DSAT-300 ACTIVATION AND CONFIGURATION
3.1 UNIT ACTIVATION
Prior to first use the unit will need to be activated. The user’s SKYTRAC Program Manager will normally do this
using SkyWeb. By completing ‘Step 2’ in the SkyWeb Hardware Management section, they can activate the unit
with the Iridium network. The unit does not need to be powered up at this stage. The activation process can take
up to a maximum of 1 hour (but typically less).
When the DSAT is ready to be tested (fully charged, antennas connected and located where they have full visibility
of the sky) it should be powered up. The DSAT-300 will then automatically start sending position reports at the
default interval. This can be confirmed by the Program Manager on SkyWeb. The Program Manager can then
continue the steps in the Hardware Management section to configure the relevant settings/position intervals etc.
NOTE: The default position reporting interval for the DSAT-300 is 120 secs, the minimum is 15 secs.
3.2 AFF PRICING PLAN
SKYTRAC Systems offers a configuration pricing package for operators who are using the DSAT-300 for contract
compliance. The Program Manager can specify that they are on the AFF Pricing Plan during the activation process.
Once activated and configured correctly the DSAT-300 will automatically send position reports every 2 minutes to
the requested government agency. No other configuration is required.
