Chapter 2 - Installation11Chapter 2: InstallationMechanical Mounting To mount the Wireless MultiModem, do the following:1.  Obtain mounting screws (two are needed) that are appropriate for the surface on which you will mount theMultiModem.  The mounting screw on the connector end of the unit must have a screw-head no thickerthan 2 mm.  The allowable thickness is limited because the screw must fit beneath the RS232 cable.  Theallowable thickness of the other screw-head is not limited in this way.  = 2 mmScrew HeadClearanceSide ViewFor example, one might use two 6-32 self-tapping screws 5/8” in length to mount the unit in a truck to thewall of the cab behind the passenger’s seat.2.  Typically, the unit is mounted against a flat surface into which holes can be drilled.  The mounting holes(center-to-center) must be separated by 125mm or 4 -15/16 inches.Screw Separation= 125 mmor 41516inchesDrill the mounting holes at the desired mounting location (if applicable).
Chapter 2 - Installation123.  Slide the mounting bridles into the corresponding slots on the back side of the MultiModem chassis.4.  Attach the MultiModem with two screws to the mounting surface at the desired location on theequipment.
Chapter 2 - Installation13Electrical Installation & Configuration The wireless MultiModem requires the power supply connection to begin operation. To install themodem, do the following:1.  Connect a suitable antenna to the SMA connector (see “Antenna/RF Specifications” on page 4).Antenna Connector(SMA type)2.

Chapter 2 - Installation154a. For standard transformer power supply.  Connect the AC cord receptacle into the transformer block.Connect the AC cord plug into the mains power outlet.4b. For optional direct-DC powering. Connect the direct-DC power supply cable into the DC power sourceon the vehicle or machine in which you are mounting the MultiModem.  Be sure the GND connection iscorrect.  Connect red wire to + (positive) and black wire to – (negative).Note:  For automotive application: according to the type of application, you can use permanent “+” or key-switched “+”.Connect the power supply to its source (for example, in a mobile situation, to the vehicle’s DCfuse/terminal block).5.  Activate the power supply.
Chapter 2 - Installation16Mobile PhoneToolsFor initial configuration of your wireless device, Multi-Tech offers a Windowsâ based mobile PhoneToolsapplication. To load mobile PhoneTools, click on the mobile PhoneTools icon on your system CD and follow the on-screenprompts.  Direct Modem InstallationTo install the Wireless MultiModem directly into the computer's Windows OS so it is independent of the mobilePhonetools program, use the "Add Modem" command or equivalent for your OS.  During this installation, youwill need to browse to the MultiModem's INF file (using the “Have Disk” option in the installation process).  ThisINF file is in the root directory of the Product CD. Verifying Signal StrengthThe Wireless MultiModem establishes a call if the signal is sufficiently strong. To verify the signalstrength, do the following:1. Using the Hyperterminal program at the computer to which the Wireless MultiModem is connected, typethe AT command AT+CSQ.  A value for the received signal strength will be returned.2.  Verify the result with the following chart:Signal Strength VerificationValue of signal strength(AT+CSQ response) (RSSI)Signal strength11 - 31 sufficient*0 - 10 insufficient*greater than 99 insufficient**Based on general observations.Verifying Network RegistrationIn this procedure, you will verify that the Wireless MultiModem has been registered on the wireless network.To do so, you will use the common communications program Hyperterminal.  1. Using the Hyperterminal program at the computer to which the Wireless MultiModem is connected, typethe AT command AT+CREG?.  A value for the modem’s network registration status will be returned.2.  Verify the result with the following chart:Network Registration VerificationValue Network Registration Status0, 1 Yes0, 5 Yes(registered roaming)Note:  If the modem is not registered, perform the procedure for Verifying Signal Strength to determinethe strength of the received signal.
