Regulatory Information
Statement
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, use, service or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating the EM.
Manufacturers of the cellular terminal devices are advised to convey the following safety information to users and operating personnel and to incorporate these guidelines into all safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the product.
Sierra Wireless assumes no liability for customer failure to comply with these precautions.
1.
The EM must be operated at the voltages described in this technical documentation.
2.
The EM must not be mechanically or electrically changed.
Use of the connectors should follow the guidance of this technical documentation.
3.
The EM is designed to meet the EMC requirements of 47 CFR Part 2 and Part 15.
4.
When integrating the EM into a system, Sierra Wireless recommends testing the system to OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C edition 97 ‐ 01.
Requirements
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires application for certification of digital devices in accordance with CFR Title 47, Part 2 and Part 15.
This includes electromagnetic susceptibility testing.
As the EM is not a stand ‐ alone transceiver but is an integrated module, the EM cannot be tested by itself for EMC/EMI certification.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation of the EM 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.
Your mobile device is a low power radio transmitter and receiver.
While ON, it receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
The design of this module complies with the FCC guidelines and applicable standards.
WARNING: Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the EM, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the EM with a damaged antenna.
Please contact your local authorized dealer for antenna replacement.
Safety
User operation requirements
The antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co ‐ located or operating in conjunction with any other antennas or transmitters.
A person or object within 8 inches (20 centimeters) of the antenna could impair call quality
P AG E 7
and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than necessary and expose that person to RF energy in excess of that established by the FCC RF
Exposure Guidelines.
!
IMPORTANT !: The UDK must be installed with a minimum separation distance of 20 cm or more between the antenna and persons to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements
for mobile transmitting devices.
The transmitter effective radiated power must be less than 1.5
Watts ERP, 2.0
Watts or
33.0
dBm EIRP.
This requires that the combination of antenna gain and feed line loss does not exceed 6.0
dBi (Conducted max power + cable loss + Antenna gain).
Interfaces
The Universal Development Kit consists of two printed circuit boards, a main board and a daughter card.
The main board contains the interfaces and development features that are common to multiple EM types.
The daughter card is designed to adapt a given EM type to the main board.
The following table describes the interfaces and development features (main board only) available on the Universal Development Kit.

This is to identify the physical COM ports and should not be confused with the COM port number assigned by Windows.
Powering the Development Kit
There are two options for powering the development kit, using an AC “wall ‐ cube” or DC power from an external power supply.
AC wall cube power
When using the AC “wall ‐ cube”, the DC output jack from the wall ‐ cube connects to the “DC Input” jack on the development kit, CN5.
If the “wall ‐ cube” supplied with the Dev Platform is not suitable, another wall ‐ cube may be used so long as it has a 5V output rated for at least 2 Amps with the jack barrel exterior grounded and 5V on the barrel interior.
When using the UDK in the packaged configuration, Switch SW2 ‐ 1 must be in the OFF position, as this is in parallel with the box ‐ mounted power switch.
Turning SW2 ‐ 1 ON over ‐ rides the external switch.

When using the wall cube input, there are 2 settings for battery voltage.
SW3 ‐ 8 is closed to set the voltage to a nominal value (~3.9
V).
This is the default setting, and should be used in most cases.
When open, the voltage can be adjusted using
R394 for testing low ‐ or high ‐ battery voltage conditions.
Adjustment ranges between 3.0
V ~ 4.5
V, as shown in
To adjust the VBATT voltage, measure at TP17 & TP18 and adjust R394.
Note that SW3 ‐ 8 must be OFF in order to adjust VBATT voltage according to the table.
Table 4 ‐ VBATT voltage adjustment

VBATT Voltage
~3.9V
DC power
If using a DC power source without a jack connector, the DC voltage must be between 3.6
V and 4.2
V and rated for at least 2 amps.
The DC voltage must be connected to the development kit on TP17 (VBATT) and ground must be connected on TP18.
In this configuration, SW2 ‐ 1 must be turned OFF.
RF Connection
The boxed configuration connects to a CDMA call box or other RF test equipment via the external SMA connector.
For the bench configuration, there are two options.
1.
Use the SMA connector at the end of the daughter card.
This provides the most commonly available connector type, so no special RF adapters are required.
2.
Direct connection.
The EM’s RF connector provides minimal RF losses, but requires a special RF adapter.
The adapter type depends on the EM model is supplied with your UDK.
Both configurations are shown below, with Option 1 shown in blue and Option 2 in violet .

