TAM-242 Main Module
The TAM-242 incorporates a SAT-200 satellite modem mounted within the IP66 rated enclosure,
containing the battery compartment and interface PCB.
The TAM-242 may either be permanently fitted to the asset or temporarily deployed utilising the four
(4) magnets incorporated within the enclosure base.
Interface Connector, Key Switch, and LED
The TAM-242 has one external interface connector which is used to charge the unit and a key switch
that allows you to switch the terminal “On” and “Off”. This helps preserve the life of the battery when
the terminal is not in use. Further instructions on the use of the key switch are contained in Key
Switch Operation on page 8.
