# Changing the Configuration of the BaseStation Plus

The configuration of the BaseStation Plus is typically one of two possibilities:

* It acts exactly like a BlueBoat network Wi-Fi access point
* It is an access point on its own network, the Omnitrack network.

To change the configuration of the BaseStation Plus, you will need the following items:

* BaseStation Plus (with included antenna and USB-C cable)
* A computer—most PCs and laptops running Windows 10 or newer, macOS, or Linux will work well. You can view the system requirements [here](https://bluerobotics.com/store/blueboat/blueboat/#tab-technical-details). Android tablets, Apple tablets, and Chromebooks are not recommended and are currently not supported.
* Script files to set the configuration of the radio. Script files are found [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1fNyF7ID1RcsmVvgu2GpdUKvIFknjR08f). (file Omnitrack Wi-Fi Script Bundle.zip)
* You need to know which scripts to install for your desired configurtation. If you are using an Omnitrack, follow this [configuration guide](https://docs.ceruleansonar.com/c/omnitrack-user-guide/omnitrack-wi-fi-module-system/choosing-wi-fi-radio-configurations).

We have instructions here for Windows. If you are using macOS or Linux you can adapt the instructions for those operating systems, found [here](https://bluerobotics.com/learn/blueboat-software-setup/).

It’s also a good idea to **fully charge** your BaseStation prior to starting the software setup process. 

1. Screw the BaseStation Plus antenna onto the antenna connector on the BaseStation Plus. The antenna clip installs between the BaseStation Plus and the antenna. Orient the antenna so it sticks straight up when in use.

2. Unscrew the cover off the USB-C bulkhead connector.<br>

3. Use the included USB-C cable to connect the BaseStation to a USB power source. This could be a USB port on your computer, a USB wall charger, a USB power bank, etc.

4. Press the charging button on the BaseStation panel to begin charging. You need to hold the button for about one second to turn it on or off. The orange indicator LED above the charging button and the battery status LEDs should light up to show that the battery is charging.

The orange indicator LED above the charging button will turn off when charging is complete.
