2. WARNINGS
2.1 Radiation
During transmission this system can radiate microwave power from the antenna unit in any direction. High levels of radio frequency radiation are considered harmful to health. Although all countries have not agreed upon a single value, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999) recommends that any person in a controlled environment should not be exposed to radiation stronger than 5 mW/cm2 at the frequencies used in this system. Accordingly, the operator of the system should ensure that no person should approach within 6.6 feet (2 metres) of the antenna when the system is transmitting, unless adequate screening is provided. Despite this warning, specific system configurations may have longer unsafe distances.
2.2 Power Cable Installation

Care should be taken when modifying the power supply system of the aircraft to support the installation. All power cables should be correctly insulated and installed in accordance with normal aircraft safety notices. Failure to correctly install power cables could lead to injury or death.
2.3 System Cable Installation

Care should be taken when planning the routing of cables to and from the system. The installation of these cables must not interfere with existing aircraft systems or make future interference a possibility. All cables must be correctly secured and insulated.
2.4 Hardware Installation

The installation of the system hardware must not compromise the safety or integrity of the aircraft structure. Care must be taken to prevent any changes to vital aircraft components or structures when installing this system.
3. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
3.1 Overview
The Inmarsat Swift 64 Aeronautical Satcom System enables an extensive variety of communications links between aircraft and global networks, including telephone, fax, e-mail, Internet, video and private data networks. On the aircraft, user equipment (telephones, fax machines and computers) connects to the Swift 64 High Speed Data (HSD) system. The HSD system makes use of Inmarsat satellites and the Inmarsat satellite ground stations and systems to connect to the public terrestrial data networks that form the backbone of the global data and telephone networks.
Figure 1: The Inmarsat Aeronautical Satcom System
3.2 Satellite Communication System 3.2.1 Satellite Constellation

The Inmarsat Swift64 HSD Service is provided via four geostationary satellites. The satellites, named after the area or footprint, that they cover, are: Indian Ocean Region (IOR) Pacific Ocean Region (POR) Atlantic Ocean Region - East (AOR-E) Atlantic Ocean Region - West (AOR-W)
The footprint of each satellite is made up of two types of coverage beams, a Global Beam and a number of Spot Beams that allow higher data rates. The spot beam and global beam coverage of the satellites are shown Figure 2. The spot beams are shown as shaded areas. The Swift64 (HSD)
Swift64 HSD System Installation and Maintenance Manual service only operates within the spot beams. The basic speech service is available throughout the global beam footprint.
Figure 2: Inmarsat Coverage Map
3.2.2 Land Earth Station (LES)

The gateway between the Inmarsat satellites and the public terrestrial telecommunications networks is known as a Land Earth Station, or LES. All traffic, data and voice, enters and leaves the Inmarsat network through the LESs. LESs are owned and operated by national telecommunications operators and other authorised telecommunications organisations. The LESs are responsible for commissioning and billing and they vary in rates charged, services supported and the Ocean Region(s) in which they operate.
3.2.3 Network Control Station (NCS)

The NCS controls call set-up. The NCS controls items such as initial transmit power and transmit and receive frequencies. The NCS functionality typically operates from a LES under contract to Inmarsat.
3.2.4 Network Operations Centre (NOC)

The NOC at Inmarsats headquarters in London performs constant co-ordination of the Inmarsat network. The NOC maintains contact via dedicated satellite and terrestrial links with the NCS and LESs in all Ocean Regions.
3.2.5 Aeronautical Earth Station (AES)

The airborne components of the system, operating together as a single system in an aircraft is known as an Aeronautical Earth Station (AES) in Inmarsat terminology. The basic components of the AES include: A High Gain Antenna (HGA) A High Power Amplifier (HPA) for transmission A Diplexer/Low Noise Amplifier (DLNA) that separates receive and transmit RF signals and amplifies the receive signal from the antenna. A Satellite Data Unit (SDU) including modems, system control processors and user interfaces. A data link to the aircrafts navigation system or a Satcom Reference Unit (SRU). The navigation system may be an Inertial Reference System (IRS) or an Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS). An SRU provides the same navigation data as an IRS but is dedicated to the AES and independent of the navigation systems of the aircraft. User equipment such as telephones, fax machines and personal computers.
Figure 3: Typical Aeronautical Earth Station (AES)
3.3 AES Components and Configuration Options