Development Kit Features
Introduction
The development kit includes a number of switches for various controls and configuration options.
This section discusses these switches, LED indicators and the various development kit headers and connectors.
Modes of operation
The development kit supports four modes of operation: standalone mode, host development mode, extender mode and CEPC mode.
In all modes of operation, the embedded module is mounted on the development kit daughter card, which is specifically designed for a given EM model.
•
Standalone mode allows for operation of the module independent of the target host system.
The interface protocol is forced to “DM” protocol, allowing communication with the lowest ‐ level development tools.
•
Host Development mode also allows the module to operate independently of the target host system, however the protocol is compatible with the target host device.
•
Extender mode assists with hardware and software integration of the module into the target host system.
•
CEPC mode allows a specially configured PC to control host ‐ modem handshaking signals and power control during early stages of Windows
CE development.
Each mode of operation is required to satisfy the interface requirements of the
EM model being used.
See “ Embedded Module Hardware Integration Guide ”for details on host ‐ modem handshaking.
By enabling the Module Wake DIP Switch
SW2 ‐ 6 (see
SW2 – Digital control DIP switch),
the UDK asserts the necessary signals to keep the EM communicating with the host platform.
Please see the tables under heading
SW2 – Digital control DIP switch for
the typical switch settings for each mode.
Standalone mode
Standalone mode is intended for product evaluation and early development independent of the target host system.
In standalone mode, a PC or other host can communicate with the development kit via serial ports.
Use the same serial port configuration described later in this document.
Standalone mode also supports audio test capability via a 2.5
mm headset jack and RJ ‐ 11 handset jack.
To set the development kit for standalone mode, Switches SW2.6
and SW2.7
must be turned ON before resetting the module (via SW1).
It is recommended to use the default switch settings as shown under
Typical DIP switch settings on
page
D E V E L O P M E N T K I T F E AT U R E S
Setting SW2.6
and SW2.7
for Standalone mode and resetting the module, forces the serial interface to use the “DM” protocol which is compatible with the low ‐ level debug tools.
This is true for modules using either CnS or HI protocols.
See
for an example of standalone operation for the Dual UART configuration.

Host Development mode
Host Development mode is intended for host protocol development independent of the target host system.
In Host Development mode, a PC or other host can communicate with the development kit via serial ports.
Use the same serial port configuration described later in this document.
Host Development mode also supports audio test capability via a 2.5
mm headset jack and RJ ‐ 11 handset jack.
To set the development kit for Host Development mode, Switches SW2.7
must be turned OFF before resetting the module (via SW1).
IMPORTANT!
Switch SW2.6
can be turned either ON or OFF during reset, but must be turned OFF for the module to fully power down at any time!

Operating Mode
The connection diagram is the same as that shown for Standalone Mode.
The table below shows the effect of switches SW2 ‐ 6 and SW2 ‐ 7 following a module reset.
The states shown in this table are valid only when handshaking is enabled.

CnS or HI Protocol; communication channel follows the state of
MODULE_WAKE
Extender Mode
In extender mode, a blank “EM Pod” is installed in the target host in place of the
EM.
This “dummy” module provides a flex cable connection to the development kit, but no EM circuitry.
In this arrangement, the EM on the development kit is powered and controlled by the target host.
This mode of operation allows for probing a number of the signals on the module host interface connector.
Additionally the serial ports can be configured to allow monitoring of RX and TX communication directions for both ports using a serial port analyzer.
Two control switch changes (from standalone / host development modes) are required to support extender mode.
The development kit main board will release the required control/handshaking signals when the flex cable is detected, depending on the position of the Module Wake & Host Status switches.
Analog switches requiring setup are for battery connection and monitoring.
These options are shown in the following table:

A diagram showing Extender mode interconnection is shown below.
This example shows a dual ‐ UART configuration.
Extender mode in its most basic form simply routes signals between the host and EM via a CPLD.
Note that TxD always originates from the Host (DTE), and RxD originates from the EM (DCE).
Signal directions are indicated in the diagram.
D E V E L O P M E N T K I T F E AT U R E S
Certain EM models bring one or more Auxiliary Analog ‐ to ‐ digital inputs numbered (0...) out to the host connector.
AUXV0 is reserved for measuring battery voltage, and AUXV1, AUXV2, etc.
can be connected for general use.
Supported AUXVn signal pins are defined in the EM Reference Guides.

