supply. Please refer to the topic Troubleshooting documented on
page 4for more detailed information.
Enter PIN
Most SIM cards are protected with a PIN (Personal Identity Number),
which you get from your network operator and which you need in order to
access the network. If the SIM card is not protected by a PIN code, then
you do not need to enter a PIN.
The FWT starts the network search automatically. If the SIM card is
protected by the PIN code, then the LEDs will flash simultaneously.
There are two ways of entering the PIN code:
•With the telephone
•sing the PC
Via telephone
Please follow these steps before you enter your PIN:
1. Pick up the telephone and dial the PIN code. Press the # key on your
telephone or wait until you hear a beep tone.
2. If you make a mistake while entering your PIN, hang up the telephone
and try again.
If the PIN is correct, you will hear a beep over the telephone (positive
indication tone). If it is incorrect, a deep tone will sound (error indication
tone).
Via web interface
Please follow these steps before you enter your PIN:
1. Connect your PC to the FWT.
•Via the SB Cable: insert the mini- SB plug into the
corresponding connector on the FWT. Then insert the standard
SB plug into any available SB port on your PC.
•Via an analog Modem: connect the analog modem to your PC
as per modem supplier instructions. Then connect the
telephone cable to your modem line output and RJ11
connector on the FWT.

5. Type in your PIN and then click on the Submit button.
If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times, the SIM card will be blocked.
If this happens, you can unblock it by using the P K (Personal nblocking
Key), which you also may get from your network operator. Please refer to
the topic SI Card Security documented on page 4 for more detailed
information.
Note: Once you have entered the PIN code for the first time, you
will not have to enter it again unless you change your SIM card.
The F T performs this operation automatically in case of power
failure.
Network Search
After you have switched on your FWT and entered the PIN, the FWT
automatically searches for a network.
When a network is found, the Radio LED is on or flashes depending on
the GSM signal strength.
Note: If the Radio LED is off, you do not have access to the GSM
network at your present location.

connectors.

Connecting Devices to the FWT
Fixed Wireless Terminal: G32 and G36 models 17
The FWT is also equipped with a SB port that enables you to use it as a
GSM modem. This enables PC fax and for data transfers as well as SMS
services.
Note: hen making the connections, the two-wire telephone cable
polarity does not matter.
Tip: If your home or company is already wired with telephone
cable, you only need to connect the cable to the F T RJ11
connector and your telephone line will be up and running in all
rooms.
Note: The telephone wire must be installed indoors.
Note: The telephone wire should not exceed 600 meters.
Checking the connections
Once the devices (1 up to 3) have been connected, do the Ring Back Test
as described below in order to check the connections:
•Lift one telephone and dial **#10#
**#10#**#10#
**#10#. You will hear a beep tone
and the terminal LEDs will start flashing. Three flashes indicate
it is synchronized.
•Hang up the telephone and check that all the connected
telephones start to ring.
•Lift any of the telephones connected and then hang up again.
The ringing will stop and the LEDs will return to normal
operation mode.
Tip: If any of the telephones are not ringing, check your telephone
cable layout and connections to make sure that all devices are
properly connected.
Checking the quality of the calls
se any of the telephones connected to the FWT terminal to make a call.
Check the speech quality and ask the receiver to call you back to confirm
that you can also receive calls.
If you have problems, please refer to the topic Troubleshooting
documented on page 4 for more detailed information.
Installing the FWT as a telephone line
The FWT is designed to provide a telephone line (RJ11 connector) to
which up to three (3) Fixed Line devices can be connected in parallel. The
FWT provides a single telephone line, which means that only one
communication can take place at a time, in the same way as an ordinary

Connecting Devices to the FWT
18 Fixed Wireless Terminal: G32 and G36 models
fixed line. You cannot, for example, receive or originate a telephone call
while sending or receiving a fax.
Warning: In order to avoid GSM interferences (noise), place the
F T at least three (3) meters (horizontal) away from electronic
devices, including the telephone equipment connected to the F T,
or other household electronic devices such as televisions or radio
receivers. The difference in height should be at least 2 meters
(vertical). This is not necessary if you use telephone devices that
fulfill the Immunity Characteristics settled by the IEC CISPR-24
standard. In this case, a minimum security distance of 20 cm is
recommended.
Connecting the FWT to a PBX
This feature is only available for the FWT G36 model. The G36 FWT is
designed to provide a telephone line (RJ11 connector) that behaves in the
same way as an analog trunk.
Generic req irements
The PBX should meet the following generic requirements for G36 FWT
connectivity:
•The PBX must provide analog trunks.
•One position of the trunk must be assigned to each G36 FWT.
•The trunk card must support either Busy Tone Detection (BTD)
or Polarity Reversal Detection on answer and release.

Connecting Devices to the FWT
Fixed Wireless Terminal: G32 and G36 models 19
•The PBX can be programmed to utilize Least Cost Routing
(LCR), if available, to automatically choose the trunk where the
G36 FWT is connected.
•If the PBX does not offer LCR, choose the trunk where the G36
FWT is connected manually with a special dialed prefix. Check
the installation in the same way as before.
The G36 FWT is compatible with most analog PBXs on the market.
G36 FWT connectivity to the analog tr nk of the PBX
If the PBX fulfils the requirements for FWT connectivity, listed above,
follow all the installation steps as described in the topic Installing the FWT
on the Wall documented on page 4.
Note: A minimum distance of 3 meters between the G36 F T and
the PBX is recommended. The cable distance between the PBX
and the G36 F T should not exceed 600 meters, and the
connection cable should be at least 0.4mm
2
in diameter.
Warning: If you install more than one G36 F T to a PBX, their
antennas have to be separated by 20 cm in height or 2 meters in
the horizontal.
If you are using an analog PBX — disconnect the telephone you have used
to enter the PIN and test the FWT, and connect the analog trunk cable
from the PBX to the FWT telephone line interface.
Check your PBX programming guide to see how to program your PBX to
route certain calls through the FWT trunk if you are using a Least Cost
Routing (LCR) programmed PBX. Once LCR is programmed, make a call
to a mobile telephone number. See if the call is established through the
FWT and check the speech quality.

Connecting Devices to the FWT
20 Fixed Wireless Terminal: G32 and G36 models
If the PBX does not offer the LCR option, choose the FWT trunk manually
with a specific prefix. Check the installation in the same way as before. If
you encounter problems, contact your distributor or network operator.
Warning: The PBX may require specific programming: both
programming and installation should be done by specialized
service personnel.
Using telephones
Telephones connected to the FWT work in the same way as if they were
connected to a fixed line network.
Warning: You will not be able to make or receive data or fax calls
while a speech call is ongoing.
Note: You can also benefit from some GSM functionality that you
usually do not have in the fixed line network. Please refer to the
topic Advanced Features documented on page 4 for more detailed
information.
Please refer to the topic Audible Tones documented on page 4 for more
detailed information.
Using fax machines
The FWT allows the connection of Group 3 analog fax machines to the
telephone line interface, in the same way as a telephone.
Note: The fax communication service has to be registered with
your network operator. Otherwise, the network will not allow faxes
to be sent or received.
Note: You will not be able to make or receive other calls while a fax
communication is established.
Sending a fax
The FWT is programmed to automatically detect outgoing calls made by
an analog fax, meaning that the user simply has to use the fax in the same
way as a conventional telephone line.
Warning: If your fax is an old model and is not able to send the fax
identification, CNG tone, you should include *01* before the
destination number (B-number) in order to inform the F T that the
next call is a fax call (Example: *01*B-number). This is not usually
necessary, as most faxes automatically send the CNG tone so that
the fax call is made automatically by the F T.
