Introduction 1
1.1 VHF radio with DSC Class A

Exceeding standards set by IMO regulation for GMDSS Class A VHF, the August 2021-
introduced Bridge Alert Management IMO resolution MSC.302(87), as well as IEC 62923-1
& IEC 62923-2, the SAILOR 7222 VHF DSC Class A is a robust platform for when clear
communication could make the difference between a non-event and a major incident.
As part of the required safety equipment, use the SAILOR 7222 VHF DSC in an emergency
situation. However the best way to guarantee functionality in an emergency situation, is to
use the radio in daily communication on board.
The VHF radio is a simplex/semi duplex VHF radio consisting of two units connected with a
standard Ethernet cable:
• SAILOR 7224 Control Unit
• SAILOR 7226 VHF Transceiver Unit
It is designed with an easy-to-use menu-driven setup. You use the touch screen on the
SAILOR 7224 Control Unit or a connected device with a browser to enter the desired
functions. You can also select channels using the rightmost selection knob. The large
display can be customized for optimum readability and visibility both day and night with
different color themes.
The VHF radio can replay 480 seconds of received voice messages. This is a useful feature
to minimize misunderstandings and to record messages when the radio is unattended.
With SAILOR connection boxes the VHF radio connects easily to external equipment like a
BAM system, additional handsets, water proof hand microphones, control speaker
microphone, alarm panel or external speaker. The Ethernet interface connects the Control
Unit with the Transceiver Unit, and enables the VHF radio to be connected to other units in
a local network. Instead of the touch screen on the Control Unit, you can also connect a PC
or other device with a browser for setup and control via the web interface.
For a list of accessories available for the VHF radio see Accessories available on page 1-3
and check with your nearest distributor.

For more information about VHF antenna installation see VHF and DSC antenna
installation on page 2-21.

VHF and DSC antenna installation
2.5 VHF and DSC antenna installation

The SAILOR 7222 VHF DSC must be installed with one antenna for VHF RX/TX
communication and one antenna for DSC communication. You can install all commonly
available 50 Ohm antennas covering the appropriate frequency range and providing a
VSWR less than 1.5 over this range.
For further details on equipment and antenna installation, see IMO COMSAR/Circ. 32,
GUIDELINES FOR THE HARMONIZATION OF GMDSS REQUIREMENTS FOR RADIO
INSTALLATIONS ON BOARD SOLAS SHIPS.
2.5.1 Cable requirements

Connect the antennas using a low loss type 50 Ohm coaxial cable, e.g. good quality RG214
or better. It is recommended to use a double-screened type cable (like e.g. RG214) with a
maximum insertion loss of 3dB across the antenna cable installation.
The maximum antenna cable length in the installation depends on the quality of the cable,
i.e. the specified attenuation (dB/m) of the cable of choice at the high end of the VHF
frequency band. As a rule of thumb the cable length using e.g. RG214 coaxial cable should
not exceed 25 m.
2.5.2 VHF RX/TX antenna

In installations with two or more VHF radios it is important to ensure the optimum
performance of these by carefully selecting the antenna positions for both radios. It is
recommended to maximize the RF attenuation between the VHF RX/TX antennas in the
installation. You can ensure this by not having the RX/TX antennas positioned at the same
horizontal level, i.e. the RX/TX antennas for each radio must be installed at shifted
elevations as shown in the following drawing.
If sufficient vertical distance between two or more such antennas cannot be achieved, the
horizontal distance between them is increasingly important for optimum performance. If
there is hardly any vertical separation ensure that there is a minimum of 5 m horizontal
distance between any RX/TX antennas in the installation.
To minimize any increase in VSWR of the VHF RX/TX antenna, install the antenna at a
vertical distance of at least 2 m to any other mast, pole or other RF antennas. Keep VHF
antennas as far away as possible from antenna main beam of any radar and satellite
equipment.

