1.1 Introduction

The purpose of this document is to introduce the Maritime Broadband, C-Bird VSAT system and instruct
customers on how to use the system.

System Hardware The C-Bird system consists of a stabilized antenna coupled with a Below
Deck Unit (BDU) which houses a modem, Antenna Control Unit (ACU),
internal UPS (to protect the equipment from power spikes) and Ethernet
Switch. The stabilized antenna is secured to the deck using a mount. The
antenna is installed on a mount in a location which ensures the best line of
sight to the satellites.

C-Bird User Interface C-Bird has a simple, user friendly, web-based interface for control and
maintenance.

3.2 Power Failure Recovery

If there is a power failure that lasts more than 5 minutes the C-Bird system will stop operating. Once power is
restored:

1. If a NavGyro is used to convert the ships heading to digital format, please set the NavGyro to the ships
heading (the NavGyro is located in the Indoor Rack).

2. Login to the advanced settings and controls user interface. On the antenna control page click on Auto
Mode

3. The system should return to normal operation in less than 3 minutes

3.4 Block Zones

The inherent Block Zone is defined as the heading angle range where the antenna line of sight to the satellite is
blocked due to obstruction from either the vessel or port superstructures. The line of sight is created from the
Electronic axis, 22 below the mechanical axis (as shown below).

When a complete service interruption occurs, vessel personnel should make a visual inspection of the antenna
direction and any source of possible obstruction prior to placing a service call.

During a complete block zone the ESNO reading on RF page of the user interface will be 0db. During a partial
block zone ESNO readings will fluctuate within a range of 3-4degrees. There is no action to be taken by the
crew. C-Bird is designed to automatically detect a block zone and change satellite if another choice is
available.
