Question 26C2
Element 9 (GMDSS Maintainer)Which of the following is not a function of an Inmarsat Fleet Broadband IP handset?
Explanation
An Inmarsat Fleet Broadband IP handset is designed primarily for user interaction with the satellite terminal. Its main role is to provide a human interface for communication.
Polling and Data Reporting (A) is a function typically performed by the Fleet Broadband terminal itself, often automatically or through machine-to-machine interfaces, to transmit status information, location data, or other pre-programmed reports. This is a feature of the satellite modem/terminal, not directly of the user's handset.
Conversely, making Voice over IP telephone calls (B) is a primary function of an IP handset. Displaying terminal status (C), such as signal strength or connection status, is a common feature on any user interface for a communication device. Lastly, changing terminal parameters (D), like volume, ringtones, or initiating calls, are standard user-level adjustments accessible from the handset. The handset serves as the control and communication point for the user, while the terminal handles the automated reporting functions.
