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 II-G A-GPS 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 consumer-serviceable components. 2.0 Regulatory Compliance FCC 2.1 Integration Considerations and Installation Requirements The Enabler II-G A-GPS modem is designed for use in a variety of host units, "enabling" the host platform to perform wireless data communications and GPS location. However, there are certain criteria relative to integrating the modem into a host platform such as a PC, laptop, handheld or ® PocketPC , monitor and control unit, etc. that must be considered to ensure continued compliance with FCC compliance requirements. • In order to use the Enabler II-G A-GPS modem without additional FCC certification approvals, the installation must meet the following conditions: • For the transmitter to meet the MPE categorical exclusion requirements of 2.1091, the ERP must be less than 1.5 watts for personnel separation distance of at least 20 cm (7.9 in). Therefore, the maximum antenna gain cannot exceed +3.3dBi. If greater than 1.5 watts exists, then additional testing and FCC approval is required. • If used in a "portable" application such as a handheld 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: • SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) testing, with results submitted to the FCC for approval prior to selling the integrated unit. If unable to meet SAR requirements, then the host unit must be restricted to "mobile" use (see below). • Unintentional emissions, FCC Part 15; results do not have to be submitted to the FCC unless requested, although the test provides substantiation for required labeling (see below). MGL0208PB001 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide • 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. • 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 modem transmitter module FCC ID: MIVMLG0208 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: MIVMLG0208 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 MGL0208PB001 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Failure to observe this warning could produce an RF exposure condition.

Reserved for future use NO CONNECT if on-board SIM holder is used 6.4 Circuit Protection Other than the basic low level ESD protection within the module’s integrated circuits (typically 2000 V), the Enabler II-G A-GPS module 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 Ω) 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 II-G A-GPS module from electrical disturbances and excursions, which exceed the specified operating parameters. 6.5 Antenna A custom quad-band antenna can be attached via the on-board connector or soldered directly to the modem. Each antenna direct connect solder pad is 1.02 x 2.54 MM. A passive GPS antenna can also be used to connect to the on-board connector or soldered directly to the modem. MGL0208PB001 32 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide However, if the GPS antenna is more than 10 cm away from the module (a very likely scenario), one should consider using an active GPS antenna. An active antenna has an integrated low noise amplifier (LNA). Active antennas need power supplied to them. The power is usually routed the coax cable. One should also take care in selecting the active antenna. The LNA gain maybe too large and saturate the input to the GPS receiver. A LNA gain of about 15 dB should be sufficient to drive coax cables of 5 meters. A gain greater than 15dB may damage the GPS device. Please check the design to see if you need to provide external power to the active antenna. 6.5.1 Antenna Solder Pads Pads are provided to solder a cable or antenna directly to the Enabler II-G A-GPS board. MGL0208PB001 33 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 6.5.2 RF Connector The Enabler II-G A-GPS module 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. 6.5.3 GPS Antenna Connector The Enabler II-G A-GPS module utilizes an ultra Miniature Coaxial Interconnect from Sunridge (MCB-ST-00T) as the on-board GPS 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. 6.6 6.6.1 Control Connector Signal Descriptions and Functions Input Power The Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module uses a single voltage source of VCC=+3.3V to 4.5V. (The exact values of the uplink currents are shown in Tables5.3.1 GSM Operating Power and 5.3.2 GPRS Operating Power). 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 2000 μF 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. MGL0208PB001 34 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 6.6.2 Ring Indicate The Enabler II-G A-GPS 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 2 seconds 1 second RING String RING String When a Fax or 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 3 seconds RING String RING String RING String An incoming SMS can be indicated by an Unsolicited Result Code (URC) which causes the Ring line to go low for 1 second only.

If VBAK is not present in the system (intentionally or not) and RADIO_PWR/RST is active low, the RTC clock may still be powered if leakage voltage exists on VCC. Otherwise the RTC clock will loose power and be reset when VCC is restored.

It will properly provide backup power to the RTC clock. 6.6.8 Serial Interface for UART and GPS The modem provides a standard 16550 UART serial interface to the host. The data interface operates at CMOS level. The Enabler II-G A-GPS module is designed to be used like a DCE device or can also mux the serial port to share the port between serial data and GPS NMEA information. Below are descriptions of the various serial architectures used to interface with the GPS chipset integrated into the module. This serial interface data may contain 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits, even/odd/no parity bits. The baud rate may be adjusted to 75, 150, 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,19200, 38400, 57600, or 115200 bits per second. Default settings are 8 data, 1 stop, no parity, and 115200 baud. DTR may be used to force the modem into AT command mode from online data mode (See AT Command Document, command AT&D). RTS and CTS may be used for hardware handshaking. DSR is always active (connected to ground) while the modem is on. RING may be used to alert the host to a variety of incoming calls. For a minimal implementation, connect RxData and TxData to the COM port serial data lines, connect DTR and RTS to GND. The electrical characteristics for the I/O lines are the same as the General Purposes Input/Output (GPIO) lines. 6.6.9 Dedicated Serial Interface This architecture provides dedicated serial ports for exclusive processing of GPS and network data. One port would be dedicated to communication with the wireless module and the other would be dedicated to the GPS receiver. Integrators would choose the serial interface(s) that they would like to use and process data accordingly.

