4.3 CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS

The BGAN terminal includes its own internal web interface. To access the web interface,

a. Open a compatible Web Browser.

b. Type in the internal IP address of the BGAN terminal (for example, http://192.168.128.100). The web

interface opens up to the Properties page. See Figure 4-1.

4.3.1 Properties Page

See Figure 4-1. The Properties page shows the current status of the BGAN terminal. The three status items in the

top left-hand corner of the screen update automatically when the status of that item changes:

 Carrier-to-Noise ratio (C/No): Satellite Signal Strength

 BEAM: beam Identification (ID)

 BATT: battery status

The remaining properties page items are described below. The first two items under Current Status show the

Network Status.

Registration Status: Shows as Registered with the Network or Not Registered. If not registered, select the Register

with Network button. If the BGAN terminal is not registered, but the Register button is greyed out, then the terminal

is actively attempting to register. Please wait. Additionally, the BGAN terminal must be registered prior to sending

IP data or creating ISDN calls.

NOTE

RF-7800B-VU104 has Bypass Antenna Pointing turned on by

default. It automatically registers with the Network each time.

PS Attach Status: Indicates whether the BGAN terminal is Packet Switch (PS) attached with the Network. PDP

Contexts, either Background or Streaming, must be set up to transfer IP data.

CS Attach Status: Indicates whether the BGAN terminal is Circuit Switch (CS) attached with the Network. CS calls

can be made once the BGAN Terminal is Registered with the network.

GPS Position: Displays the current GPS position status. The terminal will always report whether the GPS Fix

Quality is Acquiring, 2D, or 3D, and the Last Update time, using Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). The GPS display

policy, which comes from the satellite, determines whether or not the Longitude and Latitude information will be

displayed to the user.

Emergency Call Numbers: Displays the Emergency call numbers that can be used with the BGAN terminal.

Software Version: Displays the current version of software that is running on the BGAN terminal.

Satellite Modem IMEI: Displays the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number of the BGAN

terminal.

Satellite Modem IMSI: Displays the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) number of the Universal

Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Subscriber Identification Module (USIM) card in the BGAN

terminal. If the IMSI is not displayed, it indicates that there is a problem reading the Subscriber Identification

Module (SIM) card. Possible problems could be: no SIM, SIM installed incorrectly, or Personal Identification

Number (PIN) must be entered.
