Before you can use your
inReach® device, you must activate it.
-
Create an account, and select a satellite subscription at
inreach.garmin.com.
-
Turn on the device.
-
Follow the on-screen instructions.
-
When prompted, go outdoors to an open area with a clear view of the sky.
-
Wait while the device communicates with the
Iridium® satellite network.
NOTE:
It may take up to 20 minutes to activate your device. The device must send and receive several messages, which takes longer than sending a single message during regular use.
