Requirements for a SIM data card
The following points must absolutely be taken into
account before purchasing a SIM data card:
In order to use the GSM modem, you will need a SIM
n
card with a contract with a mobile service provider.
You should select a provider whose grid supplies the
n
strongest GSM signal at your chosen location.
The tariff must allow for packet data communication
n
via GPRS.
Prepaid cards which are charged via mobile calls are
n
not suitable.
Tariffs which specify particular times for data down-
n
loads cannot be used.
The tariff must permit a data volume of at least 5 MB
n
per month and per inverter.
The SIM card must be activated prior to installation
n
(e.g. via a mobile phone).
The necessary access data are APN (Access Point
n
Name), user name and password.
