Provision a mobile device
Mobile device provisioning is needed to properly configure the Digi device with the required
information used to access the mobile network. The device must be provisioned before you will be
able to create a data connection to the mobile network.The device only needs to be provisioned
once. This type of provisioning applies only to Digi devices that have a CDMA cellular module.
For Digi devices, provisioning is done through the Mobile Device Provisioning Wizard, which is
launched from the Mobile Configuration page.
Automatic versus manual provisioning
There are different types of provisioning methods depending upon your mobile provider. The
Mobile Device Provisioning Wizard will provide the appropriate choices based on the mobile
provider selected. Two main provisioning methods are:
Automatic Provisioning: Typically, an automatic provisioning process called IOTA (IP-
Based Over the Air) is used to provision the device. Note that automatic provisioning
requires the modem device to communicate over the mobile network and requires a
good signal to ensure proper provisioning.
Manual Provisioning: Alternatively, a manual provisioning method can be used to
manually specify the required fields needed to access the mobile network. The manual
provisioning method is an advanced configuration normally used only for custom
network access or providers.This method is not available for all mobile providers, and
will not be available in the Mobile Device Provisioning Wizard if your mobile provider
does not support it.
Launch the Mobile Device Provisioning Wizard
Below the Service Provider selection list is a line of text that states whether or not the device has
already been provisioned or needs to be provisioned. If a device has not yet been provisioned, the
Mobile Configuration page displays a message, as shown below. Click the Provision Device
button to launch the Mobile Device Provisioning Wizard. For example, here is how the Mobile
Settings page looks when a device has not yet been provisioned.
