SIM card installation
- Power off the device
 - Remove the screw from the SIM/PROG tray-cover
 - Insert a SIM removal tool into the cover popping hole to pop the tray-cover
 - Place the SIM into the tray
 - Mind the SIM tray orientation. You will need to turn the device upside down to keep the SIM from falling off the tray. Carefully push the tray cover back in
 - Close the SIM/PROG cover screw (optional)
 - Restart the device
 
Headless Quick Setup
In case a monitor is not available, IOT-GATE-RPI4 can be used with a host PC console terminal.
- Use standard USB-to-micro USB cable to connect host PC and IOT-GATE-RPI4.
 
- Plug micro USB end to IOT-GATE-RPI4's micro-USB debug console connector
 - Plug USB end to host's USB port
 
- On your host PC, start a terminal emulation program (e.g.minicom on a Linux host) with the following serial port settings:
 
| Baud Rate | Data Bits | Stop Bits | Flow Control | 
| 115200 | 8 | NONE | NONE | 
- Plug the power supply unit into an AC outlet. IOT-GATE-RPI4 will turn on and boot into Linux.
 - Use "pi" as a username and "raspberry" as a password as initial Linux account credentials.
