4.11 Shoreline Default (Threshold)

This sets the global shoreline threshold value. The FCC for the US shoreline is required to cease
transmission at 200.0 kilometers from shore. If a vessel's distance to the nearest shoreline is less
than or equal to the threshold, and NOT inside an enabled coordinated area, ROSS will mute the
satellite modem's transmitter. The shoreline threshold can be disabled by setting to 0. The
shoreline value is a decimal value representing kilometers. Coordinated Area Mapping can be
used in place or in conjunction to control transmit. See Coordination Area Configuration for
more information.

4.12 Change Console Password

Enter the new console password with a minimum of 6 to a maximum of 22 characters. There
must be at minimum either one upper or lower character, all other character sets are acceptable.
Note the password is stored directly to the system account utility (default "Comtech") and is
only configurable through the Telnet/console interface. If the password is lost or unknown, the
password is only configurable through the serial interface which does not require a login
account. Factory resetting will restore password back to default.
4.13 General Setup: Date & Time
Setting the date & time is the users local time reference. All logged events use GMT as the
vessel will travel through different time zones. Enter the date & time as shown below.
