Fitting The Antenna
Important:
2.2.2 Fitting The Antenna
Before using netpad units fitted with 802.11 radios, the antenna must be installed.
The antenna should be installed as shown in Figure 2.5 below. To install the antenna
turn it counter clockwise; to remove the antenna turn it clockwise.
2.2.3 Installing The SIM Card
A netpad fitted with a GSM/GPRS radio requires a Subscriber Identity Module
(SIM) card installed in order for the netpad to access the GSM network. The SIM
card fits into a dedicated slot in the netpad. The SIM card slot compartment is
located behind the Card Slot door on the side of the netpad; the SIM card slot is
located below the Multimedia card (MMC) slot (see Figure 2.7 on page 22).

Take care when replacing batteries!
The netpad will warn you when its main battery is getting low, in
plenty of time to change/charge it. The backup battery is designed
to maintain the memory for several hours; however, prolonged reli-
ance on the backup battery does reduce its life.
Figure 2.5 Antenna Insertion And Removal
The MMC slot and SIM slot are located very close together. When
inserting or removing the SIM card be careful not to drop the SIM
card into MMC slot.