CEPC mode
CEPC is a specially configured PC, running Windows CE on PC platform
(CEPC).
The PC’s parallel port directly interfaces to the Universal Dev Kit to perform power control and signaling functions.
Signals used for this interface conform to the Host ‐ Modem Handshaking Specification Rev 3.7
.
Similar to Extender Mode, the UDK main board will release the required control/handshaking signals when the parallel cable is detected, depending on the position of the Module Wake and Host Status switches (refer to the table below).

D E V E L O P M E N T K I T F E AT U R E S
Two CEPC functions are typically developed independently – power control and host ‐ modem handshaking.
The Module Wake switch (SW2 ‐ 6) should be turned
ON while Host ‐ Modem Handshaking is not being controlled by the CEPC.
This
will allow proper debug of the Power Control function.
LED Indicators
D10 – 10-segment LED
The Universal Development Kit supports a 10 ‐ segment LED bar to display digital signal status, plus 2 power/status indicators.
Each segment of the 10 ‐ segment display is related to an IO signal as shown in the table below.
The LED lights up when the signal is in the ACTIVE state; and off when the signal is in the INACTIVE state.
Two maps are available for a given EM model.
The primary LED map is enabled by default, and is used for host ‐ modem handshaking signal states and selected
UART1 and UART2 signals.
The primary LED map for most embedded modules is shown below:

Some EM models also support full UART1 signal status using a DIP switch on their Daughter Card.
This places TxD1, RTS1/, RxD1, and CTS1/ onto Positions
1~4, respectively.
Positions 5~10 remain per the above table.
Refer to the
Reference Guide for your EM model for more details.
The secondary LED map for most embedded modules supports XIM development.
To use this LED map, MIO19 must be pulled high (see CN12.3
details in
CN12 ‐ MIO (Module Input/Output) signal test points on
page
Note that a given EM model supports only one XIM interface, the other will default to a UART interface.
For example EM3420 uses UART3 for the RUIM interface, so in the LED map below, UART2 signals will apply to positions 7~10.

Other combinations of LED signaling can be assigned for specific development tasks or EM interface capabilities via CPLD, as required.
These assignments may vary between EM models; see the Reference Guide for your specific module.
NOTE: The 10 segment LED is also used to display the CPLD code version, when the daughter card is removed.
The LED Enable switch must be turned OFF to view this code.
The code version is displayed as a binary number, with LED D13.1
being the LSB.
D11 – Board power LED
D11 is the Board Power indicator, and displays GREEN when the UDK main board is powered on.
D12 – Module power LED
D12 is the Module Power indicator, which displays GREEN or RED when the
Module is powered on.
The LED is turned OFF when the Module power control is OFF (via the UDK).
This combination of indication is valid for standalone mode, Extender Mode or CEPC, according to the table below.

Serial Interfaces
UART (1~3) - DE9
Used to access the EM UARTs, RS ‐ 232 compatible up to 8 ‐ wire interface
(UART1), 2 ‐ or 4 ‐ wire interface (UART2 & UART3).
RTS/CTS functionality is optional for UART2 & UART3.
UART1 contains all flow control signals, and is used primarily as the data port (i.e.
AT command interface) for UART ‐ only implementations.
It may be necessary to adjust the EM data port UART during development, as the default data rate is 230 kbps.
Most PC’s do not support more than 115 kbps without a specialized serial port adapter (available as Sierra Wireless accessory).
Scripts are provided on the CD ‐ ROM to configure UART1 for 115 kbps or 230 kbps.
UART signals
Signals from the module connector to this DE9 will be level shifted using an RS ‐
232 transceiver.

the UART2 connector monitors RxD2 (signals from EM Æ host), and
TxD2 monitors signals from the host Æ EM.
It is also possible to monitor both directions of UART1 in this configuration, where the UART1 connector monitors RxD1 (signals from EM Æ host), and TxD1 monitors signals from the host Æ EM.

