FIGURE 1-1. Private dynamic IP provisioning report

Additionally, Campbell Scientific cellular modules configured
with a private dynamic IP address will have one sticker on the
module, as shown in the following figure. It will show the
module phone number and data plan. USE THIS GUIDE.

Campbell Scientific cellular modules configured with a public
static IP address will have two stickers on the module. One
sticker will show the module phone number and data plan. The
second sticker will show the static IP address. USE THE OTHER
GUIDE.

NOTE:
This Quick Deploy Guide is a general reference to give the
installer an overview of the steps required to make this
system operational. The Product Manual is the definitive
source for detailed installation instructions and
information.

For best results, update to the latest data logger
operating system and version of Device Configuration
Utility.

You should have received two Quick Deploy Guides with your
RV50(X) module. The one you follow will depend on whether
your module was configured with a private dynamic or public
static IP address.

The Provisioning Report received with your Cellular Data
Service shows whether the module was configured with a
private dynamic or public static IP address. See the following
figure for an example of a Campbell Scientific Provisioning
Report. Other cellular providers should provide similar
information.

USE THIS GUIDE if your module has a private dynamic IP
address.

2. Campbell Scientific cellular data service

Campbell Scientific can provide subscriptions to cellular
service through Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Vodafone, Telstra,
and over 600 other providers worldwide. When this cellular
service is purchased with the module, the module will come
pre-provisioned with the required SIM card and APN. If you
have already purchased the RV50(X), call Campbell Scientific
to set up service.

3. Install the SIM card

NOTE:
If you purchased cellular service from Campbell Scientific
with the module, it will come with the SIM (Subscriber
Identity Module) card already installed.

4.1 Get started

You will need the Konect PakBus Router redemption code that
came on a card with the RV50(X).

Open a web browser and go to www.konectgds.eu.

First-time users need to create a free account. After you submit
your information, you will receive two emails up to five minutes
apart. One email will contain a Passport ID and the other your
Password. If emails are not received, check your email junk
folder.

3. The next screen shows the assigned DNS address and
Port for the router. Enter a TCP Password and select a
unique PakBus Address for your data logger.

TIP:
Make note of this information; it will be required
for data logger configuration as well as LoggerNet
setup. Please note your DNS, Port, TCP Password
and PakBus address; you will need them later.
