IDP-782 - Hardware Guide
The terminal’s built-in programmability allows it to work as a standalone data-messaging terminal, with
built-in I/O data collection and processing capabilities. Feature-rich software tools make programming easy
and shorten the design and testing time.
1.1 Overview of the Messaging System
SkyWave's IsatData Pro satellite messaging system is designed to support the management of mobile or
fixed assets located around the world. An asset fitted with one of SkyWave's satellite based mobile
terminals can have their status and locations monitored, and send large messages.
The network provides the following key features and benefits:
l Polling of terminal status and location
l Scheduled reporting of terminal status and location
l Transmission of text messages to and from a serial port on the terminal
l Two-way communication for messaging to and from the asset for near real-time control
l Up to 6,400 bytes from-mobile messages
l Up to 10,000 bytes to-mobile messages
l Default acknowledged messages
l Global service
Service is provided to end users by Solution Providers (SPs) who use the SkyWave IsatData Pro network
to offer particular applications and/or services to their clients. The SPs link their application services to the
satellite terminals by connecting to the IsatData Pro gateway. This acts as the communications hub of the
system, routing traffic to and from the terminals and the various service providers.
The IDP-782 terminal can be configured to route cellular messages through the same SkyWave IsatData
Pro Gateway that supplies satellite messages. This is shown as Option 1 in the System Diagram. Option 2
represents a terminal configured to route cellular messages directly to a customer or Solution Provider
proprietary cell server. In this case the connection to SkyWave’s IsatData Pro Gateway supplies only
satellite messages. Refer to [T202, N201, and N206] for more information about configuring the terminal’s
cellular messaging transport.

Figure 2: System Architecture
The satellite-cellular terminals are based on the IDP-680/IDP-690 Lua software and are supported by the
same suite of IDP tools, enabling SPs a programmable platform they can tailor to their specific
applications.
1.2 Terminal
Note:
Hardware components may not be exactly as shown in this document. A terminal consists of a
transceiver unit plus antennas. Part numbers are specified in Table 8.
Terminals with a standard antenna operate on the IsatData Pro network at an elevation angle of 20° to 90°
and -15° to 90° for terminals with low elevation antennas. The terminals are self-contained, compact, and
provide low power consumption.
The terminal's built-in programmability allows it to work as a stand-alone terminal with built-in I/O data
collection and processing capabilities. Terminals are suitable for the AVL market.
Feature-rich software tools make application design easy, and shorten the design and testing time.
SkyWave also provides consulting services to SPs to help program the terminals and get customer
applications running quickly.
1.3 Terminal Components
Do not rely solely on the terminal for emergency (SOS) calls.
The terminal has the following key features and benefits:

1.3.1 Transceiver Unit
Each transceiver is a self-contained unit, including satellite transceiver (modem), quad-band cellular
modem, GPS or dual GPS/GLONASS module, programmable microcontroller, and multiple discrete and
analog I/Os (input/output) capable of monitoring and controlling external sensors and devices. Ideal for
mobile applications, it is also suitable for fixed installations. A variant of the IDP-782 is available with a
rechargeable backup battery. Refer to APPENDIX A for details.
The transceiver unit is not waterproof. Use it in an indoor environment, for example, inside a vehicle, away
from environmental exposure (that is, any form of moisture such as rain, snow, or pooled water). An
optional terminal shroud accessory is available to cover the terminal and protect it from water ingress.
Refer to APPENDIX D for further details.
Arranging the transceiver unit’s connectors (Figure 3) at one end of the unit simplifies installation. Sturdy
flanges on the side make mounting quick and easy.

3.4 Input/output Interface Specifications
The terminal supports four configurable I/Os (I/O 01 to I/O 04):
l Digital input with weak (1 MΩ) pull-down
l Digital input with 30-50 K pull-down
l Digital input with 30-50 K pull-up
l Analog input
l Digital output – push-pull
l Digital output – open drain switch-to-ground
l Disabled
I/O 01 can be used for ignition. Refer to 3.4.1
T213, Version 02
28
© SkyWave Proprietary
IDP-782 - Hardware Guide
I/O 04 provides dedicated overcurrent/short circuit protection circuitry when operated in the open drain,
switch-to-ground mode. The other I/Os do not have this circuitry therefore I/O 04 is recommended for
applications requiring overcurrent/short circuit protection.
Simplified block diagrams of the I/O when configured as digital inputs, digital outputs, and analog inputs
are shown in the figures below (Figure 10, Figure 11, and Figure 12).
The terminal also supports two dedicated outputs (Output05 and Output06). More information on these
outputs can be found in section 3.4.4.

