What happens if my data use goes over the monthly allowance for my cellular data services plan size?
Each data plan has a monthly limit. Data use is logged each day. When more than one line of service has the same data plan, the data allotment is pooled for use by all lines on the same plan. If the modem data use exceeds the plan limit for a month, an email will be sent to notify the customer contact. When overage charges beyond the pool limit reach $50.00, customers will be notified and billed. Data overage charges are billed at the following rate: $1.00/MB or $0.10/MB for 250 MB+ domestic plans. For more information, see Cellular Data Service Plan Terms and Conditions and Customer Agreement.

Requests for cellular data service for cellular-enabled devices not purchased from Campbell Scientific must be reviewed and approved to ensure they meet the requirements for use on the cellular data network.

Campbell Scientific cellular data plans provide a private dynamic IP address. With a dynamic IP address, a data logger can connect to the Internet and push data or emails to a programmed location. However, because the modem is using a dynamic (changing) address within a private network, you cannot initiate communication with the data logger without the help of a routing service. Campbell Scientific offers the Konect PakBus Router service to enable this two-way communication between Campbell Scientific support software and the data logger. When you purchase a cellular-enabled device from Campbell Scientific, Inc., a complimentary subscription to the Konect PakBus Router is included with your purchase.
