Signal Monitor
Signal monitor queries your satellite device to determine if the signal strength is sufficient
to make a successful data connection. Typically, a minimum of 60% signal is required;
however, 100% is ideal for the fastest possible data transfer rate.
NOTE: Some of the older satellite phones (for example, the Iridium 9505a) do not support
the signal monitor feature. For these older satellite phones, the signal monitor MUST be
DISABLED for a successful data connection.
To modify the Signal Monitor, go to: Network > PPP > Settings.
From this screen you can enable/disable signal monitor using the “Enable” checkbox.
You can change the level of the Signal Monitor. Keep in mind that 60% is typically the
minimum required for a successful data connection. If you must change the Signal
Monitor, we recommend lowering the Level vs. disabling it. Many IsatPhonePro users
have had success by lowering the level to 40 or 30.
CAUTION: Reducing the signal strength to less than 60% or disabling it
altogether may cause lengthy data connections due to poor signal.
When you are done making changes, click <Save & Apply>.
Signal monitor can also be changed from within the XGate Settings. See the XGate Help
File > User Interface > Settings > Optimizer, wXa, & Sat-Fi for details.