XIM interface
Some embedded modules can support XIM on either UART2 or UART3.
When the EM firmware is configured for XIM, the associated UART function is not available.
DIP switch settings are used to enable XIM.
Select XIM for UART2 or UART3 pinouts according to the table below.
Note that the XIM selection, when enabled, overrides
for the selected UART.
For example, if UART2 is enabled in
and XIM is enabled with UART2 selected in
, then
behaves as if UART2 is NOT selected.
Table 15 ‐ XIM switch settings
SW2-10 setting
SW2-9 setting
XIM configuration
OFF X XIM
ON OFF XIM enabled on UART2
Note that the detection of an XIM card is configurable, and should be determined during the design of the Host/EM interface.
Typically, an available MIO is used in a level ‐ triggered interrupt or polled mode.
Any required detection circuitry is a function of the Host board design.
As shown in
detection mechanism for the UDK is a contact that closes between pins 4 & 8 when the XIM card is inserted with the CN25 latch connector closed.
The XIM_DET_POL signal is the detection polarity, which is set on the EM daughter card.
If the MIO used for XIM_DET contains a pull ‐ down element, then the signal XIM_DET_POL would be tied high, and vice ‐ versa.

When using a module with the USB interface, it may not be possible to use certain interface combinations.
For example, the MSM6050’s UART3 pins interface with the USB transceiver, so UART3 cannot be used.
In this case, SW2 ‐ 5
UART3 must be in the OFF position to avoid contention.
See the Reference
Guide for your Embedded Module for details on which interface combinations are not possible.
The UDK uses MIO(1) and MIO(2) to route the signals USB+ and USB ‐ , respectively.
These MIO signals are not available for general use in this case.
Switches
SW2 – Digital control DIP switch
DIP switch SW2 is used for digital control functions.
Certain functions are over ‐ ridden in Extender Mode and/or CEPC Mode, meaning that connection of a
CEPC or Extender cable are automatically detected, so the switch setting does not need to be changed.
These functions are indicated in the table below, in the far right columns.

Table 18 ‐ Switch 2 (SW2) settings
Function
MODULE_ON– This switch is used to turn the module on. Turning the switch to OFF position turns modem OFF. Turning switch to ON position turns modem ON. This switch is only used in standalone mode to control modem power state. In the extender and CEPC modes this switch position is overridden in the CPLD.
Battery Enable – Enables the barrel jack LDO regulator / Battery supply, which powers up the Universal Dev Kit board. Turn this switch ON to use the wall cube input to supply the EM. Turn this switch OFF if using
DC Power at the battery terminals.
UART1 Select – Turn this switch ON to enable UART1 communications. This enables both the RS-232 transmitter and receiver for UART1. This switch setting is ignored when using Extender Mode, where only monitoring of RS-232 signals is possible.
UART2 Select – Turn this switch ON to enable UART2 communications.
UART3 Select – Turn this switch ON to enable UART3 communications. Note that UART3 must be disabled when using the
USB interface with the MSM6050. See the Reference Guide for the associated EM for details.
Module Wake – Turn this switch ON to activate the MODULE_WAKE signal. Used in conjunction with SW2.7 Host Status during reset to initiate Standalone Mode.
Host Status – Turn this switch ON to activate the HOST_STATUS signal. Used in conjunction with SW2.6 Module Wake during reset to initiate Standalone Mode.
LED Enable – Enables the MIO LED array. Turn this switch ON to enable the LED array.
XIM Select – This switch selects which MSM UART channel will be used for XIM mode, only when XIM is enabled by SW2-10. Turn this switch OFF (Low) to select UART2, and ON (High) to select UART3.
XIM Enable – Turn this switch ON to enable XIM on UART2 or UART3
(as per SW2-9 setting). The combination of XIM enable and XIM select will override the UARTn Select function switch for SW2-4 and SW2-5 above. That is, the XIM selection takes precedence over the UART function.
See XIM interface on page 26 for more details.