2.5.3 DSC antenna

The positioning of the DSC antennas is less critical in terms of the imposed VSWR and due
to the nature of the DSC signaling. Please note that the DSC receiver of a VHF radio is likely
to be temporarily blocked in reception due to high signal blocking, if the DSC antenna is
installed close to a transmitting RX/TX antenna at the same horizontal level.

Alerts in the Bridge Alert Management system (BAM)
5.3 Alerts in the Bridge Alert Management system (BAM)

Important The word Alert is used in two different ways in this manual:
• In the BAM system an alert is a ship-internal message from connected
equipment to the bridge.
• In DSC an alert is a signal sent over the air to other ships and/or coast
stations, e.g. when you push the red Distress button.
Alerts from the Bridge Alert Management (BAM) system are shown in the display of the
Control Unit and are read-only. A tap on the icon in the lower right corner displays a list of
all active alerts.
The icons to signal alerts in the BAM system are shown below:
Warning: Active acknowledged alert
Caution: Alert
Warning: Active transferred alert
Warning: Active unacknowledged alert, silent
Warning: Active unacknowledged alert
Status OK, no active alerts
Warning: Inactive unacknowledged alert, rectified
For a list of possible alerts, see List of BAM alerts on page A-6.
5.4 DSC self test

To run a control routine DSC self test, do as follows:
1. From the Idle screen, tap DSC.
2. Tap SELF TEST.
The test will check the ability to encode/decode DSC signaling on RF level. The radio will
automatically transmit a DSC safety test call to its own MMSI number without enabling
the transmitter power amplifier. In parallel the radio decodes and compares the
received call to be the same as the transmitted. The display shows the result of the test.
3. Press OK to acknowledge the test result and resume normal operation.
Important If the DSC loopback test fails, this indicates the DSC functionality does not
work correctly — including the ability to send a DISTRESS message.
Contact your dealer immediately for further advice.

Maintenance
5.5 Maintenance
5.5.1 Preventive maintenance

Maintenance of the SAILOR 7222 VHF DSC can be reduced to a maintenance check at each
visit of the service staff. Inspect the radio for mechanical damages, salt deposits, corrosion
and any foreign material. Due to its robust construction and ruggedness the radio has a long
lifetime. Anyway it must carefully be checked at intervals not longer than 12 months -
dependent on the current working conditions.

NMEA sentences used
B.1.3 Maximum data rates

The maximum data rate for receiving NMEA – LWE sentences is 64 kbit/s. This equals 51
datagrams per second.
The maximum data rate for incoming Ethernet traffic - addressed or broadcast - not used
by the device is 0.9 Mbit/s. This equals 737 datagrams per seconds.
The system can handle 711 datagrams per second of type b) datagrams, while handling a
50% load of type a) datagrams.
Note The assumption is that a standard NMEA – LWE datagram is 160 byte long
including UDP head, LWE header and NMEA sentence. 1kbit = 1024bit and 1Mbit =
1024*1024bit

Cable 16
The CAN bus cable must be of a paired and twisted type designed for the purpose. The CAN
bus cable can handle signals up to 100 m away from the VHF radio to further Control
Speaker Microphones (CSM).
Only 1 CSM can be connected to the VHF radio with a CAN bus cable of max 100 m if the
cable dimension is 0.5mm2 of each cord. Other combinations with more CSMs must be
calculated seriously before installing the cable. If more CSMs are connected, the CAN cable

Cable requirements
of 0.5mm2 can handle the signals up to max. 100 m. The only restriction is the power
supply for the connected CSMs.
The voltage drop along the cable increases with the length of the cable. Separate supply
cables can be installed in parallel with the CAN cable to reduce voltage drop in long cables.
The maximum allowed voltage drop from VHF to CSM is 2 VDC. It means 1 VDC forward
and 1 VDC return.
Max current consumption for each CSM is 0.5A.
Formula to calculate DC resistance in a wire:
R = 0 017  L  a
L = length of wire one way, in meter

a = cross section of the wire in mm2
Contact your local dealer for further information for correct installation.
