2.6 SIM card holder
The device requires a Mini (2FF) size SIM card.
The SIM card holder can be accessed by removing the cover of the aperture found on the device
enclosure.
Note:
the
WiFi
device model does not require a SIM card, therefore it has no SIM card holder.
The cover can be removed by pressing it with your fingernail towards the LED at the end where
the gap is and then pulling it outwards. Insert the SIM card in the holder. The services to be
activated on the SIM card installed into the device should be chosen according to which services
of the device you wish to use. Basically, for communication with receivers and servers it requires
a SIM card with mobile Internet access that may use either public or private APN.
The functions that use SMS sending need SMS service and the ones that use calls require GSM
voice call service.
Installing the SIM card:
1.
Pull the metal security lock of the SIM holder towards the LED
until you hear a click.
2.
Reach under the metallic security lock with your fingernail and
pull to open the holder.
3.
Slide the SIM card into the opened part with the contacts facing
down, as shown in the figure.
Fold back the opened part together with the SIM card.
Secure the SIM card by pressing down carefully the metallic
security lock and pulling it towards the side of the enclosure until you
hear a click.
2.7 Connecting the antenna
Connect the GSM antenna to the FME-M socket. The device comes with an antenna that provides
good transmission under normal reception circumstances. In case of experiencing signal strength
problems
or/and
wave
interference
(fading),
use
a
directed
antenna,
or
find
a more advantageous mounting place for the antenna. In case of installing the unit into a metal
box, the antenna should be mounted outside the box, in a place where the measured GSM signal
is the highest available.
