SAILOR 60 GX

Quick guide

Configuration tasks (minimum)

This quick guide aims at experienced service personnel who have installed the SAILOR 60 GX system and

connected power. It lists the minimum configuration tasks you have to make before the system can be

used on-air on a satellite.

1. Switch on the Antenna Control Unit only.

2. Connect a PC to LAN3 connector at the rear of the Antenna Control Unit.

3. On the ACU keypad, push and hold the left arrow key for 5 seconds and wait for the very short display

of Local administration, followed by the event text: 0807F-0 WARNING Local administration

enable. This gives you temporary administrator access for 1 hour or until next restart

4. Open an Internet browser to access the web interface of the SAILOR 60 GX: IP address:

http://192.168.0.1. (default on LAN Port 3), user name: admin, password: leave empty or type in new

(minimum 8 characters).

5. Switch on the modem and wait for the modem to boot and perform the initial BUC calibration.

6. Verify that the SAILOR 60 GX acquires the GX satellite. Check that the ACU display shows

ACQUISITION.

7. Verify that the system is operational. Check that the status in the ACU display shows TRACKING and

the upper status line MDM: NETOK.

Potential issues

Important

Do not switch on the modem at this point.

Configuration

task What to do and where to find more information

Heading input Configure the heading input to External under SETTINGS > Navigation. For more

information see Select the desired heading input, see the following table. on page 6-4.

Connect the ship’s heading (NMEA0183, RS-422/RS-232) to the NMEA 0183 multi-

connector. For more information see NMEA 0183 connector on page 4-3.

Azimuth

calibration

Make an azimuth calibration under SERVICE > Calibration to ensure that the antenna

can point and receive a signal from the satellite. For more information see Calibration on

page 6-8.

Cable

calibration

Make a cable calibration under SERVICE > Calibration to ensure that the cable loss is

calculated properly. For more information see Cable calibration on page 6-12.

Satellite profile Activate the satellite profile with the GX modem.

Symptom Cause Remedy

The display shows BUC

CALIBRATION OUTDATED.

The GMU has been connected to the antenna

before the cable calibration was done.

Use the GMU dashboard to

perform OTC manually.

Status does not show

MDM: NETOK.

Check if the GMU has RX locked status Locked,

TX allowed YES and BUC TX ON (ACU

Dashboard).

If yes, consult your provider

to confirm that the GMU is

provisioned.

Safety summary

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation,

service and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific

warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture and

intended use of the equipment. Thrane & Thrane A/S assumes no liability for the customer's

failure to comply with these requirements.

Microwave radiation hazards

During operation the Above Deck Unit (antenna) in this

system radiates Microwave Power.This radiation may be

hazardous to humans close to the Above Deck Unit. During

transmission, make sure that nobody gets closer than the

recommended minimum safety distance.

The minimum safety distance to the Above Deck Unit

reflector on the focal line is 30 m for SAILOR 60 GX and GX-

R2 4.5W, and 44 m for SAILOR 60 GX High Power and GX-R2

9.0W, based on a radiation level of 10 W/m2. No hazard

exists >28° below the Above Deck Unit’s mounting plane.

Refer to the drawing below.

No-transmit zones

In order to protect personnel no-transmit zones can be programmed. For further information

see Blocking zones with azimuth and elevation on page 3-5.

MICROWAVE RADIATION

No personnel within safety distance

28°

Safety distance:

SAILOR 60 GX and GX-R2 4.5 W: 30 m, 10 W/m2

SAILOR 60 GX High Power and GX-R2 9.0 W:

44 m, 10 W/m2

498-148247-D

Distance to other equipment

Do not move the Above Deck Unit closer to radars than the minimum safe distance specified in

section Interference from radar, GPS, L-band and other transmitters on page 3-13 – it may

cause damage to the Above Deck Unit.

Compass Safe Distance:

SAILOR 60 GX and SAILOR 60 GX High Power and GX-R2 4.5 W and 9.0 W Antenna (ADU): min.

140 cm (IEC 60945).

SAILOR 7016C Antenna Control Unit (ACU): min. 30 cm (IEC 60945).

Service

User access to the interior of the ACU is not allowed. Only a technician authorized by Cobham

SATCOM may perform service - failure to comply with this rule will void the warranty. Access to

the interior of the Above Deck Unit is allowed. Replacement of certain modules and general

service may only be performed by a technician authorized by Cobham SATCOM.

Grounding, cables and connections

To minimize shock hazard and to protect against lightning, you must connect the equipment

chassis and cabinet to an electrical ground. Ground the ACU to the ship. For further details see

Appendix B, Ground and RF protection.

Do not extend the cables beyond the lengths specified for the equipment. The cable between

the ACU and Above Deck Unit can be extended if it complies with the specified data

concerning cable losses etc.

Rx and Tx cables for the SAILOR 60 GX system are shielded and should not be affected by

magnetic fields. However, try to avoid running cables parallel to high power and AC/RF wiring as

this might cause malfunction of the equipment.

Power supply

SAILOR 7016C Antenna Control Unit: voltage range 100-240 VAC.

The ACU provides power for the Above Deck Unit.

Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere

Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any

electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.

Keep away from live circuits

Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Component replacement and internal

adjustment must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not replace components

with the power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even

with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power and discharge

circuits before touching them.

Failure to comply with the rules above will void the warranty!

After installation make this manual available to the user for further reference.
