Wiring scheme
Set up your device
How to insert the Micro-SIM card and connect the battery
- Unscrew 4 screws counterclockwise that are located on the bottom of the device.
- Remove the cover.
- Insert SIM card as shown with PIN request disabled or read Security info on how to enter it later in Amber Configurator. Make sure that the SIM card cut-off corner is pointing forward to the slot. SIM slot 1 is closer to PCB, SIM slot 2 is the upper one.
- Connect the battery as shown to a device.
- After configuration, see “PC Connection (Windows)”, attach device cover back
- Screw-in all screws. The device is ready to be mounted.

Mounting recommendations
-
Connecting wires
1. Wires should be connected while the module is not plugged in.
2. Wires should be fastened to the other wires or non-moving parts. Try to avoid heat-emitting and moving objects near the wires.
3. The connections should not be seen very clearly. If factory isolation was removed while connecting
wires, it should be applied again.
4. If the wires are placed on the exterior or in places where they can be damaged or exposed to heat,
humidity, dirt, etc., additional isolation should be applied.
5. Wires cannot be connected to the board computers or control units. -
Connecting power source
1. Be sure that after the car computer falls asleep, power is still available on the chosen wire. Depending on the car, this may happen in a 5 to 30 minutes period.
2. When the module is connected, measure the voltage again to make sure it did not decrease.
3. It is recommended to connect to the main power cable in the fuse box.
4. 3 A, 125 V external fuse
PAY ATTENTION! Connecting the power supply must be carried out at a very low
impedance point of the onboard vehicle network.
Connecting the GND at an arbitrary point to the mass of the car is
unacceptable, as static and dynamic potentials on the line GND will be
unpredictable, which can lead to unstable AGT400-M operation and even its
failure.
