Page 60: Menu System
Menu System YSTEM YSTEM This section contains detailed description of the features accessible from the menu. The menu system provides the possibility to control and manage the Capsat® Telephone. The menu system is organised as in many popular computer programs. The main menu is the main entrance of the menu system.
Page 61: Accessing The Phone Book
Menu System The phone book contains 99 locations in which 99 subscribers may be stored. Each entry/subscriber is stored with the following information. • Dial string • Name of subscriber. • Short number (two digit code). The dial string contains the subscriber’s telephone number including call prefix for automatic calls and country code.
Page 62: Direct Short Code Selection
Menu System If the size of the line is beyond the length of the display only the last characters of the dial string are displayed. 01 539558800 02 539558888 Toggling the alpha mode (pressing F) also toggles between the two display modes. Direct Short Code Selection Inside the phone book it is possible to jump directly to a certain entry without using the arrows E or B.
Page 63: Edit Entry
Menu System If the entry is successfully inserted the Capsat® Telephone displays the message 'Entry stored'. Otherwise an error message is displayed. NOTE: The phone book cannot be accessed if empty. The first entry must therefore be inserted directly. Edit Entry The Edit-function can be used to display, update or overwrite an entry.
Page 64: Print Phone Book
Menu System If phone book dial is enabled, then the CONFIG PIN must be entered before entries can be deleted. The Capsat® Telephone displays the message 'Access denied' for unauthorised use. Print Phone Book A printout of the contents of the entire phone book can be send to a serial printer connected to the DCE port of the telephone.
Page 65: Mailbox
Menu System Otherwise this menu item handles the LESs of the terminal and operations are made on these. This menu item makes it possible to select a default LES. All outgoing calls of any kind (voice, fax, data) will be routed through this default LES unless specified directly in the dial string. An Inmarsat Service Provider can dictate which LESs are allowed including default LESs in each ocean region.
Page 66: Calls Total
Menu System With SIM card inserted the menu entry handles the call log of the SIM card and operations are made on the SIM card call log. Otherwise the menu entry handles the call log of the terminal and operations are made on that.
Page 67: Pin Codes
Menu System PIN C PIN C ODES ODES Access to the terminal is controlled by personal identification numbers, PINs. The intention is that PIN1 is for end users, PIN2 is for service providers such as distributors and config PIN is for organisations and companies.
Page 68 Menu System The Thrane & Thrane factory setting for the MES PIN1 and PIN2 is set to the respective unblock PIN code. The factory setting for the two MES unblock PINs are delivered together with the terminal. The config PIN and the SIM lock PIN is programmed as empty from the factory, so these PIN code must be programmed in the pin code menu before use.
Page 69: Pin1 Setting
Menu System PIN1 setting This menu item disables or enables use of PIN1. PIN1 This menu item changes the PIN1 to a new string. The old PIN1 must be known and enabled before a new PIN1 can be chosen. PIN2 This menu item changes the PIN2 to a new string.

Page 75: Auto Prefix
Menu System NOTE: It is possible to update the phone book on a SIM card from another terminal where either the feature is disabled or not implemented. Therefore this feature is only safe for MES Only mode. Auto Prefix This menu item is used to define a prefix number to be automatically set in front of all dialled numbers.
Page 76: Prepaid
Menu System • GID 1 This option requires SIM cards which in addition to the Inmarsat specification also supports the GID 1 file as defined in the coming GSM standard, GSM 02.22 section 6. • Semi lock Enabling this feature makes it possible to use the terminal either without a SIM card or with a SIM card but only from a specific service provider.
Page 77: Antenna
Menu System Antenna Sync Lost Tm Sync Lost Tm For Maritime and Land Mobile antennas the time-out for the long-term interruption of the satellite signal (permanent loss of signal) can be defined. The default value is 60 seconds. A value between 30-300 seconds can be defined. Using the Capsat® Telephone in areas with long blockages (mountains etc.) a high time-out is recommended and opposite in areas with almost no blockages.
Page 78: Status
Menu System The “Call Answer” facility can be used regardless of the mode of “handsfree”. If “handsfree” is disabled the microphone in the handset will be used. Radio mute Radio mute If enabled an output from the terminal is activated during incoming and outgoing calls. This can typically be used to mute a radio in the vehicle.
Page 79: C/No
Menu System C/No The Carrier/Noise level defines the quality of the antenna signal. The higher value the better signal. The C/No level updates automatically every 1 second. Good C/No levels are in the range of 43 dBHz and above. Bad C/No levels are in the range of 40 dBHz and below. C/No= 45.6 dBHz Battery...

Menu System To manually initiate a new spot beam selection choose this item. The procedure will block the terminal for up to 7 minutes in which incoming calls will not be detected. A new spot beam selection is initiated to find a spot with a stronger signal, e.g. if the current spot starts failing (many fax and data calls errors) or the C/No is low.
