What's in the box?
You should receive the S.A.T. device along with Micro-USB power cable, Rotator DIN cable, and a TRS
cable to interface with Icom radios. A Micro-USB power adapter is not included.
How is the clock set?
The clock on the S.A.T. is set automatically by the web browser that opens the S.A.T. dashboard. You
can choose from various time display settings in the LOCATION panel.
I get an error why I download TLEs
First make sure that the S.A.T. is not in access point mode and is connected to a WiFi network that has
internet access. When in access point mode the IP address on the LCD will be 192.168.4.1 and there
will be a WiFi network available on your mobile device with the name 'CSN_SAT_XXXX' where XXXX is
the SAT serial number.
The S.A.T. does not support https addresses for the TLE url (note the 's' at the end of 'http'). Usually
you can simply remove the 's' from the address and try again. If it still doesn't work, and you need to
have that list, you'll have to download it to your device. Then you can upload it using the "Custom TLE
Files" procedure described above.
The following TLE sources and know to work well:
AMSAT nasabare.txt (updated weekly)

CSN nasabare.txt (a copy of AMSATs nasabare.txt) -
http://www.csntechnologies.net/SAT/nasabare.txt
CSN csnbare.txt (same satellites as nasabare.txt but generated with Celestrack data, updated
daily) -

How do I factory reset?
You can find the Factory Reset button in the About box in the web interface.
Another way to factory reset is remove power from the SAT and short the CI-V cable contacts with
aluminum foil. When the SAT is powered up with the cable shorted it will enter reset mode. You will
then have two opportunities to release the short, depending of what type of reset you want. Watch
the SAT's LCD and after a few seconds it will tell that if you release the short it will reset the WiFi. If
you keep holding the short it will then tell you if you release that it do a full factory reset. When
finished it will ask you to reboot the SAT which you can do by removing the USB power plug, waiting
a couple of seconds, then reinsert it.
QRZ Lookups Are Not Working
Various web browser plugings may be preventing the S.A.T. from accessing the QRZ.com. Try
disabling these plugins or adding exceptions if possible.
I cant connect the S.A.T. to my WiFi network!
The S.A.T. can only connect to 2.4Ghz networks. The S.A.T. searches for available access points when
NETWORK panel is opened and also when the REFRESH button is clicked. Allow a few seconds for the
search to complete. The discovered networks are then displayed in the WIFI AP selection box.
