6.5 Prepare the STM SatLink VSAT for Normal Operation
The connection to the Internet over the satellite network should now be tested and found working. The
only thing left is then the final configuration to prepare the STM SatLink VSAT for normal operation.
The STM SatLink VSAT must be started and user must be logged in with minimum privilege level 2 (e.g.
install user) before completing the following operations.
1) Click on the Satellite option under Configuration in the SatLink VSAT home page and Configure
the STM SatLink VSAT to automatically start the receiver by setting Auto Start to "ON". The VSAT
will automatically acquire the forward link.
Setting the RX auto start on will ensure that the receiver is started automatically after e.g. power
failure, link failure, Hub restart, or a software failure, etc. without needing user intervention.
