3
Use Onsite Accelerated Service Installation System
(OASIS) app on your smart device to determine
your best line of sight (LOS) before installing your
antenna, then take the required pictures.
Once you have selected the best possible location,
download your GPS coordinates within 15 m of the
selected site to get the exact settings for the
pointing values (azimuth, elevation, and tilt).

5
Proceed with the activation and commissioning
process in OASIS (use your smart device to connect
to the satellite modem via the wireless router).
Request site latitude and longitude.
If you do not have a smart device, connect your
laptop to the satellite modem and enter the
coordinates from your GPS device when prompted.
Your GPS device must display coordinates in a
degrees/minutes/seconds format, which is
commonly found on devices manufactured by
Garmin, Magellan, etc. Some phone or tablet GPS
apps do not offer seconds measurements.
