TT-3000LRIT Installation Manual
A TT-3026M is a complete Inmarsat mini-C transceiver with built-in
LNA/HPA and GPS electronics and an omni-directional antenna
designed to operate on vessels. The housing is sealed and contains no
user serviceable parts.
The TT-3026M is very compact and is designed to operate in a
corrosive environment, and in extreme weather conditions without any
service.
The TT-3026M is equipped with an 18-pole female connector and is
intended for pole mounting using the Opt. 101 or Opt. 103 Pole Mount
Kit. See section 3.1.1.
The TT-3026M has a built-in GPS module, capable of tracking up to
12 GPS satellites.
The TT-3026M is designed to operate when the satellite is visible over
the horizon and no signal path blockage is present.
The TT-3026M antenna has an elevation angel of -15° ensuring perfect
reception in sea area A3 (Inmarsat) even when the vessel has pitch and
roll movements due to rough weather.
The TT-3026M performs regular scanning of the Inmarsat satellite
network and will automatically perform ocean region changeover if an
ocean region is found with a stronger signal.
