The WiFi LED and the power LED turn on. The WiFi LED is green as GoFlex Satellite starts
up. Startup takes about 40 seconds. The LED blinks blue when the drive has completed
startup, indicating it is broadcasting and ready to be accessed wirelessly.
The battery inside GoFlex Satellite is partially charged at the factory; the power LED is green
when the battery is fully charged. The battery possesses a sufficient charge to complete the
setup process and to copy content to the drive.
If the power LED is red, GoFlex Satellite has a maximum of 1 hour of battery life. If you plan
to use the device right away, it is recommended that you charge the drive until the power LED
turns green. See “Charging the Battery” on page 14.
To power off GoFlex Satellite
:
Press the Power button.
Connecting to the GoFlex Satellite Network
GoFlex Satellite is a wireless network on its own. When you connect to it, you are dedicated
to using it. If you want to use a different network, you must actively connect to the other
network, thus disconnecting from GoFlex Satellite. GoFlex Satellite is limited to three users at
a time.
Connecting to the GoFlex Satellite Network from an Apple Device
Apple devices can use the GoFlex Media app, which allows you to easily find and play your
content stored on the GoFlex Satellite drive. The GoFlex Media app, which you can get free
from the App Store, can be used with an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. Make sure to install the
app before continuing. See “Step 2: Installing the GoFlex Media app” on page 12.
