1Introduction
The SAILOR 6222 VHF DSC Class A sets new standards for the GMDSS VHF market. The
SAILOR 6222 VHF DSC Class A builds on the long tradition of SAILOR being the market
leader in the for professional VHF radios. This reputation is earned through decades of
providing robust and reliable, easy to use VHFs, and being at the forefront of offering new
techniques and features that benefit users.
Since the launch of DSC in the nineties, SAILOR has been the leading brand, especially in
VHFs with DSC Class A. The SAILOR 6222 VHF is the natural conclusion of the knowledge
gathered from being the technology and market leader, with products such as the extremely
popular SAILOR RT144, SAILOR RT2048, SAILOR RT4822 and SAILOR RT5022.
As a VHF DSC Class A device, the SAILOR 6222 VHF is a vital part of the new SAILOR 6000
GMDSS product offering. It offers a wide range of new and unique features, which will
position it as the most competitive product in the market. It is designed for the harsh
environment at sea, and as a world first VHF DSC Class A, the SAILOR 6222 VHF is
waterproof to IPx6 and IPx8, which makes it possible to install it in open boats without any
modifications whatsoever.
2Market
The SAILOR 6222 VHF is developed and designed to meet the tough requirements of
professional mariners operating in a wide variety of vessels, from open workboats and high
seas fishing vessels, through to all kinds of merchant ships.
The SAILOR 6222 VHF complies with the requirements for VHF DSC Class A, which is part of
the mandatory requirements for SOLAS vessels, and many national GMDSS requirements.
The SAILOR 6222 VHF is much more than a VHF covering the mandatory requirements. It
provides the operator with a powerful, reliable and unique communication product. It is an
easy to use, highly ruggedized VHF, which will become the daily means of communication
between the vessel and other vessels, and coastal VHFs.

4Features and Unique Selling Points (USP)
The SAILOR 6222 VHF is powerful GMDSS Class A VHF that offers users trustworthy and
reliable GMDSS communication. All SAILOR VHFs are highly regarded by professionals
because of their long lifespan, reliability and durability regardless of the harsh environment
that they are used in.
Another trademark for all SAILOR VHFs is user-friendly operation and the new SAILOR 6222
VHF reflects this. The professional seaman has always preferred the easy operation of
SAILOR VHFs and with the SAILOR 6222 VHF, they won’t be dissapointed. It offers a wide
range of unique features and functions to support the user, making it far and away the best
VHF DSC Class A on the market:
4.1 ThraneLINK
ThraneLINK is a sophisticated, uniform communication protocol that connects all the SAILOR
products in a network; offering important new opportunities to all vessels.
ThraneLINK is a network protocol suite based upon standard internet technologies. All the
products offering ThraneLINK can be connected in a network. Within the network, they can
exchange data, such as GPS position etc. In addition, ThraneLINK offers automatic device
discovery, which means the system automatically discovers new products on the network,
making installation much easier.
ThraneLINK provides “One point of contact” for service, and makes trouble shooting and
diagnostics easier and faster than ever before. The service technician can access all the
products from one location, instead of connecting to all the products individually and using
different cables and software. With ThraneLINK the service technician simply connects his
service PC to the network; for example, to the SAILOR 6197 EDS-205 Moxa Switch. Using
the ThraneLINK Management Application (TMA) the technician will be able to retrieve status
on all the SAILOR products, Alarm logs, diagnostic reports etc. as well as upload software to
all the products!
Furthermore, ThraneLINK will in the future offer remote diagnostics with the opportunity of
performing diagnostic from shore. This will allow the maintenance partner to plan and
prepare service before boarding the vessel, and ensure the technician is prepared and has
the right tools and parts with him –cutting cost and time. This feature will be available
through the SAILOR FleetBroadband products in a later release.
All this adds up to the fact that installation and maintenance of the SAILOR equipment is
easier than ever seen before. A result of this might be that our partners will be able to offer
optimized maintenance and lower cost of ownership to the ship owners since less time is
needed for trouble shooting and general service.
But ThraneLINK is much more than this. In the future new services and products will be
available. As ThraneLINK is based on open standards, products from other makers can be
integrated into the network, and the benefits will be available for these products as well.
ThraneLINK is a uniform protocol suite that provides a future proof solution to all vessels.

