•Do not expose the router to extreme ambient conditions. Protect the router against dust,

moisture, and high temperature.

•It is recommended that you do not use the router at petrol ﬁlling stations. We recommend

observing local restrictions concerning radio-based devices while working with explosive

material, such as petrol ﬁlling stations or in chemical plants.

Start Guide

First Use

Before applying power to the router, connect all the components you need for your appli-

cations.

Do not run the router without an antenna connected to the main antenna connector. The

energy from the transmission is effectively reﬂected by the open end and can damage

the equipment.

XR5i v2 routers are not equipped with a cellular module, which means that SIM card

readers and antenna connectors are not available on the router.

1. Antenna

Use an SMA connector to connect the antennas to the router; see the ﬁgure below. First,

connect the main antenna to the ANT connector. Next, connect the second diversity antenna

to the DIV connector to improve the quality and reliability of a wireless link.

2. SIM Card

The SIM card reader for one or two Mini SIM cards (2FF with size of 25.0 x 15.0 x 0.76 mm)

is located on the router’s front panel. The full version of the router contains two readers. 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. Insert your SIM card into the SIM1 or

SIM2 holder and push it to the reader, see the ﬁgure below. You can install two SIM cards

simultaneously to utilize the SIM card switching feature.

Disconnect the router from the power supply before handling the SIM card!

3. Power

The router requires an external DC power supply. The DC voltage required is between

+10 and +30 V DC. The router has built-in protection against reverse polarity without signaling.

Connect the power supply cable to the PWR connector on the router’s front panel (see the

ﬁgure below) and tighten the locking screws.

4. Ethernet

For an initial conﬁguration made in a web browser, connect a PC by an Ethernet cable to

the default LAN interface, use the ETH port; see the ﬁgure above. By default, this interface

has the following conﬁguration:

Connector Purpose Default Setting

ETH LAN port (default)

Connect your PC to this port to get the

router web interface.

DHCP Server

IP Address: 192.168.1.1

NetMask: 255.255.255.0

If the router is equipped with any expansion port, connect the appropriate cable to the port

PORT1 or PORT2. The pin assignments for expansion ports is described in manual for corre-

sponding expansion port.

Conﬁguration

1. Conﬁguring the Device Using the Web Browser

You can use a web browser running on your PC to access the router web interface. Here

you can perform router monitoring, conﬁguration, and administration. First, connect the PC to

the default LAN interface described in the Ethernet chapter. To get the router interface, enter

the https://192.168.1.1 address in a web browser. Please note that usage of the HTTPS

protocol for secure communication over the network is required.

There is just the root user account created on the router by default. See the product

label on the router for its default password1. Log in to the web interface by the root user

and his password. See the conﬁguration manual of the router for a detailed description and

examples of the router conﬁguration.

2. Conﬁguring the Device Using the SSH or Telnet

Device management can be done by accessing the device through the Secure Shell (SSH)

or the Telnet protocol. The default IP address of the device is 192.168.1.1. Standard TCP

ports are used, 22 for the SSH and 23 for the Telnet. Please note, that access is permitted for

users of the admin role only and that the Telnet protocol is disabled by default. For a detailed

description of SSH and Telnet conﬁguration, see the Conﬁguration Manual.

1If the label does not contain a unique password, use "root" string as the password.

2. Conﬁguration Settings via WebAccess/DMP

Your router has been pre-installed with the WebAccess/DMP client, which has activated

the connection to the WebAccess/DMP server by default. You can disable this connection on

the Welcome page when logging into the router’s web interface or on the (Customization ->

Router Apps -> WebAccess/DMP Client) conﬁguration page. For more information see the

conﬁguration manual of your router, chapter Basic Information -> WebAccess/DMP Conﬁgu-

ration.

The activated client periodically uploads router identiﬁers and conﬁguration to the Web-

Access/DMP server.

4. Restoring and Backing up the Router Conﬁguration

The default factory settings will replace the current conﬁguration if you reset the router.

Therefore, we recommend you back up the router conﬁguration before resetting the device.

Refer to the conﬁguration manual for more information.

You can restore the default router conﬁguration once the router boots up and the PWR

LED starts blinking. To do so, press the RST button on the router’s front panel for more than

4 seconds. After you press this button, all settings reset to the default values, and the router

will reboot.

After logging on to the device for the ﬁrst time, we strongly recommend changing the

default password due to security reasons. Simultaneously, you will gain access to all

functions of the router.

For security reasons, we highly recommend updating the router’s ﬁrmware to the latest

version regularly. Downgrading the ﬁrmware to an older version than the production

version or uploading ﬁrmware intended for a different device may cause the device’s

malfunction.
