General information
1.1 Introduction
The 150W / 250W MF/HF transceiver with integrated DSC and telex is designed for maritime applications in voluntary as well as compulsorily fitted vessels. It offers simplex and semi-duplex SSB radiotelephone communication in the maritime mobile frequency bands between 1.6 and 30 MHz. The basic version of the transceiver include voice, DSC and a dedicated 2187,5kHz DSC watch receiver, forming an ideal system for MF GMDSS installations. The transceiver can easily be upgraded to include 6 channel scanning DSC watch receiver, and Telex operation to comply with MF/HF requirements in sea area A3. The upgrade is done by entering software license codes. The equipment consists of a compact transceiver control unit, a fully remote controlled transceiver unit and an automatic antenna tuning unit. The microprocessor controlled Antenna Tuning Unit automatically matches the impedance of antennas between 8 and 18 metres in length and requires no presetting at the installation. The typical tuning time is 1 s. It is designed for outdoor installation and may be located up to 100 metres from the Transceiver Unit. The Transceiver Unit contains all receiver and transmitter circuits. The fully protected solid state 150W / 250W power amplifier cooled by natural convection matches a 50 ohm antenna system, but is normally used in connection with the Antenna Tuning Unit. The DSC/Telex modem contains two demodulators, one connected to the built-in watch receiver for continuous watch on the DSC distress frequency 2187.5 kHz, the other connected to the communication receiver which may be used to keep simultaneous watch on other DSC frequencies or may be used for telex communication. The Control Unit is for operation of radiotelephone as well as DSC and telex functions. Use of the equipment is simple, logic and straight forward. DSC operation is based on the use of soft keys. Guiding texts are provided and the large display is able to show the contents of a complete call in one screen. For telex operation the keyboard, printer or data terminal can be connected directly to the control unit. The equipment is designed for operation from a 24 V battery. With the optional AC Power Supply unit installed the equipment may be supplied from 115/230 V AC main or emergency supplies with automatic switch-over to 24 V DC supply in the absence of AC supply voltage. Also optionally battery charger for AC is available in the product line. The built-in test facilities and easy-to-replace module design of the equipment simplifies the service concept.
Complies with the relevant IMO performance standards for MF/HF GMDSS equipment, the ITU Radio Regulations, the ITU-R recommendations and the relevant performance specifications of ETSI and IEC, in the ITU marine bands.

Each area requires separate considerations even though they are interrelated. Ideally the Control Unit, Transceiver Unit, Antenna Tuning Unit and the antenna ground-plane must have the same RF ground potential. Unfortunately this situation is seldom achieved, but interference problems will be reduced along with how close to this ideal the grounding of the installation is performed. On some installations ground loops will cause problems. A ground loop is caused by more than one ground path for a given unit. This will introduce circulating RF currents which may cause malfunction of other equipment onboard the ship as well as a hot handset.

Antenna start The vertical antenna always start at its electrical ground-plane, whether or not it is physically mounted there. First determine the antennas electrical ground-plane, which is where the ATU must be mounted. Where possible always take the ATU to the ground, not the ground to the ATU. In case of a fibreglass boat, the ground-plane may well be at the hull grounding terminal. Then this is where the Antenna Tuning Unit should go and this is where the antenna actually starts.

ATU
RF ground loop It is not always possible or practical to mount the ATU using a very short strap to the actual ground-plane. In such a case the coaxialcable may be connected between units with different ground potentials causing RF loop-current to flow.

Minimizing ground loops By routing the coax cable very close together with the ATU ground strap (secure good RF coupling between the two) all the way down to the ground-plane, there will be no RF ground loop left to generate the interference.

2.5 Antennas
Transceiver Antenna The equipment is used with common transmitting and receiving antenna. The antenna should be erected in the open, away from conducting object such as derricks etc. which may cause reduction of the radiated power. Insulators should be of the best type having low leakage even when wet. Stays, wires, steel masts etc. should be either effectively earthed or insulated. The antenna should also be kept as far away as possible from electrical equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installation such as cable braiding (screens) and instruments in the vicinity of the antenna should be earthed effectively, and the instruments in question should be fitted with noise-interference suppression devices, effective in the range 0.1 MHz to 30 MHz to avoid malfunction of these instruments. The Antenna Tuning Unit will tune on any frequency in the range 1.6 to 27 MHz to good whip and/or wire installations of 12 to 18 meters total electrical length. Shorter antennas, electrical length down to 8 meters can be used. Where possible long antennas should be installed to maximize the radiated power in the lower frequency bands. In general a 12 meter antenna installation can be made using an 8 meter whip and 4.5 meter feeder or a 10 meter whip and 2.5 meter feeder. In both cases the whip should be mounted on a pole allowing for the feeder to be erected at an angle of no less than 60 degrees to create a vertical antenna system. Using horizontal feeders or feeders mounted at an angle below 45 degrees usually transform the antenna radiation resistance to a lower value reducing the radiated power. Furthermore, the total antenna system should be kept well away from conductive objects such as the mast. Usually a horizontal distance of more than 4 meters will create good results. Note: If a whip antenna is used this should have an anti-corona ball as a top termination to prevent crackling noise in the receiver.
The antenna is terminated at the insulator at the top of the Antenna Tuning Unit. The insulator must be relieved from mechanical stress by using max. 1 metre flexible wire between the insulator and a support. To maximize the radiated power and avoid flash over keep distance to metal parts as long as possible. All wire junctions in the antenna system must be made with cable lugs of correct size according to the wire gauge. This will prevent bad connections due to corrosion. For further corrosion proofing grease may be applied to the cable joints.