This configuration does allow one to debug issues with the GPRS modem in the development phase. 6.6.9.1 Single Serial Port with Debug port The implementation of a single serial port would utilize a multiplexing architecture combining both GPS and network data over a single PPP connection. The other serial port would remain a debug port, as it exists today in the current module architecture. The integrator would have to write the supporting application/driver that would reside on the target modem to handle the muxing of the network data and the GPS data.

The software complexity increases, but one gains the debug port to assist in the development process. 6.6.9.2 Single Serial Port with Debug port The implementation of a single serial port would utilize a multiplexing architecture combining both GPS and network data over a single PPP connection. The other serial port would remain a debug port, as it exists today in the current module architecture.

The software complexity increases, but one gains the debug port to assist in the development process. 6.6.10 Analog-To-Digital Input Eight general-purpose signals are provided. Each of these signals may be selected as inputs or outputs. They may be used independently as a user-specified function, or may be used to provide modem control and status signals. Several examples of modem control signals are: power shutdown command, register/deregister on network command, and transmitter disable. Several examples of modem status signals are: registration status and ready-for-power-down status to be used with power shutdown command signal.

This information consists of a microprocessor and memory installed on a plastic card. Note: The SIM is not provided with the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS 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. 6.7.1 SIM Integration for the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS Module The Enabler II-G A-GPS module default configuration does not include an on-board SIM carrier. Enfora provides a separate product SKU for the Enabler II-G A-GPS module with the integrated SIM carrier. 6.7.2 Using a Remote SIM with the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS Module The Enabler II-G A-GPS module 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 II-G A-GPS module to the remote SIM connector must not exceed 25.4 cm (10 inches).

