Can i use data with my Oceana and Terra Units?
more...
Yes you can. You will need to ensure that you have successfully downloaded the Falcon Tool and accompanying drivers. Your Beam Unit can be used as a modem to send and receive low rate data.
Typical low rate data applications include plain text email and small file attachments. Some Inmarsat service providers offer proprietary applications which have been optimized to operate with your phone. Contact your service provider for details.
To enable your unit for data service:
1. Connect the Beam Unit to your PC using the USB cable.
2. Initially you will need to install a standard USB Modem Driver to work with the Beam Unit. To do this, on your PC go to Control Panel > Phone and Modem options and select the Modem tab. Select Add > make sure you tick Don’t detect modem I will select from list then NEXT > Select the Standard Modem type and 2400bps Modem. Click on NEXT > It will prompt you know to select the Comport that it is attached to.
3. Highlight the modem driver you have just created and click on PROPERTIES > ADVANCED. In the Extra initialization command key in the following: &FE0&D2 OK>
4. Ensure the Beam Unit has signal and ready for service.
5. Identify the Inmarsat Beam data port COM port to which your unit is connected for the data service. The COM port number will be needed when you are using your data application. To do this, on your PC go to Control Panel > Phone and Modem options and select the Modem tab. You will see Standard 2400bps Modem and the COM port eg. COM6. Or, go to Control Panel > System and select the Hardware tab. Click on Device Manager and scroll down to Modems. If your USB drivers are installed you will see Standard 2400 bps Modem. Right click on Standard 2400 bps Modem and select Properties. You will see the Com port eg. COM6.
5. If you have not already done so, install your chosen data application and follow the onscreen instructions.

If power is being supplied from a battery, ensure the connections are tight and the contacts are clean.
Check for short-circuit on antenna cables.

Can i use a Fleet Sim Card in my Terra Terminal?
more...
No you cannot. A Fleet Sim Card is designed for maritime satellite phone service. As such a Fleet Sim Card will only work successfully in an Oceana Unit.

Can i install Surge Arrestors with my Inmarsat products?
more...
Absolutely. Timesmicrowave have a range of lightening surge protectors that would work with our products.
Adding the arrestor and TNC connectors will increase the signal loss but this would be around 0.5dB mark which should not impact the systems performance. We would recommend reviewing the actual lightening protection and trigger voltage to ensure it meets your installation requirements.

Ensure all antenna connectors are tight.
The antenna is operating in a location that it can see the satellite and there are no obstructions.
BEAM certified antenna cabling is being used and there are no sharp bends or cuts in the cable.
If using a fixed passive antenna, ensure it is orientated correctly and pointing at the satellite.

Ensure the SIM card is inserted in the phone and is fully provisioned by your service provider.
Check you have a valid GPS fix.
If the phone has sufficient signal strength and cannot make or receive calls, check if Call barring, Diverting calls or Fixed number dialling have been activated.
If you have a prepay subscription, check your prepay balance to ensure you have sufficient credit to make a call.
Contact your service provider if you are unable to resolve the problem.
