5Installing  your deviceStep 1The Vodafone MachineLink 4G router comes equipped with an internal soldered-down GDSP SIM which is ready for use. If you have an additional SIM card that you would like to use, you can insert it in the SIM card tray. To eject the SIM card tray, use the end of a paper clip to press the SIM Eject button. Place the SIM card in the tray and then insert the loaded tray into the SIM slot with the gold side facing up, as shown below.If you have a microSD card to use with the device, insert it into the SD card slot. The microSD card slot is spring loaded and retains the microSD card until it is pushed again to eject it.QSG-00075 rev 7 - MachineLink 4G QSG.indd   5 21/06/2016   10:20 AM
6Step 2The MachineLink 4G router is shipped with rubber caps on the Cellular, WiFi and GPS antenna sockets. To attach the supplied antennas, rst remove the socket caps from the antenna sockets then screw the antennas onto the sockets by turning them in a clockwise direction. Please refer to the Device overview section for the antenna socket layout. If you have purchased a GPS antenna, remove the socket cap from the GPS antenna socket and attach the antenna to the socket in the same manner. QSG-00075 rev 7 - MachineLink 4G QSG.indd   6 21/06/2016   10:20 AM
7Step 3Mount your router in a suitable location using the options listed in the Mounting options section.When selecting a location to mount the MachineLink 4G router, keep in mind that it features high performance antennas designed to provide optimum signal strength in a wide range of environments. You can check the signal strength by observing the colour and number of LEDs illuminated on the front of the device. For a precise reading of the signal strength, refer to the Status page on the web user interface. If you nd the signal strength is weak, try moving the router to a different place, mounting it differently or changing the orientation of the antennas.The signal strength LEDs update within a few seconds with a rolling average signal strength reading. When selecting a location for the router, please allow up to 20 seconds for the signal strength LEDs to update before repositioning. QSG-00075 rev 7 - MachineLink 4G QSG.indd   7 21/06/2016   10:20 AM
8Step 4Connect power to your router using one of the following options.1.  DC power via the four-way connectorRemove the attached green terminal block from your router and connect to the router’s power socket using a DC power supply,  sold separately.2.  DC power via eld terminated power sourceIf an 8-40V DC power supply is available, you can insert the wires into the supplied terminal block to power your router. Use a athead screwdriver to tighten the terminal block screws and secure the power wires, making sure that you have correctly wired the terminal block as illustrated below. You should avoid using DC cables greater than  2 metres in length.QSG-00075 rev 7 - MachineLink 4G QSG.indd   8 21/06/2016   10:20 AM
9The green power LED on the router lights up when a power source is connected.Step 5Connect equipment that requires network access to the LAN port of your router. You can connect one device directly, or several devices using a network switch. Switch on your power supply and wait 2 minutes for your Vodafone MachineLink 4G to start up and connect to the mobile network. Your router comes with precongured settings that should suit most customers.Your router is now connected.To check the status of your router, compare the LED indicators  on the device with those listed opposite.TERMINAL DESCRIPTION+Positive wire for power-Ground WireiDedicated terminal for ignition detection1One terminal used for input/output detection (Please refer to the User Guide and SDK Guide for more information).QSG-00075 rev 7 - MachineLink 4G QSG.indd   9 21/06/2016   10:20 AM

Your device contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is on, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your device, the system handling your connection controls the power level at which your device transmits.This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the device must be used with a minimum of 20cm separation from the body. Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.Déclaration d’exposition aux radiations:Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements IC établies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 20 cm de distance entre la source de rayonnement et votre corps.Tout gain d’antenne externe doit répondre l’exposition aux radiofréquences et les limites de puissance de sortie maximum rayonnée de la section de la règle applicable. Le gain maximal de l’antenne de cet appareil est:•  WWAN: 3.74 dBi (2500-2690MHz)•  WLAN: 2dBi•  Type d’antenne WLAN: Antenne dipolaireConformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée quivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépassepas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.

33Explosive environmentsbetween a device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.Hearing aidsPeople with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference source, increasing the separation between them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.Medical devicesPlease consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your device may interfere with the operation of your medical device.HospitalsSwitch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.Interference in carsPlease note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of devices in their vehicles unless an external antenna is included in the installation. Petrol stations and explosive atmospheresIn locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your device or other radio equipment. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.Blasting caps and areasTurn off your device or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted turn off  “two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.QSG-00075 rev 7 - MachineLink 4G QSG.indd   33 21/06/2016   10:20 AM