DSC watch receiver antenna The DSC watch receiver antenna may be an active or a passive type. The antenna should be erected well in the clear and kept away as far as possible from electrical equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installation such as cable braiding and instruments in the vicinity of the antenna should be earthed effectively, and the instruments in question should be fitted with noise-interference suppression devices, effective in the range 0.1 to 30 MHz. The antenna feed-in should be coaxial cable. In case of a passive antenna the feed-in should be as short as possible, especially in the case of short antennas. The recommended antenna length is 7-30 meters. If a long coax cable is necessary an impedance matching transformer should be inserted at the antenna or an active antenna should be used. DC supply voltage for an active antenna is available at the DSC RX antenna connector. The supply voltage is +12 V for supply currents up to 20 mA. The short circuit current is limited to 2 mA to allow passive antennas with matching transformers to be connected directly.

The GMDSS Radiotelex Terminal is an option used for handling transmission/reception of telex messages over radio. The terminal consists of a printer and a keyboard, connected to the transceiver control unit which provides the interface to the DSC/telex modem located in the transceiver unit. The keyboard is equipped with an affixed template for function keys and indicator lamps. The GMDSS Radiotelex Terminal is designed in accordance with relevant IMO, ITU and ETSI recommendation/specifications and has been approved for shipboard installations to be operating within the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System. It supports world-wide ship-to-ship, shore-to-ship and ship-to-shore communication by utilizing the radiotelex protocols described in ITU- Rec. 625 to overcome the deficiencies of the HF medium. In case of two-way communication an ARQ (Automatic Repetition reQuest) algorithm for error correction is thus used, and when sending to more than one station an FEC (Forward Error Correction) algorithm is used.

Printer The terminal uses an OKI Microline 280 parallel interface dot-matrix printer with roll paper stand, please refer to the operation guide delivered with the printer. The printer should be connected to the printer socket at the rear of the control unit by means of the parallel interface cable included with the printer. The printer is equipped with a special firmware which allows the paper to be scrolled up so the current line can be read in printing pauses, and scrolled back down when printing continues. The firmware version can be checked by performing a selftest: Disconnect the parallel interface cable. Press the LF (line-feed) and the Select button while switching the printer on. When light comes on in the indicator lamps, release the buttons. The printer version is now printed followed by a test print-out. The version must be: F/W 03.10 Also make sure the printer firmware is configured for radio telex. This is shown in the snapshot below, where MEI E1 indicates configuration for radio telex.
Keyboard The keyboard is a Cherry 1800 PC/AT compatible keyboard. The self-adhesive keyboard template delivered with the equipment must be mounted on the keyboard: Remove the protective paper. Carefully place the template around the function keys and indicator lamps so the latter are fully visible.

Modem Set-up Modem set-up mode is selected automatically when selecting telex mode on if no call codes are valid or if the answer back string is not valid. To change a valid set-up, a factory reset of the modem must be performed. When entering telex mode after a factory reset the 5-digit call code, may then be entered. The MMSI number from the control unit will be printed, but cannot be changed. The answer back string allocated to the station may then be entered. To leave a setting unchanged just press Enter, otherwise key in a new setting and press Enter. The next item is then printed. After the last item follows: Accept settings (Y/N)? The process may be repeated if N is pressed; the modem set-up mode is left if Y is pressed. The answer back, which should be entered above is combined by the 5-digit call code or MMSI number, the abbreviated ID and an x e.g.: 12345 abcd x or 123456789 abcd x

An integer type PLL is used for creating the DSC LO1 signal. The PLL resolution is 2 KHz and after division by 4 the final DSC LO1 resolution is 500 Hz. Three separate VCO s are used for covering the necessary frequency range. A 14.85 MHz TCXO is used for reference for the PLL. A doubler Circuit submitted to the 14,85 MHz reference signal is used for DSC LO2 signal thus creating 29.70 MHz. A 14.6144 MHz TCXO divided by 32 thus creating 456.7 KHz is used for DSC LO3 signal.

4.6 Selftest
Introduction The SELF TEST BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) of the transceiver is used as a fault diagnosing tool for the service technician. It may also be used by the operator to obtain additional information on a problem when ordering service. The SELF TEST checks the vital functions of the Transceivers modules by performing and monitoring a sequence of operations. The program controls the analog and digital set ups necessary to perform each test step in the line of tests executed during the SELF TEST. These set ups will result in a digital feed back from go/no-go analog check detectors, A/D converters or digital circuits. Self test description The SELF TEST is started by selecting MENU and the INFO &TEST, CHECK, SELFTEST menu items. All tests which does not involve transmission will automatically be performed successively until the last test has passed or an error condition has occurred. The test number and a name is displayed as the test proceeds. After the last test the user has the option to continue with a test of the transmitter with power delivered to the antenna. The user selects the test frequency. Both receiver and transmitter are set to the test frequency which should be selected so as to cause minimal disturbance of others.
