The M!DGE/MG102 Wireless Routers are designed for indoor use. Do not expose the communication
module to extreme ambient conditions. Protect the communication module against dust, moisture and
high temperature.
We remind the users of the duty to observe the restrictions concerning the utilization of radio devices
at petrol stations, in chemical plants or in the course of blasting works in which explosives are used.
Switch off the communication module when traveling by plane.
You must proceed with increased caution when using the communication module in close proximity of
personal medical devices, such as cardiac pacemakers or hearing aids.
M!DGE/MG102 Wireless Routers may cause interference if it is in the proximity of TV sets, radio receiv-
ers and personal computers.
After configuration it is recommended that you should create a copy or backup of the configuration
settings that are stored in the memory of the device.
The configuration data can be downloaded using the Web Manager.
Do not work at the antenna installation during a lightning.
Always keep a distance bigger than 40 cm from the antenna in order to reduce your exposure to elec-
tromagnetic fields below the legal limits. This distance applies to Lambda/4 and Lambda/2 antennas.
Bigger distances apply for antennas with higher gain.
For outdoor installations, use antennas with overvoltage protection limiting the voltage to 1500 V.
Consult the manual for the installation. Adhere to the instructions documented in the user manual.
3. Installation
M!DGE/MG102 Wireless Routers are designed for mounting on a panel using through holes or a DIN
rail mounting kit or to be put on a worktop. Please consider the safety instructions in section 2.
M!DGE/MG102 Wireless Routers will only operate reliably over the cellular network if there is a good
signal. For many applications a flexible stub antenna will be suitable but in some circumstances it may
be necessary to use a remote antenna with an extension cable to allow the antenna itself to be positioned
to provide the best possible signal reception. RACOM can supply a range of suitable antennas.
Step 1 – Installing the SIM card
Insert a SIM card into the SIM socket. If the router has two SIM card sockets, use the first one. Make
sure the SIM is suitable for data transmission.
Step 2 – Connecting the GSM/UMTS antenna
Fit a GSM/UMTS antenna. Contact RACOM for suitable antennas.
Step 3 – Connecting the GPS antenna (if applicable)
Connect the GPS antenna cable to the GPS antenna connector.
