ThePM-H appears to a user or a server application as a single endpoint device. It can be queried, updated and configured either through a serial connection, or an over the air GPRS or WCDMA IP connection, or through SMS messaging. ThePM-Hpresents itself over these connections as an enhanced cellular modem with attached functional elements. These elements include: GPS location engine 1 General Purpose Bidirectional I/O (GPIO) pin 1 Relay drive pin output 1 1-Wire Bus Interface 3.3V Power out for Peripheral Sensors Serial UART port Input voltagesand Battery Voltage monitor Timers Watchdog lockup protection Motion detection Access to these elements and general-purpose interfaces is done through an extended AT command set as defined herein. Application scene: This product will be designed based on the 2G or WCDMAwirelessdata/MT6276 Baseband chipset, which includes GPS functionality, ARM CPU and GPRS protocol. This baseband internal connection 8M serial flash, GSM 900M/1800M/GPS RF Transceiver, and RF Front end circuit. © 2017 M-Labs Technologies3/ 14 The device will use one dual band antenna(GSM900&PCS1800)and one dedicate GPS antenna. 2 Hardware Design 2.1 Basic Hardware Items Requirement Baseband Chipset RF 2G Transceiver RF 3G Transceiver Memory MT6276A RF3235 RF7411TR7 MCP_NAND 1Gb(x16) / mobile DDR 512Mb(x16) Supportfor WCDMA Class 12 GPRS, GPS 2G band support :GSM850 and PCS1900 Support for 12 class GPRS 3G band support : Band2 and Band5 Internal Antenna[850M&1900M] Dedicate high performance ceramic antenna No-UIM mode, GSM card connector optional UART TX UART RX Air Interface Frequency Antenna GPS Antenna UIM requirement Interface 12V DC Input(1.2A max current) Voltage/Battery Monitor Build in battery manager Dedicate Timers Watchdog Motion Detect LED Battery Working Time Power switch Power Cable color Power Cable connector type © 2017 M-Labs Technologies4/ 14 Main/Aux/Solar inputs Relay Drive (Open Drain ,500mA current) GPIO1 1-Wire Bus Interface 3.3V Power out internal analog input scaled Supported No Supported GPS/Accelerometer 3 LED’s (Red, Green, Orange) Built in battery(4400mAh Lion) >40 hours (Continuously On) > 250 days Standby No 12 colors 12pin Power Consumption < 5Watts The PM-Hprovides support for specialized hardware features through extended AT commands. The features supported include the following. GPS The major functionality of the GPS module is to compute the correlation results between the incoming signal and the selected PRN code based on certain Carrier Doppler Frequency, Code Doppler Frequency, code phase, carrier phase, and the particular satellite the module is tracking or acquiring. GPIO The GPIO pin, is presented to the external environment on the main connector. It is a general purpose bidirectional line capable of providing system interrupts to generate a report or drive logic levels to external devices. This line is 3.3V logic level input or output with transient voltage protection and internal pull-up resistor. GP1 is intended to use for a Door open sensor. LED’s Three LED status indicators are provided to verify correct installation and operation. The status LEDs are color coded and directly convey the status of the cellular and GPS subsystems as described in the table below. Their valid operation also indicates operational status and power. LED Function Status Red GPS On: GPS satellites acquired and Locked Flash Slow: GPS satellite search is in progress Off: No power or GPS subsystem fault Green GSM/GPRS On: Indicates GPRS connection is made Connection Flash Slow: GPRS subsystem initialized but no connection Flash Fast: GPRS initialization in process Off: No power or GSM subsystem fault Orange battery Orange LED is Flashing to indicate charging charging The PM-H provides user control allowing the LEDs to be extinguished once installation is verified. This feature reduces power and further conceals the PM-H Tracker from untrained parties wishing to defeat its operation. UART A UART port is provided for AT command and data interaction and optionally for connection to peripheral sensors Relay Driver A 500mA sink capable output pin is provided. This pin is meant to drive a relay coil indented to operate a door opening device. © 2017 M-Labs Technologies5/ 14 1-Wire Bus Interface The 1-Wire bus interface can be connected to sensors that support the 1-wire serial protocol such as Temperature sensors or driver identification. 3.3V Power Out 3.3V Power output is available to power peripheral sensors such a cargo sensor. The power is turned on only when the peripheral sensor is being read to save power. Input Voltage and Battery Voltage Monitor The Input Voltage monitorsand battery voltage monitor are internal analog inputs scaled such that the DC value of the voltage input pin to the PM-H system and internal battery voltage is measured. This value is scaled to span the most significant 8 bits of the A/D and consequently covers a scale from 0 to 32V for Input Voltage and 0 to 9V for internal battery voltage Timers Timers resident on the GSM baseband chip generate periodic interrupts for power down wakeup, watchdog support, report generation and other timer related functions. Report timers are supported by related AT command and cause generation of periodic reports. Watchdog MT6276 chipset provide internal software Watchdog, and a physically dedicate Watchdog circuit requirement is optional. Motion Detect Configurable through AT commands the unit can go to a low power mode when the main power is removed until motion is detected. Upon wakening, a report can then be generated, and the GPS enabled to detect drive events. 