The display includes the GPS receiver state (On/Off), GPS satellites visible, GPS

are at least three visible satellites reported. Once a GPS position is obtained, the
Thuraya IP+

satellite. This information is used in the pointing operation described earlier.

settings. You can also use this screen to do the following:
Restore Factory Defaults
: When you click this button, the restore message
confirmation screen informs you that the terminal is about to reset to factory defaults.
Restoring the factory defaults returns the Thuraya IP+
settings to their original, just

Please exercise caution when proceeding. If you invoke Restore Factory Defaults, you
will need to re-enter any configuration information supplied by your Service Provider.