Full remote control via LAN incl VoIP (Available in later SW release)
4.4 SAILOR Replay
The SAILOR Replay that was first introduced in the SAILOR RT5022 VHF will also be
available in the SAILOR 6222 VHF. The SAILOR Replay functionality is a unique tool that
allows the user to listen to a message again. The incoming call is stored in the radio and the
operator can simply press the button should they need to listen to the call again. This clearly
enhances safety and ensures that calls to the vessel are never missed.
The Replay function in the SAILOR 6222 VHF records the latest 240 seconds of incoming
communications. It improves on previous incarnations of the Replay functionality as it is
supported by an improved menu structure that allows the user to scroll easier between the
recorded messages.
4.5 Display
It is important to the user to quickly and easily understand the text in the display in order
operate the VHF safely and efficiently. The 3.2” QVA graphical display (320x240 pixels)
ensures the information on the display can be read regardless of the light conditions on the
bridge –day or night. The text in the display can be displayed as white on black background,
and as black on white background, to provide the optimal reading condition in daylight. For
protection of night vision, the text can be displayed as red on black background. The
backlight in the display is red for the same reason. Dimming control of the display is also
available.
The graphical display has a contrast of > 1:300 and is so clear and detailed that it could
even display pictures! It provides all text and numbers in large and easy-to-read fonts. This
type of display is also very easy to read even from very wide angles, which enables the user
to read the displays even when occupied in another operation.
In addition to the standard operation, this very good display provides for even more
advanced usage in the future.

4.6 Menus
The intuitive menu structure design is highly influenced by modern IT and Mobile phones.
The same menu system is used for the SAILOR 6300 MF/HFs, making it easier for the user
to operate the complete SAILOR 6000 package.
The menus are standard in English.
4.7 Keypad and buttons
The keypad and large buttons offers easy and intuitive operation. The large tactile buttons
and rotary knobs provide are identical to the buttons on the SAILOR 6301 Control Unit
making the operation across the SAILOR 6000 package easier.
4.8 Handset
One SAILOR 6201 Handset with cradle is supplied with the SAILOR 6222 VHF as standard.
However a total of 3 SAILOR 6201 Handsets (406201A) can be connected to the SAILOR
6222 VHF.
The SAILOR 6202 Hand Microphone (406202A) can replace the SAILOR 6201 Handset in the
installation. Only one SAILOR 6202 Hand Microphone can be connected to a Control Unit as
the Hand Microphone does not include a hook off switch.
The SAILOR 6201 Handset is the same design as the very popular HS5001 used on the
SAILOR RT5022 VHF and SAILOR System 5000 MF/HF, but updated to interface to the
SAILOR 6000 VHFs and MF/HFs. It is specially designed for the harsh environment at sea.
The edges are rounded off to make it comfortable to hold, and the PTT switch is placed
centrally in the handset in order to make it feel natural to activate when the operator wants
to communicate.
The curvature of the handset is designed to suit the typical head contour, making it
comfortable and natural to operate. The earpiece is designed to fit the ear comfortably, in
order to reduce the level of outside noise noticeable to the operator. Moreover, the handset
is also designed to reduce the impact of outside noise in the microphone –especially the
noise of the wind, which often creates an unpleasant sound during transmission.
The SAILOR 6201 Handset provides an integrated spiral cord connecting to the CU through a
waterproof circular plug. The cradle supplied with the handset is rugged and ensures that
the handset can be installed in any angle; a solid grip is necessary to lift the handset from
the cradle. A built-in magnet switch activates the hook-off.

