PTCRB Requirements Note
There cannot be any alteration to the authorized antenna system. The antenna system must be the same type
with similar in-band and out-of-ban radiation patterns and maintain the same specifications.
FCC Requirements Note
The antenna gain, including cable loss, must not exceed 3.0 dBi at 1900 MHz / 1.6 dBi at 850 MHz for mobile
operating configurations and 7.0 dBi at 1900 MHz / 2.3 dBi at 850 MHz for fixed mounted operations, as defined
in 2.1091 and 1.1307 of the rules for satisfying RF exposure compliance.
Interfaces
The Wireless MultiModem has several interfaces:
• LED function indicating operating status
•
External antenna (via SMA connector)
•
Serial and control link (via USB connector)
• Microphone and speaker (via handset jack)
• SIM card holder
LED Interface
LED Indicators
TD Transmit Data. Lit when modem is transmitting data.
RD Receive Data. Lit when modem is receiving data.
CD Carrier Detect. Lit when data connection has been established.
LS Line Status.
Continuous “on” state indicates that the wireless modem is not registered on the network.
Flashing state indicates registration on network.
Off state. Modem is off (not ready) or in download mode.
TR Terminal Ready. Commonly called “Data Terminal Ready.” This is a readiness signal from the PC.
PWR Power. Indicates presence of DC power when lit.
AT Command Reference Guides
AT commands for the GPRS USB wireless modem are published in a separate GPRS AT Commands
Reference Guide included on the MultiModem CD and posted on the Multi-Tech web site.
