9.1 OTA (Over the Air)
OTA, an abbreviation of "over–the-air", means that downloads the software can be downloaded
where the manufacturer reserves the right to decide when and where to release through
Antenna system.
Over the Air(OTA) is simply an alternative method for downloading software versions. However,
the manufacturer reserves the right to decide when and where this software update can take
place by “beaming” latest software versions over the air via antenna systems. Note that OTA is
only limited to certain geographical regions mainly due to different antennas having different
footprints(area where the signal can be received). The software update via satellite system will
only occur under the following circumstances.

system

not so good that the quality of receiving signal strength is not recommendable,
perform the software update later.
