Base Station v3.0: SIM-card replacement

It is not recommended to replace the factory mounted SIM-Card, unless it has been fully verified, that the SIM-card cannot obtain sufficient connectivity in the area.

Prior to commencing the replacement, it is important to consult your distributor, as settings in the Base Station must be changed.

To replace the SIM-card, the cover of the Base Station has to be removed. Before doing this, make sure that the power is not connected.

In order to install the SIM-card, follow the instructions below:

  1. Arrange for Distributor to update the APN settings prior to commencing SIM-Card replacement.
  2. Make sure the power plug has been disconnected.
  3. Remove the cover of the Base Station.
  4. Locate the SIM-card slot and remove the existing SIM-Card by pressing in gently with a small screwdriver until you hear a small “click”. Now remove the screwdriver and the SIM-card will be released.
  5. Insert the replacement SIM-card in the slot as illustrated in the picture below, then press it gently in with a screwdriver until you hear a small “click”.
  6. Reconnect power according to owner's manual.

 

The SIM-card is inserted into the slot as illustrated above. It is important to press the SIM-card fully into the slot until a mechanical click is heard. After re-powering the Base Station it can take up to several hours for the modem to reconnect to the server, after replacement of the SIM-Card. In this period the RTK-signal will be unavailable.
