NDICATORS FOR
ACA
The Automatic Context Activation feature uses the front panel LED‟s to give visual feedback to
the user what the context status is for each QoS. The position of the LED indicates the type of
service as shown in the figure below:

176k, 256k,

The leftmost LED is used to indicate a 176k, 256k or X-Stream connection.
Blinking Green LED: The UT is currently trying to establish a PDP context with the desired QoS.
Solid Green LED: The UT currently has at least one PDP context using this QoS.
Blinking Red LED: The UT failed to establish a PDP context using the desired QoS, but it is retrying.
Solid Red LED: The UT failed to establish a PDP context using the desired QoS.
If a second TE attempts to establish a connection for a context with the same QoS as an already
established context, there will be no change to the front panel LED, i.e. it will remain solid green.

ESCRIPTION
The Inmarsat LaunchPad application controls ACA via a feature called “Automatic Connection
Mode” that can be found by going to the “Terminal” tab and selecting automatic connection
mode. This is the same feature as Dynamic Background ACA on the ACA web page. It is used to
automatically establish a background PDP Context for any TE that connects to the 9201.
Note
: LaunchPad also includes a different “LaunchPad automatic connection” option on the
BGAN Services tab. If this option is configured, LaunchPad will automatically request a standard
Data connection after network registration. This parameter is part of the LaunchPad
configuration and there is no corresponding feature on the web UI.
