The sections include detailed design ideas along with tips and tricks we have used in implementing various applications. Each section has a brief description and diagrams to assist you in your planning stages with the CMM9900/CMM9920. MOUNTING The CMM9900/CMM9920 has four mounting holes arranged in the pattern shown in figure 1. If stand-offs are to be used, metal type is the recommended due to added ground potential. In figure 1, the stand-offs set the CMM9900/CMM9920 unit slightly higher than the host PCB. An air gap is not necessary but will allow for PCB to PCB isolation and noise immunity. The standoff used on the evaluation PCB is exaggerated to display the CMM9900/CMM9920. The height of these stand-offs are not necessarily ideal and space can be greatly conserved by using shorter ones. Figure 2. Shows an example of a plate shield already used on an application with the modification of bent tabs to allow for mounting of the CMM9900/CMM9920. This is a relatively inexpensive method of mounting and can be implemented easily when the plate is initially punched. Care should be taken so that the tabs do not extend past the flash area of the mounting holes. Figures 3 and 4. Shows the mechanical drawing of the CMM9900/CMM9920 units. These dimensions should be used for mounting and placement purposes. The drawing is illustrated from the bottom side perspective. The antenna and interface connectors are located on the topside of the PCB. 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 Washer Nut CU81K PCB Standoff (See Detail) Washer 4/40 (3.0 mm) Min 0.15" (3 mm) Min 0.250" (6 mm) 0.15" (3 mm) 0.250" (6 mm) 7728b Figure 1.

CMM9920 Dimensions 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 ANTENNA CONSIDERATIONS The diagrams below illustrate the different antenna selections used for applications. Each example has implementation criteria due to its performance and operation. A. The quarter wave antenna is small and lends itself well into tight applications where space is critical. A ground plane radius of greater than 100mm is required for proper operation. Failure to provide this grounding will result in erratic radiation patterns, signal loss and mismatched impedance to the CMM9900/CMM9920. B. The half wave antenna is twice the length of the quarter wave. It’s properties require less ground plane which make it more ideal for applications that have less metal mass. The antenna has a better radiation pattern. C. The dipole antenna provides a ground-plane-free operation with optimum gain for its size. This antenna provides its own ground-radiating element and can be used with plastic enclosures. WARNING Use of antenna types other than those included on the CMM9900/9920 FCC Equipment Authorizations may invalidate the FCC and PTCRB approvals for this product. See the appendix in the back of this document for a current list of approved antennas. 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 10 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter 1/5/2007 CMM9900/CMM9920 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 11 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 SHIELDING CONSIDERATIONS When planning the PCB layout for an application some design rules and layout plans should be considered. The following diagrams show various mounting configurations with respect to shielding. Often the application PCB does not allow for separate ground plane implementation. In these cases a list of design rules should be used in order to prevent inter-circuit problems. The last section of this document deals with common design practices used with RF module implementations. 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 12 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 CMM UNIT CMM UNIT MOUNTED WITH INTERFACE CONNECTOR ON TOP, USING RIBBON CONNECTOR CABLE FOR INTERFACE SOLID COPPER POUR PCB BACKPLANE ANTENNA PORT CMM UNIT CMM UNIT MOUNTED UPSIDE DOWN WITH FEMALE INTERFACE CONNECTOR USED SOLID COPPER POUR ANTENNA PORT RF CABLE SHIELD RIBBON CABLE APPLICATION PCA CMM UNIT 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 13 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 SEE DETAIL ANTENNA 100 mm MIN DETAIL GROUND PLANE MADE OF THIN SHEET METAL OR COPPER FOIL PLASTIC OR NON-CONDUCTIVE ENCLOSURE USED.

