Standard (on-the-move) mode or X-Stream (on-the-pause) mode
To take advantage of this feature, you must have the BGAN X-Stream service included in your
airtime subscription. If in doubt, contact your service provider.
Standard (on-the-move) mode
This is the normal mode of the EXPLORER 727, where all the usual EXPLORER 727 services are
available whether or not the terminal is moving.
X-Stream (on-the-pause) mode
The X-Stream (on-the-pause) mode can only be used when the terminal is not moving. In the
X-Stream (on-the-pause) mode you can use the Inmarsat BGAN X-Stream service and extend
coverage to the entire BGAN coverage area for all available services. For details, see
Service
availability on page 9.
Switching between the usage modes
When the terminal is restarted, it always starts up in the usage mode that was selected before
shutting down.

Important
The dual-functionality of the EXPLORER 727 allows users to operate in two
modes: Standard (on-the-move) or X-Stream (on-the-pause). In Standard (on-
the-move) mode all the usual services of the EXPLORER 727 are available. In X-
Stream (on-the-pause) mode, the user can additionally take advantage of the
high-speed BGAN X-Stream data connection. However, the X-Stream (on-the-
pause) mode is not available whilst on-the-move and the terminal
automatically stops transmitting with the loss of all existing
connections
if X-Stream (on-the-pause) mode is active when the vehicle is
moving.
Note
Selecting X-Stream (on-the-pause) does
not
start a BGAN X-Stream connection, it
only makes the service available. You must still configure your profiles and network
user groups and activate the connection. For details, see
To manage LAN network
users
on page 93 and
Start/stop Streaming IP on the LAN interface
on page 41.
Note
When you change the usage mode the terminal restarts.
After changing the usage mode of the terminal you do not have the same profiles
available for your data connection. There are two different lists of profiles for your
data connection, depending on the selected usage mode. For details, see step 12. on
page 98 in the section
To edit a network user group .
