1. Rack mounting

 

  • With the included rack-mount-brackets, the gateway can be easily mounted in the rack.

 

 

 

 

2. Insert the SIM card

 

 

ê IMPORTANT: Before inserting the SIM card, please remove the PIN from the SIM card and disconnect the gateway from the power. Here you should wait 2 minutes until the capacitors have discharged and you insert the SIM card. This also applies if you change the SIM card! Check whether the SIM is correctly engaged. A clicking noise must be audible.

 

 

  • Insert the SIM card (Standard SIM).

 

 

 

3. Screw on the antenna

 

  • Screw the antenna to the SMA connector.

 

 

4. Connect network and console cable RS232

 

  • Connect an RJ-45 network cable. Please use the Ethernet port ETH0.
    The ports ETH1 and ETH2 are without function!

  • Connect the console cable to the serial port to be able to connect via PUTTY.

 

 

5. Connect the power cable

 

  • Connect the power cable to the device. The power indicator will now light up.

 

 

6. Network configuration

 

  • If your network has a DHCP server, the DX Edition can be assigned an IP address. If no DHCP is available, the device starts with the default IP: 192.168.1.1

 

  • If you do not know the IP address assigned by DHCP, you can query it via the Console RS232 port. To do this, connect your PC to the gateway using a terminal program (e.g.: PUTTY) and the CISCO console cable.

 

  • The speed of the interface is 115200 baud (8N1).

 

 

 

  • Click on the Open Button and press Enter.

 

  • A text-based interface appears in which the current IP address is shown under the Version menu option. The IP address can be altered as you wish under the Network menu option.

 

 

  • If you make the network settings using the serial port, they will only be temporary and will be lost when the Gateway is restarted.

 

  • Permanent network settings should be made in the web interface.

 

  • You can now access the web interface via the IP address.
    Log in here with the following information:
    user name: admin
    password: admin

 

 

7. Licensing

 

 

 

  • After logging into the web interface, you must request a licence for your Gateway. As long as this process has not been completed you will constantly be requested to do so after logging in.

 

 

 

  • After our licensing team has processed the request, you will receive a licensing file which you should upload at this point to the SMS Gateway.

 

 

 

8. SIM card

 

 

ê ATTENTION: Please remove the PIN from the SIM card before inserting it! We recommend not using a PIN to avoid problems with sending text messages.

 

 

  • Select SIM card from the Configuration menu option.

 

  • Select Reboot / shut down from the Configuration menu option.

 

  • Restart the SMS Gateway.

 

 

9. Send a test message

 

  • Enter the IP in your browser and log in again.

 

  • Then select send to number from the SMS menu option.

 

  • You can now send a text message on the screen which then appears by entering a telephone number and a message.

 

  • Further assistance is provided in the Help menu option.
