Mounting
The TDC device should be mounted as close as possible to the battery for connection to
the voltage supply or close to the electrical installation for the connection of peripherals.
A SIM card for operation in EU countries and a 3-A fuse are already included in the TDC
devices.
WARNING
Be sure to closely observe the following notes during mounting:
Mount the TDC device so that it is protected from dirt and mechanical damage.
Use a cover plate where possible.
We recommend installing the device in a connection box with PG connectors to ensure
compliance with protection class IP65.
4.1
Inserting the SIM card (not EU countries or for MQTT operation)
If the TDC device is being operated in an EU country in conjunction with the SICK cloud,
the SIM card inserted at the factory can be used for data transmission.
If the device is being operated in a country outside of the EU, the customer will have to
insert a SIM card from their telecommunications provider.
Only use M2M SIM cards.
WARNING
Ensure the device is switched off before inserting a SIM card.