Bat Voltage Set – Sets the battery LDO regulator output to nominal voltage ~3.9V when turned ON.
When this switch is turned OFF, the LDO output voltage can be adjusted between 3.0~4.5V using potentiometer R394.
AUXV0<Battery – When ON, connects the main battery voltage (VBATT) to the AUXV0 pin. This
ADC input is often used by the module to measure battery voltage. See the Reference Guide for the EM model used.
Host<Battery - When ON, connects the main battery voltage (VBATT) to the Host battery voltage
(HOST_VBATT). Turn this switch OFF to isolate the HOST_BATTERY from the UDK VBATT net.

Audio testing
The development kit provides two methods of audio testing, a 2.5
mm headset jack for a hands free headset and an RJ ‐ 11 connector for a standard telephone handset.
There are two audio paths supported by the UDK:
•
Audio Path 1 is typically used for Handset applications
•
Audio Path 2 is typically used for the Headset interface in the end product.
However, Audio Path 1 can be used in conjunction with a headset to facilitate product development with the UDK.
Using a headset
The development kit has a 2.5mm
headset jack for a cell ‐ phone headset (J1).
MIC Bias voltage – When using a headset in standalone mode or if the host does not provide a MIC bias voltage, set SW3 ‐ 1 to the ON position, otherwise this switch should be set to the OFF position.
Note that the default audio gains of the modem are set for use with a host front end which contains additional gains in the transmit path (20 dB).
For this reason the audio will be very faint while using the headset in standalone mode – unless additional gains are added to the modem transmit path using directed test scripts.
The table below depicts SW3 settings for using the headset jack with audio path 1 or 2.

The HEADSET DETECT function is implemented using the MIC_DET pin 4, and is active low.
This connection relies on both the Microphone bias voltage being capable of signaling a logic 1 voltage level, plus the use of a GPIO with pull ‐ down in the MSM.
The BUTTON DETECT function as implemented is also active low, and relies on the use of a GPIO with pull ‐ up in the MSM.

Using a handset
For handset testing, a landline phone handset plugs directly into CN24, an RJ ‐ 11 jack.
To use this connector, the SW3 positions (see above table) corresponding to
MIC1 & SPK1 signals must be in the open (OFF) state.
It is important to note that the Handset interface requires that the EM be configured for direct interface to the microphone, i.e.
provides bias to MIC1P /
MIC1N.
If the EM is configured for interface to a Host CODEC or other line ‐ level circuitry not requiring DC bias, then the headset connector must be used as described above.
CN24 is used for the handset connector.
The pinout for this connector is shown below.

RF Interface
Introduction
This chapter covers information related to the radio frequency (RF) interface of the embedded module when used with the UDK.
The module’s RF use parameters vary between models.
For performance specifications of each EM model see the Product Specification and/or Application Notes.
The Application
Notes are also available as a reference for integrating an EM into a host platform.
Some examples of various bands and typical performance parameters include:

GPS Band 1575.42 MHz
50 Connection
The RF connection point on the development kit can be attached in several ways.
The EM antenna connection can be made with 50 Ω coaxial cable, using the associated coaxial cable connector (for example, Hirose U.FL
or Murata CSG series), or by attaching an SMA cable directly to the daughter card for bench configuration or the SMA bulkhead connector for the boxed configuration.
The boxed configuration can alternatively be connected via a TNC bulkhead adapter.
Direct connection to the module requires the correct RF connector adapter cable.
This can be obtained as an accessory through Sierra Wireless.
Note that additional RF cabling losses will affect the performance values listed in the embedded module specification.
The boxed configuration of the UDK, or use of the SMA connector on the daughter card will incur such losses.
Typical RF losses FOR each configuration are provided in the Reference Guide for the EM model used.
Values are given for the bands of operation, depending on the EM model.
Cables
Any connecting cables between the modem and the antenna (if required) must be
50 Ω .
Mismatching the impedance of the EM will result in a significant reduction in RF performance.
Antenna use
An SMA ‐ type connector is shipped with the UDK.
Frequency band(s) of operation for this antenna will depend on the model of EM delivered.
Additional frequency band(s) such as GPS, or additional antenna types are available from
Sierra Wireless as accessories.

This table contains part numbers for external connectors used in the UDK.
