SPOT Global Phone User Manual Download

Getting Started

Move the antenna to its optimal position (pointing straight up to the

sky) until it sets into one of three positions. Ensure the antenna is fully

extended. You cannot make or receive a call with the antenna stored.

The following shows correct and incorrect antenna positions:

The phone does not operate inside a building, nor does it operate in a

vehicle, unless you are using the Globalstar Installation Kit (works

with SPOT Global Phone.
To prevent dropped calls, use the phone outdoors where you can see the

whole sky and have direct line of sight access to the satellite. If a call is

dropped, a “fade alert” sounds (to verify that this feature is turned on,

see Fade, page 71).
For best performance, move away from tall obstacles such as buildings

or trees.
