  • Page 54: Protect The Cables And Cable Connectors

    Where possible route the cable through existing holes in the floor or the firewall of the engine compartment. 2. Route the cable starting from the terminal to the fuse panel. Note: SkyWave recommends that you tape cable ends to prevent dirt from collecting on the contacts. 4.9.1...
  • Page 55: 4.10 Connect To Power

    Note: The terminals must complete registration to operate. Once you apply power, the terminal goes into satellite search mode to acquire the SkyWave IsatData Pro network. This activity may take a few minutes to complete. If you experience difficulties, refer to Section 5 for troubleshooting suggestions.
  • Page 56: 4.12 Application Programming Interface

    Note: The terminal will not register until it has a clear line of sight to the satellite. The SkyWave IsatData Pro network records the registration message and forwards the registration message to the user’s application. The SkyWave IsatData Pro network sends an acknowledgement message over the satellite to the terminal.
  • Page 57: Troubleshooting The Terminal

     Verify with your SP that the terminal is assigned to your account and registered (i.e., that it is sending and receiving) and that the SkyWave IsatData Pro network is operating properly.  Check the condition of the power cable.
