    Footprint Format and template of the fixing holes of the box Opening of the ACW case The box must be opened to access the module configuration switches as well as the connection terminal block. To do this, insert the screwdriver in the slot and tilt down to lift the inner tab (see photo opposite).
  • Page 11: Fixing Support

    Fixing support In order to meet the requirements of the safety standard, it is important to connect either the wall or the product to the ground. A hole on the attachment has been provided for this use. Fixing on a flat wall (provided): Special condition for safe use The end user will take all necessary precautions to install the equipment in its final environment while maintaining the...
  • Page 12: Implementation And Positioning

    Implementation and positioning Install the modem at a minimum height of 2m and not glued to the wall, ideally offset by at least 20cm the cables must not exceed 10m in length and must be shielded For optimal results, it is advisable to place it in height and clear of any metallic obstacle in a radius of 1 meter if possible (see figures below).
  • Page 13: Product Restart

    Product restart A power failure is achievable by positioning a magnet near a magnetic switch placed on the power supply of the modem. This operation can be useful to perform a restart (requires positioning the magnet for about 30 seconds). ATIM_ACW-MR2-EX_UG_EN_V1.1...

After a few seconds, the green LED flashes, which means that the modem is sending its data to the network.
  • Page 19: Configuration

    Configuration The configuration can be realized locally thanks to internal switches, or remotely through downlink frames. By default, the product uses the switch configuration until a downlink frames configuration is not done. If a downlink configuration is applied, throughout the next restart, this setting will be used. a) Internal DIP switches configuration The configuration is read at the starting of the device.
