…
it locks into place.
Note: Before removing or inserting the SIM card,
ensure that the power has been turned off
and the power connector has been removed from the MRD-310.
Connecting the Antenna
The antenna connector is an SMA, an antenna may be connected directly to this connec-
tor, ensure that the connecting nut is done up tightly in order to make a good connec-
tion.
Connect the Power Supply
The MRD-310 requires a DC power source in the voltage range of 10 to 60 VDC.
The unit is designed to self protect from permanent damage if the voltage exceeds
60 VDC or if reverse polarity is applied. The modem may need to be returned for serv-
ice if this occurs. The modem can also be damaged if there is any potential difference
between the chassis-ground, RS-232 signal ground, power (–) input, or antenna shield.
Before connecting any wiring, ensure all components are earthed to a common ground
point. An external isolator will be required if a positive earth power supply is used.
Ethernet
The Ethernet ports are on the front of the unit and are marked LAN 1 and LAN 2, each
port has a LED indicating the connection speed and a LED indicating activity as shown
in figure 2. Both ports are capable of auto-negotiation, meaning cross-over
cables are not required. The Ethernet ports are switched, allowing more
than one Ethernet device to be connected to the unit at one time.
