Chapter 3 – Configuration of your MultiConnect
Cellular Port Configuration
The Cellular Port configuration is dependent on the cellular network, a GPRS Cellular network is the default cellular
network for MT100A2W-G units and contains the most options to configure. When the Cellular Port is set to GSM on
the MT100A2W-G units, the number of configuration options are reduced. When a MT100A2W unit determines that
there is no internal wireless modem, the Device Configuration menu changes to a CDMA network.
The GPRS Cellular network configuration is detailed in the following section. The GSM Cellular Network
configuration is detailed in the next section, and finally the CDMA Cellular network configuration is detailed in the last
section of the Cellular Port Configuration.
