Preface
■ Introduction
This series of 4G smart hardware products can collect local device data including
running status and faults and interwork with Inovance’s Internet of Things (IoT) server
using 4G, Wi‑Fi, or Ethernet to enable remote commissioning and maintenance
functions. Users can access the web server to monitor status and analyze faults of
local devices. Featuring security, reliability, wide application, and strong stability, this
series of products are widely used for elevators, air compressors, and cranes.
Before using the product, read this user guide carefully to fully understand the
features of the product and ensure safe use. This user guide mainly describes
specifications, installation dimensions, ports, performance parameters, wiring, and
typical applications of this series of products.

Safety Instructions
●The user name and password are used for authentication of remote device
operations. Therefore, save them securely and take necessary measures to
prevent account stealing. If the user name and password are stolen, great
losses may be caused.
●Before performing remote device operations, contact on‑site engineers to
ensure safety situations. Otherwise, great losses may be caused.
●This series of products are used for industrial control with remote data
exchange based on network technologies. Inovance has taken necessary
technical measures to ensure data security. However, network risks (such as
hacking) that Inovance cannot control may still exist, and Inovance is not
responsible for losses caused by such network risks.

A
B
1. Pull down the DIN rail mounting hook at the back of the module.
2. Hook the upper fixing jaw on the module to the top edge of the DIN tail along
direction A, and press the module along direction B, until the module is completely
embedded in the DIN rail.
3. Push up the DIN rail mounting hook until you hear a click. If the DIN rail mounting
hook is out of the reach of your fingers, use a tool, such as a screwdriver.
●Keep metal objects away from the top and sides of the antenna.
●Do not put the antenna in a shielded place, such as a metal cabinet.
●Keep the antenna and its feed away from the power and signal cables to
avoid mutual interference.
