Chapter 3: Controller Connection Examples
6. When using a cellular connection, the IP address and DNS server will be automatically
assigned via DHCP, and HTTP Proxy will be disabled.
7. Local control over remote accessibility, if enabled, will allow you to enable/disable the
VPN connection via a wired digital input on the router. Wiring details are in Chapter 1.
8. Enter a unique IP address for the LAN side of the router (machine network). This must
match the default gateway entered in the CLICK PLC setup (192.168.140.1 in this
example).
9. Click [Download file] to download the generated file and save it to the root directory of
a USB flash drive. Note that the filename on the USB drive must be exactly router.conf
with no added characters, in case your browser added a suffix.
10. Install the VPN Client on your PC. (This step must be repeated for any new PC where
you will use your StrideLinx account.)
11. Mount and wire your SE-SL3011-4G router, and connect the LTE antenna.
12. Power on your StrideLinx router.
13. Insert the USB flash drive into the StrideLinx router's USB port.
14. Wait around 2 minutes for the StrideLinx router to configure and register itself. After the
router is successfully registered and connected to the StrideLinx Cloud, the Status LED
will be on steady blue and the Signal LED will be on steady blue/violet/red depending on
network signal strength.
NOTE: It's best practice to remove the config file from the USB after the router has been registered so that on power
up the router boots from the current configuration rather than the initial configuration.
15. From Fleet Manager, select Devices
devices list, saying "New device". It also mentions your router's serial number (e.g.
17055202), which you can verify with the serial number on the side of the router. This
yellow bar also shows up in the StrideLinx Portal app.
16. Click the yellow bar, name your device as you see fit and select [Activate].
17. Now, your router will appear in the Devices list in your StrideLinx account.
18. Select the router from the list of devices, then click the CONNECT icon.

example), then click OK.
4. Highlight your target CLICK in the devices list, then click the CONNECT button.
You should now be successfully connected to the CLICK PLC from a remote PC through the
VPN.
