STEP 1 Install the SIM Cards
1. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the SIM card cover.

By default, the SIM card in slot 1 (the upper slot) is the Primary SIM card. When the
RV50 is powered on or reboots, it automatically connects to the network associated
with the Primary SIM card. Later, if you want to switch the device to another network
operator, you can use ACEmanager to confi gure slot 2 to be the Primary SIM card slot.
For more information, refer to the ALEOS Software Confi guration User Guide.
