2.6.5 Do you need a PIN? (BGAN)
Important
To avoid having to enter a PIN at startup, you have two options:
• Enable Auto SIM PIN validation. See Auto SIM PIN validation on page 4-32.
With this option enabled, the EXPLORER 540 automatically sends the PIN to the SIM
card at every startup. Note that if you later want change the SIM card, you should
first disable Auto SIM PIN validation.
• Disable the use of a SIM PIN. See To enable or disable the use of a SIM PIN on page 4-
31. When the SIM PIN is disabled, the SIM can be used by other terminals without a
PIN.
If you are using a SIM PIN in your system, you can enter the SIM PIN from the built-in
web interface. For details, see To enter the SIM PIN on page 4-48.
Note
2.7 To access the web interface
You can use the built-in web interface for configuration and operation of the
EXPLORER 540. To access the web interface, do as follows:
1. Start up the terminal.
2. Connect your computer to the LAN interface of the terminal. If the terminal is
already installed in your system, you must connect via a router or switch, because
there is only one LAN interface on the EXPLORER 540.
3. Open your browser and enter the IP address of the terminal in the address bar. The
default IP address of the terminal is 192.168.0.1.
4. Log in as user or administrator. Default user names and passwords are:
• user: User name = user, password = <serial number of the EXPLORER 540>
• administrator: User name = administrator, password = admin
Important
If the terminal is not yet installed, it will automatically start the installation procedure
and the web interface will show the progress. Otherwise the web interface will show
the dashboard.
For more information on the web interface, see The web interface on page 4-2.

If your EXPLORER 540 is used in an unmanned M2M system, you will not
be able to enter a PIN code. In this case we strongly recommend enabling
Auto SIM PIN validation in the web interface before using the system.
See below.
If you are asked for a PIN in the web interface and you select Cancel, you
cannot communicate on the network, but you can access all settings.
Remember to change the administrator password! See To change the
administrator password on page 4-30.