3.4.4 Open Drain Outputs
The terminal provides two open drain outputs (output05 and output06) that can be used to turn on various
devices such as relays, lights or audible alarms. These outputs are capable of sinking current only. Both
outputs are controlled from the ARM processor. The outputs are not protected against over current
conditions and you must ensure that the maximum current capability of the internal switch is not exceeded.
Both outputs include ESD protection. You must also ensure that the voltage applied to the output pin does
not exceed the maximum value as shown in the table below.

3.9 Backup Battery
Terminals with backup batteries are shipped in shelf mode with the backup battery disabled. External
power must be applied to exit shelf mode and begin charging the battery to its maximum capacity. The
terminal continues to operate on external power until the supply voltage drops below the configurable
minimum voltage threshold, at which point it switches over to the backup battery.
The terminal operates on the backup battery, and then perform a graceful shutdown when the battery
reaches its minimum discharge voltage. The battery begins recharging when external power is reapplied
and the external temperature is within the acceptable range. When external power is applied to the
terminal, power is simultaneously applied to the backup battery. To bring the terminal out of shelf mode,
external power needs to be connected to the terminal. Power supplied to the battery (VIN) is protected by a
fuse and load dump within the terminal.
Typically a terminal can be reset by disconnecting and then reconnecting external power. With the backup
battery, cycling external power does not cause a reset because the terminal switches to the backup battery.
There is a small hole on the bottom of the terminal to access the reset button. Insert a paper clip through
the hole to interrupt power and cause the terminal to reset.

The terminal has a 3D accelerometer to detect motion in any axis.
In low power applications frequent GPS fixes can dominate the power budget. To reduce the power budget
effects of GPS fixes, the accelerometer can be used to detect if motion has occurred.
The accelerometer thresholds to detect advanced features such as driver behavior monitoring vary
depending on the environment. In order to avoid false detects, extensive testing is required to ensure that
adequate acceleration magnitude thresholds and time durations are used.

4.3 Determine a Suitable Mounting Location
Before installing the terminal, consider the important guidelines provided below.
Most users install the terminals in a vehicle. It is very important for installers to install the
terminals in a safe and secure way to avoid danger or damage to persons or property.
Do not mount or operate near flammable gases or fumes.
l Mount indoors, inside a vehicle, or in an area protected from environmental elements.
l Fasten the terminal securely so that it is not loose and does not move easily.
l Mount the terminal on a surface that does not get hotter than the maximum operating temperature. If
the surface might get hotter, mount the terminal with a thermal barrier between it and the mounting
surface.
l Do not mount the terminal close to other electrical equipment due to possible radiated and/or
conducted electromagnetic interference.
l Do not mount the terminal where water might build-up or collect. The terminal is not waterproof.
Choose a location where water moves away from the terminal.
T213, Version 02
55
© SkyWave Proprietary
IDP-782 - Hardware Guide
l Check that the terminal's cable reaches the power source before you drill any mounting holes.
l Do not mount the terminal close to radar or other communications antennas. Use the following
guidelines:
> 1 m from VHF/UHF antenna
> 3 m from loop antenna
> 4 m from MF/HF antenna
> 5 m from other satellite antennas
Not within a radar beam
l Mount the terminal on a flat surface that is either parallel or perpendicular to the ground, for proper
operation of the internal accelerometer. Record the position of the top surface (SkyWave logo) and
connector face relative to the ground and the front or side of the vehicle as if you were sitting in the
driver's seat. This information is used later to setup the accelerometer service.
Example 1: If the transceiver is mounted horizontally under the vehicle dash such that the white
SkyWave logo is facing down and the cables are exiting towards the driver, then record “Top facing
down and connectors facing back”.
Example 2: If the transceiver is mounted vertically on the side wall of a vehicle with the cables
exiting in an upward direction, then record “top facing right side and connectors facing up”.
Refer to [T202] for more details.
When you have selected the mounting location, mount the terminal.
4.3.1 Standard Antenna Mounting Guidelines
Mount the antenna at least 20 cm away from humans.
Cable management and connector strain relief must be incorporated in the installation.
Secure the cable no more than 15 cm from the antenna enclosure and at regular
intervals along its length as part of the installation to prevent cable wear and eliminate
strain on the connector. Damage to the connector interface or cable may otherwise
result and lead to hardware failure.
l Do not drill any holes before checking that you have room for the bend radius of the antenna cable.
For reliable operation, do not go below a bend radius of 1.5 cm. Measure the bend radius of the
cable as shown in Figure 29.
T213, Version 02