2.2 Basic RF Performance Items Requirements Remark TRP free space >= 20 dBm TRP free space TIS free space <= -104dBm TIS free space Antenna loss <= -3dB TRP-TX Power Conducted Antenna Loss <= -3dB RX receive sensitivity conducted – TIS 2.3 Certification and Safety Items Requirement Drop Design 1.2meter 6 direction standard drop test Temperature Range -20 to 65C Operation -40 to +85° C Storage Humidity: 20% to 90% Operation 10% to 95% Storage © 2017 M-Labs Technologies6/ 14 Altitude: -500 to +18,000m Vehicle ISO Test ISO7637-2-2004; ISO7637-3-2007; ISO10605-2008; ISO16750-2-2010 FCC Certification FCC 47 CFR Part 15 ,Part2,Part 22,Part 24 Others Operator Requirement Industry Canada/ AT&T (optional) ESD Requirement 10KV non-Conductive © 2017 M-Labs Technologies7/ 14 3 Software Features 3.1 Basic Software Items Requirement Air Interface GSM850, PCS1900, WCDMA Band II, WCDMA Band V, GPRS Data IP Stack Upgrade Method Remote Update Power Modes AT Command Report Driver GPIO LEDs Watch Dog Reset Startup Banner GPS Supported Ipv4/IPV6 Remote update/ PC tool Supported Supported Supported Supported;3000records GPIO,LED,GPS,UART,3.3V out Interrupt for Door Open Detect GPS Status, WCDMA Status Supported Soft reset Supported 3.2 Remote Update The PM-Hsupports OTA field upgrades of the PM-Hresident application. An over the air TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) connection is made over a UDP/IP connection. A replacement file is then transferred from a server to the PM-Hand that file replaces the previous application image. 3.3 Auto Execute The Auto Execute Utility copies the contents of file system.exf into system executable RAM and executes it from there. This file is the factory default application. Another file named custom.exf can be loaded into the file system. Auto Execute will look first for a file named update.exf and load and execute that in place of custom.exf if it exists. If update.exf executes successfully, the previous copy of custom.exf is deleted from the file system and update.exf is renamed to custom.exf. 3.4 Power Modes The PM-H device supports several power modes that are set by the power mode command. In full power mode the GPS is active and the cellular subsystem will maintain a persistent cellular connection whenever service is available. IP connection is maintained according to © 2017 M-Labs Technologies8/ 14 the configuration of the device. The device can be put into several levels of low power mode whenever it runs on the internal backup battery, or if the external input voltage is low or if it is not movingdepending on how the unit is configured through AT commands. Power Mode Full Power (Track) Listen Stealth Cellular On On Off GPS On Off Off The device would return to full power whenever an event occurs that triggers a report. Those events include: Report timer GPIO change IP change Battery threshold Heartbeat Watchdog Power-up Motion Detected Any hardware or software reset will return the device to full power mode. 3.5 Report The PM-H captures data and forms a report record with that data. A report is a data structure containing all of the sensory and other typically useful data on the device. Reports are generated in response to specified events, such as periodic timeout, speed threshold, geo-fence crossing, etc., or in response to a Report Now command (AT+XRN). Report Queuing If a report trigger occurs while UDP connection is unavailable, it will be queued until connection becomes available and transmitted at such time. The only way report(s) can be lost is if too many reports are queued and the report-queue is overflowing. In such case the earliest report(s) will be discarded. The size of the queue can be configured via the Report Queue (AT+XRPQ) command. Ack’ed Mode UDP is not a 100% reliable connection and occasional reports or command/responses may be lost. Since all commands have responses, the server can repeat any command to which there is no response. In order to assure reliable reception of reports, Arsenal devices can be configured either in Normal or Ack’ed mode to send the reports. In the Normal mode the reports are simply sent “as is” with no acknowledgment from the server. In the Ack’ed mode every report sent is expected to be acknowledged by the server by sending back an ACK message back. If acknowledgement is not received within the specified timeout, the report is © 2017 M-Labs Technologies9/ 14 re-sent. If the report is not acknowledged after the specified number of attempts, it is queued. If acknowledgement is received after the report is queued (i.e. past timeout of the last attempt), it is ignored. Report is not considered “complete” until its acknowledgement is received. Thus, if report X is sent and report X+1 is triggered while waiting for acknowledgement of X, report X+1 will be queued until such acknowledgement is received and only then sent. The Arrow will attempt to re-send queued report(s) every time a new report is triggered. If there is more than one report queued, the reports will attempt to be sent in the order of triggering and only once the report is acknowledged, the next report is attempted. This assures that reports are sent and received in order. Ack’ed mode assures that all reports are received, but adds overhead in time and data. Report that is not acknowledged is sent again and eventually will be queued and sent again. The number and frequency of re-tries is configurable via the Report Acknowledgement command (AT+XRPA). Event Report Format Reports can be generated in either an ASCII representation of hex or as actual binary encoded hex. The reporting format is selected via Report Format (AT+XRPF) command. Note that whilethe logical content of the report is the same in both representations, the size for an ASCII report is twice the size of actual numbers of bytes compared to binary representation. 3.6 Reset There are a number of resets available on the device. Soft reset resets the baseband only by using an internal watchdog, while hard reset power cycles the whole device. There is also an option to reset the GPS sub-system only. Context Preservation When a reset is caused by the Network Watchdog or by the Reset command (modes 0,1), the context of the system is being preserved and is restored after the reset. The context includes all the periodic timers, the report queue, the odometer, etc. This allows to reset the unit as a troubleshooting measure either periodically or due to Network Watchdog without losing reports that are already in the queue or are pending on running timers. Note that the reset process may cause 1-2min of inaccuracy in the timers and should not be considered as very precise. 3.7 Startup Banner After a reset a startup banner is printed through the UART only.
