11.1 OTA (Over the Air)
OTA,an abbreviation of Over–the-Air, is a standard for the transmission of software for equipment through a broadcast
system.OTA is simply an alternative method for downloading software versions. However, the manufacturers reserve
theright for deciding the release of the software for their products by beaming the latest software versions over the air
viaantenna systems. Note that OTA is only limited to certain geographical regions mainly due to different antennas
havingdifferent footprints(area where the signal can be received). The software update via satellite system will only
occurunder the following circumstances.
1. The equipment should have appropriate loader software.
Caution Pleasenote that if normal loader software is not equipped, the product may not be updated or
operateproperly after software update.
** 2. The manufacturer decides to release the software via a designated antenna system.
3. The equipment must be tuned properly to the same antenna equivalent to that of the manufacturer.
4. Update software when the signal strength quality is high. If the weather is not favorable and the signal strength
qualityis not recommendable, perform the software update later.