Figure 29: Antenna Cable Bend Radius
l Mount on a surface that is free from dirt, grime, water and grease to avoid damaging the mounting
surface or the vehicle’s paint.
l Mount so that the cable end faces the rear of the vehicle.
l For fixed installations ensure that the satellite antenna is pointing towards the equator, facing south
if in the Northern Hemisphere and facing north if in the Southern Hemisphere, and its line-of-sight to
the sky (satellite) is clear of obstructions.
l For a mobile installation, mount the antenna at the highest point on the vehicle or vessel where it
has a clear view of the sky (satellite) in all directions.
4.3.2 Cellular Antenna Mounting Guidelines
l Mount indoors, for example, on the inside of a vehicle window, near the transceiver unit.

leak into the asset.
Do not block the air vent features (2 places) shown in Figure 31.
5.
Secure the antenna in place with self-tapping screws or machine screws and nuts depending on
access to the mounting surface.
4.4.2 Adhesive Mount
The antenna can be mounted using adhesive or a high strength outdoor grade silicone when mounting
holes are not an option in the mounting surface.
Refer to the adhesive manufacturer's recommendations for application temperature, application conditions,
compatible bonding materials, and minimum curing times when working with an adhesive. Failure to follow
the manufacturer's guidelines could result in the antenna separating from the mounting surface.
4.4.2.1 Silicone Side Connector Mount
The following tools and materials are required if mounting a side cabled antenna with silicone.
l Outdoor rated silicone adhesive sealant (GE RTV 108)
l Isopropyl alcohol or an equivalent
To mount the antenna:

Figure 35: Apply Silicone to Hole in Asset
6.
Lower the antenna onto the mounting surface.
The straight SMA cable connector can be lowered straight down onto the mounting surface.
The right angle SMA cable connector, not shown, must be pivoted down onto the mounting surface
to fit the right angle cable and connector through a larger clearance hole. Additional care is
required with this installation to ensure the right angle cable and connector does not smear the
silicone around the clearance hole when attempting to pivot the antenna into position.
7.
Apply a generous bead of silicone around the entire perimeter of the antenna enclosure. The two
vertical slots shown in Figure 36 are vent features and must not be filled with silicone.
Note:
If the large clearance hole required for the right angle SMA cable connector is
considered too large, there is the option to use a smaller clearance hole in the mounting
surface and install the cable from inside the asset after the antenna has been adhered
with silicone.
In this case, first confirm there is enough room from inside the asset to thread the SMA
cable connector by hand and clearance for the wrench to apply the final torque.
Also note that the silicone used to mount the antenna must be fully cured before the
cable can be installed from the inside otherwise the seal and mounting are
compromised.

