Sim Card And Card Holder; Configuring Arctic Iec-104 Gateway Settings - Viola Systems Arctic IEC-104 User Manual

SIM Card and Card Holder

Standard 3 V SIM cards may be used with the Arctic IEC-104 Gateway. A SIM card holder is located
on the back panel near the GPRS antenna connector. If you have the PIN code query enabled, first
check that the Arctic Configurator has a correct PIN code entered in the GPRS submenu. To operate
with SIM card follow the procedure below:
1. Power off the Arctic.
2. The SIM card holder contains a tray with a yellow eject button. Push this button in order to
eject the tray from the holder.
3. Put the SIM card onto the tray.
4. Insert the tray carefully back to the holder and press the tray until it is locked.
Note: The card should only be inserted or removed while the GSM module has been placed in
shutdown mode. The SIM card holder has a card detection circuit that will in theory allow hot
insertion and removal of the card. However, hot insertion and removal are not recommended,
since the SIM card content may be corrupted if the card is removed while the GSM module is
writing data to it.

Configuring Arctic IEC-104 Gateway Settings

1. If your SIM card has the PIN code querying set, make sure you configure the PIN code before
inserting the card in the card holder. If PIN querying is not set, you may proceed with the card
installation procedure.
2. Connect to the Arctic and log in to Configurator.
3. Navigate to Network page from main navigation bar and select the GPRS sub page.
4. Set the access point name appropriately (usually "INTERNET").
5. Set the GPRS network username and password appropriately if your GPRS service requires
authentication.
