NOMAD SD2 CONTROLLER 

Using the SD Card 

Note:

 This configuration process is 

limited to Microsoft PC’s

.  

Sorry, no Mac’s at this time.

 

To use your computer to configure your Nomad SD2 simply format the SD card to FAT32 and: 

1.

 

Select “START”, “ALL PROGRAMS”, “ACCESSORIES” and “Note Pad” on your 
computer. 

2.

 

Enter the Network Configuration number from the selection below

 

and place it on the 

first line 

of the file.  

Just the Network Configuration number is all that you need.

  

Note: The Freedom Dome system requires special code (see below) 

3.

 

Name this file “NomadSD.dat” and save it onto your SD Card in the root directory.  Once 
it is used be sure to place it into the “MotoSAT Configuration File” folder

. This will 

improve startup time.

The information below is used for obtaining the Network Configuration Number for proper 
configuring of the NomadSD. The numbers in the first column determine the Network and
