Chapter 1 – Product Overview
This User Guide describes the MultiModem® rCell intelligent wireless routers with an Ethernet II interface. You can configure the MultiModem rCell Router for one of three connectivity modes: always-on, wake-up on ring, or dial-on demand.
The always-on network connection automatically establishes a wireless data connection and allows for around the clock surveillance, monitoring or real time data acquisition of any remote Ethernet device such as a Web camera.
If the data link is dropped due to poor reception or a complete loss of service, this feature automatically reestablishes the data link.
The wake-up on ring configuration allows the router to “wake up” and initiate a connection when it detects an incoming ring. For security reasons, you can setup the router to wake up based on a particular caller ID number.
This configuration is ideal for reducing the costs associated with the modem being online and available 24/7.
When configured for dial-on demand, the router only accesses the Internet when data is present. This configuration is ideal for sharing Internet access among networked computers.

Handling Precautions
To avoid damage due to the accumulation of static charge, use proper precautions when handling any cellular device. Although input protection circuitry has been incorporated into the devices to minimize the effect of static build-up, use proper precautions to avoid exposure to electronic discharge during handling and mounting the device.
Caution:
Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) between the transmitter’s antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The modem is not designed for or intended to be used in portable applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the user’s body.

Chapter 1 – Product Overview
RF Interference Issues
Follow any special regulations regarding the use of radio equipment due to the possibility of radio frequency (RF) interference. Follow the safety advice given below.
●
Switch OFF your wireless device when in an aircraft. Using cellular telephones in an aircraft may endanger aircraft operation, disrupt the cellular network, and is illegal. Failing to observe this restriction may lead to suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, legal action, or both.
●
Switch OFF your wireless device when around gasoline or diesel-fuel pumps and before filling your vehicle with fuel.
●
Switch OFF your wireless device in hospitals and any other place where medical equipment may be in use.
●
Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.
●
Operating your wireless device close to other electronic equipment may cause interference if the equipment is inadequately protected. Observe any warning signs and manufacturers’ recommendations.
Interference with Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices
Potential interference
Radiofrequency energy (RF) from cellular devices can interact with some electronic devices. This is electromagnetic interference (EMI). The FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure EMI of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from cellular devices. This test method is part of the Association for the
Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) standard. This standard allows manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from cellular device EMI.
The FDA continues to monitor cellular devices for interactions with other medical devices. If harmful interference occurs, the FDA will assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
Precautions for pacemaker wearers
If EMI occurs, it could affect a pacemaker in one of three ways:
●
Stop the pacemaker from delivering the stimulating pulses that regulate the heart's rhythm.
●
Cause the pacemaker to deliver the pulses irregularly.
●
Cause the pacemaker to ignore the heart's own rhythm and deliver pulses at a fixed rate.
Based on current research, cellular devices do not pose a significant health problem for most pacemaker wearers.
However, people with pacemakers may want to take simple precautions to be sure that their device doesn't cause a problem.
●
Keep the device on the opposite the side of the body from the pacemaker to add extra distance between the pacemaker and the device.
●
Avoid placing a turned-on device next to the pacemaker (for example, don’t carry the device in a shirt or jacket pocket directly over the pacemaker).
MultiModem rCell User Guide 9
Chapter 1 – Product Overview
Vehicle Safety

PPP, PPP Configuration Parameters
NAT Configuration Group
NAT:
Enable or disable NAT (Network Address Translation). The default is Enable.
Note:
For routing to take effect, enable then save the configuration.
Enabling NAT
Your LAN can use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic. The router with NAT does the simple IP routing between the LAN interface and the WAN interface. NAT hides the LAN address behind a single IP address on the wireless side.
Your internal addresses are shielded from the public Internet.
MultiModem rCell User Guide 49
Chapter 3 – Using the Web Management Software
Disabling NAT
The router functions without performing any address translation on the packets passing through it.
Masquerading of packets originating from the LAN is disabled.
Address translation of packets arriving from the WAN is also disabled.
Any DNAT Configuration previously setup in the DNAT Configuration screen is disabled. This prevents the user from adding any DNAT rules, which if allowed defeat the purpose of enabling Routing.
PPP General Group
PPP:
Enable or disable PPP. The default is Disable. When enabled, the unit functions as a router. PPP must be disabled to access the integrated cellular modem directly using telnet port 5000. If PPP is enabled, you cannot access the integrated cellular modem.
Dial-on-Demand:
Enable or disable Dial-on-Demand. The default is Disable. If you disable it, the router always stays connected unless the Idle Time Out expires. When Dial-on-Demand is enabled, use the ‘Wakeup on Call’ settings under the PPP menu to configure the settings for re-establishment of the connection.
Idle Time Out:
Set the amount of idle time that passes before the router timeouts. The default is 180 seconds. If the time expires, the PPP connection to the Internet disconnects. Any IP packets from the LAN side or IP traffic from the wireless side resets this timer and prevents the connection from dropping.
Connect Time Out:
Set the number of seconds to wait for a connection while in receive mode before timing out.
Dialing Max Retries: Enter the number of dialing retries allowed. The default is zero, which means an infinite number is allowed. Range 0 to 100.

