Getting started

Installing the SIM Card

 

To eject the SIM card drawer, press the 
SIM card eject button using a suitable 
tool and remove the drawer, refer to 
figure for the location of the SIM card 
eject button.

 

Insert the SIM card into the SIM card 
drawer with the contacts facing up, let 
chambered corners align.

 

Slid the drawer back into the unit 
ensuring that it locks into place.

Note:

 Before removing or inserting the SIM 

card, ensure that the power has been 
turned off and the power connector 
has been removed from the MRD.

Connecting the Antenna(s)

The unit has three antenna connectors (SMA). Please ensure that the connecting nut is 
done up tightly in order to make a good connection.

Connect the Power Supply

The MRD requires a DC power source in the voltage range of 10 to 60 VDC. The unit 
is designed to self protect from permanent damage if the voltage exceeds 60 VDC or if 
reverse polarity is applied. The router may need to be returned for service if this occurs. 
The router can also be damaged if there is any potential difference between the chassis-
ground, RS-232 signal ground, power (–) input, or antenna shield. Before connecting 
any wiring, ensure all components are earthed to a common ground point. An external 
isolator will be required if a positive earth power supply is used.

Ethernet

The Ethernet ports are on the front of the unit and are marked LAN 1 and LAN 2, each 
port has a LED indicating the connection speed and a LED indicating activity as shown 
in figure below. Both ports are capable of auto-negotiation, meaning cross-over cables 

are not required. The Ethernet ports are switched, allowing more than one 
Ethernet device to be connected to the unit at one time.
