First Use
Before applying power to the router, connect all the components that you need for your
applications. A cross-shaped screwdriver is necessary to insert a SIM card or a microSD card.
Do not run the router without antennas connected to the main antenna connectors as the
energy from the transmission is effectively reflected by the open end and can damage
the equipment.
ICR-4401 routers are not equipped with a cellular module, which means that the SIM
card slots together with the cellular and GNSS antenna connectors are not available on
the router.
1. Antenna
Use SMA connectors to connect the antennas to the router; see the figure below. It is highly
recommended to connect all the antennas.

2. SIM Card
The SIM card reader for two mini-SIM cards (2FF with size of 25.0 x 15.0 x 0.76 mm)
is located on the router’s rear panel under a metal cover. If you intend to use this device to
communicate over a cellular network, please place an activated data-provisioned SIM card
into the SIM card reader. Unscrew the cover and push your SIM card into the SIM1 or SIM2
slot until it clicks into place. You can install two SIM cards simultaneously to utilize the SIM
card switching feature.
Disconnect the router from the power supply before handling the SIM card.

3. Power
The router requires an external DC power supply. The DC voltage required is between
+9 and +48 V DC. The router has built-in protection against reverse polarity without signaling.
Connect the power supply cable to the PWR connector on the router’s front panel; see the
figure below.
The power voltage for the PoE router version must be 48 V DC to work as the PoE PSE
device.
4. Ethernet
For an initial configuration, made in a web browser, connect a PC by an Ethernet cable to
the default LAN interface, use one of the ETH0 ports, see the figure above. By default, this
interface has the following configuration:
Connectors Purpose Default Setting
ETH0 LAN ports (default)
Connect your PC to one of these ports to
get the router web interface.

Configuration
1. Configuring the Device Using the Web Browser
You can use a web browser running on your PC to get access to the router web interface.
Here you can perform router monitoring, configuration, and administration. First, connect
the PC to the default LAN interface as described in the Ethernet chapter. To get the router
interface, enter the https://192.168.1.1 address in a web browser. Please note that usage
of the HTTPS protocol for secure communication over the network is required.
By default, there is just the root user account created on the router. See the product label
on the router for its default password. Log in to the web interface by the root user and his
password. See the configuration manual of the router for a detailed description and examples
of the router configuration.
After logging on to the device for the first time, we strongly recommend changing the
default password due to security reasons.
For security reasons, it is highly recommended to update the firmware of the router to the
latest version regularly. Downgrading the firmware to an older version than the production
version or uploading a firmware intended for a different device may cause the malfunction
of the device.
2. Configuration Settings via WebAccess/DMP
Your router has been pre-installed with the WebAccess/DMP client. For its activation,
enable it in the router’s web interface (Customization -> User Modules -> WebAccess/DMP
Client). For more information see the configuration manual of your router.
The activated client periodically uploads router identificators, its configuration, and cellu-
lar network statistics to the WebAccess/DMP server.
With the WebAccess/DMP client activated, you may configure the router from WebAc-
cess/DMP portal. Navigate your browser to https://www.wadmp.com.
If this is your first time, please self-sign-up with the site. If not, please log in with your
username and password. Once logged in, further assistance can be found at https://docs.
wadmp.com.

3. Restoring and Backing up the Router Configuration
If you reset the router, the current configuration replaces by the default factory settings.
Therefore, we recommend you back up the router configuration before resetting the device.
Refer to the configuration manual for more information.
You can restore the default router configuration once the router boots up and the PWR
LED starts blinking. To do so, press the RST button on the router’s front panel for more than
4 seconds. After you press this button, all settings reset to the default values, and the router
will reboot.
