SIM-Card Bay Interface (only QC220 & QC24X)
SAFEmine devices QC220 and QC24X require SIM cards to connect to the local cellular network for
data transmission. The amount of data transmission can vary depending on the configurations but a
data plan of XXX MB per Month has given good results.
For satisfactory online performance of the SAFEmine system the cellphone network service must
cover the area of use with either GPRS (2.0G) or EDGE (2.5G). The CAS system does not support
higher generation protocols such as UMTS, HSDPA or LTE.
The SIM-card bay receives a standard size SIM-card. The Interface is spring loaded and the card
has to be pushed in against the spring until a “click” can be heard. Use a thin nonmetallic piece to
help push the card into its place.
QC220 and QC24X MainUnits are delivered with a transparent adhesive cover sticker to close the
SIM-card bay and protect it against dust. Always install the cover sticker on the SIM-card slot to
prevent voiding warranty.
Operation of the CAS MainUnit without the SIM card cover sticker voids warranty!
