3. Interfaces
This module offers following interfaces to communicate with module. Except UART console, before those
USB emulated ports could be used, it requires to setup the Qaulcomm’s usb driver into your windows PC
at first.
After driver installation is finished, device manager will show below USB emulated COM ports.
3.1 UART port
The UART port is Linux console port, where users could communicate with Linux via shell command. For
current laptops, there is no external COM port connector. Recommend to use an usb-to-uart cable to
connect with the UART port. Then it is required to install the corresponding driver in advance. After
connecting with the cable, it should be able to see the COM port in device manager. For example, COM18
is found for usb-to-uart com port in Windows Device Manager in below figure.
Any terminal emulated tool can be used to communicate with Linux via this port. Putty is an open source
terminal emulator to be an example in following figure.

3.2 Android ADB interface
If USB driver is installed successfully, the interface is available as below figure. The functionalities of this
interface like UART port.
It‘s required to install Android USB driver on PC/Windows to use adb tool. Adb tool provides an easy way
for PC side to push Linux applications to run over the module. Command “adb devices” is often the first
command to detect if any module connected with the adb link. And command “adb shell” could start a
Linux shell to operate on module’s Linux system. Please refer to following figure.

3.3 Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 9025 (COM port)
This port is created for modem debugging purpose and used by Qualcomm PC tools to communicate with
the module. Qualcomm’s tool is protected by Qualcomm License.
3.4 Qualcomm HS-USB WWAN Adapter 9025
This port is created as a virtual network interface which could be used by PC to connect with Internet.

4. Federal Communication Commission Interference
Statement
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.
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 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 technician for help.
FCC Caution:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.

Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator &
your body.
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and
users, and the maximum antenna gain allowed for use with this device is +2.0 dBi.
2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM
integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements
required with this module installed.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location
with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot
be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for
re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
End Product Labeling:
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed such that
20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be labeled in a
visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: NKR-LMA18Q7. The grantee's FCC ID can be used
only when all FCC compliance requirements are met.
Manual Information To the End User:
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or
remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module. The end user
manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.

Appendix I
Environmental Setup
1. Windows 7 x64
The environment setup was tested on Windows 7 x64 successfully.
2. Install Android SDK for adb, fastboot and USB driver
To install the Android SDK platform and USB driver components on a Windows
machine:
Go to http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html.
Follow the instructions for installing the SDK and USB driver.
Right-click My Computer, select Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables, and
set the path to include the“C:\Program Files
(x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools”if you installed Android SDK by using
default path.
Now the “Windows Devices Managers” looks like the below because there is no QTI
device VPD/PID in default installed USB driver.
