INMARSAT C SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Introduction
The Inmarsat C system provides worldwide telex and data transmission and
reception of written information to owners of an Inmarsat C transceiver or a
terrestrial telex network via satellite. Further, e-mail may be sent via the internet.
Communication mode is store-and-forward telex, which means all information
sent are first stored at an LES and then delivered to designated party.
An EGC (Enhanced Group Call) receiver is built in the FELCOM 16 to receive
the following types of messages, broadcast by LESs:
•
•
SafetyNETTM-governments and maritime authorities can use this service to
distribute maritime safety information to ships within selected areas.
FleetNETTM-commercial subscription organizations or shipping companies
can use this service to transmit trade information (for example, company
news or market prices) simultaneously to a selected group of ships, to
provide up-to-the-minute information.
•
EGC system-related is sent by Inmarsat to certain shipping companies and
geographical areas.
Besides its primary application of ship-shore, shore-ship or ship-ship
communications, the Inmarsat C service has also proved beneficial to trucking
firms who have found it indispensable for communicating with their vehicles. In
this manual, however, we will concentrate on ship applications, the main
application.

INMARSAT C SYSTEM
The Inmarsat C system consists of the Operation Control Center (OCC), Satellite
Control Centers (SCC), Network Coordination Stations (NCS), Land Earth
Stations (LES) and Mobile Earth Stations (MES). The OCC, located at Inmarsat’s
London headquarters, coordinates a wide range of activities in the Inmarsat
system, including commissioning of mobile earth stations.
The Inmarsat C system divides the world into four regions and each region is
covered by its own satellite.

In each region there is one NCS and several LESs. The NCS keeps track of all
Inmarsat C transceivers in its region and broadcasts information such as
navigational warnings, weather reports and news. The LESs provide the link
between the MES and the terrestrial telecommunications networks via satellite.

LRIT COMPLIANCE
This equipment can function as a marine communications terminal for the LRIT
(Long-Range Identification and Tracking) system, as prescribed by the IMO regulation
MSC.202(81). The LRIT uses the FELCOM's Data Report/Polling feature for LRIT position
reporting.
The LRIT system is fully automatic, thus no operation is required of the user. However,
follow the guidelines shown below to use this equipment as an LRIT device.
The data listed below is sent by the FELCOM when it receives a command from the LRIT
data center.
• ID number of this equipment
• Position of your ship
• Time of position
The FELCOM sends data at intervals between 15 minutes and 6 hours.
The FELCOM automatically receives commands (related to time of position reporting,
transmission interval) from the LRIT data center. To receive the commands at all times,
keep the equipment powered and logged in.

LRIT COMPLIANCE
Notes on the LRIT system
• Power the equipment and keep it logged in at all times except for special occasions
such as when the ship is dry-docked for repairs. Position information is automatically
sent at fixed intervals, thus no operation is required. However, keep the equipment in a
ready state to received commands from the LRIT data center. Combined use for routine
messages, distress messages and SSAS (Ship Security Alert System) is possible.
• The source of position data for this equipment is its internal GPS receiver thus no
external receiver is necessary.
• This equipment must be powered in the following manner.
- Conn the equipment to both main and emergency power sources (via AC-DC power
unit PR-240).
• If an error message appears, take the necessary measures to restore normal operation
as soon as possible. Shown below are representative alarms.
- WARNING: External NAV equipment failure.
Position data is not correctly input from the external GNSS equipment. Check the
GNSS equipment and the wiring between it and the FELCOM.
- WARNING: Internal GPS UNIT failure.
Position data is not correctly input from the internal GPS receiver. If this alarm occurs
frequently, have the set checked.
- WARNING: Synchronization loss. Please check the current Ocean Region. -
- WARNING: BBER over 80%. Scanning NCS start manually.
Problem with receiving the Inmarsat-C signal. Check if the current sea area is
suitable for your position. If it is not, change the sea area. If the area is suitable and
the alarm continues, check the antenna and antenna cable. Request service if the
problem persists.

Login and Logout
Each time the terminal unit is turned on, register your vessel with the Inmarsat C
system to enable communications between your vessel and an LES. This is
called login.
Note that you can transmit or receive EGC messages even if you are not logged
in.
If you will not be using the FELCOM 16 for a prolonged period, you should
logout from the Inmarsat C system, before turning off the terminal unit. The
Inmarsat C system will then register you as inactive, notifying anyone trying to
call you that you are currently unavailable. If you do not log out before turning off
the power, some LESs may attempt to send a message to you. They may
charge your correspondent, even if you don’t receive the message.

