Can anyone point the terminal?
Yes. Each terminal has detailed instructions on how to point it toward the satellite. They all have an audible beeper that raises in pitch when the satellite is found. Simply get the highest pitch possible and press the “connect” button. There is software that you will install on your laptop called “BGAN Launchpad”. When you run this, it will communicate with any terminal’s GPS and shows you what angle and direction to point the terminal in order to connect, taking out all guesswork. Some terminals have a built in compass so finding the correct direction is not difficult. Pointing normally takes between 1 to 3 minutes.
