Using the MTX-4G-JAVA-IoT AUS Basic MTX Configuration Tool
First it should be understood that the MTX Tunnel software in the MTX IoT Modem uses a config.txt
file from which it takes its settings at start-up. This tool allows for changes to be made to the config.txt
by issuing individual commands to the unit via the serial port, this functionality relies on the unit
having a suitable default setting. Contact Australis M2M if you believe the unit does not have the
appropriate firmware and default settings. New settings only take affect after a re-start.
This tool also relies on the unit starting up correctly, it will not do so without a suitable SIM, so you will
need to fit a suitable SIM prior to setting up the unit.
