Installing a SIM card
You need a SIM card to receive automatic e-mail and/or FTP reports from your microSpider2.
Halytech can provide fully functioning SIM cards for you.
If you want to source your own SIM card, contact your preferred mobile phone carrier and ensure that the
SIM card is provisioned with a plan enabling internet access.
microSpider2 units are fitted with two different type of SIM card holders. They are easily distinguishable by
the colour of their cover - either black of silver. Please follow the instructions relevant to the type of SIM card
holder installed in your unit.
IMPORTANT:
Before installing a SIM card into a microSpider2, put it in a standard mobile phone and disable
its PIN, if it has one.
