The following information applies to the devices described in this manual. Always observe all standard and accepted safety precautions and guidelines when handling any electrical device. Save this manual: it contains important safety information and operating instructions. Do not expose the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 product to open flames. Ensure that liquids do not spill into the devices. Do not attempt to disassemble the product; doing so will void the warranty. With the exception of the Subscriber Identification Module (SIM), this product does not contain consumerserviceable components. 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. EDG0208IG001 Page 1 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 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. OR Contains 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. Any antenna used with the modem must be approved by the FCC or as a Class II Permissive Change (including MPEL or SAR data as applicable). The "professional installation" provision of FCC Part 15.203 does not apply. The transmitter and antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Violation of this would allow a user to plug another transmitter in to the product and potentially create an RF exposure condition. WARNING The transmitter and antenna must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

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. EDG0208IG001 Page 8 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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. Figure 1 - Example of good ground plane for GSM modules EDG0208IG001 Page 9 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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. EDG0208IG001 Page 10 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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. EDG0208IG001 Page 11 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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.

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. 6.6 Antenna The Enabler EDG0208 utilizes an ultra Miniature Coaxial Interconnect from Sunridge (MCB-ST-00T) as the on-board antenna connector. A compatible mating connector is the Sunridge MCB2-xx-xx-xxx-x series component. The cable assembly is made to order. Maximum stack height of cable connector and PCB connector is 2.0 mm. EDG0208IG001 Page 28 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 6.7 Control Connector Signal Descriptions and Functions 6.7.1 Input Power The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module uses a single voltage source of VCC=+3.3V to 4.5V.

The VCC lines (pins 1 to 6) should be connected on the application board. The uplink burst will cause strong ripple on the voltage lines and should be effectively filtered. It is recommended 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. EDG0208IG001 Page 29 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 6.7.2 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. Ring 2 seconds 1 second RING String 2 seconds 1 second RING String When a data call is received, Ring goes low and will remain low. Every 3 seconds a ring string is generated and sent over the Receive (Data Out) (Rx) line. Ring 3 seconds RING String 3 seconds RING String RING String An incoming SMS can be indicated by an Unsolicited Result Code (URC) causing the Ring line to go low for 1 second only. Using the AT+CNMI command, the Enabler EDG0208 can be configured to send or not to send URCs upon the receipt of SMS. See Enfora Enabler-IIIE AT Command Set Reference EDG0208AT001.

This input has a “weak pull-down” resistor internal to the module and can be left open-circuit or grounded if it is not going to be used. To initiate a reset, provide a high-pulse of at least 50 ms duration. Radio Power/Reset” should not be used as a routine start or wake-up function. “Module Reset” should only be attempted when the modem does not respond to a Power Control Signal command.

This is a hardware-controlled pin on power-up. It must be grounded momentarily or continuously to start the modem. Subsequent signals to this pin (active high-to-low transition) will cycle power to the module. When the modem is OFF, a high-to-low pulse of > 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.

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).

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.

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: GPRS Packet Connectivity (MO and MT) with Both Dynamic and Static IP option; GPRS SMS (MO and MT): uses the IP (Dynamic or Static) set by the operator; Multiple APN Setting; Quality of Service Options; Multi-slot 10 Class of Service. 8.4 EGPRS Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module supports the following EGPRS (modes of operation) that must be enabled by the operator: EGPRS Packet Connectivity (MO and MT) with Both Dynamic and Static IP option; EGPRS SMS (MO and MT): uses the IP (Dynamic or Static) set by the operator; Multiple APN Setting; Quality of Service Options; EDG0208IG001 Page 40 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft Multi-slot 10 Class of Service. 8.5 Selecting the Modes of Operation When provisioning the SIM for the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module, enable the following modes of operation: Voice calls: configure the SIM for both MO and MT service (to send and receive); SMS: configure the SIM either for MT alone (to receive) or for both MO and MT (to send and receive); Circuit Switched Data: configure the SIM either for MO alone (to send) or for both MO and MT (to send and receive). Voice MO/MT MO/MT MO/MT SMS MT MO/MT MO/MT EDG0208IG001 CS Data MO MO MO/MT GPRS Function Voice calls, receive SMS, make data calls Voice calls, receive / send SMS, make data calls Voice calls, receive / send SMS, make / receive data calls (requires an additional data telephone number) Page 41 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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. EDG0208IG001 Page 42 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 10.0 Setup and Initialization 10.1 General Setup The data modem is controlled through the Modem RS232 port on the development board. Connect a ninepin straight through serial cable from the Modem RS232 connector to the serial port on the controlling computer. Hook up the power supply, connect the antenna, and install the SIM into the modem. 10.1.1 HyperTerminal Configuration for Enabler EDG0208 The following provides an example for setting up a Windows HyperTerminal session that can be used to experiment with various configurations on the Enabler EDG0208 for controlling computer: 1. Select the connection interface, Direct to Com 1 (or whatever port is the serial port). Figure 20 HyperTerminal Definition EDG0208IG001 Page 43 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 2. Configure the COM port as displayed below. Figure 21 COM Port Settings 10.1.2 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. EDG0208IG001 Page 44 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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. Entry Response AT OK Command valid: module is ready 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.) 10.1.4 Sending an Initialization String to the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module The following example provides the sample AT commands and responses for the following initialization tasks: Reset the module to the factory defaults; Disable character echo; Transmit Result Codes; Set the module to Verbose mode (to display result codes as words); Set the DCD to match the state of remote modem; Ignore the DTR. Entry Response Entry Response 10.1.5 AT&FE0Q0V1&C1&d0 OK ATSO=1 OK Initialization string Command is valid Auto answer on 1st ring Command is valid Setting Up the Communication Mode for the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 Module The following example sequence provides the AT command and response for setting the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module for full phone functionality, automated operator selection, 9600 baud, non-transparent mode.

