Using a communication software such as HyperTerminal, enter:    AT  4. When communications have been established, COMPACT1.0 will respond with an “OK”, which is displayed in the HyperTerminal window.       If communications cannot be established with COMPACT1.0, do the following:     Check the RS-232 connection between the application (DTE) and COMPACT1.0 (DCE).  Check the configuration of the COM port used on the DTE.    Refer to the table below for other AT commands that can be used after getting COMPACT1.0 started.    Table 26.  Basic AT Commands for COMPACT1.0
        Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines     High Confidential       35 / 63   AT Command  Description  AT+CGMI To check if the serial link is OK. COMPACT1.0 will respond with "Remo Wireless" when it is OK.   AT Command  Description AT+CPIN=xxxx To enter a PIN code, xxxx (if activated). AT+CSQ To verify the received signal strength. AT+CREG? To verify the registration of COMPACT1.0 on the network. ATD<phone number> To initiate a GSM call. ATH To hang up (end of GSM call).   For  further  information about  these  AT  commands and their  associated  parameters, refer to  document  [2]  AT  Commands  Interface  Guide  for  Open  AT  Application Framework Firmware 7.47.       5.3. Verifying the Received Signal Strength    COMPACT1.0 only establishes a call if the received signal strength is strong enough. Using communication software such as HyperTerminal, enter AT+CSQ to check the received signal strength. The response returned will follow the format +CSQ: <rssi>,<ber>.    where:  <rssi> = received signal strength indication, and <ber> = channel bit error rate. Refer to the table below for the description of the <rssi> values returned.    Table 27.  <RSSI> Value Description    <rssi> Value  Description 0 – 10 Received signal strength is insufficient. 11 – 31 Received signal strength is sufficient.

Safety Recommendations (for Information Only)    For the efficient and safe operation of your GSM device, please read the following information carefully.    12.1.RF Safety 12.1.1. General    Your GSM terminal is based on the GSM standard for cellular technology. The GSM standard is spread all over the world. It covers Europe, Asia and some parts of
        Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines     High Confidential       59 / 63  America and Africa. This is the most used telecommunication standard.    Your GSM terminal is actually a low power radio transmitter and receiver. It sends out and receives radio frequency energy. When you use your GSM application, the cellular system which handles your calls controls both the radio frequency and the power level of your cellular modem.       12.1.2. Exposure to RF Energy There has been some public concern about possible health effects from using GSM terminals. Although research on health effects from RF energy has focused on the current RF technology for many years, scientists have begun research regarding newer radio technologies, such as GSM. After existing research had been reviewed, and after compliance to all applicable safety standards had been tested, it has been concluded that the product was fit for use. If you are concerned about exposure to RF energy there are things you can do to minimize exposure. Obviously, limiting the duration of your calls will reduce your exposure to RF energy. In addition, you can reduce RF exposure by operating your cellular terminal efficiently by following the guidelines below.       12.1.3. Efficient Terminal Operation For your GSM terminal to operate at the lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory call quality:    If your terminal has an extendible antenna, extend it fully. Some models allow you to place a call with the antenna retracted. However, your GSM terminal operates more efficiently with the antenna fully extended. Do not hold the antenna when the terminal is « IN USE ».  Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the modem to operate at a higher power level than needed.    12.1.4. Antenna Care and Replacement
        Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines     High Confidential       60 / 63  Do not use the GSM terminal with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Replace a damaged antenna immediately. Consult your manual to see if you may change the antenna yourself. If so, use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Otherwise, have your antenna repaired by a qualified technician.    Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the terminal and may contravene local RF emission regulations or invalidate type approval.     12.2. General Safety 12.2.1. Driving Check the laws and the regulations regarding the use of cellular devices in the area where you have to drive as you always have to comply with them. When using your GSM terminal while driving, please:    give full attention to driving,  pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.  12.2.2. Electronic Devices Most electronic equipment, for example in hospitals and motor vehicles, is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy may affect some improperly shielded electronic equipment.    12.2.3. Vehicle Electronic Equipment Check your vehicle manufacturer representative to determine if any on-board electronic equipment is adequately shielded from RF energy.    12.2.4. Medical Electronic Equipment Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers,
        Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines     High Confidential       61 / 63  hearing aids, etc...) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.    Turn your terminal OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using RF monitoring equipment. 12.2.5. Aircraft Turn your terminal OFF before boarding any aircraft.     Use it on the ground only with crew permission.  Do not use it in the air. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your terminal while the aircraft is on the ground. To prevent interference with cellular systems, local RF regulations prohibit using your modem while airborne.    12.2.6. Children Do not allow children to play with your GSM terminal. It is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for example). Children could damage the modem, or make calls that increase your modem bills.    12.2.7. Blasting Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a « blasting area » or in areas posted: « turn off two-way radio ».  Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.    12.2.8. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn your terminal OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is
        Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines     High Confidential       62 / 63  rare,  but  your  application or  its accessories  could generate  sparks.  Sparks  in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injuries or even death.    Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below decks on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.    Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle which contains your terminal or accessories.    Before using your terminal in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and safety regulations of the country in which the vehicle is to be used.
