SIM PIN
Do you need a SIM PIN?
If a computer is connected when you start up the terminal, you can access the web interface
and enter the SIM PIN here.
To enter the SIM PIN
If your SIM card requires a PIN, and the PIN has not yet been entered, you must enter it. Until
you have entered the PIN you can only upload software and see the DASHBOARD. Access to all
other parts of the web interface and to the satellite network requires a PIN. You have the
following options:
• Access the web interface and enter the PIN there.
• Use an analogue phone connected to the terminal.
• Use an IP Handset from Cobham SATCOM
To enter the PIN using the web interface
To enter the PIN in the web interface, do as follows:
1. On a computer connected to the terminal, open your browser and enter http://ut.bgan or
the IP address of the terminal in the address bar
(default IP address: http://192.168.0.1).
You may not have to enter a SIM PIN to access the terminal. This depends on
whether or not the use of a SIM PIN is enabled on your SIM card.
The administrator can enable and disable the use of a SIM PIN. For details, see To
enable or disable the use of a PIN on page 80.
Using the web interface with an administrator user name and password you can
change the PIN and enable or disable the use of a PIN. For further information, see
Configure the SIM PIN on page 80
