MOUNTING - BATTERY POWER 

See manual for external battery pack. Connect power cable from 
external battery back to battery power connector (4) of the CMi6160.

ANTENNA CONNECTION

If the CMi6160 is equipped with internal antenna no additional actions 
need to be taken. If external antenna is required disconnect the internal 
antenna (if it is mounted) from MCX connector of CMi6160. See picture 
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.

MOUNTING

Before mounting the module in the meter, make sure that a SIM card is 
installed in the SIM card slot (5) as illustrated above. 

NOTE!

 

Please note that the SIM card must be inserted as illustrated 

below. If it is inserted upside down it can easily damage the SIM slot.

Open the calculator by folding down the side catches.
Lock the module into the appropriate slot (preferable slot 2, mandatory 
when internal antenna is used) and carefully connect the pre-formed 
ribbon cable at both ends.
Close the lid and check the meter for correct operation by pressing the 
push button. Apply tamper evident seal of the housing lid if the meter 
functions correctly.

NOTE

• 

Electrostatic-sensitive devices. Please observe the  
necessary ESD protective measures when installing  
the device.
