5. Configure RV50(X)
1. Download the collection of RV50(X) configuration
templates from www.campbellsci.com/downloads
and run the executable downloaded.
2. Connect the Cellular antenna.
3. Connect the Diversity antenna, if used. Use of a diversity
antenna is recommended, it can improve system
performance. It is required in 4G networks, but not 2G
or 3G. Note: If a Diversity antenna is not used on a 2G or
3G cellular network, use ACEmanager to disable
WAN/Cellular > Network Credentials > RX Diversity.
4. Connect the power cable wires to a power supply.

5. Connect the power cable to the RV50(X) DC Power
input. When the RV50(X) is properly set up and
powered, the status LEDs will turn on. The RV50(X) will
begin the activation/provisioning process and attempt
to connect to the mobile network. This process typically
takes 5 to 10 minutes. A successful connection is
indicated by a solid green or solid amber Network LED.
NOTE:
If Campbell Scientific did not provision the RV50(X)
or it does not automatically connect to the network,
you may need to to confirm or enter your APN
information. Follow steps 6 through 8 to
WAN/Cellular > SIM Slot 1 Configuration >
Network Credentials > User Entered APN.
6. Connect your Windows® computer to the RV50(X)
using the supplied Ethernet cable.
7. Launch a web browser, and enter
https://192.168.13.31:9443 into the address bar. The
ACEmanager login screen should appear in your
browser.
NOTE:
RV50(X)s running OS version 4.13 and older had
both HTTP port 9191 and HTTPS port 9443 enabled
by default. When using HTTP (not HTTPS) with these
older OS versions, enter the IP address using port
number 9441, for example,
http://192.168.13.31:9441.
8. Look for a sticker on the bottom of your modem with
the manufacturer-generated default password. Log in
using User Name = user and that Password. If there is
no sticker try 12345 for the password. Make note of the
password used so it can be easily referenced when off
site. Remote access to the modem interface will require
the password.
TIP:
We strongly recommend changing the default
password to prevent unauthorized access and the
potential of malware infection. The password can
be changed from the Admin tab.
WARNING:
Failure to set a strong password in the RV50(X) may
result in misuse of the modem by malware or
hackers. Significant data overage charges may
apply.
