2.2 Installation 

2.2.1 Install SIM/UIM Card 

TG501 supports normal SIM/UIM only, so if you’re using a Micro SIM or Nano SIM card, you may need to use 
a Micro SIM or Nano SIM to Normal SIM adapter.   
Make sure your RTU is powered off, then use a needle object(such as a pen) to push the button near the SIM 

tray, it will flick out. Put the SIM/UIM card to SIM tray with right direction, insert it to RTU 

and make sure it’s 

locked and tightly matched. 

 

 

Warning: Never install SIM/UIM card when RTU is powered on.
