4.8 Register the Terminal
Note: The terminals must complete registration to operate.
When you apply power, the terminal goes into satellite search mode to acquire the SkyWave IsatData Pro
network. This activity may take a few minutes to complete. If you experience difficulties, refer to Section 5
for troubleshooting suggestions.
When the terminal synchronizes itself with the network, it sends a registration message to the SkyWave
IsatData Pro network.
Note: The terminal does not register until it has a clear line-of-sight to the satellite.
The SkyWave IsatData Pro network records the registration message and forwards the registration
message to your application.
The SkyWave IsatData Pro network sends an acknowledgment message over the satellite to the terminal.
The terminal is now available to send and receive messages.
