Installation of the SeaWire Pro
The SeaWire Pro solution is a configuration of 2x automatic turning directional antennas
(SeaWire RouDem) and a Below Deck Unit (BDU). Repeat step 1-4 for each SeaWire RouDem.
STEP 1 –INSERTING THE MICRO-SIM CARD
You find the SIM card slot at the bottom of the RouDem.
1. Carefully click out the SIM card in Micro-SIM format.
IMPORTANT: press on the top of the SIM card to make sure there is a smooth surface.
2. RouDem’s SIM card slot is a click system. It is important that you do not use tweezers,
pliers, or other tools to force the SIM card in/out. Use the click system to gently
insert/remove the SIM card by using your fingers by clicking it into place and clicking it
out. Any resistance other than the smooth pressure of the spring is a warning that
something is not correct. When installing/removing the SIM-card the RouDem must be
turned off.
a. IMPORTANT: Insert the SIM card with the angled corner facing the left and the gold
area facing down. When it is placed correctly you will hear/sense a ‘click’.
3. Check if the device is working with the purchased SIM card. Turn on the RouDem by
pressing the on/off button and wait for the LED to light green. It takes a few minutes. If
the LED remain red, please read the troubleshoot section.

STEP 2 –PREPARING MOUNTING BRACKET AND CONNECTING THE
ETHERNET CABLE
IMPORTANT: It is required to mount the mounting bracket to avoid humidity and dirt entering the
RouDem.
1. Pass the cable through the cable gland.
a. Unscrew the sealing nut and use a small tool such as an Allen key or a pen to get
the seal out.
b. Pass the cable through the body and the sealing nut, mount the seal on the cable
and place the seal back into the claw.
c. Screw on the sealing nut and make sure it is tightened very tight.
2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port in the RouDem.
3. Affix the mounting bracket to the RouDem with the five screws using the supplied Torx 10
Key. IMPORTANT: it is important that the mounting bracket is secured with all five
screws to maintain waterproofness.
4. Tighten the mounting bracket to a pole of Ø38mm/1.5” pole by tightening the two grub
screws with the supplied Unbraco 4 Key.

STEP 3 –MOUNTING THE SEAWIRE PRO
In the following you can see examples of installation on different types of vessels. The installation
examples are for inspiration. Before installing each SeaWire RouDem permanently you should
determine the suitability of the location for installing.
Installation considerations:
•Install the SeaWire RouDem above deck at the highest spot possible on a pole, a mast,
or another appropriate platform with opportunity to accommodate a pole of Ø38mm/1.5’’
•Place the RouDem where there is a good all-round view. It is rarely possible to place the
RouDem where a completely clear view in all directions are available, but as good as
possible to obtain best performance.
•The RouDem should always be installed in a horizontal position and upright.
•Where possible install the RouDem away from radiocommunications antennas,
radiotelephone equipment, satellite, VHF’s and GPS antennas to prevent electrical noise
and interference.
•Install each RouDem port and starboard on the vessel to make up for blind spots.
Tanker Example:

Installation of the SeaWire Pro User Guide SeaWire Pro
MiWire ApS 11
STEP 4 –CABLE WIRING
Cable wiring considerations:
•Where possible avoid routing the cables near other electrical equipment and cables.
•If possible, all cable routing must be done in a cable duct.
•Do not apply any load to the connectors.
•Cable specification:
Network cable type
CAT6 or above, UV- and water resistant, double shielded,
grounded
Connector 1
RJ45 (male)
Connector 2
RJ45 (male)
Length
The length of the cables depends on the location for
installment. In the System Configuration section, you will find
an overview of the set up. Max. length is 100m.
STEP 5 –POWERING THE ROUDEMS
1. Install the BDU in a 19” rack cabinet, plug in the power cable and power with 100-
240VDC.
2. Connect the ethernet cables from both RouDems to the dedicated ports in the BDU. If not
the RouDems are already turned on or turn on automatically as they are powered, turn
the RouDems on by pressing the on/off button in the bottom of the RouDem. If you do not
have access to the on/off button please read the restart/reboot part in the troubleshoot
section.
3. Optional: connect to local LAN/network equipment via the LAN ports in the BDU.
Battery feature:
In case of power outage, RouDem is battery powered. Full charging takes 4h 30min after which it
can operate for at least 8 hours on battery power. Note: the device will not charge at
temperatures below 10°C and above 45°C.

Installation of the SeaWire Pro User Guide SeaWire Pro
MiWire ApS 12
STEP 6 –CONFIGURATION OF INTERNET VIA SEAWIRE ROUDEM
Connect directly via RouDem’s WiFi and/or connect with a PC or external network equipment.
WiFi
1. Select WiFi settings on a compatible device e.g., a computer, a smartphone, or tablet.
The device will automatically search for available WiFi networks (make sure WiFi is on).
2. Choose the WiFi network with the name containing MiWire. The SSID (network name)
and WiFi key. Find the information on the unit label, which is found under the RouDem,
on the box or on the registration flyer.
PC and External network equipment
1. Connect the BDU to a PC or external network equipment e.g., a router, a switch or WiFi
access points by using the LAN ports.
STEP 7 –REGISTRATION
This step must be performed by the end-user of the product. When registering the RouDem you
can receive the best service and support. Follow the instruction on the registration flyer.
! IMPORTANT INSTRUCTION !
After the two SeaWire RouDem’s are installed on the ship and connected to the BDU Pro the
compass’s must be calibrated. This is done by the following procedure:
1. Connect BDU’s output LAN port to a PC
2. On PC open a browser
3. In the browsers URL line type: 192.168.2.1 and press enter
4. In sign in menu insert ‘admin’in Username field and ‘1234’ in Password field and click
‘Sign in
5. Click on tab ‘Compass & Map’
6. Click on ‘Calibrate’
7. The calibration takes approx. 1 min
8. Repeat step 3-6 but in URL line type 192.168.3.1. Use the same log in information.

MiWire user interface
After installation of the SeaWire Pro solution has been performed, the system is fully operational.
In this section there will be a description of system settings which are configurable from the Web
Server/MiWire user interface.
MiWire user interface presents an overall status of the RouDem and allow the user to configure
WiFi and network related settings, get an overview SIM card information and perform device
commands. You can only access the user interface if you are connected to a MiWire related
network either by WiFi or cable.
1. Open MiWire user interface by entering 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.3.1 in a web browser.
There is a web server for each RouDem.
2. Log in with Username: admin & Password: 1234 (IMPORTANT: for optimum security, we
recommend changing the password). The system will always be delivered from the
factory with this default log in.
3. The menu bar in the top of the page consists of six tabs: Status, WiFi, Network, SIM,
Compass & Map and Admin. We do not recommend changing the settings if you are not
familiar with the configurations parameters or have been trained or consulted with an
expert. In the following each tab will be explained. Settings noted with default and
marked with bold are factory settings.

Status
The status page presents an overall status of the RouDem. The lamps in the left side can light
red, yellow, and green (see the Troubleshoot section if some of the lamps are red). The right side
shows unique information for the specific RouDem.
IMPORTANT: If there is no WAN IP Address shown it is most likely because the APN settings
are incorrect. Go to the Network tab and set the correct APN settings according to the current
operator. The information can usually be found by looking up the MCC and MNC at the internet.
