Tighten the antenna connector – never use gently with your hand
wrenches!
Note
The antenna without cable has a sufficient gain for trouble-free
operation in normal conditions. If the GSM signal is poor or you want to
place your antenna separately from EasyGate , you can use an antenna
with an SMA-connector terminated cable. The antenna should be
mounted vertically.
The Antenna shall be located within the same building as the main
equipment.
For antenna parameters see the " Technical Parameters".
SIM Card Installation
Slot for SIM card is placed on the connector panel. Insert the SIM card to the slot with
contacts oriented to the front panel with LED. Make sure that the card is locked
properly.
Cautions
Make sure that the GSM provider's SIM card is compatible with the GSM
network supported by your EasyGate version.
Operator services and SIM card services, such as preferred networks,
SMS service centre, PIN protection etc. must be set in your mobile phone
before inserting your SIM card into EasyGate.

2N TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz 16/70
Power Supply Connection

adapter is used, the voltage range and polarity have to be maintained. See technical
parameters.
EasyGate with battery option allows to support functionality in case of power failure.
For backup use four pieces of accumulators NiMh size AA. These accumulators are not
part of delivery. Put the accumulators to the battery holder on the bottom side under
the cover prior to installation. Polarity of accumulators is marked inside of the battery
space.
Warning
Do not activate the power supply until the antenna is connected to
EasyGate to avoid the GSM module damage.
For backup use only suggested type of accumulators NiMh size AA. Only
this type of storage batteries is permitted for use!.When another type of
batteries is used, there is a danger of damage of device or even
explosion!
