==2023.04.12: SIM usage recommendation update==
We would like to inform you about the SIM usage recommendation change - due to SIM card market tendencies (Standard size SIM cards being made to split to 3 parts) [https://wiki.teltonika-gps.com/view/FMC640_First_Start#How_to_insert_SIM_card_and_connect_the_battery FMC640 First Start]

| style="text-align: left; background: white;" |Detailed description
| colspan="2" style="text-align: left; background: white;" |New paragraph about SIM usage is added to product First Start description. <br>
Previously SIM insertion recommendation was only described in schematics - <b>SIM1 shown in lower slot, SIM2 in upper slot.</b> [[File:Fmb640-cover-3.png|center|400px]]
<br>
Due to SIM market tendencies the documentation was updated to more clearly state SIM1 and SIM2 usage recommendations:
<br>
[[File:SIM_3in1.png|left|230px]] <b>FMX6 devices use Standard size SIM cards for SIM1 and SIM2. Currently most of the SIM cards provided by operators can be disassembled into 3 parts - Standard/Micro/Nano. Depending on the SIM card construction - during device usage in harsh conditions, SIM assembly might come apart which causes instability when connecting to operator.<br>
To avoid such risk:<br>
1) If possible - ask operator for Standard SIM card with solid construction (not pre-cut to 3 parts)<br>
2) Do not use SIM cards that were previously disassembled (SIM was taken apart previously)<br>
3) If you plan to use only one SIM card - insert it into SIM1 slot (lower slot) - this ensures greater pressure on SIM contacts as the contact bed is pushed by PCB.<br>
When 2 SIM cards are used simultaneously risk is mitigated as well - when SIM1 is inserted, a greater pressure is applied for SIM2, so SIM parts are harder to come lose </b><br>

|-
| style="text-align: left; background: white;" |Suggested implementation plan
| colspan="2" style="text-align: left; background: white;" | If you used one SIM card and it's placed in SIM1 slot (lower) - <b>no implementation plan needed.</b><br>
If you used 2 SIM cards - SIM1 in lower slot, SIM2 in upper slot - <b>no implementation plan needed.</b><br>
If you used eSIM - <b>no implementation plan needed.</b><br>
If you used one SIM card and it is inserted into SIM2 slot (upper) - <b>to mitigate risk of bad operator connectivity due to SIM construction - for future installations - when only 1 SIM card is used - insert it into SIM1 slot (lower) </b>
Additionally: '''If possible - ask operator for Standard SIM card with solid construction (not pre-cut to 3 parts)'''
