2.0 Regulatory Compliance FCC
2.1 Integration Considerations and Installation Requirements
The Enabler IIE modem is designed for use in a variety of host units, "enabling" the host
platform to perform wireless data communications.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the device.

In order to use the Enabler IIE modem without additional FCC certification approvals,
the installation must meet the following conditions:
Maximum RF output power and antenna gain to meet Maximum Permissible Exposure
Requirements:

GSM850 mode: Maximum antenna gain is 6.5 dBi.

GSM1900 mode: Maximum antenna gain is 3.0 dBi.

If used in an application such as a handheld or body worn device with the antenna less than 20
cm (7.9 in.) from the human body when the device is operating, then the integrator is
responsible for passing additional "as installed" testing and the device will require it’s own FCC
ID and FCC testing.

If used in a "mobile" application where the antenna is normally separated at least 20 cm (7.9
in) from the human body during device operation, then an appropriate warning label must be
placed on the host unit adjacent to the antenna. The label should contain a statement such as
the following:
WARNING
RF exposure. Keep at least 20 cm
(7.9 in) separation distance from
the antenna and the human body.

Host unit user manuals and other documentation must also include appropriate caution and
warning statements and information.

Integration Guide
Draft

If the FCCID for the modem is not visible when installed in the host platform, then a
permanently attached or marked label must be displayed on the host unit referring to the
enclosed modem.
For example, the label should contain wording such as:
Contains GSM/GPRS/EDGE transmitter module
FCC ID: MIVEDG0208
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

4.5 General design guidelines for utilizing Enfora GSM modules
The following guidelines are provided in an effort to allow Enabler IIE module users to successfully
implement their PCB layout to obtain the best performance. This includes the lowest possible EMI
emissions, maximum thermal conduction, mechanical integrity, and voice quality. The Enabler IIE
module is a very compact, high performance design, yet it is easy to interface into the final product. In
order to realize its full potential, designers should pay close attention to ground structures, the routing of
RF and Digital traces, and the size of the power supply lines.
These design tips are strictly guidelines and are not
meant to be a complete list of items that guarantee
actual performance. Each application is different and
may require variation from these guidelines, however,
care should be given to utilize these sound engineering
principles whenever possible.

4.6 Advanced tips for an RF friendly layout
Ground Plane
To ensure the lowest possible EMI emissions and maximum thermal conductivity, it is
recommended that all metal tabs on the GSM module shield must be soldered down onto a
continuous ground plane that runs under the entire module. Ample ground vias should be
provided around the metal tabs to create a low impedance ground. It is recommended to
minimize the number of I/O and power traces and vias under the GSM module to allow for as
much ground plane as possible. If the integrated unit includes more than one board, the design
must guarantee a good RF ground connection between the boards in order to make sure the
ground planes are at the same RF potential. An example of a good ground structure and pad
layout is shown below in Figure 1.

Thermal Relief
Because the ground plane acts as a large heat sink, it can affect the solderability of
components. A common method to reduce this effect is to use thermal relief around the pad in
question. However, great care must be taken when using thermal relief for high current or high
frequency applications
For example, a large thermal relief like the one shown in Figure 2 can serve the purpose for
general applications such as low current, low speed data lines, DC connections and audio
frequency applications. Such thermal relief structures should be avoided for applications
where high current and/or high frequency is involved, such as those using the Enabler Module.
Depending on the frequency of operation, the long narrow thermal relief traces between the
pad and the ground plane act like an RF choke. These RF chokes become higher impedance
at harmonics of the fundamental frequency making it problematic for high frequency
suppression. This can make it difficult to pass type approval testing.
POOR RF thermal relief
Figure 2 - Example of a POOR RF Thermal Relief
If thermal relief is necessary, it is recommended that you use short, fat traces similar to those
shown in Figure 3. This will still provide a solderable connection, while providing a better RF
connection. Making them shorter also allows for a more continuous ground plane due to less
copper being removed from the area. It is also recommended to have ground vias around all
thermal relief of critical ground pins such as the five Enabler shield tabs.

