<strong>TT</strong>-<strong>3020B</strong><br />

Capsat Transceiver<br />

<strong>Installation</strong> <strong>Manual</strong><br />

2.9 <strong>TT</strong>-3042B Remote Alarm<br />

The <strong>TT</strong>-3042B Remote Alarm is connected to the <strong>TT</strong>-<strong>3020B</strong> by means of the Transceivers<br />

X5 T-Bus connector. Ple<strong>as</strong>e refer to section 2.5.3.<br />

Figure 13: Remote Alarm with printer.<br />

The <strong>TT</strong>-3042B Remote Alarm is intended for GMDSS installations.<br />

The <strong>TT</strong>-3042B can all the same be used to print out SafetyNet EGC messages, via the<br />

built-in thermal printer and indicate reception of EGC messages in general.<br />

The <strong>TT</strong>-<strong>3020B</strong> Transceiver can accomodate up to 8 Remote Alarms at the same time, but<br />

each alarm must have it's own unique T-Bus address in the range 0-7.<br />

If more than one <strong>TT</strong>-3042B Remote Alarm is connected, the printer of the Remote Alarm<br />

with the lowest address (first in the list of Remote Alarms seen with the ru -l command)<br />

will be used <strong>as</strong> the default printer, where<strong>as</strong> the other printers will be back-up printers<br />

in c<strong>as</strong>e the first printer runs out of paper or h<strong>as</strong> a malfunction.<br />

If you do not connect a printer at the Transceiver, it will use the Remote Alarm printer<br />

instead, but it is also possible to configure the Transceiver to use the Remote Alarm<br />

printer always even if a Transceiver printer is available. Further you can select different<br />

types of messages to go to either (or both) of the two printer types.<br />

The Remote Alarm address is selected with a DIP Switch array inside Paper Bay of the<br />

<strong>TT</strong>-3042B. Ple<strong>as</strong>e refer to the <strong>TT</strong>-3042B Remote Alarm Reference <strong>Manual</strong> for detailed<br />

information. The address selected for a Remote Alarm must not conflict with any other<br />

Remote Alarm connected to the same <strong>TT</strong>-<strong>3020B</strong> Capsat Transceiver.<br />

If you enter the Capsat Program's Terminal mode and type the command ru -l you will<br />

see a list of the currently attached remote units and their addresses. In this way you will<br />

be able to select unique addresses for all devices to be connected.<br />

2.10 Built-in GPS (optional)<br />

GPS means Global Positioning System.<br />
