The SD card element is not currently in use, but could be exploited in future evolutions of the magicGNSS User Terminal device.

2.2. GETTING STARTED

Setup Wizard The first time you switch on your magicGNSS User Terminal, a setup wizard will help you to configure

the basic settings for your device:

 Date  Time

Inserting a SIM card Your device accepts one micro-SIM card in the slot. You can access the SIM tray from the exterior of the device.

Remove the cover that protects the micro-SIM and SD slot (located at the right side of your device).

Insert the micro-SIM card into the slot, making sure the metal pins are at the bottom and facing backwards (i.e. towards the back of the device).

Push the card in until you notice a slight click, which indicates that it has been inserted correctly. If the card is not inserted correctly, the device may not recognise it and its content will not be available.

Make sure you replace the protective cover so that dust and dirt cannot enter the device, and to avoid accidentally ejecting the micro-SIM card.

To remove the micro-SIM card, follow the steps above in reverse. Pushing the card in until you notice a slight click. This action will extract the card with your fingers.

Make sure you replace the protective cover so that dust and dirt cannot enter the device, and to avoid accidentally ejecting the micro-SIM card.

Your magicGNSS User Terminal only accepts micro-SIM card. The SIM card can be provided by a local cellular network service provider.

To prevent damaging the equipment insert/remove the micro-SIM card carefully.

Switching the Device On and Off To switch on your magicGNSS User Terminal press and hold down the power button located on the top

of the device for a few seconds. To switch off your device, hold down the power button for a few seconds. Select Power off. If you have inserted micro-SIM card into your device, you will need to enter the PIN when you switch

it on. Every time your device detects a new SIM, a pop-up window will appear informing you to enter the new PIN.

If you briefly press the power button, the screen will switch off but not the device.

Charging the device Your magicGNSS User Terminal contains a rechargeable (non-removable) 3100 mAh battery, which is

charged via the micro-USB port located at the right side of the device. A USB (type A) to micro-USB (type A) cable is provided with the device for charging the battery. To charge it, follow these simple steps:

a. Using a mains adapter (not included):

1. Plug the USB cable into the mains adapter.

2. Connect the mains adapter to any standard plug socket (220 V/50 Hz).

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the micro-USB port on your device.

b. Using a laptop or desktop computer:

1. Connect the USB cable to a compatible USB port on your computer.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the micro-USB port on your device.

For optimum charging, we recommend using a 5 V 2.1 A charger with your device.

If you foresee that the remaining battery charge could be not enough for completing the SBAS/PPP process, we recommend to connect the device to an external power source and to select the “charge” option before starting the SBAS/PPP execution.

Charging times and recommendations The battery in your magicGNSS User Terminal is non-removable. If it is removed by anyone other

than the magicGNSS User Terminal Technical Support your device could be damaged and the Warranty invalidated.

Allowing the battery to charge fully (approx. 2h 30 min) is recommended when you charge it for the first time as this will help calibrate the battery meter. Bear in mind that some batteries perform better after completing a number of charge/ discharge cycles.

The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. Use and standby times are estimates only.

The time required to charge your device may vary slightly depending on whether it is charged via the mains adapter or via a computer USB port, affected by, for example, device settings, features being used, battery condition, and temperature.

If you are going to perform a test and to avoid interrupting the work in the middle of the process, keep in mind the following recommendations. Anticipate the duration of the test, and if you foresee that you can exceed the autonomy time of the device (2 h max performance) and will not have a plug nearby, we suggest the use of Powerbanks as an external support.

If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes before the charging indicator is displayed. When your charger is not in use, unplug it from the electrical plug and the device. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, as overcharging may shorten the battery’s lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.

Transferring Files If you connect your device to a computer using the USB cable, you can also transfer files between the

two devices to/from the internal memory. This will allow you to use, copy or store data, images and text documents on one or both devices.

You can select the file transfer mode when you connect your magicGNSS User Terminal to a computer.

There are a number of ways to transfer files. The steps below will show you how to transfer them via USB:

1. Connect your magicGNSS User Terminal to a computer using the micro-USB to USB cable

provided. Insert the micro-USB connector into the corresponding micro-USB port on the device and the generic USB connector into the corresponding USB port on the computer.

2. Select and copy the desired files onto your device or computer.

3G connection will be interrupted during transfer mode. To recover the 3G connection, it is necessary to finish the file transfer process. Once you disconnect USB cable, PIN code will be required.

After having suspended the 3G connection, caused by file transfer mode, it may take up to 1 minute since the USB is disconnected until it is reconnected to the 3G network.

The first time you want to transfer files from your device to a computer running Windows and vice versa, Windows will attempt to install the relevant drivers. Go to Device manager > magicGNSS, select Update driver / Search Driver software manually. From the common hardware list choose Portable devices and select USB MTP device.

To transfer files from your device to a computer running Mac OS and vice versa, you will need to download and install the free Android File Transfer app to your computer: www.android.com/filetransfer/.

It could be the case that the latest sessions stored on the internal memory seemed to be non-accessible from the USB port. In that case, please turn-off and then turn-on (reboot) the magicGNSS User Terminal device, connect the USB and select the “transfer” mode, and the stored sessions and files will be made accessible.

Do not disconnect the cable while files are being transferred.
