HARDWARE INSTALLATION
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Introduction
Hardware installation has to be carried out by experienced technicians
familiar with installing similar types of equipment.
Before You Start Installing
Ignition Sense Cable
NOTE
The iM1000 will not operate without the Ignition
Accessories Cable installed or a power on plug connected.
Installation Planning
Planning is the key to fast, easy iM1000 installation. Before a hole is drilled
or a wire is run, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you
intend to mount the antenna, iM1000, and accessories. Plan wire and cable
runs to provide maximum protection from pinching, crushing, and
overheating.
Recommended Tools For Installation
The following tools, screws, and washers are recommended for proper
installation of your iM1000.

iM1000 -Data Modem
iM1000 Mounting
The standard mounting of the iM1000 can be mounted on different types of
mounting surfaces. Be sure the mounting surface is able to adequately
support the weight of the iM1000. Allow sufficient space around the
iM1000 for free air flow for cooling. Be sure the unit is close enough to the
vehicle operator to permit easy access to operating indicators. Although the
iM1000 can be mounted to a plastic dashboard, it is recommended that the
mounting screws be located so they penetrate the supporting metal frame of
the dashboard.
Antenna Mounting
The best mounting location for the antenna is in the center of a large, flat
conductive surface. In almost all vehicles, these requirements are best
satisfied by mounting the antenna at the center of the roof. Some vehicles
have a large trunk lid that provides a good antenna location. If the trunk lid
is used, connect grounding straps between the trunk lid and vehicle chassis
to ensure the trunk lid is at chassis ground.
Three types of antennas can be used:
1. RAFU136A - Magnetic Antenna
2. FAD5524A - Mobile Window Antenna
3. HAF9067A - Mobile Roof Mount Antenna
Make sure that you refer to the antenna installation instructions according to
the kit number.
DC Power Cable Installation
The iM1000 must be operated only in negative ground electrical systems.
Reverse polarity does not damage the iM1000; however, iM1000 protection
circuits cause the cable fuse to blow. Check the ground polarity before you
begin installation.
The DC power cable (FKN4448A) is long enough for installation in most
vehicles. Begin the power cable installation in the following manner.
1. Determine a routing plan for the power cable with reference to where
the iM1000 is to be mounted.
2. Locate the nearest available chassis ground mounting point and shorten
the black lead to remove excess cable length.
3. Locate the fuse holder as close to the battery as possible and away from
any hot component. Mount the fuse holder using the provided mounting
hole and dress wires as necessary. Connect the fuse holder red adapter
lead plus to the mating receptacle on the red lead of the power cable.
See Figure 3..
4. Connect the power cable black lead directly to the chassis ground.
5. Connect the power cable red lead from the fuse holder to the positive (+)
battery terminal. Make sure the adapter cable is connected to the main
power cable red lead.
6. Plug fuse into in-line fuse holder as shown in Figure 3..

affected.
2. Use the iM1000 mounting bracket as a template, mark the positions
of the holes on the mounting surface.
3. Secure the iM1000 mounting flinges to the surface with the four
(M4) screws provided.
4. Mount the antenna using the instructions provided with the antenna
kit. Run the coaxial cable to the iM1000 mounting location.
iModem/user Page 8 Thursday, October 7, 1999 7:46 PM
iM1000 -Data Modem
If necessary, cut off the access cable and install the cable connector.
5. To assure compliance with United States FCC regulations on RF
exposure, position the antenna in such a way to maintain a
separation distance of at least 8 inches (20 cms) between the
antenna and the body of any user and nearby person. Connect the
antenna cable connector to the radio antenna connector on the rear
of the iM1000. See Figure 4.
6. Plug the power cable into the iM1000 power connector.

There are two ways that you can connect to the Internet with an iDEN
modem: packet data and circuit-switched data.
• Packet Data—uses an IP address rather than a modem number.
• Circuit-Switched Data—uses a data modem number.
Connecting with Packet Data Services
When a packet-data connection is active, your Internet service provider is
your iDEN carrier.
If you have not connected the data cable to the computer and your modem,
do so now. If you need instructions, see “This section provides information

