ADVANCED SETTINGS SCREEN
The Advanced Settings Screen allows you to modify several key operating parameters
in the unit.
Satellite Search Method
: Normal is the default method to use unless your Service
Provider specifies the Full Method. The Full method takes longer and utilizes more
resources since it will search all possible frequencies for Thuraya IP+
service. This full
search can take up to 20 minutes.
Auto Power ON
: When enabled, the terminal will automatically power up when
external DC is applied.
Buffering
: When buffering is enabled the Thuraya IP+ can store more data to handle
bursts of IP traffic from connected devices. When buffering is disabled, only the
minimum of traffic is stored to reduce latency. Disable buffering for low latency traffic
such as voice or video.
Antenna Pointing
: This drop-down menu determines whether the Pointing Display
comes up each time Thuraya IP+
is powered up or restarts. The factory default for
this setting is Disabled to bypass the pointing state upon power up. However, antenna
pointing can be Enabled to provide pointing information prior to going online.
LCD Backlight Config
: LCD backlighting can be On (15 sec), Off, or Auto (off after 15
seconds of inactivity unless external DC present).
Streaming Alert
: When the audio streaming alert is enabled, the Thuraya IP+ will beep
twice every 30 seconds after 10 minutes of streaming inactivity (no transmit or receive