The heart of the Chelton Satcom Swift64 HSD system, and the scope of this manual, is the Satellite Data Unit (SDU-7300) and the High Power Amplifier (HPA-7400). These devices can be used with any compatible antenna and other components to build either a dual channel or four channel satellite communication system.
3.3.1 The Satellite Data Unit (SDU)
Figure 4: Chelton Satcom SDU-7300 Satellite Data Unit The Chelton SDU-7300 Satellite Data Unit (SDU) provides the main modem and control functionality of the AES. The SDU contains two modems for dual channel operation. The SDU provides the following interfaces to user equipment: 4 x 10BaseT Ethernet ports (10 Mbps twisted pair) 8 x ISDN (parallel) Serial Data (RS422 or RS232) The SDU consists of a number of distinct sub-systems: Master (Primary) Modem Unit Board (MUB-M) Slave (Secondary) Modem Unit Board (MUB-S) Ethernet Router Board (ERB) Beam Steering Board (BSB) Combiner Splitter Board (CSB) The modems implement the protocols required to interface and connect to the satellite network. They interact with the Inmarsat network selecting satellites, spot beams, channels, frequencies, transmit power and signal modulation schemes. The maximum capacity of each modem is one 64 kbps channel. The modems present data as a stream of bits. This is adequate for circuit-switched devices that use simple bit streams such as voice telephones. The ISDN and serial ports of the SDU are routed directly to the MUBs. PC network connections however require further packaging of the data, and for this the ERB is provided. The ERB is a TCP/IP router operating on a Linux core. The ERB implements the required protocols to connect the SDU directly to a TCP/IP computer network and it acts as an Internet gateway. The BSB is responsible for steering the antenna. It receives aircraft navigation data and determines the directions in which the HGA should be pointed. The BSB contains a GPS receiver.
The CSB combines the transmitted RF signal from each modem so that only one antenna, HPA and DLNA are required. Similarly, it splits the received RF signal to each modem for demodulation.
Reset Button Configuration Module Slot SIM Card Slot Maintenance Port
Figure 5: SDU-7300 front panel shown with hatch closed and open. A second SDU (slave) can be added on to a primary (master) SDU for 4-channel operation for higher data throughput, allowing, for example, up to 256 kbps on the Ethernet interface. In a 4channel configuration two SDUs share a single DLNA, HPA and HGA (connected to the master SDU). The interconnection between the primary and the secondary SDU consists of control signal wires and a single coaxial connection. The slave SDU must be installed adjacent to the master SDU. Configuration of an SDU as master or slave, is determined by a configuration pin on the SDU mounting tray. The master and slave SDUs are identical and interchangeable. However, to maintain the configuration settings entered during system installation, the configuration modules must remain in the correct trays. The configuration module that was in the master SDU during system installation must always remain with the master tray, and similarly, the configuration module in the slave SDU must remain with the slave tray. Refer to Appendix A for the technical specifications of the SDU-7300.
3.3.2 Configuration Module (CM)
Figure 6: Configuration Module The Configuration Module (CM) plugs into the SDU, behind the front panel hatch. All the configuration and installation data related to the specific installation is stored on the CM. This includes the commissioning and Satcom network data that uniquely identify the system as well as all of the data values associated with the installation tasks performed using the PC support program. IMPORTANT: If an SDU is replaced, the CM should remain on the aircraft and be inserted into the new SDU. This ensures that the identification and installation parameters remain unchanged and that the system will not require any additional re-commissioning nor reconfiguration. IMPORTANT: If the system is to be 4-channel (256K), then both configuration modules must be commissioned as such. In a 4-channel configuration with master and slave SDUs, each SDU contains its own CM. The installation specific data is stored on the CM of the master SDU (which is connected to the HPA, DLNA and HGA). The CM of the slave SDU only contains the system identification data of the slave. It is therefore important that each CM remains in its corresponding tray when either SDU is replaced. For this purpose it is recommended that the master CM and master SDU tray is marked accordingly, and similarly for the slave CM and slave SDU tray.
3.3.3 High Power Amplifier (HPA)
Figure 7: Chelton Satcom HPA-7400 High Power Amplifier The HPA-7400 High Power Amplifier is a linear RF power amplifier. It amplifies the transmit RF signal generated by the SDU-7300 to the correct power level to communicate to the satellite. The HPA supports multi-channel operation for up to 256 kbps data rates. Secondary functions of the HPA include providing regulated +28 VDC power to the high gain antenna via the SDU and monitoring the DLNA. The HPA must be installed in a 2MCU ARINC 600 compatible tray, close to the antenna and DLNA. The HPA may be installed in a non-temperature controlled, non-pressurized environment. Refer to Appendix A for the technical specifications of the HPA-7400.
3.3.4 High Gain Antennas (HGA)

This system can be installed with any of the following antennas: Chelton Satcom HGA-6000, a mechanically steered tail mount ARINC 741 compatible HGA, with optional RF input from an external active GPS antenna.
Figure 8: Chelton Satcom HGA-6000 Chelton Satcom HGA-7000, a low profile phased array fuselage mount HGA with active GPS antenna
Figure 9: Chelton Satcom HGA-7000 Chelton Satcom HGA-8000, a low profile disc shaped phased array HGA with active GPS antenna designed for mounting on C130 hatches
Figure 10: Chelton Satcom HGA-8000 Any other ARINC 741 compatible HGA
The significance of the GPS antenna integrated into some HGAs is that the SDU requires aircraft position and speed data for antenna steering and Doppler frequency shift compensation. Position and speed data may be provided by an IRS or any other GPS based system capable of generating equivalent ARINC 429 data. Alternatively the GPS receiver within the SDU may be used, but for this option the SDU requires a GPS RF signal from an active GPS antenna, which may be either a standalone GPS antenna or the integrated GPS antenna in the HGA-7000 and HGA-8000.

