5.2.2 Antenna connection
If the CMi6160 is equipped with internal antenna no additional actions need to be taken. If external
antenna is used, disconnect the internal antenna (if it is mounted) from MCX connector of CMi6160. See
Figure 4 below for internal antenna positioning.
Connect an external antenna (released by the supplier) with MCX connector to the module CMi6160 in
the meter. Make a hole in rubber gromets/sealing and push the mcx connector through the
gromet/sealing. Make sure thicker part of antenna cable is in gromet/seal. Push the connector gently into
the antenna connector (7) on the module.

Module activation
Upon delivery, CMi6160 will be set to passive mode, which means that no messages will be transmitted
from the module. Please make sure a SIM card (size: Nano) has been mounted before activating the
module. There are two ways to activate the module:
1. Press down the push button for at least 5 seconds until the green LED lights up, then release the
button. CMi6160 will confirm start-up by flashing its red and green LEDs for one second.
