appropriate cellular service, you can call up your monitoring site

 

 

to configure the flow module settings and retrieve flow data.

 

 

Detailed operating instructions are available in Flowlink in a

 

 

Windows Help format, and in the flow module’s Installation and

 

 

Operation Guide.

Using GSM technology, and with the appropriate SIM card, the

 

 

2103G is capable of digital text messaging to up to 5 text capable

module. The 2103G is compatible with Isco’s 2150 Area Velocity

flow module, 2110 Ultrasonic flow module, 2101 Field Wizard, and 2102 Wireless module.

4.2 SIM Card

The data transmission capabilities of the 2103G are dependent upon the type of service plan you have through your cell phone service provider. The service parameters, or provider, can be changed by simply replacing the Subscriber Information Module (SIM) card in your 2103G. Check with your service provider to verify what data transmission technologies are available for your use.

To access the SIM card slot, turn the 2103G module over. On the bottom is a round metal cover that, when unscrewed, provides access to the card (Figure 4-1).
