Introduction

The CallFinder Cellular Gateway connects to a PBX trunk line, PBX

extension line, or to a single PSTN (POTS) line and routes incoming and

outgoing calls through the wireless network. This Quick Start Guide will

detail the physical connections needed for the CallFinder as well as a

few basic setup examples and usage precautions.

Safety Warnings

Handling Precautions

All devices must be handled with certain precautions to avoid damage

due to the accumulation of static charge. Although input protection

circuitry has been incorporated into the devices to minimize the effect

of this static build up, proper precautions should be taken to avoid

exposure to electrostatic discharge during handling and mounting.

Caution: Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches)

between the transmitter’s antenna and the body of the user or

nearby persons. The modem is not designed for, nor intended to be,

used in applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the body of the user.

Safety Recommendations for Rack Installations

•Ensure proper installation in a closed or multi-unit enclosure by

following the recommended installation as defined by the

enclosure manufacturer.

•If installing the wireless CallFinder in a closed or multi-unit

enclosure, ensure adequate airflow so that the maximum

recommended ambient temperature is not exceeded.

•Do not place the device directly on top of other equipment or

place other equipment directly on top of this device.

•Ensure that the device is properly connected to earth ground via

a grounded power cord. If a power strip is used, ensure that the

power strip also provides adequate grounding.

•Ensure that the main supply circuit is capable of handling the

load. See the power label on the device for requirements.

•Maximum ambient temperature is 50 degrees Celsius.

•This device should be installed by qualified personnel.

•Only connect like circuits; e.g., connect SELV (Secondary Extra

Low Voltage) circuits to SELV circuits and TN

(Telecommunications Network) circuits to TN circuits.

RF Interference Issues

It is important to follow any special regulations regarding the use of radio

equipment due in particular to the possibility of radio frequency, RF,

interference. Please follow the safety advice given below carefully.

•Switch OFF your Wireless CallFinder when in an aircraft. The

use of cellular telephones in an aircraft may endanger the

operation of the aircraft, disrupt the cellular network and is

illegal. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension

or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, or legal

action or both.

•Switch OFF your Wireless CallFinder when around gasoline or

diesel-fuel pumps and before filling your vehicle with fuel.

•Switch OFF your Wireless CallFinder in hospitals and any other

place where medical equipment may be in use.

•Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel

depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in

progress.

•There may be a hazard associated with the operation of your

Wireless CallFinder close to inadequately protected personal

medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers. Consult

the manufacturers of the medical device to determine if it is

adequately protected.

•Operation of your Wireless CallFinder close to other electronic

equipment may also cause interference if the equipment is

inadequately protected. Observe any warning signs and

manufacturers’ recommendations.

most situations. See the User Guide on your product CD for the specific

instructions you need to setup the situations mentioned above.

General Setup

Prerequisites:

•You must have the SIM chip from your wireless service provider.

•A small, needle-nose pliers is helpful for inserting the SIM into

its receptacle.

1. Remove the CF100 CallFinder unit from its shipping box.

2. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the SIM cover screw that is

closest to the edge of the chassis. Loosen the second SIM screw

slightly, rotate the cover 180 degrees, and then re-tighten the second

SIM screw slightly to keep the SIM compartment open.

3. Orient the SIM to match the marking in the SIM compartment (the

notched part of the SIM should be near the outer edge of the

CallFinder unit). Insert the SIM into its receptacle (a small needle-

nosed pliers can be helpful for this). Loosen the SIM cover screw

slightly, rotate the SIM cover 180 degrees to its closed position, and

tighten both SIM cover screws.

4. Attach the antenna to the CallFinder.

5. Be sure that the “VOICE/DATA” switch is in the VOICE position.

6. Connect power to the CallFinder.

7. Connect the RJ-11 cable to the appropriate receptacle on the rear of

the CallFinder.
