Do you need a PIN? (BGAN)
To avoid having to enter a PIN at startup, you have two options:
•Enable Auto SIM PIN validation. See Auto SIM PIN validation on page 79.
With this option enabled, the EXPLORER 540 automatically sends the PIN to the SIM card
at every startup. Note that if you later want change the SIM card, you should first disable
Auto SIM PIN validation.
• Disable the use of a SIM PIN. See To enable or disable the use of a SIM PIN on page 79.
When the SIM PIN is disabled, the SIM can be used by other terminals without a PIN.
If you are using a SIM PIN in your system, you can enter the SIM PIN from the built-in web
interface. For details, see To enter the SIM PIN on page 91.
To access the web interface
You can use the built-in web interface for configuration and operation of the EXPLORER 540.
To access the web interface, do as follows:
1. Start up the terminal.
2. Connect your computer to the LAN interface of the terminal. If the terminal is already
installed in your system, you must connect via a router or switch, because there is only one
LAN interface on the EXPLORER 540.
3. Open your browser and enter the IP address of the terminal in the address bar. The default
IP address of the terminal is 192.168.0.1.
4. Log in as user or administrator. Default user names and passwords are:
• user: User name = user, password = <serial number of the EXPLORER 540>
• administrator: User name = administrator, password = admin
If the terminal is not yet installed, it will automatically start the installation procedure and the
web interface will show the progress. Otherwise the web interface will show the dashboard.
For more information on the web interface, see The web interface on page 48.
If your EXPLORER 540 is used in an unmanned M2M system, you will not be able
to enter a PIN code. In this case we strongly recommend enabling Auto SIM
PIN validation in the web interface before using the system. See below.
If you are asked for a PIN in the web interface and you select Cancel, you cannot
communicate on the network, but you can access all settings.
Remember to change the administrator password! See To change the
administrator password on page 77.
