5. Preparing SIM card
Please ensure:
 The SIM must operate on the 2G or 3G network. Most network providers provide 2Gor 3G cover, check with
your supplier.
 There is credit on the SIM (we recommend automatic top-ups)
 The SIM is not PIN protected
 The SIM is set to disable voicemail
 Avoid SIM cards that deactivate automatically if the SIM is not used often (usually after 3 months inactivity).
If you’re SIM will do this and if you’re G033 is likely to be unused for long periods of time; send the G033 an
update request periodically to keep the SIM card active.
Register the SIM card; ensure there is sufficient credit on the card for programming confirmation texts to be sent
from G033 module.
The PIN request option should be disabled from the SIM card before inserting it into the G033 module. To check the
PIN request status of your SIM card, place the card in an unlocked mobile phone and switch the phone on. If
normal calls can be made without entering a PIN number, then it is disabled. Please also make sure voicemail is
disabled before inserting the SIM card into the module.
If a ‘pay as you go’ (PAYG) SIM card is used, it is recommended that users choose to automatically ‘Top-Up’ when
the credit falls below a certain limit. Some PAYG SIM cards will be de-activated by the network if they are not
used to make an outgoing voice call or send an SMS text message within a specific period. To prevent this,
simply send the G033 a text ‘ DQSJ ’ (this can be done through the APP) and G033 will reply with the local time by
text message. This should be done once a month to keep the SIM card active.
5.1. Insert SIM into the SIM card slot
 Write down the SIM number before inserting into G033
 The SIM card should be inserted into the SIM card slot before applying the power.
 Power Up
The G033 module can be powered by 12.0V to 24.0V DC power supply).
Connect a 12.0V DC power supply to the power screw terminals 1 & 2, ensuring positive is connected to terminal 1
and switch on the power supply.

The blue network LED
indicator will initially flash quickly and, once logged onto the network, it will flash more
slowly, approximately once every 2-3 seconds.
 The red power LED will flash at 1 second intervals once the system has finished initialization.
