To turn on your TracPhone system, follow these steps:
CAUTION
The antenna transmits RF energy that is potentially harmful. Make
sure everyone stays more than 36 feet (11 m) away from the
antenna while it is in use. The antenna transmits down to an
elevation of -24º, so no hazard exists directly below the antenna.
1. Make sure the antenna has a clear, unobstructed view of the
sky.
2. Make sure vessel AC power is applied to the ICM and your
computer(s).
3. Press the power button on the front of the ICM. The button's
light should illuminate green.

4. Wait five minutes for system startup.
5. Turn on your computer(s) that are connected to the network.
Once the antenna finds the service satellite and the ICM's
modem logs into the mini-VSAT Broadband service, all status
lights on the ICM should be lit green. If any lights are not lit
green, refer to "LED Indicators" on page
