SAFETY SUMMARY
The following general safety precautions must be observed
during all phases of operation, service and repair of this
equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with
specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety
standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the
equipment.
Thrane & Thrane A/S assumes no liability for the customer’s
failure to comply with these requirements.
MICROWAVE RADIATION HAZARDS
During transmission this unit radiates microwaves from the
antenna. This radiation may be hazardous if exposed directly
to humans close to the antenna. Make sure that nobody is
closer than the recommended minimum safety distance of 1 ft.
(0.3 meters) during use of the transceiver.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers.
Only qualified maintenance personal must make component
replacement and internal adjustment. Under certain
conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the cable
removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power and
discharge circuits before touching them.

TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System Installation Manual
1INTRODUCTION
This manual provides instructions for installing a TT-3000E
mini-C GMDSS System.
1.1 INITIAL INSPECTION
Inspect the shipping carton immediately upon receipt for
evidence of damage during the transport. If the shipping
carton is severely damaged or water stained, request the
carrier's agent to be present when opening the carton. Save
the carton packing material for future use.
WARNING
To avoid hazardous electrical shock, do not perform
electrical tests if there is any sign of shipping damage
to any portion of the outer cover. Read the safety
summary at the front of this manual before installing or
operating the TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System.
Contents of the shipment should be as listed in the enclosed
packing list. If the contents are incomplete, if there is
mechanical damage or defect, or if the system components do
not work properly, notify your dealer.
After you unpack the system please:
•Inspect it thoroughly for hidden damaged, loose
components or loose fittings.
•Inspect the cable harness for stress, loose or broken
wires, or broken cable ties.
•Examine all the components for loose or missing
hardware.
•Tighten all loose hardware.
1.2 STORAGE
The TT-3000E system components may be stored or shipped
in temperatures within the limits -40° C to +80° C. It is
11/97

TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System Installation Manual
recommended that the system is unpacked immediately on
delivery.
1.3 REPACKING FOR SHIPMENT
The shipping carton for the TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System
has been carefully designed to protect the equipment during
shipment. The carton and its associated packing material
should be used when repackaging for shipment. Attach a tag
indicating the type of service required, return address, model
number and full serial number. Mark the carton FRAGILE to
ensure careful handling.
If the original shipping carton is not available, the following
general instructions should be used for repackaging with
commercially available material.
•Wrap the equipment in heavy paper or plastic. Attach a
tag indicating the type of service required, return
address, model number and full serial number.
•Use a strong shipping container, e.g., a double-walled
carton made of 160 kg test material.
•Seal the shipping container FRAGILE to ensure careful
handling.

2SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
An overview of the complete GMDSS system is shown in
Figure 1. The individual products are briefly introduced in
this section. For detailed information about installation please
refer to the following sections.
Figure 1 TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System overview
A general introduction to the Inmarsat C network is given in
the User Manual [1].
14/97

TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System Installation Manual
2.1 TT-3026CMINI-C TRANSCEIVER
The TT-3026C mini-C Transceiver is a complete Inmarsat
mini-C transceiver with built-in LNA/HPA electronics and an
omni-directional antenna designed to operate on vessels. The
housing is sealed and contains no user serviceable parts.
The TT-3026C mini-C
Transceiver is very compact and
is designed to operate in a
corrosive environment and in
extreme weather conditions
without any service.
The TT-3026C mini-C
Transceiver is designed to
operate when the satellite is
visible over the horizon and no
signal path blockage is present.
The TT-3026C mini-C
Transceiver antenna has an
elevation angle of -15° ensuring perfect reception in sea area
A3 (Inmarsat) even when the vessel has pitch and roll
movements due to rough weather.
Figure 2 TT-3026C mini-
C Transceiver
The TT-3026C mini-C Transceiver has a built-in GPS module,
capable of tracking up to 12 GPS satellites.

2.2 TT-3616CINTERCONNECTION BOX
The TT-3616C GMDSS Interconnection Box is designed to
facilitate a simple and robust interconnection of the various
system components. It is designed to be mounted anywhere
inside a vessel and to be located up to 50 meters away from
the TT-3026C mini-C Transceiver and up to 20 meters away
from the TT-3606E Message Terminal.
Figure 3 TT-3616C GMDSS Interconnection Box
2.3 AP5042INMARSAT-C ALARM PANEL
A mandatory part of a TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System is the
installation of a distress alarm panel. The AP5042 Inmarsat-C
Alarm Panel is intended specifically for this purpose.
AP5042 can be used as a supplement or replacement for TT-
3042C Remote Alarm/Distress Box.
The design line of AP5042 matches the design line of the 5000
series radios from Thrane & Thrane.

Up to four AP5042 Inmarsat-C Alarm Panels can be connected
to a TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System.
2.4 TT-3042CREMOTE ALARM/DISTRESS BOX
A mandatory part of a TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System is the
installation of a distress alarm panel. The TT-3042C Remote
Alarm/Distress Box is designed specifically for this purpose.

2.5 AP5065ALARM PANEL
The AP5065 Alarm Panel can be used where a common
interface towards different Thrane & Thrane GMDSS
installations is needed. It can interface towards two Inmarsat-
C GMDSS Systems, two VHF GMDSS Systems and one MF/HF
GMDSS system.
Figure 6 AP4365 Alarm Panel.
AP5065 Alarm Panel is designed to be installed at the cunning
position. For ships with more than one position from where
19/97

TT-3000E mini-C GMDSS System Installation Manual
the ship is normally navigated, it’s possible to interconnect up
to three AP5065 Alarm Panels.
The AP5065 Alarm Panel has an interface towards 3rd party
monitoring systems. The relevant alarm statuses for all
attached GMDSS systems are constantly transmitted on a
RS422 line. On another RS422 line it is possible for 3rd party
equipment to issue a mute command in order to silence all
GMDSS systems.
For installation of AP5065, please refer to the installation
manual delivered with the unit.
