Availability of airtime services
To be able to establish a data connection or make a call the SIM card
installed in the AVIATOR 200/300/350 system must be activated by a
service provider. This is taken care of during installation and configuration
of the system. The service provider handles SwiftBroadband system
activation, billing and technical support that is related to the
communication network. For information on service providers go to
Inmarsat’s web site, Partner search
(http://www.inmarsat.com/partners/search-for-partner/).
The AVIATOR 200/300/350 system is operational and ready to use when
the aircraft is powered up and the aircraft’s navigational system has finished
its initialization. Check whether your aircraft is equipped with a sign saying
that the satcom system is ready for use before you start your application.
System default settings
The telephone (2-Wire) and ISDN lines are available as soon as the system
has registered with the SwiftBroadband service.
Per default Internet, e-mail and other IP services are available as plug-and-
play, no further configuration is needed. The system is set up to
automatically start the standard background IP connection when
connecting a PC, Smartphone or other device using Ethernet or WLAN.
With the plug-and-play functionality a computer
automatically establishes a connection to the
Internet and starts transferring data as soon as you
start using the Internet, e-mail or other IP services.
See Unintended use of bandwidth on page 30 for
information how to set up your computer to avoid
unintended and possibly costly use of bandwidth.