3.3.5 Diplexer/Low Noise Amplifier (DLNA)

The system requires a Chelton Satcom supplied DAU-7050 DLNA to separate the received and transmit RF signals and to amplify the received signal. The DLNA may be installed in a non-temperature controlled, non-pressurized environment. The DLNA must be installed as close to the HGA as possible.
Figure 11: Chelton Satcom Supplied DAU-7050 Diplexer/Low Noise Amplifier The status of the DLNA is monitored by the HPA. Refer to Appendix A for the technical specifications of the DAU-7050.
3.3.6 Navigation Data Sources

There are three possible sources of aircraft attitude data to the SDU: Aircraft Inertial Reference System (IRS). Aircraft Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS). Chelton Satcom SRU-7200 Satcom Reference Unit (SRU). There are three possible sources of aircraft position and velocity data to the SDU: Aircraft IRS. Aircraft GPS receiver with ARINC 743A compatible data output on an ARINC 429 interface. GPS receiver internal to the SDU, requiring a GPS RF signal from an active GPS antenna. 3.3.6.1 Using SRU-7200 Data The SRU and SDU have been specifically designed to work together, and all the navigation data required by the SDU is provided by the SRU. The SRU uses data from the GPS receiver internal to the SDU. The SDU therefore requires a GPS RF signal from an active GPS antenna when the SRU is used.
Figure 12: Chelton Satcom SRU-7200 Satcom Reference Unit 3.3.6.2 Using IRS Data The SDU requires the following ARINC 429 data labels from an IRS to steer the antenna: 310 Present Position - Latitude 311 Present Position - Longitude 324 Pitch Angle 325 Roll Angle 314 True Heading The antenna steering performance will be improved if the following data labels are also present: 336 Pitch Attitude Rate 337 Roll Attitude Rate 361 Inertial Altitude In addition the IRS must output at least one of the following pairs of velocity labels to determine Doppler Shift: 366 North-South Velocity 367 East-West Velocity or 312 Ground Speed 313 Track Angle True If an IRS is used then the SDU does not require GPS RF signal from an active GPS antenna. 3.3.6.3 Using AHRS Data The SDU requires the following ARINC 429 data labels from an AHRS to steer the antenna: 324 325 320 Pitch Angle Roll Angle Magnetic Heading
Again the antenna steering performance will be improved if the following attitude rates are present: 336 Pitch Attitude Rate 337 Roll Attitude Rate
Swift64 HSD System Installation and Maintenance Manual An AHRS must either be used in combination with an ARINC 743A compatible GPS receiver system, or in combination with the GPS receiver internal to the SDU to obtain the position and speed data required by the SDU. 3.3.6.4 Using ARINC 429 Data All of the above ARINC 429 data labels must comply with every aspect of ARINC Specification 429P1-15, ARINC Characteristic 704-7 and ARINC Characteristic 705-5. Please consult Chelton Satcom if the devices available do not meet the specification. The system may still perform adequately even if the accuracy and number of output words per second is less than required by the specification.

3.4 Voice and Data Services

The following services are supported by the Inmarsat satellite and LES network and are packaged by the SDU as voice and data services to the user equipment.
3.4.1 4.8 kbps Voice

4.8 kbps Voice is a low cost voice telephony service offered by Inmarsat. The service is commonly referred to as Mini-M telephony. This service is available to ISDN voice terminals connected to the SDU.
3.4.2 64 kbps Speech

The 64 kbps Speech service supports high quality telephony primarily between ISDN telephones. It may also be used to support an analogue telephone connected to the SDU using an ISDN Terminal Adaptor. This service is typically used where high quality audio is required for broadcast purposes and is not normally the default voice service. This service is made available by the SDU on the ISDN ports.
3.4.3 64 kbps UDI/ISDN

The 64 kbps Unrestricted Digital Information (UDI) service supports data applications at 64 kbps between Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) terminals using ISDN protocols such as V.120, X.75 and PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) and it also supports Ethernet standard data protocols. It supports any 64 kbps data stream and is the service used for ISDN applications such as Group4 fax, video-conferencing, LAN-routing, File Transfer, and secure telephony. The 64 kbps UDI service can be used to carry the data associated with devices connected to the Ethernet, ISDN or serial ports of the SDU.
3.4.4 64 kbps 3.1kHz Audio

The 64 kbps 3.1 kHz Audio service supports connections between analogue devices commonly used over the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Such devices may include voice-band data modems such as V.34 operating at speeds up to 33.6 kbps with V.42 and V.42bis, Group 3 fax machines at speeds up to 14.4 kbps and secure telephone systems such as STU-III, STU-IIB and STE. Attaching the analogue device to the SDU via an ISDN Terminal Adaptor allows access to this service. Only devices connected to the ISDN ports can make use of this service.
3.4.5 56 kbps Data

The 56 kbps data service supports connections to terminals in Switched 56 kbps Networks, which are found primarily in North America. This service is supported by V.110 rate adaptation from 64 kbps to 56 kbps. Only devices connected to the ISDN ports can make use of this service.
3.4.6 Mobile Packet Data Service (MPDS)

The Mobile Packet Data Service offers an always on packet-switched, 64 kbps shared access channel. The service is suitable for a wide range of IP-based applications such as corporate LAN access, WWW Internet browsing, on-line weather reports and e-mail.
Swift64 HSD System Installation and Maintenance Manual MPDS can be used by devices connected to the Ethernet, ISDN and serial ports of the SDU. Unlike all of the other services, the call costing for MPDS is based on the amount of data transferred, measured in bytes, and not on connection time.
3.4.7 Service Combinations

