Procedure
Apply a thin layer of solder to the part to be soldered.
Heat both parts of the joint by soldering iron.
In a couple of seconds, the two parts to be jointed will reach the solders melting
temperature. Now apply the solder to the point where parts of the joint and the
soldering iron are all touching one another.
Remove the iron from the joint. Make sure that no parts of the joint move after the
soldering iron is removed until the solder is completely hard.

Note1: Prevent foreign substances from being entered into the cable during the work.
Note2: A minimum cable bending radius of 150 mm must be observed at the cable
run.
When bending the cable twice or more in close points, the bending radius
should be more than 250 mm.
Procedure
1. Straighten the cable and cut it even using the hacksaw and scale (gauge).
7-9
3. Remove the outer conductor and the insulator. (Tools: Hacksaw, scale)
7-10
9. Insert the gauge through the connector. Fix the gauge by the bolts and then cut the inner conductor
leaving 1 mm for finishing. (Tools: Gauge, M4 Wrench, Hacksaw)
7-11
11. Assemble relay connecter and relay conductor, and then connect it to the coaxial cable.
7-12
12. Tape the self- bonding tape twice or more on the cable and connector. And then tape
the PVC tape over the self-bonding.

Radio waves can be harmful to human body. Since safe distances vary by
country and ship construction, there is no uniform formula for calculating
safe distance. However, below are general guidelines.
Unprotected persons should not approach an area in which the
radiation level is higher than 100W/m2. For an Inmarsat A/B antenna is
less than 100W/m2 at 1 meter distance from the radiation surface
Unprotected persons should not approach within 6 meters of a
transmitting Inmarsat antenna
The ideal mounting location secures an unobstructed path between the antenna
unit and the satellites, from horizontal to zenith. In other words, whatever the
direction the antenna unit is pointing there are no interfering objects within the
main beam (12 degrees).
While this might be feasible on some vessels, on others it is impossible due to
space considerations. The antenna unit should be located at least 3 meters
away from masts less than 15 centimeters in diameter.

1. Keep the distance between the TX and RX antennas as long as possible.
Note:
If TX and RX antennas are installed without having enough distance between them,
it may cause the interference problem. Specially, when FS-5000 with duplex mode is
installed, transmission signal interfere the reception.
Locating the RX antennas of other equipment without having enough distance from
the MF/HF TX antenna interferes the reception.
For example, when TX antenna of the MF/HF is located at far starboard of compass deck,
install RX antennas at far port side of compass deck as shown in Figure 11.

When TX/RX antennas are installed in different height, the TX antenna is located at the
upper position such as at the top of mast.
When TX and RX antennas are separate horizontally, the more the horizontal distance, the
more the vertical distance.

Generally, tolerance of the power supply voltage for navigational equipment must
be within +/-10 % of the standard voltage.
Since the voltage decreases in accordance with the length and thickness of cable,
the type of the cable must be determined so as to keep the voltage within this range.
Generally, the type of cable is selected so that the decrease of voltage is limited
within 3 to 5 % of the standard voltage.
Voltage drop
The voltage Vd decreased by the cable is given by the following equation;
Vd = K i r L / 1000
K: Coefficient
Single phase AC and DC voltage: 2
Three phase AC: square root of 3
i: Current flow in cable (A)
r: resistance of cable (ohm/km)
L: length of cable
L = 1000 Vd/ K i r
