User interfaces
The keypad and display are used for pointing the antenna, for displaying status and for changing
simple parameters.
To obtain full access to all features and for ease-of-use, you should use a computer
(a PC, Laptop or similar) and one of the following:
•The web interface. A built-in web interface for easy configuration and daily use. The web
interface is accessed from a computer connected to the EXPLORER™ 700, using an Internet
browser. For further information, see Chapter 5, Using the web interface.
•The BGAN LaunchPad from Inmarsat. BGAN LaunchPad is a computer application used to
control terminals in the BGAN system. LaunchPad is provided on the Inmarsat BGAN CD-ROM
supplied with your EXPLORER™ 700. For information on how to use the LaunchPad, refer to
the manual on the Inmarsat CD-ROM.
Additionally, it is possible to control the EXPLORER™ 700 using AT Commands. Refer to
Appendix B, AT commands.
Antenna
The white part of the EXPLORER™ 700, including the support bracket, is the detachable antenna
module. The antenna module comprises a GPS (Global Positioning System) antenna and a BGAN
antenna. Bluetooth and Wireless LAN antennas are integrated in the transceiver unit.
Compass
The EXPLORER™ 700 also provides a compass to help positioning the
antenna. For further information on how to use the compass, see
Pointing the antenna on page 24.
Battery
The EXPLORER™ 700 comes with a rechargeable battery, which is easily inserted. The battery is
automatically recharged when power is applied to the EXPLORER™ 700. Steady green light
indicates that the battery is charging.
SIM card
The EXPLORER™ 700 has two SIM slots, USIM #1 and USIM #2, located behind the battery. Only
USIM #1 is currently in use. USIM #2 is reserved for future use.
The SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card used for the EXPLORER™ 700 is a standard SIM card,
which is acquired from the Airtime Provider.
The EXPLORER™ 700 requires a SIM card to go online and to access the settings of the
EXPLORER™ 700. Without a SIM card you can only see the Main screen of the display system
showing battery status etc. Using the web interface, you can view the properties of the
EXPLORER™ 700 and upload software without inserting a SIM card. Upload of software, however,
requires an Administrator user name and password.