A single SDU has two channels to support two simultaneous calls. For four channels, two SDUs can be combined in a master/slave configuration to support four simultaneous calls. In a four channel system, only the user interfaces of the master SDU are used (with the exception of the serial interface). The two B channels of the ISDN port have access to the two channels of the master SDU, while the four Ethernet ports have access to all four available channels. The Ethernet Router of the master SDU can be configured to use any combination of the four available channels for data throughput from 64 kbps up to 256 kbps, provided that the Internet Service Provider Supports Multi-link PPP. The router automatically set-up calls based on the IP address being requested by a user on the LAN, and additional calls are made or terminated based on bandwidth utilisation. Each channel can further be configured to allow for the interruption of data calls by outgoing speech calls. Only a single MPDS call is possible, as multiple MPDS calls do not result in higher data-throughput as more than one call will time-share the same 64 kbps bearer channel. Interruption of the MPDS service by incoming voice calls is user selectable. The Ethernet Router does not allow simultaneous MPDS and 64k UDI calls to access the Internet. Possible mappings between user interfaces and channels are further described in Section 3.4.8.
3.4.8 User Interface to Channel Mappings

Each User Port needs to have service and user equipment mappings setup at installation.
Figure 13: User Interface to Logical Channel & Billing Channel Mappings Document: 802-10-0002_IM issue IR COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL Page 25 of 90
Swift64 HSD System Installation and Maintenance Manual 3.4.8.1 ISDN Port User Equipment Mappings Several ISDN devices may be connected to a single SDU, and each of them must have a different Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN). The MSNs must all be configured on the SDU and linked to a particular Inmarsat Service (using the PC based install program) and the MSNs must also be set on the ISDN devices. Refer to the documentation or supplier of each ISDN device for instructions on setting up its MSNs. ISDN audio devices can be configured to be either high quality or low quality. If high quality is required then the device should be mapped to the Inmarsat 64 kbps Speech Service. A Swift64 Channel will then be used to place the call, and the call will be billed accordingly. This mapping is illustrated below:
Figure 14: ISDN High Quality Voice Channel Mappings
If the cheaper low quality voice service is preferred then the device should be mapped to the Inmarsat Mini-M Voice Service, as shown below, and calls will then be placed using Inmarsat Mini-M Channels.

On many ISDN voice handsets it is very easy to switch between the high and low quality options and the user may only decide on what service to use just before dialling. Such devices will generally allow two MSN numbers to be configured, and each will be associated with a different quality option. Both MSN numbers must then be appropriately configured on the SDU.
3.4.8.2 Ethernet Port User Equipment Mappings The Ethernet Router in the SDU can be configured to route Ethernet traffic through either a 64/56 kbps UDI Data Channel or the MPDS Data Channel. This choice is made during system configuration based on the data applications expected to be used. For high volume traffic it is best to use one or more 64/56 kbps UDI Channels, and for low volume traffic it is best to use the MPDS Channel.
Figure 16: MPDS Data Call Channel Mappings
Figure 17: 64 kbps UDI Data Call Channel Mappings
3.5 PC based Installation and Support Software

Installation, configuration, fault-finding and system management tasks are supported by a PC program, called the System Support PC Program. This program is distributed as a single executable file: Chelton_Satcom_HSD128_System_Support.exe
Figure 18: Main Screen for System Support PC Program The program runs under any version of windows and can be executed from any directory or folder. The program does however need to run from a drive where it has write access as it produces result files and log files and it remembers user selections that have to be written to disk. The PC running the program must be connected with a serial cable to the maintenance port of the master SDU. A straight through serial cable is required, that is pin 2 on the PC must be connected to pin 2 on the SDU, pin 3 to pin 3, and pin 5 to pin 5. NOTE: The maintenance port of the slave SDU in a four channel system, is not functional. The program is an easy to use step-by-step wizard with simple on-screen instructions and extensive explanations for all of the data entries. It is possible to run the program without connecting the computer to an SDU system in order to learn the basic operation and look-and-feel of the program. In the event of any difficulties, the log files produced by the program may be e-mailed to Chelton Satcom for further technical support.
4. INSTALLATION OVERVIEW AND PLANNING

4.1 Antenna Alignment
The alignment of the antenna relative to the aircraft must be accurately determined and recorded and then later entered into the system using the Support PC Program. It is recommended that these angles be measured before the antenna is mounted on its adaptor plate as it may be difficult to measure these angles once the antenna is in place.
4.2 Coax Cable Losses

