Introduction

Your Thuraya IP+ portable, high-speed data communications via satellite. Using “Always On” technology, you can remain connected to the Internet while only sending or receiving the data that you need at speeds of up to 444kbits/s, just as if you were sitting at your office desk. Thuraya IP+ works with your computer using an Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection much like commercially available wireless routers. Note that the Wi-Fi Access Point in the Thuraya IP+ uses a separate subnet and DHCP server than the wired Ethernet port. An internal router allows IP traffic to flow seamlessly between the two subnets and out over the satellite link.

While Thuraya IP+ operates very similarly to other data modems that you may be familiar with, there are a few important operating differences to note. Please read this user guide carefully to understand all the aspects of operating your Thuraya IP+.

STEP 2: POWER CONNECTION AND BATTERY CHARGING

1. The Thuraya IP+ will charge the battery automatically when power is connected.

2. Plug in Power cable and charge the battery for at least three hours.

STEP 3: OBTAIN INITIAL GPS USING THE THURAYA IP+

1. Put the Thuraya IP+ outside on a flat surface with a clear view of the sky away from building, trees and other obstructions.

2. Power up Satellite Modem by pressing the Power button.

3. Once powered up, Thuraya IP+

will automatically attempt to locate itself using GPS. This may take up to five minutes. The small GPS satellite icons on the display (shaded area in the picture below) show how many GPS satellites are in view at any given time. You need all three satellite icons to be on solidly to obtain a GPS fix. If any are missing or flashing then the GPS signal is being blocked.

When the GPS icon stops flashing then Thuraya IP+

has successfully updated its GPS

position.

STEP 4: DATA CONNECTIONS

Connect the Thuraya IP+ to your PC using Ethernet. It is also possible to connect using the wireless LAN facility, but use the wired connection for the first time setup.

ETHERNET

Connect the Ethernet cable to your laptop’s network interface and insert the other end of the connector into the Thuraya IP+.

STEP 5: POINTING TO THE SATELLITE

1. Thuraya IP+ is controlled through a web browser interface (wMMI). To activate the wMMI, open the browser on your laptop. Enter http://192.168.128.100 browser URL address field.

Note: You may want to store this as a browser bookmark.

2. If you have PIN security enabled on your SIM, you will be prompted to enter your PIN before proceeding.

Note: You must have a valid GPS location for the compass direction and

Antenna Angle to be displayed. If the GPS is not valid, go back to step 3 to obtain a GPS fix.

Compass Direction

Antenna Angle

3. Look at the wMMI home page display and note the compass bearings and elevations for both Thuraya IP+ satellites in the “Satellite Location” section. The recommended satellite for your location will be highlighted in green. With the Thuraya IP+ terminal upside down, use the integrated compass to determine the direction of the recommended satellite. You must be able to obtain a clear view of the satellite in the sky for the Thuraya IP+ to connect to the network. If the recommended satellite is obstructed from your location, consider using the alternate satellite instead. If neither satellite is accessible from your location, you will need to move to a location that has visibility to at least one of the satellites.

4. Once you have determined the best satellite to use, move the antenna stand to the correct elevation angle using the integrated protractor on the hinge. Recall that the elevation angle is indicated on the wMMI home page. With the elevation angle correctly set, place the Thuraya IP+ on a flat surface with the antenna facing in the direction of the

satellite as determined in step 3.

5. You can optimise the receive signal strength by observing the signal strength display on the Thuraya IP+

while slowly rotating the Thuraya IP+ a few degrees clockwise and counter clockwise. Find the direction that maximizes the signal strength. Likewise, slowly

raise and lower the antenna a few degrees and find the elevation that maximizes the signal strength. This step fine tunes the pointing of the antenna in the direction of the Thuraya IP+ satellite.

Receive Signal Strength on the Thuraya IP+ Display

6. Once the Thuraya IP+ obtains sufficient signal strength from the satellite it will automatically connect and establish an IP data session. Check this on the home page by confirming that the “Network Status” line shows “Connected”.

Congratulations! Your Thuraya IP+ is successfully connected. You should now be able to send and receive data from your laptop to the internet.

Note: If you are unable to successfully connect to the Internet, ensure

that nothing but open sky is between the Thuraya IP+ and the satellite. If the view is blocked by trees, mountains, buildings, metalized glass or similar objects then you must relocate the Thuraya IP+. Additional assistance can be found in the troubleshooting section towards the end of the Thuraya IP+ User Guide.

Do not stand in front of the Antenna

Thuraya IP+

emits radio frequency energy when in the transmit mode. To avoid injury, do not place head or other body parts in front of the antenna when system is operational.

Quick Reference

This section serves as a reference guide, identifying the key operational aspects of using the Thuraya IP+ their functions.

