To activate your device, follow the instructions below:

2. Plug the power cable to the power connector on the back panel of the AirLink

GX400 - See Connecting to Power on page 27.

3. Connect your computer to the AirLink GX400 with an ethernet, serial or USB

cable - See Connecting to a Computer or Other Device on page 29.

Wait 60-90 seconds for the AirLink GX400 to initialize and go on the air.

Automatic Activation (OTASP)

One of the special features of your AirLink GX400 for Verizon is the ability to

activate itself automatically. When you first power on the AirLink GX400, it will

check to see if it has been activated with account data. If it finds that it has not yet

been activated, the AirLink GX400 will attempt to retrieve the account data from

the Verizon network using Over-the-Air Service Provisioning (OTASP).

Note: You must have a Verizon account before you attempt automatic activation. If you do

not have a Verizon account for your AirLink GX400, it will not succeed at activation.

Updating AirLink GX400 Firmware

For installing the latest firmware version (.exe file), you can go to the Sierra

Wireless website: http://www.sierrawireless.com/support.

Confirming IP Address

Check the IP Address in your Local Area Connection window. The IP Address in

the window in Figure 3 is for a USB/net connection.