IThe coax cable losses between the antenna and the DLNA and between the DLNA and the HPA must be kept to a minimum. This is one of the most important factors to consider when planning the installation. The coax cable losses are minimised by having a short physical separation between the units and by using low-loss cables. The minimum and maximum cable losses allowed by the system are defined in Table 4.1.
Cable/Device HPA-SDU DLNA-HPA DLNA (Tx-Path) HGA-DLNA DLNA-SDU SDU-SDU Link Min dB 0.1 0.1 0.3 0.1 0.1 0.1 Max dB 15.0 2.0 0.9 2.0 15.0 0.5
Table 4.1: RF coax cable loss limits.
A further constraint is that the combined loss of the DLNA, DLNA-HPA cable and the HGADLNA cable must be less than or equal to 2.5 dB as shown in Figure 19.
HGA
DLNA-ANT 0.1-2.0 dB
Note: GPS Options not shown
HPA-HGA Max 2.5 dB
DLNA
RX 0.1-15 dB
HPA Output 0.1-2.0 dB
HPA
HPA Input 0.1-15 dB
SDU Primary (Master)
L-Band Link 0.1-0.5 dB
SDU Secondary (Slave)
Figure 19: RF Coax Cable Losses
The advantages of low coax cable losses are: Better data throughput near edge of coverage. Larger coverage area where two channel operation is possible Lower power consumption
Higher cable losses, provided they are within the specified ranges, will not result in degraded system performance (i.e. reduced data rates or number of simultaneous connections). However towards the edges of the satellite footprint lower cable losses will allow the system to sustain better performance over larger areas of the footprint. The coax cable losses between the SDU and HPA and between the SDU and DLNA do not have any significant effect on system performance, provided the losses are within specifications.
The cable losses must be manually entered during system installation using the PC Program.
4.3 HPA
The HPA is mounted in a 2-MCU ARINC 600 Tray. The tray is a standard LRU Short Length Tray with forced cooling requirements. The installation must provide forced ventilation through the HPA to sustain airflow at a rate of at least 130 m3/h (76.5 CFM) where the flow resistance is 80 Pa (0.0116 PSI). Chelton Satcom provides a device to support this requirement: the HPA-7400 Airflow Supply Module. This device can be mounted under a 2-MCU Standard Length ARINC 600 Tray, as shown in Figure 22. The tray should be located away from any obstructions that may restrict the airflow required for cooling. The HPA must be installed appropriately to ensure that the DO-160D environmental limits for the unit are not exceeded.
4.4 SDU
The SDU is mounted in a 3-MCU ARINC 600 Tray as shown in Figure 23. The tray is a standard LRU Short Length Tray with no forced cooling requirements. The SDU must be in installed appropriately to ensure that the DO-160D environmental limits for the unit are not exceeded. If two SDUs are installed then they must be mounted side-by-side with minimum distance between them.
4.5 SRU
The SDU requires the position of the aircraft for antenna steering. This can be provided by the Aircraft IRS or by a Satellite Reference Unit (SRU) and a GPS receiver. To use the GPS receiver internal to the SDU, a GPS signal must be provided to the SDU. This can be from an HGA with built in active GPS antenna (e.g. HGA-7000, HGA-8000, or HGA-6000 with external GPS antenna) or from an external active GPS antenna. Alternatively the aircraft position can be obtained from an ARINC 743A compatible GPS receiver. These different options are summarised in the following table.

HGA and active GPS antenna configuration Attitude Sensor SRU or AHRS IRS HGA with built in active GPS antenna Internal GPS receiver A741 HGA only External GPS receiver A741 HGA and additional active GPS antenna Internal GPS receiver
IRS provides position data, no additional GPS data required
Table 4.2: Source of aircraft position data for different combinations of attitude sensors and antennas
4.6 DLNA Chelton SATCOM Proprietary Data Do Not Reproduce or Disclose Without Written Permission
The DLNA should be mounted as close to the antenna as possible, and can be located in an unpressurised, un-heated environment. The DO-160D environmental limits for the unit must not be exceeded. The DLNA should be connected to the same circuit breaker as the HPA.
4.7 ISDN Terminal Equipment

Up to eight ISDN terminal equipment devices may be connected in parallel. The maximum allowed power consumption of all of the ISDN terminal equipment devices, combined, is 10W. The maximum ISDN bus length is 100 meters, (using AWG-22 wire size). Wiring for multiple ISDN terminal equipment must be made in a daisy-chain cable routing configuration rather than a star-configuration. If the total length of the ISDN bus is more than 10 meters then the last socket must be terminated with two 100 Ohm resistors: one resistor between Rx+ and Rx- (RJ-45 pins 3 and 6) and one resistor between Tx+ and Tx- (RJ-45 pins 4 and 5).
4.8 Installation Tools

The following tables list details of special tools, components and equipment that may be required for the installation; however these may be substituted by equivalent products from other manufacturers. Table 4.3: Tools required for SDU and HPA Installation

6. ELECTRICAL
6.1 General Electrical Requirements
#24 AWG wire can be used for all wires excluding power lines and RF cables, unless specified otherwise. For power lines connected to the SDU and HPA the wire sizes should be chosen according to the requirements in Table 4.4. However, the installer is responsible for determining the appropriate wire size to complement the length of the cable run to ensure that the specified maximum cable losses do not exceed those indicated in this manual. Keep the interconnect cables away from circuits carrying heavy currents, pulse transmitting equipment and any other potential sources of interference. Use shielded twisted-pair wiring for all balanced connections (RS-422, Ethernet, ISDN and ARINC-429). The characteristic impedance of shielded twisted-pair cables must be 100 Ohm nominal. Connect shield grounds to the chassis pins provided in the connectors. The characteristic impedance of coax cables must be 50 Ohm.
6.2 Power Supply Routing

The SDU and HPA are powered independently by the +28 Vdc power supply of the aircraft. Each power line must have appropriate circuit breaker protection. The DLNA and the HPA must be powered from the same circuit breaker. In some configurations the HPA provides power for the HGA. Refer to the wiring diagrams and Figure 24 below. HGA power is routed from the HPA via co-axial cable to the SDU, through SDU power conditioning circuitry and then out on SDU BP9. The conditioned power on SDU BP9 must be connected to SDU BP5 to supply power on the antenna coaxial cable. Power to Chelton HGA-7000 and HGA-8000 antennas must be routed from the HPA via the SDU, as the HPA and SDU provides the necessary power conditioning required by these antennas. In a 4-channel configuration the two SDUs must be wired to the same circuit breaker.

