ICR-2041 1.7 Mounting Recommendations The router can be placed: • on a flat surface, • on a wall using the wall mounting clip (see Chapter 1.8), • on a DIN rail EN 60715 with the metal DIN rail clip (see Chapter 1.9) For most applications with a built-in router within a switchboard, it is possible to recognize two kinds of environments: • A non-public, industry environment of low voltage with high interference, • a public environment of low voltage and without high interference.
ICR-2041 1.8 Wall Mounting The wall mounting clip is supplied with the router as standard accessories. The router can be screwed to a wall (or another surface) using the wall mounting clip. There are two wholes on the clip with a diameter of 4 millimeters. For detailed information about the mounting dimensions see Figure 7 in Chapter 1.6. When mounting the wall mounting clip, tighten the screws with max. torque of 0.4 Nm.
ICR-2041 1.9 DIN Rail Mounting The DIN rail clip is not supplied with the router as standard accessories, but it can be ordered by the order code BB-DIN-ICR32. The DIN rail clip is suitable for a DIN rail according to EN 60715 standard only. The default position of the clip is shown in Figure 11. When mounting the DIN rail clip, tighten the screws with max. torque of 0.4 Nm.
ICR-2041 1.10 Product Labels An example of the product labels, with all the information printed on it, is in the figure below.
ICR-2041 2. Hardware Functionality See Chapter 1.3 for the product hardware overwiew. Table 1 lists a short description of the hardware, including the links to the chapters with a detailed description. 2.1 SIM Card Slot Slot for one SIM card is located on the router under a metal cover. If you intend to use this device to communicate over a cellular network, please place an activated data-provisioned SIM card into the SIM card reader.
ICR-2041 2.2 Antennas Connect cellular antennas to the router to main (ANT) and diversity (DIV) SMA connectors on the front panel. Connect WiFi antenna to the WiFi SMA connector on the side of the router. Only run the router with a cellular antenna connected to the main antenna connector, as the energy from the transmission is effectively reflected by the open end and can damage the equipment. Recommended tightening moment for screwing the antenna to the SMA connectors is 0.9 Nm.
ICR-2041 2.4 Power Supply The pins of power supply are physically connected to the 6-pin terminal block panel socket located on the left panel. The connection of power supply is shown in Figure 16 and described in Table 5.
ICR-2041 2.5 I/O Port Interfaces The maximum length of wires connected to the I/O ports is 3 meters to meet the EMC immunity conditions. The pins of I/O interface are physically connected to the 6-pin terminal block panel socket located on the left panel. The pinout of one binary input and one binary output is shown in Figure 18 and described in Table 6.
ICR-2041 2.6 LED Status Indication There are LED indicators on the front panel of the router to provide router status information. Moreover, ETH connector, has two additional LEDs providing information about the port status. Caption Color State Description PWR Green Green Green On Blinking Fast blinking The router is booting up. The router booted up and is ready. The router firmware is being updated. USR Green — The function of this LED is user-defined.
ICR-2041 2.7 Reset Functions Consider creating a router configuration backup before performing the router’s factory reset. The RST button can be used in three different scenarios: • Reset: Hold the RST button for less than 4 seconds; the router will reboot, applying its customized configuration. The router reset can be initiated by clicking the Reboot menu item in the router web GUI.
ICR-2041 3. First Use 3.1 Accessories Connection Before putting the router into operation, it is necessary to connect all the components required to run your applications; see Chapter 1.3 for the hardware overview. Remember to insert a SIM card for the cellular connection; see Chapter 2.1. Do not run the router without antenna connected to the main antenna connector as the energy from the transmission is effectively reflected by the open end and can damage the equipment. 3.

ICR-2041 Appendix A: Troubleshooting If you cannot connect to the router from your PC, your network card may be configured in such a way that it is not possible to connect to the router. Take one or more of the following steps in order to solve the problem: • Make sure your PC’s network card is configured to obtain the IP address form the DHCP server (by default the DHCP server is running in the router). • Connect the router to the PC via Switch.
ICR-2041 ✍ I can’t access my Web server placed behind the router over NAT. • The remote HTTP access to the router has to be disabled on "NAT Configuration" page in the router. Also enable "Send all remaining incoming packets to default server" feature and fill in the IP address of your Web server. On the Web server, the default gateway has to be the IP address of the router. ✍ DynDNS doesn’t work. • With private APN this will not work.
ICR-2041 ✍ Serial communication is not working. • Verify that the router model supports serial communications. Also verify the serial communication settings. To do so, open the router’s configuration menu via the web browser, select the appropriate "Expansion Port" from "Configuration" part of the menu and verify the settings. ✍ Is the router Cisco compatible? Can I use the Cisco configuration? • No, the Firmware in the router (Conel OS) is based on Linux with BusyBox.
