Power Consumption
The TALON-LTE provides 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
Two GPIO pins, GP1 and GP2, are presented to the external environment on the main connector.
They are general purpose bidirectional lines capable of providing system interrupts to generate
a report or drive logic levels to external devices. These lines are 2.8V logic level and are 16V
tolerant. These pins default to input. GP1 is pulled down representing 0 when disconnected;
GP2 is pulled up representing logical 1 when disconnected. They should be asserted to a known
value if used. GP1 is intended to use for Ignition Sensing.
LED’s
Two 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
Cellular
On: Indicates WWAN connection is made
Connection
Flash Slow: WWAN subsystem initialized but no connection
Flash Fast: WWAN initialization in process
Off: No power or WWAN subsystem fault
The TALON-LTE provides user control allowing the LEDs to be extinguished once installation
is verified. This feature reduces power and further conceals the TALON-LTE Tracker from
untrained parties wishing to defeat its operation.
UART
A UART port is provided for AT command and data interaction and optionally for application
specific control. The UART can also be used as an expansion port for sensors and other
peripherals
Relay Driver
A 500mA sink capable output pin is provided. This pin is meant to drive a relay coil indented
to interrupt the starter solenoid relay for the ignition circuit to a car.
Battery Monitor
The battery monitor is internal analog input scaled such that the DC value of the power input
pin to the TALON-LTE system 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 25.5 Volts.
Timers
Timers resident on the 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
SQN3223 chipset provides internal software Watchdog, and a physically dedicate Watchdog
circuit requirement is optional.
The circuit includes is MCU that acts as a failsafe external watchdog. The MCU power cycles
the system, if no activity is detected for 2 hours.
Motion Detect (Option)
A factory populates option for motion detector is provided. If populated at the time the TALONLTE is manufactured, this option will work with firmware power down options to keep the
TALON-LTE in a very low power down state until motion is detected. Upon wakening, a report
can then be generated.

Remote Update
The TALON-LTE supports OTA field upgrades of the TALON-LTE resident 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 TALON-LTE and that file replaces
the previous application image. Additionally the whole stack can be updated using an OMADM protocol.
3.3
Power Modes
The TALON-LTE 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 the configuration of the device.
The device can be put in low power mode whenever it runs on a backup battery or if the external
battery is low or if it is not moving. In low power mode the GPS is not running and the LED’s
are 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

Any hardware or software reset will return the device to full power mode.
3.4
AT Command
TALON-LTE commands are AT extensions specific to TALON-LTE devices. They are closely
based on commands that are as similar as possible to other industry common devices and are
essentially subsets of standard TALON-LTE commands. Common commands used with LTE
modems supporting IP connectivity are not included within the TALON-LTE command set
extensions. These commands are left in their native structure.
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 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 Talon-LTE 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+IONACK).
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+IONRF) command. Note that
while the 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.
3.5
Reset
There are a number of resets available on the device. Soft reset only restarts the software
running on the device. Hard reset is caused by resetting the whole basband module via a reset
pin. There is also an option to reset the GPS sub-system only.

3.5.1 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.
3.6

After a reset a startup banner is printed through the UART only. The format and content of
the banner shown below:
