Data limits
You can set a limit for the use of the BGAN data services with the EXPLORER 323 system.
If you have entered the call charges in the menu
Call charges
, the system automatically
calculates and displays the estimated maximum charges for your data sessions.
Once the entered limit is reached, the connection is automatically stopped. This is recorded in
the data log. To continue using the data service you must start a new connection by clicking on
the desired connection on the startup page.
To set data limits, do as follows:
1. Under
Advanced
, select
Data limits
.
2. Select the type of connection you want to limit.
3. Type in the amount of data or time allowed and select the appropriate units.
4. Select
Enable
.
5. Click
Save
to save the settings.
Call charges
If you know the tariff for your subscribed BGAN services, you can enter these tariffs in the web
interface and automatically calculate the estimated charges for your calls and data sessions. To
enter the call tariffs, do as follows:
1. Under
Advanced
, select
Call Charges
.
2. Select the currency from the
Displayed currency
drop-down list.
3. Enter the tariff for each of the services.
4. Click
Save
. The entered tariffs are used for estimating the charges for calls and data
sessions. For further information, see
Note
Thrane & Thrane A/S does not take responsibility for the correctness of the estimated
charges. This calculation is only a rough estimate of the charge, based on the tariff
entered by the user. Also, the airtime provider may have different methods of
calculating the charge.
Note
If you have enabled automatic context activation of the Standard data connection
and you set a data limit for the Standard data connection, automatic context
activation is
disabled
.
Note
The limit is
per PDP context
. This means that if you have e.g. two Standard data
connections running, and one of them reaches the limit for Standard data, only
that connection closes down, but others can still continue to run until they also
reach the limit.

charges. This calculation is only a rough estimate of the charge, based on the tariff
entered by the user. Also, the Airtime Provider may have different methods of
measuring the airtime used.
