SIM settings
:
Device phone number

phone call if a problem occurs with the mobile Internet connection when you wish to control a
gate.
PIN code
: if you want to lock the SIM card with a PIN code, enter in this section the PIN code of
the SIM card installed in the device and enable PIN code request on the SIM card using a
cellphone. Otherwise disable PIN code request on the SIM card. If the wrong PIN code has been
entered, the device will try the code only once each time the code is changed in the settings, and
“PIN code error” message will be shown in the system logs. If the wrong code is configured 3
times consecutively, the SIM card will reach the PUK code request stage. In this case install the
SIM card into a cellphone, unlock the card by entering the PUK code when requested, and
configure the valid PIN code in the device settings.

service in the
