Configuring the mobile communication 

If  your  logger  is  equipped  with  an  internal  GSM modem,  data  transfer  and  alarm 
messaging  via  mobile  radio  can  be  realised.  For  this  purpose,  a  UMTS-enabled  SIM 
card  (data  contract)  is  required  which  can  be  obtained  from  almost  any  local  mobile 
network operator.  

 

Usually, all the data required to set up mobile data transfer is provided within the 
mobile network contract. Further information can be obtained from the website or 
the hotline of the mobile network operator. If necessary, request guidance for 
setting up data communication in particular. SebaKMT cannot provide any 
specific technical advice in this case. 

 

For mobile communication a number of settings must be made. Proceed as follows: 

Step  Description 

Make sure the logger has been properly prepared for GSM connectivity (see 
page 23). 

In the 

Communication

 segment of the window, tick the 

GSM active

 checkbox. 

 

Click the 

Configure GSM 

button.  

Result: 

The GSM configuration dialogue appears.  

Enter all the requested data. (You find more information about the configuration 
dialogue below in the text). 

Click 

Test

 to perform a GSM test. This test checks the existence and quality of 

the cellular connection. (You find more information about testing the GSM 
connection below in the text). 

Confirm and save the settings by clicking the 

OK

 button.
