The NWC Voyager used with the SIM card assumes the identity of the SIM card. The SIM card has its own set of Inmarsat Mobile Numbers (IMN) on which the user can be contacted irrespective of the NWC Voyager used. All outgoing calls will be billed to the owner of the SIM card. The SIM card is protected by a SIM PIN (Personal Identification Number). Contact your Net service provider if you do not have the PIN code. If the PIN code entered does not match the PIN code on the SIM card, operation with that particular SIM card will lock-up after three failed attempts. You must then use the SIM un-block code (PUK code) provided by your Net service provider to un-lock the card. Contact your Net service provider if you do not have the PUK code. Note! When the PUK is used, the SIM PIN is set to 1 2 3 4. To change or disable the PIN code, see User Guide > Access level on the enclosed CD. The SIM card can store various information, e.g.: • PIN code (Personal Identification Number) • Phone book • Allowed Net service providers NWC Voyager INTRODUCTION CONT’D Note! NWC Voyager can be used with or without SIM card. The Net service provider, however, sometimes requires the use of SIM card. The SIM card is located on the rear panel of the Main Communication Unit, see figure 6. The cover must be removed to access the the card slot. The cover is attached by two serrated screws. No tools are required to loosen the screws. PIN code The user is prompted for the 4-8 digit Personal Identification Number each time the NWC Voyager is switched on: • SIM PIN? NWC Voyager SIM PIN: _ • PIN? NWC Voyager PIN: _ (with SIM card) (without SIM card) The PIN protection can be disabled, see "Access level" in the User Guide. 9 GETTING STARTED OPERATION FROM HANDSET Handsfree microphone Display indicators: appears at hook OFF flashes when receiving a call Net provider&Ocean Region appears when loudspeaker is ON ALPHA appears when selecting letters on the keypad, e.g. for Phone Book entries signal strength indicator alarm indicator ISDN ALPHA Telenor IOR Ready for call Hook ON magnet click!

NWC Voyager GETTING STARTED APPENDIX A - INSTALLATION Safety Warnings, Cautions and Warranty General Cables and connections To avoid interference, do not run cables parallel to AC wiring, or near fluorescent lights or other high magnetic or electrical fields. Interference from this kind of sources causing equipment to be faulty or fail working properly will automatically void warranty conditions. Access to the interior of the equipment shall be made by a Nera qualified technician only. The equipment should preferably be installed by a Nera SatCom approved Installation & Service Agent. Warranty is not valid until the "Nera SatCom AS Warranty Certificate" (at the back of the Registration and Warranty Certificate booklet enclosed with the equipment) is signed by the approved Installation & Service Agent, and returned to Nera SatCom. Cables longer than 5 metres must be shielded. All peripheral equipment must be grounded. Warranty seals The Main Communication Unit is sealed with three labels: . The warranty is void if seal is broken. Grounding Connection to all type of equipment meant for operation together with Nera NWC Voyager should be done while the unit is powered off. Peripheral equipment using mains shall be connected to a grounded AC power socket. NWC Voyager - ISDN telephone 100 m 0.22 mm2 min - Analogue telephone 150 m 0.22 mm2 min - USB 5m Standard cable - RS-232 3m Standard cable - RS-422 100 m 0.22 mm2 min Always follow the installation guidelines described later in this manual for each type of interface. Ventilation of the Main Communication Unit Ambient temperature range: -20oC - +55oC. To ensure adequate cooling of the MCU a 10 cm unobstructed space must be maintained above and below the unit. See "Placing the Main Communication Unit (MCU)". Failure to comply with the above rules for installation will automatically void the warranty. A-1 GETTING STARTED APPENDIX A - INSTALLATION CONT’D Location of Antenna Unit Antenna radiation safe distance Avoiding obstructions The antenna has ±10° horizontal and ±15° vertical beamwidth at 3 dB. The antenna ideally requires a free line of sight in all directions. Any obstruction will cause blind sectors, resulting in signal degradation or even loss of communication with the satellite. Degradation of the satellite signal can only be completely avoided by placing the antenna higher than any obstructions. This is often not feasible and a compromise must be made to reduce the number of blind sectors and cost of installation. The degree of signal degradation depends on the size of the obstructions; the distance to them must therefore be considered. Preferably, all obstructions within 3 m of the antenna should be avoided. Obstructions less than 15 cm in diameter can be ignored beyond this distance. Coax cable Avoiding interference Do not locate the Antenna Unit close to interfering signal sources, or in such a position that the source (e.g. radar antenna) radiates directly into the NWC Voyager antenna. A 7.5 metre coaxial cable type RG-223 (103154) is supplied as standard. For greater lengths, see the table below which lists suitable double screened coax cables. The coax cable should be secured by laying the cable in a tube and/or by fastening the cable to avoid damage.

The satellite terminal does not need GPS to operate. There are two ways of feeding the system with GPS signals: • Internal GPS, located in the antenna. NWC Voyager APPENDIX A - INSTALLATION CONT’D • External GPS signals fed via the NMEA input from a separate source in the vehicle. Benfits of GPS: • Calculates antenna elevation when searching. • Finds the satellite faster. • Updates the system real time clock automatically. Always exact time displayed in the vtLite editor. A-17 GETTING STARTED APPENDIX A - INSTALLATION CONT’D NMEA-0183 input sources (complies with IEC 61162-1) Intended for backup GPS. The internal GPS located in the antenna will always be used as the primary source. If the primary source is not receiving GPS signals, the external GPS input will be used (if enabled). NMEA-0183 input is not required for operation of NWC Voyager. The NMEA-0183 (ver. 3.00) input is a 4 - 15 V current loop interface located on the connector panel of the MCU.
