Configuration of the SAILOR 100 GX
1.3.4
To set up blocking zones for dual antenna setup
It is recommended to define the following 3 types of blocking zones in each
SAILOR 100 GX system:
1.
Actual blocking zones on the vessel (No TX)
2.
Switching blocking zones (TX allowed), zones leading up to actual blocking
zones, allowing the system to switch antenna before any actual blocking is
encountered.
3.
Personnel safety zones (No TX), a type of blocking zone securing safe passage
without the risk of entering VSAT RF radiation.
1.3.5
To make an OTC for ADS systems
The entire system is now ready for operation.
1.
Turn on the GMU power.
The first time the GMU is turned on it will perform an OTC both on the Master
and the Slave antennas. During this process the GMU will restart several times
before pointing towards the satellite and establish the link.
2.
Be patient. The OTC procedure will take at least 16 minutes.
Interrupting the process before it has completed will cause the process
to restart.
3.
If for some reason you make a TX cable calibration again, the system will request
the operator to initiate a manual OTC procedure. You can start the OTC procedure
from the GMU dashboard.
