    3.4 SIM card & Battery installation Slide the SIM holder top to the left to open the holder and insert the SIM card into the hinged top. WARNING: Pay attention to the correct polarity during battery installation! The right polarity is marked up on the Battery Holder. The unit is protected against reverse polarity.
  • Page 8: Device Configuration

    4. Device Configuration BSC-50D utilizes two processors: An ultra Low Power MCU (LP-MCU), operating steadily and a Communication processor (COMM_MCU), operating on demand for conserving power. Configuration commands concerning the Low Power MCU must be followed by a special command in order to update the Low Power MCU configuration (see 4.15).
