1. Safety Instructions
Please, observe the following instructions:
•The router must be used in compliance with all applicable international and national laws
and in compliance with any special restrictions regulating the utilization of the router in
prescribed applications and environments.
•To prevent possible injury and damage to appliances and to ensure compliance with
all relevant provisions, use only the original accessories. Unauthorized modifications or
the use of unapproved accessories may result in damage to the router and / or a breach
of applicable regulations. Unauthorized modifications or use of unapproved accessories
may void the warranty.
•The router can not be opened.
•Turn off the router and disconnect it from power supply before handling the SIM card.
•Caution! The SIM card could be swallowed by small children.
•Input voltage must not exceed 36 V DC max.
•Do not expose the router to extreme ambient conditions. Protect the router against dust,
moisture and high temperature.
•Only routers with appropriate certification and labelling should be used in locations where
flammable and explosive materials are present, including gas stations, chemical plants,
or locations in which explosives are used. We remind users of the duty to observe the
restrictions concerning the utilization of radio devices at such places.
•Switch off the router when traveling by plane. Utilization of the router on a plane may
endanger the operation of the plane or interfere with the mobile telephone network, and
may be unlawful. Failure to observe these instructions may result in the suspension or
cancellation of telephone services for the respective client and / or may result in legal
sanctions.
•When using the router in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as cardiac
pacemakers or hearing aids, you must proceed with heightened caution.
•The router may cause interference when used in close proximity to TV sets, radio re-
ceivers or personal computers.
•It is recommended that you create an appropriate copy or backup of all important settings
that are stored in the memory of the device.

3. Router Description
LTE router LR77 v is used to wirelessly connect various equipments and devices via Eth-
ernet interface 10/100 to the Internet or Intranet. Thanks to high data transfer speed of up to
100 Mbps (download) and upload speed up to 50 Mbps it is an ideal wireless solution for traffic
and security camera systems, individual computers, LAN networks, automatic teller machines
(ATM) and other self-service terminals, etc. Routers LR77 v2B L45 are intended for use in
the 450 MHz band whose main advantage is the long range. The lower frequency, the less
transmitters are needed for covering.
As a standard, this LTE cellular router is equipped with one Ethernet 10/100, one USB
Host port, one binary Input/output (I/O) port and one SIM card. To save and backup commu-
nication data a version with two SIM cards is available. The wide range of interface options
of the router further expands Port1 and Port2 expansion ports, which are selected by the cus-
tomer. For Port1 are available: Ethernet port 10/100, serial interface ports RS232, RS485,
RS422, MBUS or inputs/outputs (I/O – CNT). Port2 may be equipped with serial interfaces
RS232, RS485, RS422, MBUS, wireless interfaces WIFI or WMBUS, SDH expansion port or
inputs/outputs (I/O – CNT). Both of ports can be fitted with internal switch (exp. port SWITCH).
This wireless router is supplied either in a plastic or metal casing, based on the requirements
of the customer.
Configuration is done via web interface protected by password. The router supports cre-
ation of VPN tunnels using technologies IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP to ensure safe commu-
nication. Web interface provides detail statistics about the router activities, signal strength,
detailed log, etc. Cellular router supports functions: DHCP, NAT, NAT-T, DynDNS, NTP, VRRP,
control by SMS and many other function.
Other diagnostic functions ensuring continuous communication include automatic inspec-
tion of PPP connection offering an automatic restart feature – in case of connection losses,
or hardware watchdog which monitors the status of the router. With the help of a special
window (start up script window) you may insert Linux scripts for various actions. For some ap-
plications the key option to create several different configurations for one LTE wireless router,
the so-called profiles (maximum of 4), and the option to switch between them (for example
via SMS, binary input status, etc.) is essential. Cellular routers LR77 v2 may automatically
upgrade configuration and firmware from server. This allows mass reconfiguration of many
routers in one time.
The router also supports additional software like R-SeeNet for permanent traffic monitoring
of routers or communication VPN server Digicluster.

•fleet management
•security system

5.5 Mounting recommendations
•possibility to be put on a work surface,
•DIN rail EN 60715 with included plastic or metal clip.
For the most of applications with a built-in router in a switch board it is possible to recognize
two kinds of environments:
•no public and industry environment of low voltage with high interference,
•public environment of low voltage without high interference.
For both of these environments it is possible to mount router to a switch board, the following
there is no need to have examination immunity or issues in connection with EMC according to
EN 60439-1 ed.2:00 + A1:04.
Attention: If the negative pole of the router is grounded, there is no protection against
reversed polarity!
Compliance of EN 60439-1 ed.2:00 + A1:04 specification it is necessary to observe next
assembly of the router to the switch – board:
•For whip antennas we recommend to observe a distance of 6 cm from cables and metal
surfaces on every side due to the elimination of interference. While using an external
antenna except for the switch-board it is necessary to fit a lightening conductor.
•Before mounting a router on sheet-steel we recommend using a "cable" antenna.

LR77 v2
•For every cables we recommend to bind the bunch, we recommend for this use:
–Length of the bunch (combination of power supply and data cables) can be maxi-
mum 1.5 m. If the length of data cables exceeds 1.5 m or in the event of, the cable
leads towards the switch – board. We recommend installing over – voltage protec-
tors (surge suppressors).
–With data cables they mustn’t carry cables with reticular tension ∼230 V/50 Hz.
Figure 13: Cable routing (plastic) Figure 14: Cable routing (metal)
•Sufficient space must be left in front of individual connectors for handling of cables,
Figure 15: Space in front of connectors (plastic) Figure 16: Space in front of connectors (metal)
•For correct function of the router we recommend to use in the switch-board earth-bonding
distribution frame for grounding of power supply of router, data cables and antenna.

5.6 Removal from the DIN rail
The DIN rail clip is suitable for a DIN rail according to EN 60715 standard only. The default
position of plastic or metal rail clip, which is used for mounting the router on a DIN rail, is
shown in the following figure. Its position can be changed on some models (back or bottom).
When changing the position of the DIN rail clip, tighten the screws with max. 0.4 Nm torque.
Figure 17: Default position of plastic and metal DIN rail clip
To remove the router from the DIN rail, push the router down lightly, so the bottom part of
the DIN rail clip (hitched to the DIN rail) gets out of the rail and then pull out the bottom part of
the router away from the DIN rail.