Consider the following guidelines before routing the cable assembly.
Ensure the power cable is not pinched, kinked or worn down by any objects or moving
parts such as the door hinges. It is very important to secure the cable at many points
along its path.
Prior to working on any cabling, ensure that the terminal is powered off and unable to
start while work is in progress.
l Do not route the cable near the engine if routing through the engine compartment. This location
subjects the cable to extreme heat.
l Keep the cable away from hot surfaces such as exhaust pipes because this may damage the cable.
l Do not run the cable over sharp or jagged edges.
l Place the cable in recesses and channels, whenever possible, to prevent potential damage or wear
by foot traffic.
Note:
Remember to leave enough cable slack near the terminal for strain relief so as not to
introduce any additional force on the connector. SkyWave recommends securing the
cables during installation.
Figure 39: Sample Cable Placement in a Vehicle Cab
4.5.1 Protect the Cables and Cable Connectors
Cable management and connector strain relief must be incorporated in the installation.
SkyWave highly recommends securing the cable at regular intervals along its length as
part of the installation to prevent cable wear and eliminate strain on the connector.
Damage to the connector interface or cable may otherwise result and lead to hardware
failure.
To protect the terminal's connector interface, follow the guidelines below:
l Apply tape around the cable ends to help in routing the cable.
l Secure the cable such that it does not pull on the connector or strain the terminal connector.
T213, Version 02

IDP-782 - Hardware Guide
l Tie the cable down so that the weight of a vibrating cable does not stress or strain the connection.
l Tie the cable down using cable ties and tie holders (Figure 40) at 300 to 600 mm intervals along the
cable route to prevent chafing, wear, or strain.
l Secure the cable tie holder with a self-tapping screw (Figure 40) for best holder retention.
Figure 40: Cable Management
4.6 Connect to Power
Apply power only after making ground connection.
Before applying power to the terminal, make sure that your power supply’s rated voltage
follows the recommended values specified in Section 2 Compliance.
The installer is responsible for complying with local electrical codes.
Note:
SkyWave recommends that if possible you wait until the terminal is unblocked (has a full view
of the sky) before powering on the terminal.
1.
Locate the main power input and the ground (GND) wires using the connector pin out table (Table
4).
You can connect the terminal ground to ground in the fuse panel or to chassis ground. To do this,
secure the ground wire on the cable assembly to a piece of metal electrically connected to the
vehicle chassis using a sheet metal screw.
2.
Ensure that the main power input and ground wires reach the vehicle fuse panel.
T213, Version 02
65
© SkyWave Proprietary
IDP-782 - Hardware Guide
If the wires are not long enough, splice similar gauge wires to the main power input and ground
wires so that they reach the fuse panel. Cover any splices with adhesive lined heat shrink.
3.
Correctly mate connectors before applying power.
4.
Connect the ground wire to the grounding point selected in an earlier step. Check that the polarity is
correct and the voltage source is as specified in Section 3.
5.
Connect the main power input wire to the unswitched vehicle power source within the fuse panel.
6.
Loop and secure any excess cabling.
If your application requires extended cable lengths, it is necessary to calculate the cable voltage drop to
determine if the terminal is receiving at least 9 V (with 1.7 A draw). Large cable voltage drops might
adversely affect terminal operation.
4.6.1 CAN bus Connection
It is recommended that you do not connect directly to the CAN bus wires on the installation vehicle. Cutting
or damaging those wires might void the warranty on the vehicle.
To connect the terminal CAN bus serial interface to the CAN bus of the vehicle, SkyWave recommends an
induction sensor, which allows the terminals' CAN bus interface to read information from the CAN bus
without damaging the vehicle wires. An example of this type of sensor is the CANGOclick. Refer to
http://www.cango.ro/index.php/en/product/10/cangoclick.html for more information on the CANGOclick.
4.7 Connect the Cables and Mount the Terminal
Note:
The Solution Provider is responsible for providing mounting instructions if the mounting is to
be done using tools or configurations that are different from the ones described in this
document.
Note:
The Installer is responsible for complying with local electrical codes.
Cable management and connector strain relief must be incorporated in the installation.
SkyWave highly recommends securing the cable at regular intervals along its length as
part of the installation to prevent cable wear and eliminate strain on the connector.
Damage to the connector interface or cable might result and lead to hardware failure.