Global Positioning System Operation

The Thuraya IP+ contains an integrated Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver that is used to provide location information. GPS location information is required for system access, and the reception of a new GPS location is attempted automatically every time Thuraya IP+

system and the Controls and Indicators on Thuraya IP+ and

is powered on.

For optimum GPS signal reception, make sure Thuraya IP+ horizontal placement. Since GPS receivers must “see” a large part of the sky without obstructions from buildings, mountains or trees, it may be necessary to take your Thuraya IP+ obtain a new GPS location in a less favourable circumstance, but the time to completion may be longer.

Once updated, Thuraya IP+ a more convenient working area, such as inside a building by a window facing toward the satellite.

Once you have established a session on Thuraya IP+ location while you remain connected in the “Always On” condition. This is convenient if you intend to operate from one location for an extended period of time since there is no need to move Thuraya IP+ to refresh the GPS receiver. Also, your stored GPS location remains good for a period of time even if you power down and move a short distance between sessions. When you believe this is the case, simply skip the GPS location step and complete the Thuraya IP+ satellite pointing operation prior to going directly onto the network. Be sure to carefully point your unit every time it is moved.

STORED GPS LOCATION

The most recent GPS location is stored in Thuraya IP+ even when powered down. Upon power up, the Thuraya IP+ will attempt to update this GPS location since the Thuraya system will only allow access if your GPS location is not too old. If Thuraya IP+ has a valid GPS location then the GPS icon on the display will go from flashing to solid. Likewise, the wMMI will indicate if the currently available GPS location is valid or invalid.

PDP context is activated with the new rate selection. If the rate selection did not change as a result of the selection, then no PDP context change occurs.

RECEIVE SIGNAL STRENGTH DISPLAY

The lower row of the LCD is dedicated to RSSI (signal strength) information. This is used to monitor incoming signal strength from the Thuraya satellite and permit pointing or re-pointing to occur at any time during operation. The display provides both a graphical and digital indication of the signal strength.

The digital RSSI indication consists of a value between zero and 99. The graphical RSSI indication is a 50-element bar graph of the RSSI.

The RSSI display updates rapidly for at least five minutes after a satellite signal has been acquired or reacquired. After that acquisition, the RSSI display may be updated less rapidly to conserve power if the modem is running on battery. Hint: If the rate is reduced to save power, the rapid RSSI update mode can be re-enabled for 5 minutes if you short press the Modify button while the status display is present.

Audible Pointing Indicator

An audible pointing indicator provides an audible representation of the signal strength during antenna pointing. When on, the indicator emits pointing tones that increase in tempo as the pitch increases. If the satellite is not found, one tone is followed by a pause. The indicator always defaults to off when the unit powers on. Use a short press of the Connect button to toggle the audio pointing indicator on and off.

the wMMI and the base address for the Ethernet DHCP server. This subnet must remain unique from the WLAN subnet address being used.

DHCP Server

: The DHCP server for Ethernet can be enabled or disabled as needed. If disabled, a local static IP addressing scheme must be used by connected Ethernet devices. This setting has no impact on the WLAN operation which uses a dedicated DHCP server.

Netmode

: This command allows for NAT or Relay Mode to be selected. The NAT (Network Address Translation) mode allows multiple devices to be connected via the Ethernet and WLAN ports. This is the default operating mode. Relay Mode is used for special situations where a single local device needs to be assigned the same address as the Global IP Address assigned to the user terminal. The connected device is assigned a LAN address initially, but with a very short DHCP lease time. When the Global IP Address is assigned to the Thuraya IP+

it is flowed through to the connected device via a DHCP address reassignment. All WAN traffic flows through to the single connected device with no port or address translation. Relay Mode is only available on the Ethernet port and DHCP must be enabled at the same time.

Global IP Address:

Obtain Address Automatically

: If this button is selected, Thuraya IP+ uses an IP address automatically assigned by the network during the period when the Modem connects to the network.

Static IP Address

: If this button is selected, the Modem uses the IP address you enter in the associated IP Address field. You should check this box and enter an IP address only if directed to do so by your Service Provider.

DNS:

Obtain DNS Address Automatically

: If this button is selected, the Thuraya IP+ uses a Primary Host Domain Name Service (DNS) automatically assigned by the network during the period when the Modem connects to the network.

Static DNS Host

: If this button is selected, the Modem uses the DNS address you enter in the DNS Address field. You should check this box and enter an IP address only if directed to do so by your Service Provider.

DMZ Host

: If you wish to route incoming network originated IP traffic to a specific connected device, enter that device’s IP address in this parameter. Be careful to establish a suitable firewall on this device to protect against malicious attacks from the Internet.