The required setup and configuration process is contained in Enfora Application Notes GSM0000AN001 - Enabler-G PPP Configuration for Windows 98 and GSM0000AN002 - EnablerG PPP Configuration for Windows 2000. EDG0208IG001 Page 46 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 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 GSM0000AN008 - Enabler-G PPP Configuration for Windows XP GSM0000AN010 - Enabler-G PPP Configuration for PocketPC 2002 GSM0000AN005 - Enabler-G Automated Network Connection Configuration and Use 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. Primary and secondary serial Interfaces The Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module uses a 3 V digital interface. The RS-232 signals must be level-shifted to get standard levels. These signals must be ESDprotected. Reset Interface Audio/Microphone Interface Resets the Enfora Enabler EDG0208 module when tied low.

The following statement must be included in the user manual for such products: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. Equipment intended for use in a residential environment (not-withstanding use in commercial, industrial or business environments) is designated as Class B. The Enfora Enabler IIE module has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device and can be integrated into equipment or applications intended for use in residential environments. The following statement must be included in the user manual for such products: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. 11.3.7 Intentional Radiators, Part 22 & 24 Products incorporating the Enfora Enabler IIE transceiver operate as Personal Communications Services (PCS) devices under the authority of Part 22 & Part 24, Subpart E—Broadband PCS, of the FCC Rules and Regulations. All such transmitters must be authorized by the FCC through its Certification process, as detailed in Part 2, Subpart J - Equipment Authorization Procedures. Through the Certification process, the FCC verifies that the product complies with all applicable regulatory and technical requirements, including those that address human exposure to radio frequency radiation. In general, radio frequency transmitters cannot be sold or operated in the US prior to FCC approval. EDG0208IG001 Page 52 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft 11.3.8 Instructions to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) To comply with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, operation of an FCC-regulated transmitter may not result in human exposure to radio frequency radiation in excess of the applicable health and safety guidelines established by the FCC. Further information on RF exposure issues may be found in the FCC's Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) Bulletin Number 65, "Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields" and Supplement C, "Additional Information for Evaluating Compliance of Mobile and Portable devices with FCC Limits for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Emissions.” Both of these documents are available via the Internet at the OET web site: http://www.fcc.gov/oet The Enfora Enabler IIE products are GSM radio transceivers, which operate under the authority of 47 CFR Part 24, Subpart E and Part 22 of the FCC Rules and Regulations. When installed and operated in accordance with the instructions provided in this manual, these devices comply with current FCC regulations regarding human exposure to radio frequency radiation. The following installation and operation restrictions apply to all Enfora Enabler IIE products: This device may only be used in fixed and mobile applications. Portable applications, as defined by the FCC, are prohibited. The use of this device for desktop and other applications where the antenna can easily be relocated are considered by the FCC to be mobile applications. A separation distance of at least 20 cm (7.87 inches) between the antenna and the body of the user and other persons must be maintained at all times End products must provide instructions to ensure compliance with radio frequency radiation exposure requirements. A warning label visible to all persons exposed to the antenna and identical to that described in this manual must be displayed on or next to the antenna. Separate FCC approval for RF exposure compliance is required for end products that do not meet these conditions. EDG0208IG001 Page 53 Rev. 1.03 –4/19/07 Integration Guide Draft Note: Additional care must be taken by the installer and/or user of the Enfora Enabler IIE products to ensure proper antenna selection and installation. Adherence to the above conditions is necessary to comply with FCC requirements for safe operation regarding exposure to RF radiation. Depending upon the application and type of product into which the Enfora Enabler IIE module has been incorporated, specific OEM actions and responsibilities required to meet these conditions vary. However, in all cases the primary concern is to ensure compliance with current FCC guidelines and regulations that limit human exposure to radio frequency radiation. Definitions For the purpose of determining compliance with current FCC rules addressing human exposure to radio frequency radiation, the FCC has established the following three categories of transmitting devices: EDG0208IG001 Portable Devices – devices where the antenna is located within 20 cm (7.87 inches) of any person, including the user, if applicable. Portable devices operating under the authority of Part 22 or 24 (broadband PCS) are limited to a maximum of 2 W EIRP. Mobile Devices – devices designed to be used in other than fixed locations and generally such that the antenna is located at a minimum of 20 cm (7.87 inches) from any person, including the user, if applicable.
