7.2 Install the SIM card

Note

Before installing the SIM card, please make sure that the SIM card is working and that it has sufficient data available. The SIM card must not have a PIN code.

Figure 7.2. Removal of the Lower Main lid.

1) Remove the three screws and remove the black plastic lid from the Lower Main (see figure 7.2). Use a torx T10.

Figure 7.3. Installation of SIM card.

2) Pull out the top of the SIM card holder to open it. 3) Put the SIM card into the holder (see figure 7.3). 4) Close the SIM card holder and slide it back into position. 5) Put the black plastic lid back and tighten the screws.

7.3 Connect the signal cables

The sensors and antennas are connected to the Lower Main. When the Main Compartment is docked, the Lower Main is accessed through the Connection Compartment.

Prewired I/O screw terminals are bundled and found in the Connection Compartment. I/O screw terminals that are not prewired are supplied separately.

The I/O screw terminals are categorized as TNV-2 circuit according to IEC 60950-1.

Figure 7.3. Connection of I/O screw terminals.

1) If applicable, connect genset start signal cables to the I/O screw terminal and pins according to the table in section 7.4 I/O screw terminals. Use a 2.5 mm screwdriver. 2) If applicable, connect external signal cables to the I/O screw terminal and pins according to the table in section 7.4 I/O screw terminals. Use a 2.5 mm screwdriver. 3) Install the 8 I/O screw terminals onto the Lower Main. Connect them according to the labels, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7 and C8 (see figure 7.3). 4) Pull the outside air temperature sensor cable through the cable sealing and let it hang below the Connection Compartment. The outside air temperature sensor is connected to the I/O screw terminals from factory. 5) Connect the GSM antenna to the MODEM socket on the Lower Main (see figure 7.4). The GSM cable is prewired to the antenna in the Connection Compartment.
