Iridium NAL SHOUT ns User Manual page 24

If you want to change these default settings, the SHOUT ns supports a Micro-USB connection to
a computer with SatTerm software (or any terminal emulator software) to configure its
operating profile using NAL Research's defined AT commands. Find these AT commands in the
manual "AT Commands for Model SHOUT ns" [1].
The required hardware and software for the configuration of the SHOUT ns include:
 A desktop or laptop computer (not provided).
 A USB-A to USB Micro-B cable (provided with the SHOUT ns).
 A USB AC adapter (provided with the SHOUT ns).
 SatTerm software or any terminal emulator software (SatTerm is available for
download from NAL Research for use with the SHOUT ns).
To configure the operating profile using NAL Research's defined AT commands:
1. Install SatTerm software on a computer. Connect the provided USB to Micro-USB cable
to the computer and to the SHOUT ns; hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn on
the device.
2. Run the SatTerm software while the SHOUT ns is connected to a computer. An NAL
Research message appears along with the firmware version to indicate proper
communications and power input.
3. Use SatTerm (or any terminal emulator) installed on the computer to set the SHOUT ns
operating parameters. The SHOUT ns is now ready for use. Verify the antennas have a
full view of the sky to ensure optimal tracking.
Important: An EMSS-enabled SHOUT ns must first be provisioned (signed up for airtime) with
EMSS SBD service before testing or field use. Accessing the DoD EMSS Gateway is not
authorized until the SHOUT ns is provisioned. Unauthorized attempts to access the DoD EMSS
Gateway will result in immediate disabling of the offending device, which must then be
returned to NAL Research for repair. See
regarding EMSS service provisioning.
For more details regarding the SatTerm tool, see section 5.2 Using SatTerm.
