INTRODUCTION

Introduction to Intellian v240C

The Intellian v240C is a 2.4 meter C-band marine VSAT communication antenna system. With its 3-axis stabilized platform and enhanced vibration and shock damping design, the v240C can perform extremely well on all types of ships that require “always on” and “high speed” broadband communications no matter how rough the weather and sea conditions are.

The v240C requires minimal involvement to commission . It is easy to operate and also simple to upgrade and manage. Each unit comes preloaded with a ready-to-use, client-customized library that can be conveniently tailored further via PC software (also included with the unit), and firmware updates can be done entirely through the Wi-Fi ACU. Wi-Fi router enables easy connection and control of ACU, allowing operators to check the status of the VSAT.

The all new Antenna Control Unit (ACU) supports Wi-Fi connectivity for a simple remote PC connection. If the ACU is installed at a great distance from the antenna, then the built-in Bluetooth connection module can enable a PC connection right alongside the dome.

Robust and versatile, the v240C marks an new era for VSAT connectivity on the open water for deep sea vessels that require global coverage.

Features of Intellian v240C

Automatic Polarization SwitchingIntellian v240C antenna automatically changes between linear and circular polarization while it does not require manual or physical change. When a polarization is selected from ACU or PC Control Program, the Feed Horn is automatically adjusted accordingly, which is patented technology developed by Intellian.

DVB/DVB-S2 and NBD detection capability Intellian v240C is capable of detecting DVB-S/DVB-S2 signal, SCPC, and Narrow-Band signal. Thanks to its integrated digital tuner and the narrow band detector (NBD).

Wireless communication with the ACUThe ACU of the Intellian v240C offers upgraded functions. The built-in Wi-Fi wireless network card enables the ACU to be wirelessly connected, and it can be either turned on and off by a switch. After connecting with Wi-Fi wireless network or setting up a network with ACU, it will be easy to monitor, control, and change the settings of Intellian antenna system wirelessly using laptops, smartphones, or any kind of wireless devices.

Antenna log data and firmware upgrade through USBThe ACU of v240C now automatically stores all action data of Intellian antennas onto a built-in 256MB memory. With 256MB memory, about one month of data can be stored, and all existing logs are available to be transferred onto USB drivers. Also just by plugging in the USB with firmware update files stored, the firmware can be automatically updated and upgraded onto the ACU.

Bluetooth module supportWhen the Intellian supplied Bluetooth module is equipped on a main control unit of Intellian antenna, users can access and control the antenna with a laptop that has Bluetooth capability. This will lead to easier and more effective ways to setup and maintain the system.

Maximized RF performanceThe main reflector, Feed-horn and other RF parts are newly designed to maximize the antenna performance for maritime application. Not only the gain and Maximum Allowed EIRP Density are the highest level amongst the similar-sized VSAT antenna, Intellian v240C conforms to various ESV (Earth-Station-on Vessels) standards and FCC requirements.

Ship Gyro ConnectionConnecting the System with a Ship’s Gyrocompass

For satellite tracking, you must connect a ship’s Gyro to the antenna system through the gyro interface on the rear of the ACU. Intellian’s ACU supports NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 gyro types. If the ship’s gyrocompass output uses something different than a NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000, a separate purchase of a gyro converter is required.

• NMEA 0183 Gyro Compass Interface Cable (Customer Supplied)• Type: 2 conductors for NMEA 0183• NMEA heading sentence: xx HDT (4800 Baud, 8, N,1)

If there is no HDT sentence then use HDM sentence instead.• NMEA 2000 heading PGN Number = 127250 (Vessel Heading)

Strip the cable for 5 mm (0.2")Do not solder the cable

57

INSTALLING THE ACU

Connecting the System without a Ship’s Gyrocompass

For a vessel where the ship’s gyrocompass is not installed or is difficult to connect, the Intellian Gyro-Free satellite search function will be automatically enabled to allow the antenna to lock onto the desired satellite without requiring an external heading input.

The table below provides an example of the Gyro-Free satellite search algorithm. The Search 1 or Search 3 satellite search pattern will be triggered according to the existence of heading input and the setting of the heading device.

Search 1: The antenna will search for the target satellite by turning its azimuth angle in a CCW(Counter Clockwise) direction until the antenna receives a lock signal from the modem or until the DVB(Digital Video Broadcasting) transponder of the target satellite is decoded by the antenna.

Search 3: The antenna will search for the target satellite by turning its azimuth angle directly to the position calculated using the ship’s heading input and lock onto the satellite.

Quick Setup Procedure• Set the satellite having DVB transponder as the target satellite.• Set “No Device” to the heading device.• The antenna will search for the target satellite by turning its azimuth angle in

a CCW direction and lock onto the satellite signal until the antenna receives a lock signal from the modem or until the DVB transponder of the target satellite is decoded.

