Introduction

This guide shows you how to set up your MultiModem. For detailed information,

product specifications, troubleshooting tips, and more, see the User Guide,

available on your MultiModem CD.

Check Multi-Tech’s Web site for current versions of our product documentation.

General Safety

The modem is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile

applications. “Fixed” means that the device is physically secured at one location

and is not able to be easily moved to another location. In a “Mobile” application, the

device may be moved regularly from one location to another.

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.

RF Interference Issues

Avoid possible radio frequency (RF) interference by carefully following the safety

guidelines below.

•Switch OFF your MultiModem 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 MultiModem when around gasoline or diesel-fuel pumps and

before filling your vehicle with fuel.

•Switch OFF your MultiModem 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 MultiModem in

the vicinity of 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.

Establishing a Wireless Account

Obtain a wireless account through a Wireless Service Provider, for example,

Cingular, Sprint, or Verizon. Establishing an account is necessary in order for you

to use the service provider's network. If you establish a EDGE account, you will

receive, from the provider, a SIM pre-programmed for your use. You will need to

insert the SIM into your MultiModem module. If you obtain a CDMA account, no

SIM chip is needed.

Cingular and Sprint

Contact Multi-Tech, a certified national activation agent for Cingular and Sprint, to

set up one of these accounts.

Verizon and Others

For Verizon and other accounts, contact their activation agents directly.

Activation Instructions

See the Sprint, Verizon, or general Customer Activation Notice included with your

MultiModem for a list of the information you must give to the activation agent. You

will receive, depending upon your provider, one or two phone numbers and a

service programming code or lock code. Write these numbers down because you

will have to use them to configure the your unit.

The User Guide presents detailed instructions about establishing wireless accounts

and activating those accounts.

If you have any questions or want to set up your account, contact Multi-Tech

Systems, Inc. at:

800-972-2439 or 763-717-5863.
