SIM cards

The Hydro-Logic

Flexi Logger 100 uses mobile data for telemetry and needs a

correctly provisioned SIM to be installed and active.

Within the UK, Hydro-International supplies complete

Timeview

packages

including a roaming SIM, web-based Timeview data collection and alarm
forwarding options. Please contact

Sales enquiries

for further details on

Timeview packages.

If you have ordered this package, the SIM will be pre-installed.

Using your own SIM

Many clients successfully use their own SIMs with the Hydro-Logic

Flexi Logger

100. Both Private APN and fixed-IP SIMs can be used. You can still use
Timeview with your own SIM,

but you must purchase an “Own SIM” Timeview

package.

The following points are important if you are using your own SIM:

•

The SIM must be data enabled.

•

Roaming SIMs are recommended

•

A contract SIM is recommended because pre-pay SIMs are difficult to

manage in remote devices.

•

All SIM passwords must be disabled

– you may need to put the SIM in a

mobile phone to do this.

•

Confirm the APN, Username and Password from the SIM provider and

configure the logger with these via the GPRS tab in Harvest.
