uBasic Phone Operation
Setting up your Inmarsat phone
Be sure the battery is charged. Your phone is supplied
with a dual volt charger (110/220 volt) and an international
adapter so it can be charged anywhere in the world.
To power the phone on/off
Press and hold the red phone key until phone powers
on or powers off.
Maximizing performance
Having a completely open view of the sky plays a very
important role in ensuring call quality when using an
Inmarsat Satellite phone. Nearby obstructions such as
tall buildings, trees or mountains, can prevent calls, as
they block the signal between the phone’s antenna and
the satellites that facilitate service.
Use this diagram as a guideline
to follow, ensuring that
surrounding obstructions
are low to the ground,
or in the far distance.
Upon arrival at your location of intended use, it is
likely that you will be some distance from where the
handset last registered a GPS fix therefore this may
take longer than usual. It may take up to 5 minutes
to acquire a first fix after travelling. Subsequent fixes
when switching the device on in the same locale will
not take as long.
Stand outside with a clear view of the sky and the
phone antenna pointing upwards. The top left of the
screen will display ‘Inmarsat’ once you are connected
to the satellite. At least 2 signal bars are required to
make and receive calls.
When attempting to receive a signal, it is recommended
that you point the aerial upwards. If you don’t
immediately receive a signal, it may help if you slowly
turn through 360 degrees and once you find a good
signal strength, continue to use that position. With
practice you should be able to do this very quickly.
Before you make a call, your phone needs a GPS fix
so it can be located by the satellite. This happens
automatically, but if a new GPS fix is needed, the
red icon will be displayed. Place the phone in the
open with a clear view of the sky until the red icon
disappears.