APN Selection

: If use of multiple Internet Service Providers is required, you can modify the current Access Point Name (APN) value. You should modify these fields only if directed to do so by your Service Provider. The choices are the following: Streaming-CBR, Refill, <BLANK> (enter the desired name) and Disabled.

SAVE/ CANCEL

: If you want the values you have entered to be processed, click the SAVE button, exit the wMMI, and reboot your computer. You will also need to turn Thuraya IP+ off and then on again so that the new settings can take effect. If you want the values you have entered to be ignored, click the CANCEL button and the Network Settings remain as they were with no reboot required.

ADVANCED SETTINGS SCREEN

The Advanced Settings Screen allows you to modify several key operating parameters in the unit.

Satellite Search Method

: Normal is the default method to use unless your Service Provider specifies the Full Method. The Full method takes longer and utilizes more resources since it will search all possible frequencies for Thuraya IP+

service. This full

search can take up to 20 minutes.

Auto Power ON

: When enabled, the terminal will automatically power up when

external DC is applied.

Buffering

: When buffering is enabled the Thuraya IP+ can store more data to handle bursts of IP traffic from connected devices. When buffering is disabled, only the minimum of traffic is stored to reduce latency. Disable buffering for low latency traffic such as voice or video.

Antenna Pointing comes up each time Thuraya IP+

Glossary

APN: Access Point Name. APNs can be assigned to each external network interface

to allow communications among multiple Internet Service Providers (ISPs). If use of multiple ISPs is required in your network, on Thuraya IP+ Settings screen you can enable APN and enter the value supplied by your Service Provider.

DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. DHCP is a communications protocol

that lets network administrators manage centrally and automate the assignment of IP addresses in an organization's network. With use of the Internet Protocol, each machine that can connect to the Internet needs a unique IP address. You must make sure that the Windows network settings on your PC are set to allow the network to choose IP settings automatically.

DNS: Domain Name Service, a static, hierarchical name service for TCP/IP hosts. The

network administrator configures the DNS with a list of host names and IP addresses, allowing users of workstations configured to query the DNS to specify remote systems by host names rather than IP addresses. On Thuraya IP+ Network Settings screen, a primary and possibly a secondary DNS address supplied by your Service Provider must be assigned.

wMMI Network

wMMI

Ethernet: Ethernet is a local area networking method used widely throughout the

computer industry.

GGSN: Gateway GPRS Support Node.

GPRS: General Packet Radio System.

GPS: Global Positioning System. When the GPS receiver in Thuraya IP+

on a GPS satellite, the receiver computes and stores the Modem’s location on earth. That location is used in the Pointing Process to obtain your location relative to the Thuraya Satellite.

NAT: Network Address Translation.

Normal Operational Mode: In this mode, Thuraya IP+

allowing you to perform standard system activities such as Internet browsing. The other mode of Modem operation is Pointing Mode.

PDP: Packet Data Protocol.

Pointing Mode: In this mode, using Thuraya IP+

referencing the Pointing Screen for indications of signal strength, you manipulate the Modem antenna to get the optimum Thuraya Satellite signal strength for your network connection. Pointing is required during Modem set-up or if the Modem has been moved from its previous location. Once you have obtained the best antenna position, you can enter Normal Operational Mode and be ready to perform standard activities.

Protractor: An instrument that measures angles, Thuraya IP+

protractor provides the current angle of the antenna so that you can adjust it to the antenna angle specified on the Pointing Screen.

QoS: Quality of Service.

SIM: Subscriber Identification Module. Your Service Provider issues you a SIM,

containing your SIM Personal Identification Number (PIN) and other securityrelated information. You insert the SIM into Thuraya IP+

SIM holder as part of Modem hardware setup. If you configure the Modem to enable SIM PIN security, each time you invoke the Modem wMMI after turning on the Modem, PIN authorisation is required in order to use the system.

SIM PIN: A Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) Personal Identification Number

(PIN) may be supplied by your Service Provider. If SIM PIN entry is enabled on Thuraya IP+

wMMI Security Management screen, a prompt requests you to enter the SIM PIN each time you run the wMMI. This helps prevent unauthorised use of your SIM.

Static IP Address: A static Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number that is assigned

to a computer by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to be its permanent address on the Internet. Computers use IP addresses to locate and talk to each other on the Internet. If Static IP addressing is enabled on Thuraya IP+

wMMI Network Settings screen, you must enter an IP address supplied by your Service Provider in the Static Public Network IP Address field that follows.

Status Code: A number which uniquely references an event or condition in a

hardware or software system. In Thuraya IP+, if there is a fault detected, the status code and a description are displayed at the bottom of the Modem wMMI Home and Status screens.