GOOD RF thermal relief
Figure 3 - Example of a GOOD RF Thermal Relief
Antenna and RF Signal Trace
The PCB trace that feeds the RF output port must be designed for a 50 ohm characteristic
impedance, coplanar, or routed into internal layers to keep the top layer continuous around
and underneath the Enabler module. Ample ground vias should be provided around the RF
contacts, the RF trace and launch pad. If possible, keep I/O and power traces away from the
RF port. This includes traces running parallel or orthogonal to it. Thermal relief should not be
used on the antenna output port ground pads. The designer must pay close attention to the
size of the pad and thickness of the dielectric beneath the signal pad and trace. Most PCB
manufacturers can adjust the trace width to maintain 50 ohms impedance if the traces are
identified and instructions are included on the FAB drawing. This service is typically provided
at no or minimal additional cost.
For minimum RF emissions due to the fundamental frequency of operation, the Enabler
module works best with an antenna load that has a VSWR of 1.5:1 or better. The antenna
should not have gain at the harmonic frequencies, otherwise, the conducted harmonics could
get amplified to a point where the product no longer passes type approval. However, for
applications where antenna quality is less than ideal, it is recommended to have a low pass
filter (Pi structure with N=3) in the RF path to the antenna. This is a secondary plan should
there be a need to lower harmonic levels at frequencies above the PCS band. The pad
structure may also be used to match the antenna load impedance, if required. If it is not
needed, a capacitor of low reactance may be used to bridge the Pi structure.
The RF cable going between the Enable module and the antenna is very lossy, therefore, the
length of this cable should be kept as short a possible.
If multiple antennas are used in their design, care should be taken during placement selection
to minimize the coupling between the GSM antenna and the other antennas.

Vbat Input
The Enabler Vbat input can have a relative high current draw that can fluctuate rapidly,
especially when transmitting at max power and burst mode. The Vbat interface must be
designed to provide the required instantaneous voltage and current with minimal voltage
droop. This includes both sufficient bulk decoupling capacitance as well as adequate layout
provisions.
When laying out the connections to the Enabler interface connector, it is tempting to use traces
of the same width as the connector pins. However, this is a very compact connector and
traces of that width will not have sufficient copper. Similar to the discussion on thermal relief,
the use of narrow traces to connect the Vbat pins to the source voltage can act like a high
impedance and cause a significant voltage droop when higher currents are required as shown
in Figure 4.
Figure 4 - Example of Vbat Voltage Droop
If the Vbat drops too low, the Enabler modules will reset. To minimize the trace loss, it is
suggested to use a larger trace that spans several pins as shown in Figure 5. Any concern
about solderability can be mitigated by using solder mask with cutouts for the individual pins as
shown by the blue lines in the figure. The layout should provide sufficient trace width over the
entire trace from the Enable modules all the way to the source of the Vbat voltage. Any
transitions between layers for this trace should utilize multiple vias.
Since even the best layout will have some impedance from the source to the Enabler module,
sufficient bulk decoupling capacitance is required at the Vbat input to the Enabler module. It is
suggested to use at least two 1000 uF, low ESR, tantalum capacitors located very close to the
Enabler interface connector Vbat pins. Any thermal relief used on these capacitors should
comply with the information given above in order to provide the lowest impedance possible.
The grounding of these capacitors is critical. Therefore, it should be a low impedance and
should utilize multiple vias to the internal ground plane close to the capacitor as well.

6.5 Circuit Protection
Other than the basic low level ESD protection within the module’s integrated circuits (typically 2000 V), the
Enabler EDG0208 does not have any protection against ESD events or other excursions that exceed the
specified operating parameters.
The only exception is that the remote SIM lines on the main I/O connector do have additional ESD protection
that should handle standard human-model contact ESD events.
Generally, ESD protection (typically TVS/Transzorb devices) should be added to all signals that leave the
host board. This includes VBAT/VCC.
Series resistors (typically 47 ) can also be added in series with data lines to limit the peak current during a
voltage excursion.
Caution – It is the Integrator’s responsibility to protect
the Enabler EDG0208 from electrical disturbances and
excursions that exceed the specified operating
parameters.

that 1000 to 2500 F of capacitance be placed as close to
the modem I/O connector as possible.
It should be noted that the input voltage level should not
drop below the minimum voltage rating under any
circumstances, especially during the uplink burst period.

Ring Indicate
The Enabler EDG0208 module is capable of using the Ring line to discern the type of incoming call. The
indicator can be monitored via a hardware line available on the 60 pin I/O signal connector. The Ring
Indicator pin is #49.
The function of the Ring line depends on the type of the call received.
When the module is receiving a voice call, the Ring line goes low for 1 second and high for another 2
seconds. Every 3 seconds the ring string is generated and sent over the Receive (Data Out) (Rx) line. If
there is a call in progress and call waiting is activated for a connected handset or hands free device, the
Ring pin switches to ground in order to generate acoustic signals that indicate the waiting call.

