Installation Manual
4. Commissioning of the
equipment
4.1 Introduction
Before the TT-3020B Capsat Transceiver is allowed to participate in the Inmarsat-C
System, a commissioning procedure is required.
The commissioning procedure is just a the very first Link Test (or Performance
Verification Test in Inmarsat terminology) that the Transceiver performs.
The Link Test automatically verifies that the TT-3020B Capsat Transceiver is capable of
both receiving and transmitting information according to Inmarsat-C specifications. No
other tests are required.
The Inmarsat Mobile Number is needed to run the Link Test.
When a new unit is being installed, it is the responsibility of the service technician to
verify that the unit is functioning properly, and that the unit is commissioned and logged
into the Inmarsat-C System, at the end of installation.
When you power on the Transceiver for the very first time, it will automatically perform
a login. When the Inmarsat-C System sees this login, it will start a Link Test (or
commissioning procedure) after a short period of time.
Keep your equipment turned on and wait until the Link Test is finished before using the
equipment for communications.
You should not attempt to start a Link Test yourself as you have only three
commissioning attempts, and these will be used up if you are not cautious.
