IMPORTANT! Please download and install the 2 Apps: “IsatHub
Control” and “IsatHub Voice” from the App Store or Play Store
using your broadband internet connection prior to using this device.
Step 1
Set the iSavi on a stable surface and unfold the unit so that the
larger flat surface points up and towards the equator. Press and hold the
power button for 5 seconds until the 4 arrow lights on top turn green.
The iSavi requires a recent GPS fix to operate so do not place it on a
metal surface or near any electrical interference.
Step 2
Connect your phone/tablet to the iSavi Wi-Fi network. The Wi-Fi
network name appears on a label on the bottom of the iSavi as “Default SSID:
iSavi-XXXXXXX”. The Wi-Fi password also appears there as “SSID PW:”. Note
that the password is case-sensitive and must be entered exactly as it appears
on the label. Only after you connect to the Wi-Fi network should you start
the IsatHub Control App and or IsatHub Voice App on your phone/tablet and
log in. Be sure to use lower case:
App username: admin App password: 1234
Dialing FROM your iSavi Terminal (00 + Country Code + Number)
Step 3
Refine your aim and register the iSavi with
the Inmarsat network. The 3 Inmarsat satellites are
located in the center of the 3 colored circles on the
map below. The elevation angle gets higher the
closer to the center you get. A signal of 40dB or
better is required. For exact pointing (Elevation and
Direction) tap “Pointing Assist”.
Next tap “Connect to network”. This will register the
iSavi with the Network. Voice calls are now possible
using the IsatHub Voice App (see reverse).
To connect to the Internet, proceed to step 4.
To place a voice call from your terminal, launch the IsatHub Voice App and dial
00 followed by the country code and phone number you are dialing, then tap
the receiver button to start the call.
The country code for the US, Canada and Bahamas is 1.
Therefore, to dial Explorer’s number in Florida, you would dial
00 1 954 763 8650
To dial the terminal from a landline phone (from the US or Canada) dial 011 870
and the rest of your iSavi number. International access codes vary by the
country the caller is calling from. Incoming calls are billed to the party calling.
Your iSavi Voice Number is a 12 digit number
beginning with 870 and has 9 more digits:
870-xxx-xxx-xxx
