WARNING!
Once the unit starts transmitting remain at least 1 m
clear of the front of the antenna to avoid RF radiation.
There are two methods to aim the satellite terminal:
1. THE HEADSET METHOD: this uses a headset plugged into a jack in the terminal; or
2. THE COMPUTER/ETHERNET METHOD: this requires a computer and an Ethernet cable plugged into the Ethernet switch in the
RAOS electronics box.
Headphone jack
Before mounting the antenna, use the flathead screwdriver to remove
the top end plate to reveal the function button and headphone jack
Mount the antenna. Use the compass to adjust its position to the
direction previously determined. Pivot the terminal on the azimuth
bracket to obtain the desired elevation.
LEDs
Once in pointing mode, insert the headphones into the audio jack, slightly loosen the terminal and adjust its position from side to
side and to the elevation to get optimal signal strength indicated by fast high pitched sounds. Tighten the unit in the optimal
position.
WARNING! If you do not short press the Function button, the unit will start to
6To exit pointing mode, short press the function button (<2 seconds) to exit pointing mode. The terminal will initiate registration with
the network and start transmitting.
Remaining behind the terminal, re-install the end cap and securely fasten the screws to ensure the IP-66 integrity of the terminal.
8
Turn the power breaker in the RAOS electronics cabinet On. The satellite terminal goes through a power-on-self-test (POST)
that takes approximately 15-20 seconds and then the power LED will start flashing for another 15 seconds.
Once the power LED starts flashing, you have 15 seconds to short press (<2 seconds) the function button to enter pointing
mode before the unit starts transmitting. When in pointing mode, the terminal is not transmitting.
Antenna not transmitting Antenna transmitting when LEDs show any of these three states.
Remain 1 m from the front of the antenna

1. Press the Connect button (bottom of electronics box).
2. On your smart device, go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Select the RAOS
network for the serial number of your device (found on a sticker on
the on- board computer.
3. Enter the password: WelcomeFTS, if prompted (only required on
initial setup)
4. Open the FTS360 Config App and press Scan. The station will be
identified by it serial number
5. Connect to the station. Note: only one device can be connected at
the same time.
6. The Cameras Detected portion of the station’s dashboard has two
slots: The top slot corresponds to Pano, the second slot to IR/
Thermal.
COMPUTER/ETHERNET METHOD
Mount the antenna. Use the compass to adjust its position to the direction previously determined. Pivot the terminal on the
azimuth bracket to obtain the desired elevation.
2Turn the power breaker in the RAOS electronics cabinet On. Once power is supplied (the breaker in the RAOS electronics cabinet
is switched On), the satellite terminal will start transmitting within 30 seconds.
Once the terminal is transmitting. Remain at least 1 m clear of the front of
the antenna to avoid RF radiation.
WARNING
Connect the computer to the Ethernet switch in the
electronics cabinet using the Ethernet cable
Enter the terminal IP address, 192.168.1.1, in an internet
browser to open the terminal web configuration page
The Home page displays the Connection, GPS, and
Pointing Info. Use this information and the signal
strength readout to adjust and secure the satellite
terminal in its optimal position.
7. Tap the slot of the camera you wish to configure to commence
live stream. This may take a few minutes.
8. The camera will automatically be configured with the
default settings (hourly image at highest resolution).
9. Adjust the camera’s position based on live stream feed for
desired coverage angle.
10. “Disconnect” from the station. Request an image to confirm
operation of the station and transmission of data. If there is no
cellular connectivity, confirmation can only be done remotely
using FTS 360.
4/4
Remove ethernet cable and secure the electronics cabinet.
7Go to Step D, Configuring Cameras.
NOTE: if you do not Disconnect, any scheduled pictures/video
and interaction with the station via FTS360 cannot occur until
the station automatically disconnects after 20 minutes of
inactivity.
