Quick Guide
1 Red he signl srengh on he module’s Ligh Emiing Diodes (LEDs) (Min. wo mus be
swiched on).
2 If he signl srengh is below 2, n exernl nenn mus be inslled*.
3 The exernl nenn mus be plced in  locion h opimises he recepion of he signl.
Chnge he posiion of he nenn unil he bes posiion hs been found.
4 Before leving he insllion, es he signl srengh by SMS (=signl#). Mke sure h he

When the SIM card holder is opened, the supply to the SIM card is cut off. When the SIM card
has been inserted correctly and the holder is closed, the module will restart automatically.
If he uni is supplied wihou  SIM crd, mke
sure h i is insered before using he uni.
The SIM crd holder is opened by pushing he
