 to reset the cradle.   

 

9)

 

Disconnect the power supply cord and insert your SIM card. Refer to 

Inserting SIM 

Card

10)

 

Re-connect the power supply cord. 

Note:  The cradle’s LED will be red (see LED 1). The LEDs of Tx/Rx and Link will flash by 

turns at the time interval of 0.25 seconds for about 30 seconds, indicating the 

cradle is in initialization process. Then, two conditions are encountered: (1) If the 
LED of Tx/Rx flashes, it means initialization fails due to incorrect PIN; (2) If the 

LED of Link flashes, it means initialization is done successfully – correct PIN or PIN 
not required.
