2. Initial Power Up
Once your website account is set up and you have installed your Spider you are
ready to go flying.
Initial Start Up
When the power supply is connected and turned on the Spider will
automatically connect to a satellite. The left LED on the keypad of the will glow
red and the right LED will turn amber when it has a GPS fix. This will turn
green when it has sent the first position report through the Iridium Satellite
Network. The first time you power up, it may take the Spider a few minutes to
secure a GPS fix. After that it should take less than a minute if you use your
Spider often. It is recommended you have a GPS fix before moving.
Please remember the Spider must have a view of the sky in order to work.
3. Using the Spider S5
SOS
Pressing SOS on the Spider will cause an SOS to be sent to your tier one
support people setup in the website. The only way to stop the alert is to power
the Spider down and power up to start it tracking again.
SOS alerts will not be sent to emergency services. If you require the alert to be
sent to emergency services please contact your local authority and inform
them that you intend to do this. They may require further information on how
the alert service works. Please contact [email protected] if
information on the alert service is required.
