QUICK REFERENCE CARD
Sierra Wireless GX450 Modem
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for a quick setup
of the Sierra Wireless GX450 modem with or without a WiFi
X-Card present.
Note: Failure to follow these instructions carefully may
damage the X-Card and void the warranty agreement.
STEP 1: INSTALL THE SIM CARD
1. Ensure the device is powered off.
2. Unscrew the 8 mm hexagonal nut on the WiFi SMA antenna
connector at the front of the gateway, using the socket and
wrench. Then slide off the nut and lock washer. Save the nut
and washer. These are used again.
3. Remove the four screws used to secure the black decorative
cover. Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver. Save the screws for
reinstallation.
4. Gently tilt up the back of the decorative black cover and then
move the cover forward so that it slides over the WiFi SMA
antenna connector.
TRANSFORMING THE WAY THE WORLD
Warning!
Do not reset the modem to factory defaults.
Do not press and hold the reset button on the front
of the modem.
Do not utilize the web interface to update modem
firmware or perform a factory default reset.
This will remove the custom Trimble firmware and
void the factory warranty.
5. Continue to slide the cover horizontally until it clears the
SMA antenna connector.
6. Lift the cover to remove it completely. Save the cover. It is
used later.
7. Insert the SIM card, with the gold contacts facing down and
the notch on the right side, as shown in the illustration.
