to avoid:36622A10°e.g. from the radarAvoid interference10°10°Unobstructed view until10° below the horizonGPSTests have shown that only in case very old GPS equipment is used, a user may expect a minor influence onthe GPS originated from the Iridium equipment. This can be avoided by ensuring a distance of at least 1 mbetween the two antennas.9931
13InstallationSC4150Inmarsat equipmentThe operating frequency bands of the iridium and Inmarsat systems are neighbours, and it is not in any way byany technical solution possible to completely separate these bands. This means that interference from Inmarsatcan be expected, especially if the antennas are placed near each other. The distance between the antennasShould be as far as possible.If in any way the user experiences trouble using Iridium because of Inmarsat, a filter can be provided as anoption. This filter is placed in a suitable place between the antenna and the transceiver. The filter is a passivetype not requiring external power.