• Set the heading device as NMEA - Enter the “Manual search” menu and press the “Function” key to save the current settings. Intellian's ACU will automatically calculate and save the BOW offset. - Upload the real TARGET satellite pre-configured from the library.

REMARKS:A search pattern 1 or 3 will be initiated according to which GYRO TYPE is selected and the existence of the gyro input.

Search 1: a search pattern 1 will automatically be initiated when the ship’s heading input does not exist / is failed. The antenna will go to the relative azimuth position 0º at the calculated elevation and search in the azimuth CCW direction and search up +0.5º & down -0.5º with a total of 6º(±3º) in elevation. The search cycle will repeat until the antenna receives the lock signal from the modem or the DVB transponder of the target satellite is decoded by the antenna. If the desired signal is found and above the predefined detect level, the ACU will enter to Search 3. However, if the desired signal is above the predefined tracking threshold level, the antenna will not initiate a Search 3 pattern but will go into TRACKING mode immediately. If the detected signal is below the predefined tracking threshold level, the search 1 will repeat and start 3º away from the current position.

Search 3: a search 3 pattern will automatically be initiated when AGC / SIG falls below the current tracking level threshold value. If the desired signal is found and above the predefined tracking level, the ACU will terminate Search 3 and go into TRACKING mode. A search pattern will automatically be initiated when AGC / SIG falls below the current threshold setting (this indicates that satellite signal has been lost). The search patterns are conducted in a two-axis pattern consisting of alternate movements in azimuth (AZ) and elevation (EL) (like its forming an expanding square indicated within the diagram below).

• REBOOT: the antenna will restart automatically if REBOOT ANTENNA is ON. RATESENSOR BIAS: rate sensor bias is to calibrate DC voltage output from the three rate sensors used to sense antenna motion in azimuth, elevation and cross-level axes. The DC voltage output from each of the rate sensors may vary by an amount which is directly proportional to the direction and rate of motion induced on it. The motion of the ship must be stable when the sensor box is replaced.

• TILT BIAS: TILT BIAS is to adjust the two solid-state tilt sensors used to provide absolute cross-level tilt of the antenna and elevation feedback to eliminate long-term pointing drift (error). The TILT BIAS is required to be set when the system is newly installed or when the antenna control board or sensor box is replaced. Check and see if the bubble is located at the center of the level vial. If not, press OK key to enter TILT BIAS menu to adjust it.

3Wireless Network mode

Select an appropriate wireless network mode for the cur-rent environment.

4Wireless Network Name (SSID)

The SSID is the network name shared among all devices in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for all devices in the wireless network. It is case-sensitive and must not exceed 32 alphanumeric characters, which may be any keyboard character. Make sure this setting is the same for all devices in your wireless network.

5 Channel

Select an appropriate channel from the list provided to correspond with your network settings. All devices in your wireless network must use the same channel in order to function correctly. Try to avoid conflicts with other wire-less networks by choosing a channel where the upper and lower three channels are not in use.

6 Bitrate

Select an appropriate bit rate for the wireless communica-tion. If set to Auto, speed will be determined automatically to an optimized rate. Otherwise, selected speed will be applied. Please note that 802.11b only mode supports 1, 2, 5.5, and 11Mbps, while 802.11g only mode supports 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54Mbps. In the mixed mode, all otions are available.

7 RTS Threshold

The RTS Threshold (RT) value which determines when the RTS/CTS handshaking mechanism should be used is an important parameter. RTS/CTS adds a handshake before each packet transmission to make sure that the channel is clear. This adds overhead, but increases performance in case of hidden nodes or a large number of active nodes. This parameter sets the size of the smallest packet for which the node sends RTS; a value equal to the maximum packet size disables the mechanism. (excerpted from iwconfig manual)

8 Fragment Threshold

Fragmentation allows to split an IP packet in a burst of smaller fragments transmitted on the medium. In most cases this adds overhead, but in a very noisy environ-ment, this reduces the error penalty and allows packets to get through interference bursts. This parameter sets the maximum fragment size which is always lower than the maximum packet size. (excerpted from iwconfig manual)

9 802.11h

The 802.11h is a spectrum management standard designed to resolve wireless interference issues. It this option is set, E2S will try to automatically switch channels and control transmitting power in order to minimize the risk of interferences from other systems. This field can be enabled only in A band.

10 Wireless RoamingThe E2S supports Roaming Function. In order to use this function, All APs(Access Point) you want to roam have same SSID.

11 Authentication ModeThe E2S supports an authentication mode that the 802.11 device uses when it authenticates and associates with an access point or IBSS cell.

12 Encryption Type

The E2S supports different types of encryption settings for your network. WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the old, original, now discredited wireless security standard. TKIP is Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. The replacement en-cryption system for WEP. Several features were added to make keys more secure than they were under WEP. AES is Advanced Encryption Standard. This is now the preferred encryption method, replacing the old TKIP.
