CONFIGURATION
R
Auto Power On: The Auto Power On feature applies only to the RF-7800B-DU024, when the external power switch
is in an ON position, and power to the terminal is interrupted and then restored. When enabled, and mounted in fixed
installation, the RF-7800B-DU024 will automatically power on, allowing connection to the network following a
power failure. If this feature is Off and the power to the terminal is interrupted and restored, then the unit must be
manually switched off and back on again to restore normal operations.
24/7 PDP Keep Alive: Set this to On to keep the PDP Context(s) active. If the BGAN network terminates a PDP
Context due to inactivity, the BGAN Terminal will automatically recreate the PDP context. Use this feature when
there is time critical IP data, when the IP data must be sent immediately and cannot wait any delays for a subsequent
PDP Context to be made.
Satellite Selection: Use this parameter within a satellite overlap region to override the default satellite (AUTO
selects a satellite based upon elevation angle/GPS location). The change to a different satellite does not take effect
until the BGAN terminal is reset.
Net mode: Configure the Net Mode for NAT Mode (default) for use when connecting to one or more computers. In
this mode, the BGAN terminal will perform a NAT capability, converting the private IP addresses from the multiple
computers connected to the single BGAN Satellite public IP address. Use Modem Mode when connecting to a
single router, where once the single BGAN Satellite public IP address is received from the network, this same IP
address will be provided to the attached router via the BGAN Terminal's DHCP Server.
Streaming Activity Timer: Given that Streaming contexts are billed by the minute, this allows the ability to limit
unnecessary usage charges independently on each Streaming connection. The default timer is set to tear down a
streaming context after two hours of inactivity.
Emergency Call Numbers: Use this to update the emergency call number that is applicable in that part of the world
where the BGAN terminal is being used.
Use Apply, Cancel, and Restart Terminal buttons to make changes, cancel changes, or reboot BGAN terminal.
Any changes made to the above fields are not programmed into the BGAN terminal until the Apply button is
pressed. The Cancel button discards any changes made to the values on the web page and leaves the settings stored
in the BGAN terminal unchanged.
