GSM M1 Module, English: A24859-N4000-A100-1-7677

Installation / startup

26.2.96

Correct operation of the M1 in send mode cannot be guaranteed if input voltages fall
below 8 V.

When input voltages exceed 32 V, the supply voltage is disconnected in order to pro-
tect the electronic components from an overvoltage.

Input voltages >100 V destroy the module.

When installed, the M1 must be protected by a medium time-lag fuse with a nominal
value of 1A or a fast fuse with a nominal value of 1.6 A. For vehicle installation the M1
must be directly connected to the battery.

Important:

Do not connect the ground cable to the power supply, since this could result in a short
circuit via the

antenna

cable.

In order to control the GSM Module M1 and transfer data via the serial interface (COM
port), the interface parameters must be set.

The parameters settings are as follows:

COM port:

1-4, depending on which one the M1 was connected to

Baud rate:

2400 - 19200 baud, autobauding