The new SAILOR 6203 Handset Waterproof is the waterproof version of the SAILOR 6201
Handset. The SAILOR 6203 Handset is waterproof to IPx6 and ideal for installations where
the handset can be exposed to water.
4.9 Loudspeaker
The very powerful 6W loudspeaker built into the control unit ensures excellent sound quality,
even in the noisy environment of the bridge. The integration of the loudspeaker makes
system installation easier and requires less space on the bridge because no external speaker
is required (although one is available as an option).
4.10 Waterproof –IPx8 and IPx6 rated
The SAILOR 6222 is IPx8 and IPx6 rated, this is truly outstanding compared to the
competition and makes the VHF very versatile, as it’s possible to install the radio in
environments where IP rating is a MUST. The IPx8 means that the units can sustain
submersion up to 1½ meters of water for ½ hour. The IPx6 test is even tougher: The
equipment is sprayed from all practical directions with a stream of water from a 12.5mm
muzzle, applying a 100l/min water level from a distance of 3 meters. Test duration is
approximately 30 minutes. After the test a performance check on the equipment is carried
out. A test for damage and unwanted water ingress is performed. Due to the water pressure
the IPx6 test is much tougher to comply with than IPx8, and Ensures that the SAILOR 6222
VHF is even more suited to the harsh environment it will be used in.
Please note that the SAILOR 6201 Handset is not waterproof. The special waterproof version
of the handset is SAILOR 6203 Handset Waterproof.
4.11 Channel Tables
The SAILOR 6222 VHF is programmed from the factory with all the standard relevant
channel tables:
-International
-US incl WX
-Canadian
-BI (European Inland Waterways)
-Including ATIS and ATIS Killer
The operator can simply choose what channel table he needs to use in the area the vessel
operates in from the menu. This feature makes it easier for the operator to make sure that
the VHF operates on the channels as specified locally. It also simplifies logistics in our
distribution channels as only one version is needed on stock to fulfil the requirements of
vessels operating in different regions.
4.12 Private channels
Up to 100 private channels can be programmed in the VHF. The maximum of 100 channels
can be grouped into P, L and F channels. The extra channels are programmed using a PC
connected to the LAN port, and using the standard browser on the PC. A password is
required to enter the programming. The password is included in the Service manual and
training.

4.13 Powerful transceiver
SAILOR VHF radios have always been known for the powerful transceivers. The SAILOR
6222 VHF transmitter is designed to maintain the most powerful output almost regardless of
stress or conditions. Innovative cooling ensures the transmitter is able to maintain the high
output power even during long and heavy usage. The receiver sensitivity is truly outstanding
and makes sure reception is optimal.
The transceiver design ensures that the vessel always has a powerful and reliable VHF in
during critical situations and in all conditions at sea.
4.14 Printer
Direct printing from the SAILOR 6222 VHF to the SAILOR H1252B Printer will be available
through a print server.
4.15 NMEA Interface
The SAILOR 6222 VHF has a standard NMEA 0183 interface which is used for GPS input (IEC
61162-1 In support) from e.g. the vessel’s standard GPS or the SAILOR 6110 Mini-C GMDSS.
5Installation
All necessary equipment for installation of the SAILOR 6222 VHF is available in the package.
A U-Bracket for desk top installation and a flush mounting kit is included.
The SAILOR 6222 VHF uses 12 V DC. The SAILOR 6090 Power Converter which converts 24V
to 12V is supplied as standard fit and is included in the package.

5.2.1 GPS input
Instead of connecting the SAILOR 6222 VHF DSC to an external GPS, the GPS input can be
taken from the SAILOR 6110 Mini-C GMDSS Via the already connected ThraneLINK,
Therefore, no additional cabling is needed.
6Service
The SAILOR 6222 VHF will be handled through normal service setup. Because the SAILOR
6222 VHF is waterproof, there are limitations on what can be repaired in the field as the
units cannot be opened without breaching the waterproof sealing.
The high quality design, manufacturing and testing ensures that the SAILOR 6222 VHF is
very reliable, however, if a unit should fail during the first months of use, the unit shall be
replaced and returned to Thrane & Thrane for inspection.
