First UseBefore applying power to the router, connect all the components that you need for your applications.Do not run the router without an antenna connected to the main antenna connector as the energy from the transmission is effectively reflected by the open end and can damage the equipment.

Antenna

Use an SMA connector to connect the antennas to the router, see the figure below. Connect the main antenna to the ANT connector. The second diversity antenna can be connected to the DIV connector to improve the quality and reliability of a wireless link.

SIM Card

The SIM card reader for one or two, depending on the product type, Micro SIM cards (3FF with size of 15.0 x 12.0 x 0.76 mm) is located on the right panel of the router under a metal cover. If you intend to use this device to communicate over a cellular network, please place an activated data-provisioned SIM card into the SIM card reader. Push your SIM card into the SIM slot until it clicks into place.Disconnect the router from the power supply before handling the SIM card.

Power

The router requires an external DC power supply. The DC voltage required is between +9 and +48 V DC. The router has built-in protection against reverse polarity without signaling. Connect the power supply cable to the PWR connector on the left panel of the router (see the figure below) and tighten the locking screws.

Ethernet

For an initial configuration, made in a web browser, connect a PC by an Ethernet cable to the default LAN interface, use the ETH0 port, see the figure above. By default, this interface has the following configuration:

  1. Configuring the Device Using the Web BrowserYou can use a web browser running on your PC to get access to the router web interface. Here you can perform router monitoring, configuration, and administration. First, connect the PC to the default LAN interface as described in the Ethernet chapter. To get the router interface, enter the https://192.168.1.1 address in a web browser. Please note that usageof the HTTPS protocol for secure communication over the network is required.By default, there is just the root user account created on the router. See the product label on the router for its default password. Log in to the web interface by the root user and his password. See the configuration manual of the router for a detailed description and examples of the router configuration.After logging on to the device for the first time, we strongly recommend changing the default password due to security reasons.For security reasons, it is highly recommended to update the firmware of the router to the latest version regularly. Downgrading the firmware to an older version than the production version or uploading a firmware intended for a different device may cause the malfunction of the device.
  2. Configuration Settings via WebAccess/DMPYour router has been pre-installed with the WebAccess/DMP client. For its activation vb,  enable it in the router’s web interface (Customization -> User Modules -> WebAccess/DMP Client).
