SAILOR 800/900 INSTALLATION

ACU INTERFACES

 The ACU has the following interfaces and switch:

      N-connector for ADU cable (50 Ohm).

      2 x F connectors for Rx and Tx cables (75 Ohm) to VSAT modem.

      Multi connector for NMEA interfaces (for input from GPS compass or Gyro compass).

      RS-422 interface for modem control. • RS-232 interface for modem control.

      4 x LAN ports for VSAT modem control and user equipment (i.e. for SAILOR Fleet Broadband service communication line or WAN port for VSAT Internet).

      Power connector.

      On/Off power switch

    ACU has additionally a LAN connector at the front for accessing the service port from the ACU front panel.




 

To install the ADU

Make sure that there is sufficient space underneath the ADU to open the service hatch. Through this hatch you access the ADU modules for service and maintenance.

 

The ADU does not have to be aligned with the bow-to-stern line of the ship. When configuring the SAILOR 800/900 VSAT you make an azimuth calibration to obtain the correct azimuth of the ADU.

• It is important to maintain vertical orientation of the ADU center line.

• Consider the aspect of interference.

• Install the ADU where vibrations are limited to a minimum.

• Always use all 4 bolts when installing the ADU.

 


To install the ADU, do as follows:

      Install the mast with the mast flange and have the 4 M12 bolts ready.

      Undo all shipping buckles, take off the wooden top and remove the casing.

      Unscrew the 4 bolts holding the ADU on the wooden platform.

      Attach a webbed, four-part sling with a belt to all 4 lifting brackets.
