2. Quick Start Guide
The COM111 modem is primarily used for IP communications, for use in
dial-up (GSM/CSD) mode see Section 5.
This quick start section is split into two sections showing two common modes
of operation. You will need the modem with its SIM card, a power supply,
aerial and the programming cable (supplied in the CS-3G kits). You may
also need a serial to USB convertor.
2.1 Setting up a system with a fixed IP address
This section covers systems which have a network service with a fixed IP
address.
Make sure you have a data enabled SIM with the security PIN disabled and
enabled for data use. To insert the SIM card eject the card tray from the end
of the modem by pushing in the button with a small screwdriver or pen. Put
the SIM card in the small card tray taking care the angled corner of the card
matches the moulding in the tray. The gold plated contacts of the card
should be uppermost and remain so when the card tray is pushed back into
the modem.

Now the modem and logger should be setup using the Mobile Data
Assistant package. To do this you require a modem programming cable
(a grey 9 to 15 way serial cable), plus a USB-Serial convertor if needed,
a cable to allow communication with the data logger and a power
supply to power the modem and logger. (Please note setup via the
USB connector built into the modem is not supported.)

Install the Mobile Data Assistant package and start it running. You will
be presented with a screen like that shown below.