What is the EGC (Enhanced Group Call) service?
The EGC service enables EGC information providers to send SafetyNETTM,
FleetNETTM and System messages via an LES to a specific groups of ships, or
to all ships within a defined geographical area.
Each type of EGC service is sent as follows:
1) The information provider prepares the message, and then accesses the
appropriate Country of the international telex network to send the message
to an LES.
2) The LES processes and forwards it to the NCS for the ocean region
designated by the provider.
3) Then, the NCS broadcasts the message throughout the ocean region. (The
operator may choose the EGC messages to receive by position (one
position) and geographical position (nine areas). For further details see
paragraph 2.4.2.)

This provides a means for information providers to distribute Maritime Safety
Information (MSI) from shore-to-ship. Authorized information providers
include:
a) Hydrographic Offices, for navigational warnings
b) National Weather Services, for meteorological warnings and forecasts
c) Rescue Co-ordination Center, for shore-to-ship distress alerts and other
urgent information
d) International Ice Patrol, for North Atlantic ice hazards

2) FleetNETTM
This service allows authorized information providers such as commercial
subscription services, shipping companies and governments, which have
registered with a LES that supports FleetNETTM, to broadcast messages to
selected group of MESs. Typical applications of FleetNETTM are
a) Fleet or company broadcasts
b) News broadcasts
c) Commercial weather services
d) Market quotations
e) Government broadcasts to all vessels on a country’s registration
3) System
EGC system-related is sent by Inmarsat to certain ship groups and

3. FILE OPERATIONS
This chapter describes how to prepare, edit, save and print files (messages).
3.1
Files and Working Areas
To create a new message it is necessary to open a new file. After a new file is
opened, one of two working areas in the internal memory is secured to create
the message. The term “open a file” also refers to the loading of a prepared file
into a working area.
When you remove a file from a working area this is called “closing a file.”

3. FILE OPERATIONS
3.2.2 Preparing a confidential file
If communicating with another FURUNO FELCOM, you can prepare a
confidential message by entering “S???-addressee code(-password):” in the first
line of the message text. You can also receive confidential messages containing
this header from a land subscriber or any MES.
There are two types of confidential messages: message with addressee code
and message with both addressee code and password.
When the FELCOM 16 receives a confidential message, the message is neither
displayed nor printed immediately. To display or print the contents of a
confidential message, the recipient executes the procedure shown in paragraph
4.2.3.
Addressee code and password
Caller and recipient agree beforehand on both the addressee code and the
password. The addressee code might be the title of the recipient; for example,
CAPTAIN. The password could be the classification of the message; for example,
SECRET.
Preparing message with addressee code
Type the addressee code as shown in the illustration below and then type the
text of message.
Be sure to enter colon.
S???-addressee code: (text of message)
maximum 8 characters
Addressee code
Preparing message with both addressee code and password
Type the addressee code and password as shown in the illustration below and
then type the text of message.
Be sure to enter colon.
S???-addressee code-password: (text of message)
maximum 8 characters
Addressee code and password
When the recipient receives a message with both addressee code and password,
he must enter the password to view contents of the message.

4. INMARSAT C COMMUNICATIONS
This chapter explains how to transmit and receive. Before conducting any
communications, be sure to login with the NCS in your area, following the
instructions in paragraph 2.3.1.
To transmit e-mail, you may need to register for e-mail services with an LES
which provides such services. Further it is necessary to register with an LES
which provides e-mail services in order to send e-mail from a land subscriber to
the FELCOM 16. For further details contact an LES.
4.1
Transmitting
To transmit a message, create the message, attach the address of the recipient
and then send it to the LES. The address of the recipient in the Inmarsat C
system is his telex number, for transmission via landline, or MES Inmarsat
Mobile Number (IMN), when transmitting to a ship.
The message can be one you’ve just prepared or one stored on the hard disk.
(Messages cannot be transmitted by direct keyboard input.)
4.1.1
Code description
Code can be specified at the terminal unit according to data type.
IA5: International alphabet No. 5, ASCII code (7 bit).
Specify this code to transmit English containing lower case alphabet.
ITA2: No. 2 international communications alphabet (5 bit). Specify this code for
message which contains only No. 2 international communications
alphabet (see A-11). ITA2 code is transmitted faster than IA5 code.
Land-based telex equipment uses ITA2. The LES converts all codes into
ITA2. Code which cannot be converted is shown with the question mark
(?).
DATA: Data (8 bit). Use this code to transmit data.

