Thisrequires the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of portable BG2-E/BG2-W based applications tobe evaluated and approved for compliance with national and/or international regulations. Since the SAR value varies significantly with the individual product design manufacturers areadvised to submit their product for approval if designed for portable use. For European and US3markets the relevant directives are mentioned below. It is the responsibility of the manufacturerof the final product to verify whether or not further standards, recommendations or directivesare in force outside these areas.

BG2-E/BG2-W Hardware Interface Overview1.3 Regulatory and Type Approval Information14BG2_HIO_v01.000 Page 14 of 30 2010-8-30Confidential / Released1.3.4 Safety PrecautionsThe following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, usage,service or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating BG2-E/BG2-W. Manufacturersof the cellular terminal are advised to convey the following safety information to users and op-erating personnel and to incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the prod-uct. Failure to comply with these precautions violates safety standards of design, manufactureand intended use of the product. Cinterion Wireless Modules GmbH assumes no liability forcustomer failure to comply with these precautions.When in a hospital or other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of mobiles. Switch the cellular terminal or mobile off, if instructed to do so by the guide-lines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF energy. The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing aids can be affected by interference from cellular terminals or mobiles placed close to the device. If in doubt about potential danger, contact the physician or the manufac-turer of the device to verify that the equipment is properly shielded. Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their hand-held mobile away from the pacemaker, while it is on. Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it can-not be switched on inadvertently. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular services to the offender, legal action, or both.Do not operate the cellular terminal or mobile in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of any electri-cal equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard.Your cellular terminal or mobile receives and transmits radio frequency energy while switched on. Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always switch off the cellular terminal or mobile wherever forbidden, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.Road safety comes first! Do not use a hand-held cellular terminal or mobile when driv-ing a vehicle, unless it is securely mounted in a holder for handsfree operation. Before making a call with a hand-held terminal or mobile, park the vehicle. Handsfree devices must be installed by qualified personnel. Faulty installation or oper-ation can constitute a safety hazard.IMPORTANT!Cellular terminals or mobiles operate using radio signals and cellular networks. Because of this, connection cannot be guaranteed at all times under all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential commu-nications, for example emergency calls. Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the cellular terminal or mobile must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength. Some networks do not allow for emergency calls if certain network services or phone features are in use (e.g. lock functions, fixed dialling etc.). You may need to deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call.Some networks require that a valid SIM card be properly inserted in the cellular termi-nal or mobile.

BG2-E/BG2-W Hardware Interface Overview3.1 Operating Modes18BG2_HIO_v01.000 Page 18 of 30 2010-8-30Confidential / Released3.1 Operating ModesThe table below briefly summarizes the various operating modes referred to in the followingsections. Table 7: Overview of operating modesMode FunctionNormal operation GSM / GPRS SLEEP Various powersave modes set with AT+CFUN command. Software is active to minimum extent. If the module was reg-istered to the GSM network in IDLE mode, it is registered and paging with the BTS in SLEEP mode, too. Power saving can be chosen at different levels: The NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode (AT+CFUN=0) disables the AT interface. The CYCLIC SLEEP modes AT+CFUN=7and 9 alternatingly activate and deacti-vate the AT interfaces to allow permanent access to all AT commands.GSM IDLE Software is active. Once registered to the GSM network, pag-ing with BTS is carried out. The module is ready to send and receive.GSM TALK Connection between two subscribers is in progress. Power consumption depends on network coverage individual set-tings, such as DTX off/on, FR/EFR/HR, hopping sequences, antenna.GPRS IDLE Module is ready for GPRS data transfer, but no data is cur-rently sent or received. Power consumption depends on net-work settings and GPRS configuration (e.g. multislot settings).GPRS DATA GPRS data transfer in progress. Power consumption depends on network settings (e.g. power control level), uplink / down-link data rates and GPRS configuration (e.g. used multislot settings).Power Down Normal shutdown after sending the AT^SMSO command. Only a voltage regulator is active for powering the RTC. Software is not active. Interfaces are not accessi-ble. Operating voltage (connected to BATT+) remains applied.Alarm mode Restricted operation launched by RTC alert function while the module is in Power Down mode. Module will not be registered to GSM network. Limited number of AT commands is accessible.
BG2-E/BG2-W Hardware Interface Overview4 Antenna Interface19BG2_HIO_v01.000 Page 19 of 30 2010-8-30Confidential / Released4 Antenna InterfaceThe RF interface has an impedance of 50. BG2-E/BG2-W is capable of sustaining a total mis-match at the antenna lines without any damage, even when transmitting at maximum RF pow-er. The external antenna must be matched properly to achieve best performance regarding radi-ated power, DC-power consumption and harmonic suppression. Matching networks are not in-cluded on the BG2-E/BG2-W PCB and should be placed in the host application. Regarding the return loss BG2-E/BG2-W provides the following values:The connection of the antenna or other equipment must be decoupled from DC voltage. Thisis necessary because the antenna connector is DC coupled to ground via an inductor for ESDprotection.Table 8: Return lossState of module Return loss of module Recommended return loss of applicationReceive > 8dB > 12dB Transmit not applicable > 12dB Idle < 5dB not applicable

A special URC reports whether the moduleenters or leaves the restriced temperature range (see [1]; AT^SCTM).Note that within the specified operating temperature ranges the board temperature may varyto a great extent depending on operating mode, used frequency band, radio output power andcurrent supply voltage. When data are transmitted over GPRS the quad band module variant automatically reverts toa lower Multislot Class if the temperature rises to the limit specified for normal operation and,vice versa, returns to the higher Multislot Class if the temperature is back to normal.
