🔍 Key Concepts

• Inmarsat-C system components: terminal, Antenna Deck Equipment (ADE), feedline/coax cable, and motors for azimuth/elevation tracking • Process of fault isolation: what it means when a system works with test equipment but not with the original installation • Difference between a signal path problem (cable/connector) and a mechanical pointing problem (AZ/EL motors)

💭 Think About

• If the terminal logs in correctly when using a test cable and new ADE in clear view of the satellite, what does that tell you about the condition of the terminal itself? • What parts of the original installation are not being used during the successful test, and therefore are the most likely locations of the fault? • How would you systematically check whether the issue is in the ADE unit itself or in the cable/connection between the terminal and that ADE?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which components are proven good by the successful test (terminal, new ADE, test cable, and basic configuration). • Focus on what remains unverified in the original setup: original ADE, original feedline/cable, and any connectors or junctions. • Before choosing an answer, ask: which option best reflects a logical next diagnostic step rather than immediately replacing major hardware or switching satellites.
