Follow the instructions in this guide to install the IPWireless LTE Connection Manager and driver files. This device is an LTE USB Modem operating with 3GPP LTE networks. Used with laptop or desktop computers, the device provides the user with superior performance for fixed or mobile Internet access. System Requirements For your IPWireless LTE USB Modem to work properly your computer must be running: • Operating System: ‐ Windows XP (32bit SP3, 64bit SP2) ‐ Windows Vista (32 or 64 bit) Operating System: ‐ Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit) • Minimum System Configuration: ‐ Intel Pentium III or faster ‐ 64MB RAM ‐ 200MB or greater free disk space ‐ USB 2.0 port 4 5 IPWireless LTE USB Modem Features The diagram below shows the main mechanical features of the IPWireless LTE USB Modem USIM Card USIM Card Orientation Slider to open RF Ports LED Indicator Installing USIM Card Before using the IPWireless LTE USB Modem, gently insert USIM card into the slot as shown on the previous page. Please pay attention to how to place the card in the slot. The metal contacts on the card should face downwards and the cut edge of the card will be visible after inserting the card into the slot ‐ the modem will not work if the card is inserted improperly. WARNING! The LTE USB stick currently supports the most popular mini card format. This is shown below by the red outline. The smaller micro SIM (shown by the white outline) can be supported also using the adaptor supplied with the USIM card. 6 1. Installing the IPWireless LTE Connection Manager The first time the IPWireless LTE USB Modem is connected to your computer it will automatically install the required drivers and application software. On subsequent connections this is not carried out. Connect the IPWireless LTE USB Modem to a USB port on your PC. If you don’t know where the USB port is, just look for the USB port symbol. If AutoPlay is enabled then the folder will automatically appear. 7 Double click on Install to start the installation process If autoplay is not enabled then you need to navigate to the drive manually in Windows explorer. Click on the Start button and then My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista and Windows 7). Then double click on the drive named "IPWireless LTE USB Modem" and then double click on install 8 Depending on your operating system and/or system settings you may be prompted by User Account Control. Click Yes to continue the installation 9 Click Next to continue the installation Click Next to agree to the license agreement 10 Choose an alternative installation folder or click Install to use the default The setup program will take a few minutes to install The installation is now complete, click on Finish to exit. The IPWireless LTE Connection Manager will now start and the IPWireless LTE USB Modem drivers will be installed 11 2. IPWireless LTE Connection Manager The IPWireless LTE Connection Manager can be started by clicking the shortcut on the desktop. Detailed description of application functions is located in the help file that is available when you click the button: 12 Controls Connect / Disconnect Button Click the button to connect or disconnect the LTE Internet connection Main Window Display the main window. Status messages are displayed in the application area in the center of the main window. Tools Display the tools window. Help View the help files Minimize Minimize the IPWireless LTE Connection Manager to the Windows task bar. When minimized, the IPWireless LTE Connection Manager is still running and any internet connection is maintained. The IPWireless LTE Connection Manager can be displayed by double clicking the Windows task bar icon. 13 Close Close the IPWireless LTE Connection Manager. The IPWireless LTE Connection Manager is closed but the internet connection is maintained. The IPWireless LTE Connection Manager can be re‐opened to establish a new internet connection. 14 Uninstalling To uninstall the IPWireless LTE Connection Manager select: Start > IPWireless LTE USB Modem > Uninstall 15 13 Click Remove to uninstall the software. Click Finish to complete the uninstallation. 16 3.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals The following information includes important safety guidelines regarding exposure to radio frequency (RF) signals and the use of electronic devices. Your modem is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out RF signals. The USB Stick Modem has been evaluated against the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits defined by the FCC for devices of this type. The highest reported SAR value complies with the 1.6W/kg averaged over 1g limit. This USB modem is approved for use in normal size laptop computers only (typically with 12 inch or larger display screens). To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, this modem should not be used in configurations that cannot maintain a distance of at least 5mm (approximately 0.2 inch) from users and bystanders. In configurations where the 5mm cannot be maintained consult your service provider for advice. Examples where this may occur are certain small laptops and tablet computers or configurations where the USB connectors on the host computer are unable to provide or ensure the necessary separation between the modem and its users or bystanders to satisfy the RF exposure compliance requirements. If you use the modem in accordance with these guidelines, the level of RF exposure will fall within the guidelines and the standards previously identified. 1 The modem can be used with the remote antenna accessory, the remote antenna accessory has been evaluated against the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limit and complies with the 1.6W/kg averaged over 1g limit. Ensure a separation distance of at least 10mm is maintained between the remote antenna accessory and the user and bystanders. The maximum gain of the remote antenna must not exceed 1.7dBi (‐0.45dBd), operating the modem with an antenna gain exceeding this limit may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. IPW‐2741 Iss.3 2

Remote Antenna for LTE Modem INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 2 General Remarks In order to improve the data transfer performance, the LTE modem is designed to with the remote antenna. The antenna features a magnetic base that allows you to mount it on a metal surface e.g. a window sill. You can also screw the antenna on the wall either inside or outside. The antenna is equipped with a 3m cable terminated in suitable RF connectors for connecting the remote antenna to the modem. Specifications Frequency Range 690 –750MHz Gain max. 1.7dBi Polarisation Linear, +/‐45 o Power Input max. 4W Temperature Range‐20 o C to +55 o C Cable Length 3m Mounting the Antenna Before you connect the antenna to the modem you should assemble the antenna elements to the base unit. Gently tighten the antenna elements to the base unit. After attaching the antenna elements align them to so they angled at 45 degrees relative to the antenna base. 3 Installation on the Wall • Install screws spaced to match the locating lugs in the rear of the antenna, ensure the screw heads protrude approximately 1.5mm above the surface of the wall. • Located antenna on the on the screws as shown below. 4 Connecting to the Antenna Port of the Modem • Before connecting the remote antenna, move the slider on the bottom of the modem to reveal the antenna connectors. Ensure the sliders is fully open. • Connect the remote antenna connectors to the modem as shown below. • Both cables from the remote antenna must be connected to the modem. Antenna Slider
