Selecting the preferred BGAN satellite
By default the EXPLORER 527 is set up to automatically find the most appropriate satellite to
connect to (“Auto” mode). However, if you are located in an area with more than one BGAN
satellite available, you can select the satellite you prefer to use when connecting to the BGAN
network.
Do as follows:
1.
Select
SETTINGS
>
Satellite selection
from the left navigation pane.
2.
Select the satellite you prefer to use.
If you select
Auto
(the default setting) the EXPLORER 527 automatically uses the most
appropriate satellite.
Note that at this writing the POR satellite is not yet available.
3.
Click
Apply
.
Note
If you have selected one of the satellites, the EXPLORER 527 will
only
try to establish a
connection to the selected satellite. This means that if the antenna is outside the
coverage area for that satellite, the EXPLORER 527 will not be able to register with the
BGAN network.
