Connecting

• If the intent is to use GPS, an external antenna is required (see "16351262GPS usage").
• Choose your powering solution (see "16351262Powering").
• Connect your Internet cable to the Ethernet port.
• Set your computer IP configuration to automatic (DHCP).
• Connect your direct input power jack if not using PoE, to start up the device.
• The device will boot up and the Wireless network will be available for connecting.
• Open network connections on your PC, mobile phone, or other device and search for MikroTik wireless network and connect to it.
• Once connected to the wireless network, open https://192.168.88.1 in your web browser to start configuration, since there is no password by default, you will be logged in automatically. The configuration also can be done using the mobile app (see "16351262MikroTik mobile app"), and WinBox configuration tool https://mt.lv/winbox.
• We recommend clicking the "Check for updates" button and updating your RouterOS software to the latest version to ensure the best performance and stability.

• Built-in 2 GHz wireless access point module, AP/station/bridge/p2p modes are supported. Onboard PIF antennas built-in. Antenna gain1.5 dBi.
• miniPCIe slot and two SIM slots (can't be used without a modem installed, can't be used both at the same time) to be used with a 3G/4G/LTE modem. Onboard antennas available, but openings for external antennas are provided on the case.
• Built-in GPS module - uFL connector provided for an external antenna. To enable, set the port to serial0 (this disables the DB9 port on the unit). Supports ( GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo).
• One 10/100 Ethernet port, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X). Either straight or crossover cable can be used for connecting to other network devices. The Ethernet port accepts 12-57 V DC powering from a passive PoE injector.
• One DB9 RS232 serial port for serial console access. Configured as 115200 bit/s, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity. Can't be used if built-in GPS is enabled on serial0.
• One microUSB 2.0 port for powering only.

RouterOS includes many configuration options in addition to what is described in this document. We suggest starting here to get yourself accustomed to the possibilities: https://mt.lv/help. In case IP connection is not available, the Winbox tool (https://mt.lv/winbox) can be used to connect to the MAC address of the device from the LAN side (all access is blocked from the internet port by default).
For recovery purposes, it is possible to boot the device from the network, see section 16351262 Buttons and jumpers.

miniPCIe slot usage

The device is equipped with a miniPCIe slot and a factory-installed LTE modem. Two SIM slots are provided for use together with a miniPCIe modem. The SIM slot is not used separately.

• Use a wrist grounding strap when unpacking and working with electrical components to avoid electrical discharge (ESD) damage.
• Open the front cover by unscrewing one screw with the Philips PH2 screwdriver.
• Remove four screws on the bottom of the case and lift off the top part of the case. You will see the antenna attached to it.
• Locate the miniPCIe card on the PCB and remove two screws.
• Attach provided a thick thermal pad to the card, and install the card into miniPCIe slot so that the thermal pad is between PCB and card.
• The secure card in place using previously removed two screws.
• Attach the grey uFL connector to the MAIN antenna connector of the modem, attach the black cable to the secondary (or AUX) connector.
• To use external antennas, attach antenna connectors and use a 6.5 mm drill bit to drill holes on the side of the unit. (see "16351262Mounting") description 4.
• Please see the picture bellow on how to place rubber seals for the best water protection.

...

Attach a thinner thermal pad to the top of the card.

• Reassembly in back order.

After you have reinserted the device into the case and secured it with the screws that were removed earlier, slide in the SIM cards from your mobile operator into the SIM slots, with the chips facing as shown on the port label. The slot accepts miniSIM (2FF). Close the black latch for SIM cards, to secure them in the slots.

In order to use GPS, an external antenna is needed to connect.
We recommend to use the "ACGPSA" - can be obtained separately. ACGPSA is a standalone active GPS antenna, that works in the 1575.4 MHz spectrum. Antenna size is 46.5 mm x 26.5 mm x 12.5 mm with an IP67 rating and includes an internal magnet and double-sided tape, so it can easily be attached to various surfaces. It has a long 5m cable with an SMA connector, to be connected to LtAP mini via the ACSMAUFL pigtail (not included, product code ACSMAUFL)