This means that no modification to the hardware or software of the application device is necessary in order to install and operate the CMM99xx in place of the legacy CMM device. (With the exception of the replacement of the CMM device, and possibly the antenna.) There are however, some specific steps necessary in order to successfully complete the process of installation into an existing application device. The following guidelines will describe the process of installing the CMM9900 or CMM9920 into existing CMM-based applications: NETWORK PROVISIONING OF THE CMM9900/CMM9920 The CMM9900 and CMM9920 must be provisioned for operation on the GSM network before they access the network to send and receive data. The CMM99xx devices receive the majority of their network provisioning information through the installation of a GSM SIM card onto the module. The installation of the SIM card onto the CMM99xx module must be completed prior to installation of the module into the application device. There is also additional information that must be provided to the module in order to finalize the provisioning process and allow communication of data through the Control Channel Network Server via SMS and/or GPRS. This information may include some or all of the following: • • • • • • Original Primary MIN number Any secondary MIN number(s) used Electronic Serial Number(ESN) of original CMM module SMS address for Control Channel Network Server Control Channel Network Server IP address for GPRS data APN for GPRS data Default values for SMS address, Control Channel Network Server IP address, and APN are preloaded into the device based upon the type of Control Channel Network at time of installation configuration. These values may updated manually via the serial interface or over-the-air if they require changes in the future. 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 15 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 COPYING THE CONFIGURATION INFORMATION FROM THE ORIGINAL DEVICE The configuration information from the original CMM device is necessary for the CMM99xx to properly communicate the data back to the network server and function transparently. Refer to the Sections following for specific information regarding removal, installation and validation. REMOVING THE ORIGINAL CMM DEVICE The original CMM device should be removed using procedures appropriate for the specific application device. Power should always be removed from both the application device and the CMM device prior to conducting any installation, or removal of the CMM device. Special care should be taken not to damage the application unit or the original CMM device. (Further operation of the original CMM module may be required in order to copy the configuration data for loading onto the new CMM99xx module.) WARNING Precautions must be taken whenever handling the CMM to protect the electronic circuitry of both the CMM module and the application device from damage due to static discharge (ESD). INSTALLING THE CMM99xx RETROFIT ADAPTER The CMM99xx device should be installed using procedures appropriate for the specific application device. This will normally be the same, or very similar, procedure to that used for installation of the original CMM device. If the existing antenna connected to the application device is not an approved antenna, it should be removed and replaced with an approved antenna prior to re-applying power to the unit. VALIDATING THE INSTALLATION Validation of the CMM99xx installation should be conducted to confirm successful installation of the device and that the application device is still functioning properly. Validation testing should also confirm that all necessary configuration and identity information has been programmed into the CMM99xx device. 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 16 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 APPROVALS The CMM9900 and CMM9920 have been approved as complete GSM Modem type devices. The FCC, Industry Canada, PTCRB and carrier approvals have all been completed with the CMM99xx as a final finished product. With the exception of Part 15, no further testing or certifications should be necessary for the final application, provided that an approved antenna configuration is used in that application. The following approvals have been secured (or are in-process) for the CMM99xx products: • FCC Equipment Authorization (type approval) • FCC Part 15 Class B • Industry Canada Equipment Authorization • PTCRB Approval • Cingular Approval • Aeris.net Approval • Numerex Approval - WARNING - The CMM99xx device must be used with an antenna system that is included in the CMM99xx approval files. Use of an unapproved antenna system in the end application will make these approvals invalid in that application. Applications requiring the use of an antenna system not currently on the approved list will require either (1) Re-testing and updated approvals to add that antenna to the CMM9900 list of approved antenna systems; or (2) New approvals under the customer name. PART 15 CERTIFICATION The CMM9900 and CMM9920 have been certified to meet the requirements of Part 15 of the FCC Rules as a Class B device. This certification only applies to the CMM99xx unit itself. Once installed into an application device, responsibility for Part 15 compliance becomes the responsibility of the manufacturer/provider of the end-product (application). The environment within the application device includes other potential sources of radio frequency (RF) interference in addition to the CMM99xx. These potential sources include such items as crystal oscillator(s), digital address/data lines, switching power supplies, and other circuitry. All application devices subject to Part 15 of the FCC rules must be retested and certified to be in compliance with the rules. This retesting and certification is the responsibility of the customer. 1/5/2007 ---CONFIDENTIAL--- 17 CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 PRODUCT LABELING EQUIPMENT AUTHORIZATION The labeling of the CMM99xx devices includes certain identifying information that must be visible in the final end-product (application). If the label of the CMM99xx device is not clearly visible from the exterior of the end product, then the exterior labeling of the end product must include information referring to the enclosed transmitter module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: APVCMM9900, IC: 363ACMM9900” or “Contains FCC ID: APVCMM9900, IC: 363A-CMM9900” - WARNING Proper labeling of the device is a mandatory requirement for approval of these devices. Failure to properly label the application device will invalidate all device approvals and may subject the end-product manufacturer to sanctions and/or fines. PRODUCT SAFETY WARNING The following safety warning must be included in the product documentation for the installer and end-user: “To comply with RF Exposure and FCC Regulations (CFR 47 Parts 22H & 24E) this device must only be used with antenna systems approved for use with this device.