100 mS will turn the modem ON. When the modem is ON, a high-to-low pulse of XXX mS will deregister
from the network and turn the modem OFF. XXX is > 100 mS and can be configured via AT Command for
pulses up to 10000 mS. This input has a “weak pull-up” resistor internal to the module. If this pin is not
being controlled manually with the micro controller (or other device), the pin must be grounded.

6.8 Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) Carrier
The SIM, an integral part of any GSM terminal device, is a “smart card” that is programmed with subscriber
information:

The user information consists of an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) number, which is
registered with the GSM provider, and an encryption Ki (pronounced "key"). This information
consists of a microprocessor and memory installed on a plastic card.
Note: The SIM is not provided with the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module. The SIM must be obtained
from the GSM service provider and must be provisioned by the operator for data and/or voice. Always
take care to protect the SIM: the GSM terminal will not operate without the SIM installed.
The SIM provides the IMSI for authentication. To gain access to the GSM network, the network
must recognize the IMSI number, and the terminal must be able to properly decrypt the data sent
by the network. The SIM also serves as a buffer for SMS messages, storing the message for
transmission until a radio link is available and buffering received messages until retrieved.
6.8.1
SIM Integration for the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module
The Enabler EDG0208 default configuration does not include an on-board SIM carrier. Enfora provides a
separate product SKU for the Enabler EDG0208 module with the integrated SIM carrier.
6.8.2
Using a Remote SIM with the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module
The Enabler EDG0208 default configuration does not include an on-board SIM carrier. If the module is
going to be integrated using a remote SIM, the following guidelines are provided:

To utilize a remote SIM, the integrator must provide a suitable SIM connector on the Application.

The maximum distance from the Enabler EDG0208 to the remote SIM connector must not exceed
25.4 cm (10 inches).

7.0 Modes of Operation
GSM/GPRS/EGPRS supports many optional services and modes. The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module
supports the following services:

Circuit-switched data

Short-Message Services (SMS)

Class B/C GPRS Functionality

Voice communication

EGPRS
7.1 Enabling the Transmission Modes for the GSM/GPRS/EGPRS Services
Each of the GSM/GPRS/EGPRS services has two modes that can be enabled separately:

Mobile-originated (MO): allows the making of a service request (such as, making a telephone call or
sending an SMS)

Mobile-terminated (MT): allows receiving a service request (such as receiving a telephone call or an
SMS)
Note: Contact your local GSM operator to ensure that the services and modes have been provisioned
for the SIM.
7.2 Voice Communication
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module has full voice capabilities, provided the necessary connections have
been made for the speaker and microphone pins on the 60-pin I/O connector. The Enfora Enabler-IIE AT
Command Set Reference - EDG0208AT001 has the entire list of commands that can be used to control the
voice functionality. The quick start guide in this manual provides a basic command set that can be used to
initialize and test the voice functionality.
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module supports three standard vocoder compression algorithms for voice
communication: Full-Rate, Enhanced Full-Rate (EFR), and Half-rate (HR), and also provides support for the
Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) codec.
7.3 Circuit-Switched Data
In this mode, the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module supports both of the connection modes of transmission
that are provided by GSM:

Non-Transparent mode delivers a constantly low error rate but with a non-guaranteed throughput or
delay. The Non-Transparent service provides a performance that is closest to using a modem over a
fixed Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) line.
Note: All GSM service providers may not support Transparent mode. In those cases, the Enfora
Enabler EDG0208 module can be configured to switch automatically to Non-Transparent mode.
This capability depends on the settings in the AT+CBST command.

8.0 SIM Operation
8.1 Provisioning the SIM
The SIM can support optional features or services. Most operators typically configure the SIM to
send/receive voice calls and to receive SMS; however, some may require an additional tariff to enable the
SIM to send SMS. The transmission of circuit switched and GPRS data are also additional services that
may be required to allow the service:

Mobile-originated (MO): allows making a service request (such as, making a call or sending an SMS)

Mobile-terminated (MT): allows receiving a service request (such as, receiving a phone call or an SMS)
It is imperative for the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module that the SIM be configured for the optional services
that are required for the application.
8.2 GSM Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module supports four GSM services (modes of operation) that must be
enabled by the operator:

Voice calls (MO and MT): requires a telephone number;

SMS (MO and MT): uses the telephone number for voice;

Circuit-switched data calls (MO and MT): requires a telephone number;

The GSM SIM can have multiple telephone numbers.
8.3 GPRS Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module supports the following GPRS (modes of operation) that must be
enabled by the operator:


9.0 Software Interface
9.1 Software Interface
The application sends commands to the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module via the I/O signal connector.
These commands use the Enfora AT Command Set.
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module operates in one of the following modes:

Command mode: Used for configuring the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module, for interrogating the GSM
network, and for placing and receiving calls. It uses the AT command set via the serial port for
communication.

