RF EX P O S U R E C O M P L I A N C E
The use of this device in any other type of host configuration may not
comply with the RF exposure requirements and should be avoided.
During operation, a 20 cm separation distance should be maintained
between the antenna, whether extended or retracted, and the
user’s/bystander’s body (excluding hands, wrists, feet, and ankles) to
ensure RF exposure compliance.
Caution
Change or modification without the express consent of Maxon
Electronics Australia Pty. Ltd. voids the user’s authority to use the
equipment. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in an appropriate installation. The modem is
a transmitting device with similar output power to a mobile phone. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not used in accordance with instructions, can cause harmful
radiation to radio communication. Use only the supplied or an approved
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
impair call quality, damage the device, or result in violation of RF
exposure regulations.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If the equipment does cause harmful interference
in radio and television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Re-orient or relocate the receiving radio or TV antenna
Increase the separation distance between the equipment and
the receiver
Contact Maxon Australia Technical Support for assistance.
Notes The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly
approved by Maxon Australia could void the warrantee.
* The product needs to be supplied by a limited power source
or the power supply provided. Otherwise, safety will not be
ensured

Potentially Unsafe Areas
Posted Facilities: Turn off this device in any facility or area when
posted notices require you to do so.
Blasting Areas: Turn off your device where blasting is in progress.
Observe restrictions and follow any regulations or rules.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres: Turn off your device when you
are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all
signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not
always clearly marked. They include:
fuelling areas such as gas or petrol stations
below deck on boats
transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as propane or
butane
areas when the air contains chemicals or particles such as
grain, dust or metal powders
avoid using the modem in areas that emit electromagnetic
waves or enclosed metallic structures e.g. lifts
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off
your engine

SIM card Installation
Power off the router, and press the eject button next to the SIM card tray
with a small sharp object. Upon doing so the SIM card tray will eject from
the face of the modem. Place the SIM card into the SIM card tray
(Ensure that the side of the SIM card with the metal connection points is
facing upwards), and then insert the SIM card tray back into the SIM
card outlet.
Antenna Installation
Attach the SMA male connector of the cellular antenna into the female
SMA interface on the router labeled “Antenna”.
Attach the SMA male connector of the WIFI antenna into the female
SMA interface on the router labeled “WIFI”.
The router supports an RS232 interface and a 10/100M Ethernet interface.
These two interfaces both utilize an RJ45 connector, with the RS232
interface labeled “Console” and the 10/100M Ethernet interface labeled
“ETH”.
Plug the RJ45 end of the serial cable into the RJ45 outlet of the router
labeled “console”, and plug the DB9F end of the serial cable into the
RS232 serial interface of the user’s device.

Datamax is configured via a web interface. In order to access the
Datamax web interface you will need a computer with a spare Ethernet
LAN port. The LAN card configuration should have the Internet Protocol
TCP/IP set to obtain an IP Address automatically and obtain DNS server
address automatically.
To check these settings go to your LAN adaptor properties and check
your Interment Protocol TCP/IP settings, it should look as follows:
Connection Steps:
1. Connect the Ethernet cable supplied with your router to your
computer Ethernet LAN port
2. Your computer will get an IP address from the Datamax DHCP
range automatically.

3. In your web browser type 192.168.1.1 in the Address (URL) field (The
Default IP Address of the Ethernet port is 192.168.1.1). The router will
prompt you for login credentials the default username and
password are both “admin”.

Internet IP Address
By default, the Internet IP Address of the router is allocated by the ISP
automatically. Should your connection require a static IP address you
can set the address if the ISP supports this feature.
Domain Name Server (DNS) Address
Normally, the Domain Name Server (DNS) Address of the router is
allocated by the ISP automatically. You can also use your own DNS
address.
If you want to use your own DNS, please make sure that the DNS address
is accessible.
Keep Online Detection
This function is used to detect whether the Internet connection is active.
Once enabled and the router detects that the connection is inactive, it
will redial automatically to re-establish a data connection.
Detection Method:
None
Detection is disabled
Ping
The router will send an ICMP packet to the primary

server, if it fails it will try the secondary detection server,
if the router does not receive ICMP response it will try to
reconnect to the network.
Route
Using the route method, the router will use a trace route
method for detecting the connection status by trying to
reach the primary and secondary detection servers.
PPP
Detects data connection status. With this method, the
router will monitor the PPP connection layer status.

Server IP
Is the address of the secondary server used to respond
to the router’s detection packets. This item is only valid
for "Ping" and "Route" methods
Note: with “Route” or “Ping” detection methods, it is quite important to
make sure that the “Primary Detection Server IP” and “Backup Detection
Server IP” are reachable, as they have to respond to the router.
