Installation and User Guide
Model No: EVCC-DP-101-SP50
Setup - Connect via Cellular
If the unit is equipped with a cellular modem, you'll need to install a compatible 3G/4G SIM card and activate it to connect the EVCC to the Internet. The cellular modem included with the EVCC supports all major US cellular carriers.
Instructions on how to install the SIM card are described in the following section.
There are some requirements to connect the EVCC to the Internet via cellular:
- You'll need a Standard Size SIM card from a major US cellular carrier such as Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T, or Verizon or a sub-carrier such as Tracfone (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint), Mint-Mobile (T-Mobile and AT&T), Cricket, etc.
- The EVCC will use only the data portion of the carrier's service plan. The recommended data plan is 500mb/mo or more.
- You will need the IMEI number to activate the SIM card. This is provided on the top of the EVCC cellular modem (you will see it after opening the EVCC front cover).
- Be sure the carrier has a strong signal in the area you intend to install the EVCC. Most carrier websites have a tool that allows you to test if the service is available in your area.
Note: Cellular carrier fees are independent of any other AmpedUp! Networks subscription fees.
