MONTHLY MAINTENANCE CHECKS
We recommend monthly maintenance checks of the unit for optimal
functionality . (See pages 16–19 for a convenient
Maintenance Log .)
The steps below should be followed every month to ensure unit is
ready when needed:
1 . Determine you are within good cellular range .
2 . Press the Power Button (see 1 on page 4) . An LED light will indicate the
gateway is powered on .
3 . Open backpack and press Battery Meter on the front of the Spine (see 8
on page 4) . A fully charged PDN will show 100% on Battery Meter .
4 . With backpack open, ensure Cellular Gateway adequately boots by checking
status lights via gateway viewing window (see 9 on page 4) .
Note: Status light availability is based upon your selected gateway model.
5 . After the gateway has connected to the cellular network, log your device(s)
into the available PDN WiFi network using your unique credentials .
6 . Once logged in, access the Internet, making sure you can view multiple
pages and not simply information that has been cached .
7 . Once you have established effective Internet access, log off the network
and press the unit’s Power Button . The LED light will turn off, indicating
gateway services have been turned off . Avoid leaving the gateway on when
not in use, as it will continue to draw power from the battery if left on .
