1. Insert the SIM card into the socket on the underside of the cellular modem. SIM cards come in a credit card sized
carrier. Snap it out and insert the SIM card into the holder on the cellular modem.
Make note of the IMEI number of the cellular modem and the ICCID number of the SIM card. The numbers can be
found on the cellular modem and the SIM card or SIM card carrier. You will need the SIM number to associate a
wireless plan to this SIM card.
2. Apply the internal antenna as shown paying attention to the antenna cable position.
a) Pull back the adhesive protective paper from the middle of the antenna, only exposing the middle portion.
Antenna application is easier if just a small middle portion of the adhesive is uncovered.
b) Center the antenna on the side wall. Use the exposed adhesive in the middle of the antenna to hold the antenna
in place while aligning the antenna to the full length of the housing.
c) Slowly peel off the paper backing exposing the adhesive and stick to the plastic housing. The antenna should run
below the rim of the housing.
d) Press firmly.
3. Orient the cellular modem according to the diagram below and verify the pins are properly aligned. Firmly press the
modem into the 24-pin socket on the board.
The cellular modem is inserted into the main board with the antenna cable from the applied internal antenna attached
to the cellular modem PCB.
4. Attach the antenna cable between the cellular modem board to the base board. The antenna cable uses the top
antenna connection.
