Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an Industrial HSPA Cellular Network Router from NetComm. This manual illustrates how to set-up and configure your router appropriately for your chosen task. The
router is primarily managed and configured via a web browser. This manual will take you through the steps required to configure and use your unit correctly.
Additionally, the router may be configured via the serial (V.24) port using “AT” (V.250) commands. This method of operation is further detailed in the document: NTC-6000Series_V250 (AT)
Manual_V1-1-0.
Overview
An NTC-6000 series router allows you to build wide area networks utilizing the superior speeds supported by 3G UMTS networks. Employing an embedded 3G UMTS modem module the router
offers downlink speeds of up to 7.2Mbps and uplink speeds of up to 5.76Mbps
The NTC-6000 series provides the user a point-to-point or point-to-multi-point communications link in a single, compact and resilient unit.
As a fully featured cellular router, it supports a large number of communication interfaces and protocols to meet the demands of today’s telemetry and WAN applications.
Designed with remote installation in mind the NTC-6000 series supports multi-level system monitoring giving the user peace of mind the device will keep the lines of communication up and open.
In the event of system corruption, a built-in recovery mode provides the facility to re-install the system software to the router and resume normal operations quickly. Using the recovery console is
further detailed in the document NTC-6XXX Firmware Upgrade VX.X.X.pdf that is part of all NTC-6000 series firmware upgrade packs released, which are available for download in the support

If after three incorrect attempts at entering the PIN code, you will be requested to enter a PUK code.
Figure24:EnterCorrectPINandPUKMessage
The PUK code is sometimes referred to as a PIN Unlocked Key (PUK) code. You will need to contact your mobile broadband provider to obtain this number.
Your mobile broadband provider will issue you a PUK code which will enable you to unlock the SIM card and enter a new PIN code.
Enter the new PIN and PUK codes as shown below and click Save.
If you have entered the PUK correctly you should see the following message:

The ‘Remember PIN’ Feature
This feature allows the router to automatically send the PIN to the SIM each time the SIM asks for it (usually at power up).
This enables the SIM to be PIN Locked (to prevent unauthorized use of the SIM card elsewhere), while still allowing the router to connect to the cellular service.
When this feature is enabled the PIN entered by the user when they set the “Remember PIN” feature is encrypted and stored locally in the router. The next time the SIM asks the router for the PIN
the router decrypts the PIN and automatically sends it to the SIM without user intervention.
When this feature is disabled and the SIM is PIN locked, the user must manually enter the PIN via the router‘s configuration interface. This is clearly not desirable where the router is unattended.

Establishing a Connection to a Cellular Network
This section describes how to configure the router to initiate a Mobile Broadband connection. There are 2 possible methods that can be used to set up a Mobile Broadband connection via PPP:
Initiating the PPP Connection directly from the router (most common).
Initiating the PPP Connection from a different PPP client (i.e. laptop or router) with the router running in transparent PPPoE mode.
Initiating a PPP Connection Directly from the Router
The status page of the router should be displayed as below. Please ensure that the SIM Status is ‘SIM OK’ before you initiate a Mobile Broadband connection.

Click on click on the “Internet Settings” menu and select “Mobile Broadband” followed by the “Connection” option on the right as shown in Figure 33 below.

Ethernet Related Commands
How to configure the Ethernet IP address
The IP settings can be configured by clicking on the “Internet Settings” menu followed by “LAN” and then “IP Setup”
The default IP of the Ethernet port is 192.168.20.1 with the subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
If you wish to change this then simply enter the new IP address and click on the Save button at the bottom of the page.
Since the IP address has changed you will have to re-enter the new IP address configured in your browser to access the configuration pages.
Figure37:LAN‐IPSettings
How to Configure DNS Masquerading
DNS masquerading allows the router to forward DNS requests to dynamically assigned DNS servers. Clients on the router’s LAN can then use the router as a DNS server without needing to
know of the dynamically assigned DNS servers assigned by the cellular network.
There should be no need to disable this feature in most cases, however, if you need to do so simply select “Disable” and click the Save button.
Figure38:DNSMasqueradingSetting
How
to
Configur
e
the DHCP
Server
Use the following procedure to change the router’s DHCP server default settings. Ensure your PC’s Ethernet connector is configured to automatically obtain an IP and DNS server address.
When you plug in the Ethernet cable to your PC, the router should automatically assign it an IP address within 10-15 seconds. Please be aware that you will be sharing the bandwidth of the
router between all connected devices. You can manually set DNS1 and DNS2 or if DNS Masquerade is enabled the DHCP DNS1 address will automatically be set to the router’s LAN address.
Figure39:DHCP
This example has a start address of 100, an end address of 199, lease time of 86,400 seconds, and uses the DNS servers that are auto-assigned by the network upon connection.
![](/img.php?id=1827390&img=bg1c.png)
NTC-6000 Series – Industrial M2M Wireless Routers YML6908
28
www.netcommwireless.com
NETCOMM CALLDIRECT™ SERIES – NTC-6000 Series
If you do not enter the DNS1 and DNS2 addresses manually, then to browse the Internet from your Ethernet connected device you must enable DNS Masquerade (see above).
Upon enabling DNS Masquerade, you will notice that the DNS1 address is automatically set to the IP address of the Ethernet port. DNS addresses are then automatically assigned by the
connection to the network.
How to Configure Static DHCP Assignments
This facility is available by clicking on the “Internet Settings” menu followed by “LAN” and then the “DHCP” menu item on the right.
You may assign a particular IP address to a specific device every time that device makes a DHCP request as follows:
Figure40:StaticIPAssignment
Click the Add button.
Enter a name for the computer or device.
Enter the computer or device’s MAC address.
Enter the IP address to assign.
Click Save.
How to configure your device’s IP address manually (no DHCP)
If your device has a static IP address set, you can configure your device to work with the router by manually configuring your device to the following settings:
Set your device’s IP address to any valid IP address between 192.168.20.2 and 192.168.20.99 or disable the DHCP server and use any address. Do not use the IP address
assigned to the router’s Ethernet interface.
Set your device’s subnet to: 255.255.255.0.
Set your Gateway to the IP address of the router’s Ethernet interface: 192.168.20.1