MGL0208PB001 50 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 7.0 GSM/GPRS Modes of Operation GSM/GPRS supports many optional services and modes. The Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module supports the following GSM/GPRS services: • Circuit-switched data • Short-Message Services (SMS) • Class B GPRS Functionality • Voice communication 7.1 Enabling the Transmission Modes for the GSM/GPRS Services Each of the GSM/GPRS 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 II-G A-GPS 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-G AT Command Set Reference - GSM0102PB001MAN 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 II-G A-GPS module supports three vocoder compression algorithms for voice communication: Full-Rate (FR), Enhanced Full-Rate (EFR), and Half-rate (HR). 7.3 Circuit-Switched Data In this mode, the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS 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 II-G A-GPS module can be configured to switch automatically to Non-Transparent mode. This capability depends on the settings in the AT+CBST command. MGL0208PB001 51 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 7.4 SMS: Short Message Services • Short Message Services (SMS) is a feature-rich GSM service. The Enfora Enabler II-G AGPS module can perform the following tasks: • Sending and receiving binary messages of up to 160 characters (7-bit characters) • Sending and receiving text messages of up to 140 bytes (8-bit data) • Submitting a SMS Protocol Data Unit (PDU) to a SMSC (Short Message Service Center) and storing a copy of the PDU until either a report arrives from the network or a timer expires • Receiving a SMS PDU from a SMSC • Returning a delivery report to the network for a previously received message • Receiving a report from the network • Notifying the network when the module has sufficient memory capacity available to receive one or more SMS messages (after the module had previously rejected a message because its memory capacity was exceeded) MGL0208PB001 52 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 8.0 GPS Modes of Operation The Enabler II-G A-GPS module provides a number of GPS features that can be used in a number of different manners. The following modes of operation are supported in the module: Autonomous, Mobile Assisted, and enhanced Autonomous 8.1 Autonomous This mode of operation is when the GPS receiver operates in real-time. The receiver obtains the ephemeris data form the satellite constellation when it is able to attain a valid signal. Minimum signal strength is required in order for the receiver to accurately decode the ephemeris data. The data is transmitted via a serial port in NMEA sentences. The NMEA sentences give information like location, speed, course, and other location services depending on the NMEA sentence. This mode of operation is a mode supported as a standard within the industry. Below is an outline describing how autonomous mode works. 1. GPS receiver scans the sky for satellites in view of the GPS receiver. The amount of time for receiving data will vary depending upon view of the sky, time of last update, and other factors. 2. GPS data is received from a constellation of satellites in view of the module. The GPS is data is transmitted to the GPS receiver on the GPS chipset. The GPS chipset will then translate this information into NMEA sentence that can be streamed out of the serial port. 3. The GPS data is read out of the Enfora module by the terminal device as defined by the AT statement AT$GOPMD. The terminal device will respond to this GPS data in a predefined manner and perform certain functions on the platform device. 8.2 Mobile Assisted This mode uses a remote server to process position information. The receiver will obtain various data points like doppler, position, etc…and send the information over a data link to a server. The server will use that data in conjunction with their current information to obtain data that is sent back to the receiver. This is a mode supported as a standard within the industry. 8.3 Enhanced Autonomous Mobile-Based mode is implemented when limited data is present at the GPS receiver and data cannot be processed accurately. This condition can happen when the view of the sky is obstructed, high multi-path reflection (i.e. in a downtown area with lots of skyscrapers) or atmospheric conditions. The limited data is sent via a data connection to an A-GPS server. The A-GPS server takes this data and uses it in combination with accurate GPS data that is collected continuously. The limited data is updated with information that is more accurate. This information is then sent to the mobile device. The mobile device will be responsible for processing the location data in detail. It will also be responsible for presentation to an application and/or user. MGL0208PB001 53 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide Using this data, the device can accurately detect its position faster. In this mode, the device can accurately detect its position in low signal strength areas such as buildings. This mode will speed up Time to first fix (TTFF). Figure 2 below describes the Mobile Based mode of operation in detail. For additional information and details on the different modes of operation, see GSM????PB001MAN - Enfora Integrated GPS Module Overview. MGL0208PB001 54 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 9.0 SIM Operation 9.1 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 II-G A-GPS module that the SIM be configured for the optional services that are required for the application. 9.2 GSM Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS Module The Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS 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. 9.3 GPRS Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS Module The Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS 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 9.4 Selecting the GSM Modes of Operation When provisioning the SIM for the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module, enable the following modes of operation: • Voice calls: configure the SIM for both MO and MT service (to send and receive) MGL0208PB001 55 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide • 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 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) 10.0 Software Interface 10.1 Software Interface The application sends commands to the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module via the 60-pin I/O signal connector. These commands use the Enfora AT Command Set and/or Enfora’s Packet API. The Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module operates in one of the following modes: • Command mode: Used for configuring the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS 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 II-G A-GPS 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 II-G A-GPS module in Command mode but does not terminate the circuit-switched data call.) • IP Packet /API Mode: Used to read/write modem parameters, interrogate network information, and place and receive calls in real-time, multi-tasking mode. The Packet API mode is facilitated over a PPP connection and the packets can be constructed according to the information provided in the Enfora GSM-GPRS Family UDP-API Reference GSM0102PB002MAN. Enfora GSM-GPRS Family Modem Control Library Reference GSM0000PB006MAN provides detail of the UDP Modem Control Library that has three levels: port , messaging, and modem libraries. Each of the three levels contains one or more libraries. For example, the port libraries layer has UDP PPP Port, UDP Socket Port, and COM Port libraries. All libraries are provided as a part of the Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Module Integration Toolkit. • GPS only mode: Used for configuring the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module, for interrogating the GPS satellite network and sending NMEA data. It uses the AT command set via the serial port for communication. The AT command driver of the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module never exits the Command state, that is, it never enters the On-line mode. Although the host interface may not be able to access the AT command interpreter, it is always running and is available via the API Mode over a PPP connection and/or via the RF interface. MGL0208PB001 56 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide • In the Command state, characters that are received from the Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) are treated as AT commands by the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module. • In response to the commands received from the CPE, the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module sends characters (AT commands) to the CPE. • Various events can also trigger the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module to send characters (AT commands) to the CPE. 10.2 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-G AT Command Set Reference - GSM0102PB001MAN. MGL0208PB001 57 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 10.3 Enfora AT Command Set For a full description of the AT commands, refer to the Enfora Enabler-G AT Command Set Reference - GSM0102PB001MAN. Note: A command description that includes an *asterisk denotes that the GSM service provider must enable supplementary services functionality before the command is available. 10.4 Enfora Packet Application Programming Interface 10.4.1 UDP-API Architecture The following information provides an overview of the Enfora UDP-based API architecture.

In addition to the features already provided by the Messaging Library, the modem library maintains a modem parameter database. In order to maintain the parameter database, the modem library requires more memory than the other libraries. This makes the library unsuitable for some of the micro controller programming. However, it is a good library to use by applications in a personal computer or a PDA. It allows the programmer to develop host applications for the modem quickly. 11.0 Setup and Initialization 11.1 General Setup The GPRS modem is controlled through the Modem RS232 port on the development board. Connect a nine pin straight through serial cable from the Modem RS232 connector to the serial port on the controlling computer. Hook up power supply, connect antenna, and install SIM into modem. 11.1.1 HyperTerminal Configuration for Enabler II-G A-GPS module The following provides an example for setting up a Windows HyperTerminal session that can be used to experiment with various configurations on the Enabler II-G A-GPS module for controlling computer: MGL0208PB001 63 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide 1.

Figure 27 COM Port Settings 11.1.2 Initialization (AT Command Interface) In the GSM vocabulary, a call from GSM mobile to the PSTN 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 II-G A-GPS module is designated as: Entry • The data exchange from the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS 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. MGL0208PB001 65 Version: Preliminary – 3/31/2006 Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide In the following examples, the and are intentionally omitted for clarity and space. 11.1.3 Initial Response to the AT Command After power is applied to the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS module, the module performs a power-up self-test.
