Wiring Requirements
WARNING
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or
wiring the OnCell device.
Read and Follow These Guidelines
•Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power
wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.
NOTE
Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in
the same wire conduit. To avoid
interference, wires with
different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

- 9 -
•You can use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to
determine which wires should be kept separate. The rule of thumb
is that wiring with similar electrical characteristics can be bundled
together.
•Keep input wiring and output wiring separate.
•It is strongly advised that you label wiring to all devices in the
system when necessary.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be supplied by an external power
source (UL Listed/ IEC 60950

minimum for use wi
th OnCell G4302 Series -T models, or an
ambient temperature
of 55°C minimum for use with OnCell
G4302 Series non-T models.
Grounding the Moxa OnCell Series
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI) by routing the noise from the metal
chassis to the connected ground. Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices. The
minimum cross-sectional area of the grounding conductor should be
equal to that of the input cable. The grounding screw (M4 type) is
located near the power connector.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted
on a well-grounded
mounting surface, such as a metal panel.
The potential
difference between the two ground potentials must be zero. If
the potential difference is NOT zero, the product could be
permanently damaged.
SIM Card Socket
The OnCell G4302-LTE4 comes with two nano-SIM card sockets for
cellular communication. The nano-SIM card sockets are located on the
back panel protected by a rubber cover.
By default, the SIM card in the SIM1 slot will act as the primary SIM
card. To make SIM2 the default SIM, log in to the OnCell’s web UI, and
configure SIM2 as the primary card. When the OnCell device is turned
on, it will boot up based on the configuration information stored on the
designated primary SIM card.