NETCOMM CALLDIRECT™ SERIES – NTC-6000 Series
White List
A maximum number of 20 entries can be stored in the router.
If Authentication is enabled, any incoming Diagnostics/Command Execution SMS messages are processed only if the sender’s number exists in White List and the message password matches
with the password specified in the White List.
One blank entry is shown by default and you can add or delete an entry by pressing the “+” or “–“ button. The White List numbers and passwords can be cleared by pressing the “Delete” button.
To add an entry, simply enter the appropriate phone number and password and click “Save”.
Message Storage for Diagnostic Messages
Diagnostic messages (Diagnostic commands, acknowledgements and error notification messages) sent to remote destination are stored in Inbox/Outbox.
Security
In order to provide security for SMS command execution, it is recommended that all SMS commands be subject to successful authentication against the White List as well as setting a password
for each phone number entered.
This prevents unauthorized or accidental execution of SMS commands.

SMS Command format
Generic Format for reading variables:
get VARIABLENAME
PASSWORD get VARIABLENAME
Generic Format for writing to variables:
set VARIABLENAME=VALUE
PASSWORD set VARIABLENAME=VALUE
Generic Format for executing a command:
execute COMMAND
PASSWORD execute COMMAND
Replies
Upon receipt of successfully formatted, authenticated (if required) command, the router will reply to the SMS in the following format:
TYPE SMS CONTENTS NOTES
Get Command “VARIABLENAME=VALUE”
Set Command “Successfully set VARIABLENAME to VALUE”. Only sent if the acknowledgment message function is enabled
Execute Command“Successfully executed command”
Table11:SMSCommandReplies
Where “VARIABLENAME” is the name of the value to be read
Where “VARIABLENAME(x)” is the name of another value to be read
Where “VALUE” is the content to be written to the “VARIABLENAME”
Where “COMMAND” is a supported command to be executed by the device (e.g. reboot)
Where “PASSWORD” is the password (if configured) for the corresponding sender number specified in the White List.
Multiple commands can be sent in the same message, if separated by a semicolon.
For Example:
i. get VARIABLENAME1; get VARIABLENAME2; get VARIABLENAME3
ii. PASSWORD get VARIABLENAME1; get VARIABLENAME2
iii. set VARIABLENAME=VALUE1 ; set VARIABLENAME2=VALUE2
iv. PASSWORD set VARIABLENAME1=VALUE1; set VARIABLENAME2=VALUE2; set VARIABLENAME3=VALUE3
If required, values can also be bound by an apostrophe, double apostrophe or back tick.
For Example:
v. “set VARIABLE=’VALUE’”
vi. “set VARIABLE=”VALUE””
vii. “set VARIABLE=`VALUE`”
viii. “get VARIABLE”
A password (if required), only needs to be specified once per SMS, but can be prefixed to each command if desired.
ix. “PASSWORD get Variable1”; “get VARABLE2”
x. “PASSWORD set VARIABLE1=VALUE1”; “set VARIABLE2=VALUE2”

NETCOMM CALLDIRECT™ SERIES – NTC-6000 Series
If the command sent includes the “reboot” command and has already passed the White List password check, the device keeps this password and executes the remaining
command line after the reboot with this same password.
For Example:
xi. “PASSWORD execute reboot; get Variable1”; “get VARABLE2”
xii. “PASSWORD execute reboot; PASSWORD get Variable1”; “get VARABLE2”
Commands are case insensitive; however variable names and values are case sensitive.
List of Valid Commands (which can be used in conjunction with the execute command)
“pdpcycle”, “pdpdown” and “pdpup” commands can have a profile number suffix ‘x’ added. Without the suffix specified, the command operates against the current active profile or last active
profile.
# COMMAND NAME DESCRIPTION
1 reboot Immediately perform a soft reboot
2 pdpcycle or pdpcyclex
Disconnect (if connected) and reconnect the 3G connection. If a profile number is selected in the command, try
to disconnect/reconnect the specified profile in case the profile is active. If no profile number is selected, try to
disconnect/reconnect the current active profile. This command can report an error if no profile number is
selected and there is no currently activated profile.
3 pdpdown or pdpdownx
Disconnect the PDP. If a profile number is selected in the command, try to disconnect the specified profile in case
the profile is active. If no profile number is selected, try to disconnect the current active profile. Reports an error if
no profile number is selected and there is no currently activated profile.
4 pdpup or pdpupx
Reconnect the PDP. If a profile number is selected in the command, try to connect with the specified profile. If no
profile number is selected, try to connect to the last active profile. The router will check the currently activated
profile and disconnect this profile before executing the command. Reports an error if no profile number is selected
and there is no stored last active profile number.

List of Valid Variables:
Where “x” is a profile number (1-6). If no profile is specified, variables are read for or written to for the current active profile. If a profile is specified, the variable is read for or written to for the
specified profile number (‘x’).
