Configure data logger

  1. Connect the cellular antenna, if it is not already connected. When using a MIMO antenna with multiple cellular connections, connect the primary cable to Cellular and the secondary to Diversity. If the cables are not marked in this way, they can be connected to either antenna port.

  2. Connect to your data logger by using Device Configuration Utility.

  3. On the Datalogger tab, change the data logger PakBus Address and PakBus/TCP Password to match the values entered in the Konect PakBus Router setup. The PakBus/TCP Password will make the data logger authenticate any incoming or outgoing PakBus/TCP connection.

  4. On the Network Services tab in the PakBus/TCP Client field, enter the DNS address and Port number noted during the Konect PakBus Router setup.

  5. On the PPP tab, set Config/Port Used to CS I/O SDC8 or RS-232, depending on how you are connected to the data logger.

  6. (Optional) On the PPP tab, set User Name and Password if required by your cellular carrier (usually outside of the United Sates).

  7. (Optional) If your cellular carrier requires user name and password authentication, on the Settings Editor > Cellular tab, set PDP Authentication Type, PPP Authentication Username and PPP Authentication Password.

  8. Verify the Modem Dial String setting is blank.

  9. If connecting through RS-232, on the Comport Settings tab, set RS232 BaudRate to 115200 Fixed.

  10. Click Apply.

  11. Shut down Device Configuration Utility and start it again. This will activate the Cellular tab needed for the next step.

  12. On the Cellular tab, enter the APN provided by your cellular provider. For standard Telstra SIMs, this will be telstra.internet.