4.8 Register the Terminal
Note:
The terminals must complete registration to operate.
When you apply power, the terminal goes into satellite search mode to acquire the SkyWave IsatData Pro
network. This activity may take a few minutes to complete. If you experience difficulties, refer to Section 5
for troubleshooting suggestions.
When the terminal synchronizes itself with the network, it sends a registration message to the SkyWave
IsatData Pro network.
Note:
The terminal does not register until it has a clear line-of-sight to the satellite.
The SkyWave IsatData Pro network records the registration message and forwards the registration
message to your application.
The SkyWave IsatData Pro network sends an acknowledgment message over the satellite to the terminal.
The terminal is now available to send and receive messages.
4.9 Application Programming Interface

5 Troubleshooting the Terminal
The following section contains troubleshooting information for the Solution Provider (SP) to provide to end
users.
5.1 Terminal Does Not Register or Report
On application of external power the terminal should register with the satellite and send a report.
Note:
The terminal must be visible to the satellite to register with the network and registration
normally takes a few minutes.
If the terminal fails to register or report:
l Ensure that the antenna has a clear line-of-sight to the satellite. The terminal must operate outdoors
and be unobstructed by buildings, forest canopy, and rock cuts.
l Check that no objects or debris are on the antenna and blocking transmission.
l Verify with your SP that the terminal is assigned to your account and registered (that it is sending
and receiving) and that the SkyWave IsatData Pro network is operating properly.
l Check the condition of the power cable. The IDP-782 features a red power LED to indicate power is
available.
Replace the terminal if the above checks fail to uncover the problem.

IDP-782 - Hardware Guide
Cable Selection
Cable length should be as short as possible and built to the following guidelines:
l For reliable operation, use twisted pair and shielded cables for data connections to the terminal.
l 18-22 AWG is recommended for proper crimping into the mating connector.
l Transmitting can consume up to 2 A peak current, therefore use a 2.5 A Slow Blow fuse, regardless
of the voltage.
l Minimum recommended wire gauge is 22 AWG for cable lengths up to
25 meters and 20 AWG for cable lengths up to 40 m.
l If the power cable length exceeds 4.57 m (15 ft), the input voltage range should be derated by 1 volt
for every 46 cm (1.5 ft) increase in length. Make sure the derated input voltage meets the terminal
minimum input specification of 9 V.
l Ensure that the cable operating temperature matches the terminals operational environment.
l If exposed to sunlight, ensure the cable jacket is UV stabilized.
l Cable should have operating voltages exceeding 100 V.
l Provide a separate return ground reference connection for cable lengths longer than 2 m if using
analog inputs. With 2 m cable lengths and a single ground return connection, analog voltage
readings errors introduced by ground reference difference in the return cable should be less than
0.2 V.
l Without a separate ground reference, the voltage drop induced across the ground reference affects
the accuracy of the analog reading. Changes to the current consumption that occur with changes to
the terminal's mode (cellular transmit, satellite transmit) change the analog input reading.
RF Immunity
If the terminal is intended for operation in a strong RF environment, it is recommended that cables used for
power, data interfaces and I/O be shielded and grounded. Data interface cables (RS-232, RS-485, and
CAN) must use twisted pairs wiring.
It is important to do field testing with RF environments before finalizing the cable design.

Cable Assembly Steps
1.
Select a cable made of a material suitable for the operational environment, the correct number of
cores and cut to the required length.
2.
Cut and remove the outer jacket of the cable, 3 cm from the transceiver mating end (Figure 63).
Note:
Be careful not to cut the insulation on the individual wires.
3.
Use a wire stripper to remove 3 mm of insulation from the wires. Do not tin the exposed wires.
4.
Use the appropriate crimping tool to crimp a terminal pin onto each of the stripped wires on the
transceiver end of the cable.
5.
Insert each terminal pin into its correct position in the transceiver mating connector. Push firmly to
make sure that it has gone all the way into the connector.
6.
Lock the terminals in place by closing the locking tabs on either side of the connector body.
Figure 63: Mating Cable
7.
Apply heat shrink to cover most of the unshielded wires between the connector and the cable
sheath.
Cable management and connector strain relief must be incorporated in the
installation. SkyWave highly recommends securing the cable at regular intervals
along its length as part of the installation to prevent cable wear and eliminate
strain on the terminal connector. Damage to the terminal connector interface or
cable might result leading to hardware failure.
