Make sure that an antenna is connected. In order to extract or to insert the Micro SIM card, it is necessary to press the SIM holder ejector with a sharp element (a pen for example). If this sequence is not respected, the SIM holder could be damaged. Wavecom WMOD2B Modem INSTALLATION/START-UP For mounting the modem, bind to the body the holding bridles according to the schema below: 2.3 Electrical characteristics 2.3.1 Switching the GSM modem on/off The device is permanently powered (when connected to the power supply). INSTALLATION/START-UP 2.3.2 Voltage range Voltage range : GND 5 to 32V DC 0V 2.3.3 Overvoltage/undervoltage Correct operation of the Wavecom WMOD2B modem in communication mode is not guaranteed if input voltage fall below 5V. The modem is protected against voltage over 32V. When input voltages exceed 32V, the supply voltage is disconnected in order to protect the electronic components from an overvoltage. TWO CASES ARE POSSIBLE: - IF THE OVERVOLTAGE IS CONTINUOUS, THE PROTECTION IS GUARANTEED BY THE FUSE. - IN THE CASE OF TRANSIENT PEAKS, THE MODEM GUARANTEES ITS OWN PROTECTION.

Wavecom WMOD2B Modem 13 TROUBLESHOOTING Error code ❑ Is the modem receiving an incoming call or already in communication? ➫ With some software versions, you must release any incoming or active call (with ATH) before being able to make an outgoing call. 5.3 The modem always returns «No carrier» when trying to issue a communication TROUBLESHOOTING A) After a failed attempt (“no carrier”), issue AT+CEER to have extended Error code Error code Diagnostic Hint 16 17 18 19 21 22 31 Unallocated phone number Normal call clearing User busy No user responding User alerting, no answer Call rejected Number changed Normal, unspecified 50 Requested facility not subscribed 68 252 253 3, 6, 8, 29, 34, 38, 41, 42, 43, 44, 47, 49, 57, 58, 63, 65, 69, 70, 79, 254 ACM equal or greater than ACMmax Call barring on outgoing calls Call barring on incoming calls Network causes For all other codes, and/or details, see AT commands manual. Wavecom WMOD2B Modem 14 Check your subscription (data subscription available?) Credit of your pre-paid SIM card expired See AT commands manual for further details or call network provider B) Additional hints ❑ Is the antenna properly connected? Use an antenna with the following features: ➫ Frequency range : dual-band GSM 900/1800 or 900/1900 MHz. ➫ Impedance : 50 Ohms. ➫ Gain (antenna + cable) : 0dBi. ➫ VSWR (antenna + cable) : -10dB. AT+CSQ response (RSSI) Signal quality 11 to 31 ➞ Should be sufficient* 0 to 10 and +99 ➞ Could be insufficient* * based on general observations. ❑ The modem always returns «No carrier» when trying to issue a voice communication? ➫ Insure the character «semicolon» is present straight after the phone number on the AT-Command ATD######; ❑ The ➫ ➫ ➫ ➫ 5.4 modem always returns «No carrier» when trying to issue a data communication? Insure the selected bearer type is supported by the called party. Then, insure the selected bearer type is supported by the Network. If no success, try bearer selection type: AT+CBST=0,0,3. Insure the SIM Card is available for Data/Fax calls. Further questions For further troubleshooting information, please check our Frequently Asked Questions on www.wavecom.com (customer support section). Wavecom WMOD2B Modem 15 TROUBLESHOOTING ❑ Is the received signal strong enough? ➫ With the AT-Command AT+CSQ check that the received signal (1st parameter of the response) is strong enough to be able to establish a call. REFERENCE ACCESSORIES - NOTES ON SAFETY 6. REFERENCE ACCESSORIES The following accessories have been qualified for the WMOD2B modem: ❑ Dual-band antenna : ALLGON 1140.26 ❑ Antenna adaptor : SMA/FME adaptor from PROCOM ❑ Power adaptor (Europe): EGSTON N2 EFSW 12V 1A mounted with micro-fit connector from MOLEX. 7. NOTES ON SAFETY 7.1 General Safety The modem is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile applications. “Fixed” means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. “Mobile” means that the device is designed to be used in other than fixed locations and generally in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) is normally maintained between the transmitter’s antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The Modem is not designed for a intended to be used in portable applications (within 20 cm of the body of the user) and such uses are strictly prohibited. It is important to follow any special regulations regarding the use of radio equipment due in particular to the possibility of radio frequency, RF, interference. Please follow the safety advice given below carefully. ❑ Switch OFF your GSM Modem when in an aircraft.