PPP, Wakeup-on-Call Parameters
The Wakeup-on-Call feature allows the router to wake up and initiate a connection when there is an incoming call or LAN activity. . The Wakeup-on-Call feature reduces the cost incurred when a router is online and available 24/7.
If you desire some security with this feature, you can set up the router to wake up based on Caller ID or SMS instead of allowing all incoming calls to wake up the router. Dial-on-Demand in the IP Setup menu must be enabled for wakeup-on-call features to go into effect.
Note:
When provisioning this feature, you must allow incoming calls, SMS capability, and caller-id.
Wakeup-on-Call Configuration Group
Wakeup on Call:
Enable or disable the Wakeup-on-Call feature. The default is Disable. Wakeup on Call occurs when a ring or caller ID is detected. This triggers the router to reconnect after the ‘Time Delay’ expires.
Time Delay:
Enter the amount of time that you want to pass between the reception of a call and the initiation of the Wakeup-on-Call connection. A time delay is needed to make sure that the incoming call has ended before the connection is initiated. The default is 10 seconds.
Dial-on-Demand from LAN:
The default is disable. When enabled, the router reconnects when it sees IP traffic on the LAN is needed to route. If this feature is disabled, Dial-on-Demand initiates a PPP connection to the Internet only from the WAN, not from the LAN.

IPSec
The IPSec (IP Security) protocol suite, based on modern cryptographic technologies, provides security services like encryption and authentication at the IP network layer. It secures the whole network traffic providing guaranteed security for any application using the network.
You can use IPSec to create private secured tunnels between two hosts, two security gateways, or a host and a security gateway. Up to three tunnels can be active at any given time. You can save more than three active tunnels, but they are not active.
IPSec provides encryption and authentication services at the IP level of the protocol stack. IPSec can protect any traffic carried over IP.
Authentication and Encryption Overview
IPSec provides the following services:
●
Authentication only
●
Encryption only
To transmit and receive data securely over an unprotected network:
1.
Select the type of IPSec service—authentication or encryption—required for the connection.
2.
Establish a secure connection by a key exchange process, using one of the following:
●
●
Manual Keying where the authentication and encryption keys are provided manually on both sides of the connection.
Auto Keying using IKEv2 Protocol where the authentication and encryption keys are generated on either side of the connection and exchanged by different methods.
3.
Transfer data using the connection.

Serial Port, Client Settings Parameters
The TCP/UDP client feature enables the router to act as a proxy TCP/UDP client to the serial terminal connected to the DE9, RS232 port on the router thus facilitating the serial terminal to access any TCP/UDP server on the
LAN/WAN. Once the session, serial terminal to TCP/UDP server, is opened successfully, it allows two-way traffic between the serial device and the remote server.
Initial connection setup for the TCP/UDP client is as follows:

REACH Statement
Registration of Substances:
After careful review of the legislation and specifically the definition of an “article” as defined in EC Regulation 1907/2006,
Title II, Chapter 1, Article 7.1(a)(b), it is our current view Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. products would be considered as “articles”.
In light of the definition in § 7.1(b) which requires registration of an article only if it contains a regulated substance that “is intended to be released under normal or reasonable foreseeable conditions of use,” our analysis is that Multi-Tech Systems,

Frequently asked questions
The always-on network connection automatically establishes a wireless data connection. To configure this mode, you will need to access the web management software and set the desired parameters.
The wake-up on ring mode allows the router to initiate a connection when it detects an incoming ring. This feature can help reduce costs associated with the modem being online continuously.
When configured for dial-on demand, the router only accesses the Internet when data is present. This is ideal for sharing internet access among networked computers.
Yes, this router supports IPSec for secure VPN connections. Refer to the "IPSec" section in the web management software for configuration instructions.
You can change the default password by logging into the web management software and navigating to the "HTTP Configuration" section. From there you can update the username and password.