Establishing Communication
To set up your iDEN modem for packet data services using AT commands,
you must first establish basic communication with the modem.
If you have not connected the data cable to the computer and your modem,
do so now. If you need instructions, see “This section provides information
for connecting the data cable and installing the software.” on page 16.
Software Connections
After you establish the hardware connections, you must run a terminal
software program on your computer. The terminal program provides simple
communication through the computer serial port.
To test the connection,
1. Type ATi4 in the Terminal Window.
2. Press Enter. You should see one of the following messages:
MOTOROLA, IDEN
- or -
OK
MOTOROLA, IDEN
If the Connection Fails
If the message, OK, or the message, 0, does not display when you issue the
AT command, check the connections and try again. Make sure that:
√
The modem is powered on.
√
The cable is connected according to the instructions in
“This section provides information for connecting the data
cable and installing the software.” on page 16.
√
The serial (COM) port on the computer, to which the cable
is connected, is the same as the serial port specified in your
communication software.
√
The communication program that you are using is listed in
“Configuring Communications Software”page 51.
√
The software is configured according to the procedure
described in this section.
If, after taking the above measures, the connection continues to fail, see
“TROUBLESHOOTING” on page 53.

Configure Encryption Settings
Data Encryption allows you to send and receive sensitive information
without allowing others to electronically eavesdrop on your data
transmissions. Although network performance might be adversely affected
by the activation of data encryption, its use is recommended if you are
connecting to secure networks.
Note that this encryption setting is independent of encryption offered by
applications such as Netscape.
Data Encryption is disabled by default.
If you do not want to use the data encryption feature, skip ahead to “Saving
Your AT Settings” on page 67.
If you want to use data encryption, you must specify the request as
negotiable or not negotiable.
•
If the encryption request is not negotiable and the network is not able to
grant the request (for whatever reason) for encryption, your connection
will be terminated.
• If the encryption request is negotiable and encryption is not available in
the network, the connection will be maintained in a non-encrypted state.
You also have the option to specify an Encryption Key Size.
The following example uses the Encryption Key Size 40. You can substitute
this value with any value within the allowed range of 40 to 64.

Saving Your AT Settings
Your modem is now properly set up for typical iDEN Wireless Data
Services use. These settings, however, are stored only in the modem’s
Random Access Memory (RAM). If the modem is turned off, the settings
will be lost. The next step, then, is to save the settings in the modem’s nonvolatile memory.
Like many other modems, the iDEN modem is capable of storing more than
one personality, or image, into non-volatile memory. Each image can then
be read, altered, and saved without changing the contents of the others. The
iDEN modem has three images.
By default, the third image is loaded when the modem is powered on or
when the data cable is unplugged. It might seem logical to store these
settings into this first profile. However, because many communication
programs alter the contents of this first image, some of your parameters
might be overwritten. For this reason, store these parameters in the second
image.
By convention, the first image is named User Image 0, the second image is
User Image 1, and the third image is User Image 2.

S-Registers
S-registers are memory locations in the modem that you can program to suit
your data communication needs. For instance, you can set up the modem to
automatically answer all incoming data calls.
S-registers are numbered from 0 (zero) to 255 (that is, S0 to S255). Since
many of these registers are reserved for purposes of internal operation, you
may customize only a subset of the modem’s registers.
To see the list of S-Registers that you may customize, see “Customizing SRegisters” on page 91.
Programming an S-Register
To program an S-register:
1. Go to the command mode of your communication software.
2. Type ATSn=x where n is the number of the S-register that you want to
customize; and x is the value that you want to assign to that register.
For example, to set up your modem to automatically answer all
incoming data calls, type ATS0=x (where x is any number between 1
and 255).
3. Press Enter.
NOTES
90
•
You might experience undesirable consequences on
the operation of the remote modem if you modify the S7
or S10 registers from their default values. For optimal
performance, use the default values for these two
registers.
•
If you write to an S-register that is not programmable or
if the value that you assigned to a register is invalid, the
modem will still return an OK message on the computer
screen. But, this will have no effect on S-register values.
iModem/user Page 91 Thursday, October 7, 1999 7:46 PM
APPENDIX
Reading the Value of an S-Register
You may also want to read the value of a particular S-register.
For a list of supported S-registers, see Table 7 on page 91.
To read the value of an S-register:
1. Bring up the command mode of your communication software.
2. Type ATSn where n is the number of the S-register that you want to
read from the software’s command mode.
For example, to read the value of S-register number 0 (zero), you
would type ATS0?.
3. Press Enter. The value of the requested S-register displays.
4. If you attempt to read the value of an S-register that is not supported,
the modem displays the message, ERROR.
You can also read S-register values in bulk by issuing an AT&V command.
Customizing S-Registers
You can use the following list of S-registers to customize the modem’s data
operation.