7. SERVICE ACTIVATION
Service activation is the process whereby a service provider (an LES operator) registers the AES with the Inmarsat satellite network system. Each channel of a dual channel or four channel HSD system must be individually activated. For this reason, the two Inmarsat Serial Numbers (ISNs) located on the Configuration Module of each SDU must be recorded and used on one application form each. For a four channel system a total of four ISNs are therefore used. After service activation the service provider will supply the following data that will be used to complete the installation process: Telephone numbers for incoming calls (Inmarsat Mobile Numbers (IMNs)) ISDN Terminal IDs, which are used for multiple ISDN Terminals.
For more details please contact your service provider or Inmarsat Customer Care: www.inmarsat.com +44 (0) 20 7728 1000 or
8. CONFIGURATION USING PC PROGRAM

After the HSD system is installed on an aircraft and before it can be used for the first time several settings and internal parameters must be configured on the SDU. This is done with the System Support PC Program. Installation data is grouped into five related sets. The same basic procedure is used for each of the five sets of installation data. Run the PC program and select Execute the installation procedures. Choose from the list of Installation Tasks and follow the step-by-step instructions. Each set of data must first be downloaded from the SDU into the computer. The program then disconnects from the SDU and guides the editing of the data parameters. The connection to the SDU is then re-established and the data is uploaded to the SDU. The data transfers may take anything from a few seconds to a couple of minutes.
Figure 34: Example installation screen of System Support PC Program If the download step is skipped but the upload of new parameters to the SDU is executed then the original settings of the data values in the SDU may be lost. This can be done purposely to reload the SDU with default settings.
8.1 Antenna Alignment

The alignment of the antenna with respect to the aircraft must be accurately determined and entered into the system. The required accuracy for all angles is 0.25 deg.
Orientation Label
Figure 35: HGA-7000 Index Marks for Antenna Alignment The index marks used to describe the orientation of the HGA-7000 is shown in Figure 35, the nominal front of the HGA corresponds to the A direction. If other antennas are used then it is recommended that temporary index marks be made on the antennas to indicate the A-B-C-D directions. After the antenna has been mounted, the System Support PC program will prompt the installer to provide input to the following questions: What is the azimuth angle of a line drawn between index marks A and C, relative to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft? Range: 0 to 90 deg Which of Sides A or C is closer to the aircraft nose? (Any side can be selected if they are equally close). Is Side A on the port or starboard side of C? (Any side may be selected if line AC is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft). What is the elevation angle as measured with an electronic spirit level of a line drawn between index marks A and C? Range: 0 to 45 deg. Is Side A higher or lower than Side C? (If both A and C are at the same level, then either may be selected) What is the elevation angle as measured with an electronic spirit level of a line drawn between index marks B and D? Range: 0 to 45 deg. Is Side B higher or lower than Side D?
What is the roll attitude of the aircraft when parked on the runway, as measured by the aircraft attitude reference system (AHRS, IRS or the Chelton SRU)? The roll angle is positive when the port wing is higher than the starboard wing, and negative otherwise. What is the pitch attitude of the aircraft when parked on the runway, as measured by the aircraft attitude reference system (AHRS, IRS or the Chelton SRU)? The pitch angle is positive if the nose points up and negative otherwise.
NOTE: Antenna alignment must not be configured and stored in both the antenna and the SDU, as both devices will then compensate for alignment. In the case of the Chelton Satcom HGA-6000, HGA7000 or HGA-8000 any installation angles stored in the antenna will be cleared automatically by the SDU. In the case of any other antenna it is important to ensure that installation angles are only configured in either the SDU or in the antenna.
8.2 RF Cable Loss Calibration

The losses in the RF cables and DLNA at 1.5GHz must be determined to an accuracy of 0.1 dB and entered into the system. The cable loss limits are defined in Section 4.2.
8.3 Service Provider Options

The SDU must be configured to use the correct service provider in each region and the PPP data link settings for the service provider. These settings comprise the third of the five sets of installation data. NOTE: The default PPP settings when using Inmarsat as Internet service provider are: Dial-up number: 28 Username: Any string Password: None (empty string).
8.4 Setting up Terminal Devices

The fourth set of installation data defines the configuration of all the devices connected to the SDU, such as ISDN telephone handsets, faxes and computers. Each of the ISDN devices must be listed in the configuration data set. Select the service that the device supports and make sure that the device and the SDU are using compatible protocols. More details are provided in Section 9. Computers that connect to the SDU by means of Ethernet and TCP/IP do not have to be individually registered in the SDU. The SDU (or more specifically the Ethernet Router) has the IP address 192.168.1.1 and can run the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) service to allocate IP addresses to all other computers connected to the SDU via Ethernet. DHCP is a standard service that conventionally runs on at least one file server on every TCP/IP Local Area Network. An IP address is a four-part number that uniquely identifies every computer in the TCP/IP network. User computers on the Ethernet LAN must be configured to use the DHCP service to obtain their IP addresses automatically as shown in Section 9.
8.5 Advanced Call Management

This final set of installation data allows systems to be optimised for data throughput and connection convenience versus cost, and other advanced settings such as enabling or disabling the pre-emption of data calls by speech calls. All of the call management settings are described in detail by the on-screen information of the PC program. The programs on-screen information describes in detail all of the settings used for call management. The differences between the two types of communication methods are expanded in the table below:
MPDS 64 kbps SCPC Single Channel Per Carrier Service Connection only valid while call is in progress Circuit switched connection Cost based on connection time Pay per second Every connection is allocated a unique channel for exclusive use of that connection only. 64 kbps of data per channel. Can be used on two channels for 128 kbps. Suitable for large data transfers such as file download, video and speech.
Mobile Packet Data Service Permanent connection Packet mode data connection Cost based on amount of data Pay per bit Several different subscribers using different systems within the same spot beam area may at times share the use of a common channel. Up to 64 kbps maximum per system, often much less. Only on one channel Suitable for irregular data transfers in small packets spread over long periods of time, such as email and unhurried Internet browsing. Can be interrupted by incoming speech calls Ethernet data only
Can be interrupted by outgoing speech calls Ethernet data as well as ISDN data, voice and fax
Table 8.1: Differences between MPDS and 64 kbps SCPC Channels
8.6 Monitoring System Activity

While the system is in use the System Support PC Program may be used to monitor system activity. Used in this manner the program will simply display a summary of the data connections and calls in progress and the status of the various sub-systems without interfering with the system.
8.7 Retrieving Call Records

The SDU can store details of the last 100 calls made on each channel. These records can be retrieved by the PC program and, if required, saved to a text file. The records stored with the SDU will then be cleared to make space for recording details of the next 100 calls, or until the call records are again downloaded from the SDU. The recording of call details may be disabled, or restricted to outgoing calls only, or enabled for incoming and outgoing calls. This setting is made in the Advanced call management section of the installation procedure (refer to section 8.5)
8.8 Diagnostics Test on an Installed System

The System Support PC Program has an option to Run diagnostic tests on an installed system. This process will execute the BIT of all of the sub-systems and record in a text file full details of all of the BIT results, records of past failures and warnings, serial numbers and version data, various measurements and other information that will be useful for fault finding. The diagnostic test should ideally be made after an attempt has been made to place a call and not immediately after the system has been reset. The diagnostic test cannot be run while a call is in progress. The resulting text file should be emailed to Chelton Satcom for interpretation.
9. SETTING-UP USER EQUIPMENT

9.1 ISDN Terminals
ISDN terminals including telephone handsets, fax machines, cordless telephone base-stations and video phones should all have some menu or configuration procedure to set the following features:
9.1.1 ISDN Protocol

This may be Euro ISDN or NT1 and must be the same as the setting chosen for the SDU using the System Support PC Program. All ISDN devices connected to the system must use the same protocol. If in doubt use the more widely supported Euro ISDN option.
9.1.2 Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN)

MSNs must be configured on each ISDN Terminal. A separate MSN must be configured for each service to be accessed by the terminal as shown in Figure 36. These must match the settings configured in the SDU using the System Support PC Program.
9.1.3 Terminal ID
The Terminal ID number should be allocated by the service provider when the system is commissioned. If not allocated refer to Table 9.1 for the standard Inmarsat range of IDs for each service. These should then be configured in the SDU using the System Support PC Program.
Range of Terminal IDs (Hexadecimal) 01 0F 51 5F 61 6F 71 7F 91 9F Service Mini-M Voice 4.8 kbps 64k Data 3.1 kHz Audio 56 k Data 64 k Speech

Figure 36: MSN to Inmarsat Service Mapping Example
9.2 RS232/RS422 Serial Devices

The SDU has one serial port that can operate as either RS232 or RS422. This must be selected with the System Support PC Program and wired accordingly. The serial port operates as a conventional external serial modem supporting standard AT commands. The baud rate is fixed at 115200,N,8,1. A MSN Number and Terminal ID should be configured as for ISDN terminals to select the required service. The serial port is connected to only one channel of the SDU, and therefore allows a maximum throughput of 64 kbps using either the MPDS or Swift64 service.
9.3 Connecting Computers to the Ethernet Network

To gain access to an Internet Service Provider via the Inmarsat Network, a computer must establish a Local Area Connection to the Ethernet Router of the Swift64 HSD via an Ethernet Network Adaptor. The configuration of the Local Area Connection using Windows XP as an example, is described below. Login to Windows as an Administrator. Click on the Start button, and then select Control Panel.
Figure 37: Windows Start Menu Document: 862-A0052_IM issue 3.0 COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL Page 69 of 90
The Control Panel window will open.
Figure 38: Windows Control Panel.
Double-click on the Network Connections icon.
A window displaying the list of available network connections will be shown. The Ethernet connections will be listed in the LAN or High Speed Internet section. If no connection associated with an Ethernet adaptor is displayed, an appropriate driver must be installed first, before proceeding.
Figure 39: Windows Network Connections. Right-Click on the connection associated with your Ethernet adaptor, and select Properties.
Scroll down until Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is highlighted, and then click on the Properties button.
Figure 40: Windows LAN Properties
Ensure that both Obtain an IP Address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically are selected. Click on the OK button to return to the network connection properties, and click on the OK button again to return to the Network Connections window.
Figure 41: Internet Protocol Properties If the Network Connections window indicates that the Ethernet adaptor is currently Disabled, right-click on the connection and select Enable. You should now be able to connect to the Ethernet Router of the HSD System. Plug an Ethernet cable into your laptop, and into one of the Ethernet ports of the SDU. If the connection is working the green ERB status LED on the front panel of the SDU will turn on after a few seconds and the LAN Icon on the PC should show Connected as shown in Figure 42.
Figure 42: LAN Icon
Once the LAN is configured correctly and the PC is connected to the SDU it is possible to view the ERB WEB page using Internet Explorer or another browser. Start the browser and first ensure that the use of a Proxy server is disabled. Enter the ERB IP address http://192.168.1.1/ to open the ERB page as shown in Figure 43. Click the Monitor Router button on the ERB WEB page for the modem monitoring window as shown in Figure 44. The Enter Configuration Button allows configuration of the Ethernet Router, this is for specialised use only and the System Support PC Program should be used instead.

