Veripos Help Desk at +44 (0) 1224 527 104 or visit www.veripos.com/support.html
. Provide the SAL
number and the receiver's Veripos Serial Number (VSN). To obtain the receiver-specific VSN, enter the
following command:

The log displays the VSN in the first field following the log header and also displays the status of your
subscription.
To activate a subscription, the receiver must be powered and tracking an L-Band Veripos satellite prior to
the planned activation time. Use the
ASSIGNLBANDBEAM command to configure the receiver to track
the Veripos satellite.

The log displays the L-Band serial number in the fifth field following the log header. The log also provides
the status of your subscription. Refer to the LBANDINFO log in the OEM6 Family Firmware Reference

To activate the subscription, the receiver must be powered and tracking an L-Band satellite. When
advised by OmniSTAR of the appropriate satellite frequency and data link rate for your location, use the

To confirm tracking of an L-Band signal, log the L-Band status information by entering the following
command:
log lbandstat
Subscriptions to the Veripos Apex and Ultra marine services must be obtained directly from
