ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT


This guide was designed to be easy to read and follow. It is organized based on the steps
needed to configure the Wave Lite and Linphone SIP apps with your SkyLink device.

SIP APP SETTINGS


SIP calls use the built-in SIP server on the SkyLink and translate to the Iridium phone lines.
SkyLink’s SIP feature provides excellent call quality compared to conventional Iridium calling.

NOTE: You do NOT need to dial an initial 9 or any other digit to reach an outside line. Phone
numbers in your smart device phonebook should be preformatted with the correct country
codes, etc.

Test Number Test Type Test Function


Performs a local echo test to verify/test
SIP from your smart device to the
717 Local Echo Test gateway (SkyLink) and back, including
testing for delays and call quality.

Makes a test call to the Iridium


network. If successful, will play the
5555 Iridium Test Phone following message: “Cannot make
emergency call.”
