2.2.1 Service Activation Registration Form
Before using the SAILOR 3027 GMDSS Terminal on the Inmarsat C system you
must register the terminal to the system.
For this purpose, use the SARF (Service Activation Registration Form) supplied
with the SAILOR 3027. A copy of page 1 of the SARF is shown in the next page.
As a guide, some of the most important fields are filled in with red color.
The SARF for registration of Maritime MES (Mobile Earth Station - in this case
the SAILOR 3027) can also be found on
www.inmarsat.com/Support under
Activation
, including notes on how to complete the maritime form.
The Service Activation Registration Form contains different abbreviations that
are explained here.
The SAILOR 3027 must be registered at either a PSA company or directly to the
ISP. A PSA is a company handling the activation of Inmarsat mobiles and is
short for Point of Service Activation. ISP is the company that provides the
Inmarsat service and is short for Inmarsat Service Provider. In many cases the
PSA and ISP is the same company that also operates a Land Earth Station
(LES). The local PSA or ISP can be obtained by following the guidelines in the
registration form.
The Service Activation Registration Form also includes information needed to
find out how to pay the bill for the Inmarsat C service. This payment will be
made directly to the Accounting Authority. In many cases the Accounting
Authority (AA) is also the same company as the Inmarsat Service Provider
(ISP).
In addition to the general information like name, address, etc. the ISN of the
SAILOR 3027 must be specified. The ISN is found on the Delivery Note and on
the label in the bottom of the SAILOR 3027 GMDSS Terminal.
Note
In most cases the distributor registers the system for the customer.