10. SYSTEM VERIFICATION

10.1 Wiring Verification
When the wiring is complete and before units are inserted into the racks it is advisable to verify that the DC power routing is correct. Use a volt-meter and ensure that all power inputs are of the correct level and polarity.
10.2 Pre-flight Functional Tests

Position the aircraft so that the HGA has a clear view of the sky. After power-up initialisation of the HSD System, the front panel status LEDs on the SDU and HPA should be as shown in Table 10.1 and Table 10.2 below before any calls can be made.

Table 10.2: HPA-7400 LED Initialised State The start-up processes within the SDU can be monitored by observing the LEDs and referring to Table 11.1. A few seconds after power is applied all of the LEDs should briefly on simultaneously. Then the BSB/GPS LED will flash slowly until valid aircraft position data is available to point the antenna. The MUB LEDs will flash slowly until an Inmarsat satellite has been found.
10.2.1 Antenna steering check

Connect a PC to the maintenance port on the front panel of the SDU, and run the System Support PC Program. Select Monitor System Activity and then Start SDU monitoring. Verify for each modem that: The modem status is Ready for Call No Active Alarms are reported The received signal strength is more than 50 dBHz
The LES used is as previously selected
Now select Antenna Steering and monitor and log the following variables while the aircraft is slowly turned through 360 degrees: Aircraft attitude (True Heading, Roll and Pitch Angles) BSB state should remain Pointing If the GPS receiver internal to the SDU is used, the GPS signal should stay above 40 dBHz and at least four GPS satellites should be seen Satellite relative speed should remain small Carrier to noise ratio of the signal received by the primary modem should remain above 50 dBHz Commanded beam azimuth and elevation angles
10.2.2 Voice call quality check

Make a voice call and then turn the aircraft through 360 degrees while monitoring speech quality. Before any calls can be made, ensure that the HSD System has been properly activated by an Inmarsat Service Provider as described in Section 7.
10.2.3 Data call quality check

Configure the Ethernet Router for dual channel Swift64 data calls and then connect a computer to the Internet by accessing an appropriate web page. Also open the ERB monitoring WEB page as shown in Figure 44. Download a data file of at least 1Mb and monitor data throughput while the aircraft is turned through 360 degrees.
10.3 Interference Check

An interference check must be performed on-ground before flight-test. The purpose of the interference check is to verify that the Swift64 HSD system does not interfere with the navigation and communication systems of the aircraft. To perform the interference check the aircraft must be parked outside with clear view to the satellite. The aircraft must be parked such that the HGA beam points in the general direction of most of the other aircraft antennas (for example if the HGA is tail-mounted then the nose of the aircraft must point towards the satellite). If the HGA is mounted in the centre of the aircraft, possibly interfering with antennas both in front and behind the test should be repeated for each direction. Qualified personnel must verify that no interference occurs with other aircraft systems when two or more simultaneous 64 kbps calls are made.
10.4 In-flight Functional Tests

Repeat the antenna steering check, voice call quality check and the data call quality check described above while the aircraft is flying in a circle at cruise speed. Be aware of potential blocking of the satellite signal by the fuselage and tail at high bank angles and low satellite elevations.
11. TROUBLESHOOTING
The various subsystems of the SDU and HPA perform a series of self-tests on start-up, as well as during normal operation of the system. The results of these tests are indicated by the LEDs on the front panels of the SDU and HPA, and by audio tones on ISDN voice terminals. Certain failures will cause the system to reset automatically, in an attempt to recover from the failure. This automatic recovery procedure will typically be repeated twice if the failure is persistent. More detailed information about the failures are recorded in diagnostic logs which are stored on the various subsystems of the SDU. These message logs can be retrieved as described in Section 8.8.
11.1 SDU-7300 Status LEDs

11.5 Diagnostic Message Logs

Diagnostic message logs of failures and warnings can be retrieved with the System Support PC Program from the ERB, both modems and the BSB. Details of these logs, as well the required corrective actions are described below. Due to the automatic failure recovery function of the SDU, a single persistent failure may be recorded up to three times in the same log.
11.5.1 ERB Messages

The ERB maintains a log of failure messages in non-volatile memory, which is not erased when power to the SDU is switched off. This log appears under the heading ERB Errors in the log file created by the System Support PC Program, as shown in Table 11.4 below:
ERB Errors ========== errlog -vall No errors currently logged

12. COMPONENT REPLACEMENT

The following removal procedures are guidelines that may have to be adapted to allow for the special circumstances of some installations.
12.1 SDU-7300 Removal

NOTE: The configuration module should remain with the aircraft and be inserted into the replacement SDU. If the configuration module is replaced, the Inmarsat Serial Numbers identifying the system will change, and all the installation specific configuration data will have to be re-entered. In a four channel system, the configuration module of the master SDU should be inserted in the new master SDU, and likewise for the slave SDU.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Shut down the system Isolate the system from the power supply Undo screws securing the hinged cover plate on the front of the unit Open the cover to expose the configuration module Remove the configuration module from the unit Undo the knurled knobs securing the unit Remove the unit from the tray
