Hughes Network Systems HNS9101 Manuel D’Utilisation

 

 HINT:  Once you are familiar with the operation of the Satellite IP Modem you 

can go directly to the Control Pad by clicking “Launch Control Pad” on the 
Launch Pad window where you started this wizard. 

  You must have a valid GPS location for the compass direction and 

Antenna Angle to be displayed. If the GPS is not valid, go back to step 5 and allow the 
Satellite IP Modem to obtain a GPS location. 

 

1.  Note the Compass Direction and Antenna Angle from the Control Pad interface 

as shown above; these will be used to assist you in roughly pointing the Satellite 

IP Modem antenna towards the satellite. Rough pointing consists of determining 
the rough direction and elevation angle that the antenna needs to “see” the 

Regional BGAN Satellite.

1.  Look at the Control Pad Pointing display and determine the Compass Direction 

needed for the antenna. Rotate the Satellite IP Modem left and right to the 

correct compass direction. 

 Rotate left and right 

Following are sample compass directions.
