Pointing using web interface
Instead of using the display for observing the signal strength you can view and accept the signal
strength in the web interface.
Do as follows:
1.
From the
TERMINAL
section of the
Dashboard
, click the link
Go to pointing mode
. The Pointing
window opens, and the EXPLORER 700 enters pointing mode.
2.
Point the antenna as described in Pointing the antenna on page 26, while observing the
signal strength in the web interface.
3.
When you have obtained the highest signal strength you can get, click
Accept
.
The web interface now returns to the Dashboard, and the EXPLORER 700 tries to establish a
connection and register on the BGAN network.
Note
At this point the EXPLORER 700 may make a sound. This sound is used for pointing
the antenna. The frequency of the sound increases with the signal strength.
To toggle the pointing sound on/off, press
S
or
T
on the keypad of the
EXPLORER 700.