Displaying EGC closed network ID (ENID)
To join a FleetNETTM service, an MES must be registered with an information
provider. The information provider adds the MES to the group which is to receive
the service, by downloading a Group Call ID (via an LES which supports
FleetNETTM broadcasts), uniquely addressed to the MES. The MES stores the
ID and can accept broadcasts from the information provider. The MES operator
cannot change this stored EGC closed network IDs (ENIDs). Up to 64 ENIDs are
stored on a non-volatile memory.
The ENID stored can be accessed for downloading and deleting via the satellite
path. It is possible for an MES operator to inhibit (or activate as required), via the
terminal unit, selected ENIDs previously downloaded.
Along with the ENID the name of the information provider is stored. In the event
that a download command is received and the ENID storage area is full, an
ENID which has been inhibited (de-activated) by the MES operator will be written
over. If none has been inhibited, then the new download is not accepted.
Follow the procedure below to inhibit or activate an ENID.

5. DATA REPORTING AND POLLING
This chapter provides the information necessary for data reporting and polling
reception. Data reporting provides automatic data transmission at regular
intervals from your ship to your home office. When your ship receives a polling
command from your home office; that is, a request for navigation data from your
ship, it automatically transmits this data to your home office.
No operator intervention is required during polling reception.

Data Reporting
Data reporting provides automatic data transmission at predetermined intervals
from your ship to your home office. The data are position, speed, bearing and
other data sent from the internal GPS navigator.
The data transmitted from the FELCOM 16 is temporarily stored in a data
reporting file at the LES. When an operator at your home office accesses the
LES, the LES delivers the data to your home office. Some LESs may deliver it
without being accessed.
Data reporting can be initiated by setting a data report on the FELCOM 16 or
receiving a polling command from your home office.
FELCOM 16 offers two types of reports as follows:
•Data reporting (on MES signaling channel)
Refer to paragraph 5.1.1.
•Message reporting (on MES message channel)
Refer to paragraph 5.1.2.

Polling
When the FELCOM 16 receives a polling command from your home office it
automatically transmits data to your home office. The data are position, speed,
bearing and other data sent from a navigator or an interface unit.
A polling command from your home office can also activate a data report or
message report if the corresponding setting is completed on the FELCOM 16. If
a polling command with a file name is received, the FELCOM 16 transmits the
file to your home office.
5.2.1
Polling commands
This paragraph shows you how to make the polling command at your home
office.
There are two kinds of polling commands: one is sent on the MES signalling
channel and the other is sent on the MES message channel.
¥
Polling command on MES signalling channel
Request a land station to make the polling command because the format varies
with land station.
Polling command on MES message channel
To make the polling command, enter D???, hyphen, PIN code (max. 8 digits),
hyphen, file name, colon.
To send file data, type a hyphen and file name. Then, only the file specified in
the directory of the Message Directory is transmitted. If neither hyphen nor file
name is entered, nav data (own ship position, course, speed, etc) is transmitted.
For PIN Code setting, refer to the next page.
File Name
D???-XXXXXXXX-TEST:

Polling command
If the above polling command PIN code and the PIN code set on the message
report menu (see next page) are the same, data is sent to the subscriber set on
the message report menu.

5. DATA REPORTING AND POLLING
♦ PIN Code
The PIN (Personal ID Number) code is an eight-digit code number agreed
upon by communicating parties, and there is no rule for determining PIN
code. It is a password used in message reporting. When a ship receives a
polling command w/PIN code from a shore subscriber and the code matches
that of the ship, the ship sends a message report.
To register PIN code number do the following:
1. Press [F5] to show the Report menu.
2. Press the [2] key to open the Message Report menu.

For ship-to-ship communication, country number is ocean region number.
Subscriber’s number includes Station ID, Telex ID, etc.
If file name is not specified (P???/PIN Code/~/Subscriber’s Number), the
FELCOM 16 sends ship’s position, speed and course.
For example, you transmit polling command to MES of PIN code 12345678 via
KDDI station (Pacific Ocean: 203) specifying telex number 720-5644325. Then,
that MES transmits position, speed, bearing, water temperature, current and
depth.
P???/12345678/TELEX/203/720/5644325/:
To have other MES transmit position, speed and bearing by e-mail to
abc@furuno.co.jp, for example, use the following command.

DNID (Data Network Identification)
Group data exchange (polling, data reporting) is available by registering with an
LES which provides such services. When you make a contract with an
information provider, DNIDs are downloaded from the information provider to
your FELCOM 16, via the appropriate LES.
Up to 64 DNIDs can be downloaded to the FELCOM 16. You can see which
DNIDs are stored as below.
5.3.1
Displaying DNID
It is necessary to contract with an LES to exchange data within a group. The
LES sends a DNID (Data Network Identification) number to each member of the
group. The FELCOM 16 can store 64 DNIDs.

APPENDIX
Parts List
This equipment contains complex modules in which fault diagnosis and repair down to
component level are not practical (IMO A.694(17)/8.3.1. Only some discrete components
are used. FURUNO Electric Co., Ltd. believes identifying these components is of no value
for shipboard maintenance; therefore, they are not listed in the manual. Major modules can
be located on the parts location photos on the next several pages.
