Registering on the BGAN network
Registration procedure
When the SIM PIN is accepted by the terminal, the EXPLORER 727 system starts the registration
procedure on the BGAN network.
You can monitor the registration procedure by looking at the Antenna and Terminal indicators in
the LED panel of the terminal.
Note that the registration procedure may take several minutes.
LED indications during the registration procedure
This table shows how the startup procedure is signaled with the light indicators. If errors occur,
the indicators will light yellow or red, depending on the severity of the errors.
For further information on the indicators, see
Light indicators
on page 119.
Note on satellite coverage
Be aware that if the vehicle is placed on the side of a steep hill or similar, you may not have
optimum satellite coverage because the elevation angle of the antenna is changed.
Note
We recommend keeping the vehicle on a steady course while the antenna is performing
a sky scan. If the vehicle is turning during sky scan, it increases the total duration of the
sky scan process.
