3 Installing your Edge Gateway WARNING: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, read the safety and regulatory information that is shipped with your system. For additional best practices information, go to www.dell.com/ regulatory_compliance. Safety and regulatory information WARNING: The Edge Gateway must be installed by knowledgeable, skilled persons familiar with local and/or international electrical codes and regulations.
Professional installation instructions Installation personnel This product is designed for specific applications and needs to be installed by qualified personnel with RF and regulatory-related knowledge. The general user shall not attempt to install or change the setting. Installation location The product shall be installed at a location where the radiating antenna is kept 20 cm from nearby persons in its normal operation condition in order to meet regulatory RF exposure requirements.
● Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. ● This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Radiation exposure statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the active transceiver and your body.
NOTE: In some environments where the Edge Gateway may be installed, a more robust mounting method is required. For example, for mounting in marine applications, it is recommended to use only the standard— mount bracket. The recommendation is due to the presence of vibrations unique to the marine environment. 1. Connect an Ethernet cable to Ethernet port one. 2. Connect the antennas depending on the configuration ordered (optional).
4. Secure the antenna by tightening the rotating head of the connector until it firmly holds the antenna in the preferred position (upright or straight). NOTE: Antenna images are for illustrative purposes only. Actual appearance may differ from the images provided. 5. Connect all desired cables to the appropriate I/O ports on the Edge Gateway. 6. Open the micro-SIM or micro-SD card access door.
7. Insert a micro-SIM card into the top micro-SIM card slot and activate your mobile broadband service. CAUTION: Dell recommends that you insert the micro-SIM card before turning on the Edge Gateway. NOTE: Ensure that you firmly screw back the access door after closing. NOTE: Contact your service provider to activate your micro-SIM card. 8. Insert a micro-SD card into the bottom micro-SD card slot. NOTE: Remove the SD card slot filler before inserting a micro-SD card.
NOTE: Secondary enclosures are sold separately. 10.
NOTE: Shut down your system before you change the power sources. 11. Replace the dust caps on any unused ports. 12. When setting up the Edge Gateway for the first time, complete the operating system setup. For more information, see Setting up your operating system. NOTE: MAC addresses and the IMEI number are available on the label at the front of the Edge Gateway. Remove the label at install.
Activating your mobile broadband service CAUTION: Before you power on the Edge Gateway, insert a micro-SIM card. NOTE: Ensure that the service provider has already activated the micro-SIM card before you use it in the Edge Gateway. 1. Remove the screw to open the micro-SIM card access door. 2. Insert a micro-SIM card into the top micro-SIM card slot. 3. Replace the screw, and close the micro-SIM card access door. 4. Power on the Edge Gateway. 5. Connect to a mobile network.
