Installing a SIM Card and SD Card

When and where to use:

 Each L6Q camera requires an activated SIM card to connect to the Internet

and upload detections to PlateSearch or Client Portal. A slot for an optional SD card is also provided
for additional onboard storage to buffer detections in the event of connection loss.

NOTE: 

The SIM card and optional SD card must be installed before powering the unit on for the

first time.

Procedure:

1

Remove the L6Q Camera, Camera Battery Tray, USB-C Cable, and the Pin & Torx Tool from
the box or Rapid Deployment Carry Case.

2

To identify the slot type and proper card orientation in the battery compartment, locate the SIM
and SD Card slots. Refer to the label next to each slot.