On-line mode: Used after a circuit-switched data call has been established. Data is passed between
the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module and the controlling application without command interpretation.
The only AT command that is interpreted in On-line mode is the +++ command. (This command places
the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module in Command mode but does not terminate the circuit-switched
data call.)
The AT command driver of the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module never exits the Command state, that is, it
never enters the “On-line” mode.

In the Command state, characters that are received from the Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) are
treated as AT commands by the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module.

In response to the commands received from the CPE, the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module sends
characters (AT commands) to the CPE.

Various events can also trigger the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module to send characters (AT
commands) to the CPE.
9.2 Format for the AT Commands
The general format of the command line is:   



AT
See AT Command Manual
0X0D
The prefix AT obtains synchronization, identifies the character parameters, and indicates that a command
may be in the following characters.
AT commands are not case sensitive: use either capital letters or lower-case letters for the AT command.
Note: Some AT Command parameter values ARE case sensitive and are documented in the
Enfora Enabler-IIE AT Command Set Reference - EDG0208AT001.
9.3 Enfora AT Command Set
For a full description of the AT commands, refer to the Enfora Enabler-IIE AT Command Set Reference EDG0208AT001.
Note: A command description that includes an asterisk (*) denotes that the GSM service
provider must enable supplementary services functionality before the command is
available.

Initialization (AT Command Interface)
In the GSM vocabulary, a call from GSM mobile to the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) is called
a "mobile-originated call" or "outgoing call". A call from the fixed network to a GSM mobile is called a
"mobile-terminated call" or "incoming call."
In the following examples, “Entry” refers to the application. The following convention describes the direction
of the data exchange:

The data exchange from the customer application to the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module is
designated as:
Entry

The data exchange from the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module to the customer application is
designated as:
Response
Note: With the exception of the +++ command (Online Escape Sequence), all commands must be
preceded by the AT attention code (or command prefix) and terminated by pressing the 
character.
In the following examples, the  and  are intentionally omitted for clarity and space.

10.1.3
Initial Response to the AT Command
After power is applied to the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module, the module performs a power-up self-test.
The self-test completes within one (1) second. When queried with the AT command, the Enfora Enabler
EDG0208 module responds with one of the following result codes:

“OK” signifies that the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module is ready, that it correctly interprets the AT
command, and that it has executed the command.

“ERROR” signifies that the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module does not understand the command or that
the command is invalid.

The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module must be in AT Command mode (please refer to section 10.3 GPRS
Packet Examples for packet mode initialization and setup) when any command is entered (with the
exception of the online escape sequence). Commands entered when the module is in On-line mode are
treated as data, and are transmitted as such to the receiving module. (i.e. If the module is in PPP or SLIP
mode, AT commands cannot be entered.)

11.0 Integration and Testing
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module has been designed to minimize the amount of time required for
integration and testing the application. By being fully certified by the appropriate bodies, the Enfora Enabler
EDG0208 module provides seamless integration into the GSM network.
The integration issues for the application can be narrowed to the utilization of the AT commands and the use
of the GSM functionality. Coverage and signal quality may be evaluated by using the RSSI commands.
Additional network information can be determined by using AT commands.
Integration of the GPRS Packet capabilities is more complicated than using AT command sequences to
initiate the connection and begin transferring data. The following Application Notes should be used to
integrate the GPRS packet capabilities:
GSM0000AN002 - Enabler-G PPP Configuration for Windows 2000

11.1
Integrating the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module
Note: Generally, all interfaces that are externally available to the end user need to be ESDconditioned and terminated in some way. Many of these interfaces should not be connected with
power applied.
At the highest level, this is done using some type of GSM test equipment (such as, Racal 6103E), a
computer, and a serial interface tester. The GSM test equipment must be able to simulate a GSM
call and measure the key parameters related to the module.
Additionally, the serial interfaces and some minimal SIM functionality can be verified by sending AT
commands to the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module.
All of these conditions need to be verified at ambient as well as extreme conditions.
As part of integration, each of the following interfaces must be verified:
Information
SIM
Recommendations
The maximum line length of the SIM interface is 25.4 cm (10 inches).
The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module takes care of the signal conditioning
As a minimum, an external application with a remote SIM will require a standard SIM
carrier.
Filter the SIM VCC signal with a 10 uf / 10 V capacitor to help with the line length.
