10 Installation Mounting kit for top-hat rail installation The TC35 Terminal can be attached to a 35mm top-hat rail using this mounting kit. There are two screws that are used tofix the top-hat rail adapter to the TC35 Terminal. The TC35 Terminal can be inserted onto the top-hat rail using this adapter.
11 Interface description The following interfaces are available on the TC35Terminal: • Connector for the plug-in power supply unit • Handset connector • Mini-SIM card holder • Antenna connector FME (male) • RS232 interface (V.
12 Interface description Purpose of the connectors/connections Use and operation The power supply is implemented by the + - and the GND wire. To switch the TC35 Terminal on, proceed as follows: – Either activate the DTR control line via the RS232 interface – Or connect IGT_IN to + .
13 Interface description Polarity reversal protection Polarity reversal protection is implemented by means of a power diode. The diode has a reverse voltage of 400V. Overvoltage protection Overvoltages are suppressed by a Zener diode after the polarity reversal protection diode.
14 Interface description Interference immunity • The cable length must not exceed 3m • Current carrying capacity <1.5A (Western modular jack) • Nominal signal range: 0.
15 Interface description Handset connector The handset is connected via a 4-pin Mini- Western socket. The audio interface has a symmetrical design. The audio interface can be configured by AT commands. Threeaudio modes are prepared in the GSM module for this purpose.
16 Interface description Handset connector Purpose of the connectors/connections 2 1 3 4 1 MICN 2 EPN 3 EPP 4 MICP Signal name PIN I/O Description Parameters MICN 1 DC:O AC:I Microphone input minus DC (no load): U 0 =6.0V±10% (MICP) U 0 =0V (MICN) R i = 4.
17 Interface description Use and operation A connected handset can be used when the customer application initiates the TALK state with AT commands via the RS232 interface.
18 Interface description SIM card connector The connector is intended for 3V SIM cards in accordance with GSM11.12 phase2 to operate the Terminal. The SIM card (3V type) must be inserted in the card holder to put the TC35 Terminal into operation. 1. Make sure that there is no voltage applied to the TC35 Terminal.
19 Interface description 3. Insert the SIM card in the SIM card holder and push it back into the housing..
20 Interface description Purpose of the connectors/connections Use and operation A SIM card holder from Molex with a SIM_IN contact is used. Only when the card holder is inserted is the switched closed. The card can only be replaced when the GSM engine is in the POWER DOWN state.
21 Interface description The Bootbox BB35 enables software to be updated via the SIM interface. The Bootbox is connected instead of a SIM card (see "Bootbox BB35" on page33).
22 Interface description Transmission type and method • Digitally modulated RF burst signal • GMSK in accordance with GSM05.04 • Half duplex • Bidirectional Interference immunity • Electrost.
23 Interface description RS232 interface The RS232 interface is the interface for the application software and the connection to the PC. The customer application communicates with the TC35 Terminal or the TC35 GSM engine by means of A Tcellular commands.
24 Interface description Purpose of the connectors/connections Use and operation In order to control the Terminal and transfer data, the customer application (e.g. host computer) is connected via the RS232 cable. Signal name PIN I/O Description Parameters DCD 1 O The functions correspond to those of a serial interface on the basis of a V.
25 Interface description Interference immunity • The connecting cable must not exceed 1.8m in length. • Nominal signal range: ±15V • Max. load current 1A • Electrical fast transient burst req.
26 Startup Before startup, the components required for your application must be connected. The SIM card must be inserted in a deenergized state. The TC35 Terminal is ready for operation when supply voltage is applied and the ignition line is activated.
27 Startup In its energized state, the GSM module provides the supply voltage (VDD). VDD ensures that the switching regulator remains on, even when its closing condition is lost (i.
28 Startup Activation of the PD_IN reset signal on the power supply connection The POWERDOWN line on the GSM module is connected to the watchdog input pin of the power supply ASIC, which can only be switched off by changing the watchdog condition. To do this, the PD_IN Terminal reset line is active (high) for at least 3.
29 Operating states / LED The LEDs display the following operating states of the Terminal: Operating state LED After connecting the plug- in power supply unit On for 2 s POWER DOWN Off – Network sea.
30 Operating states / LED Note: Usually, the network search takes only a fewseconds till the Terminal is registered. If the flashing continues, this means that no SIM card is inserted, no PIN number is entered or no GSM network is available. POWER DOWN Once the operating voltage is applied ( + and GND), the TC35 Terminal is in the POWER DOWN state.
31 Operating states / LED Network search (no SIM card, no PIN number, no GSM network) In the network search state, the TC35 Terminal searches for a GSM network. All the components in the GSM Terminal (module) that are not required are shut down in several stages by the energy-saving software.
32 AT command control The TC35 Terminal is controlled and programmed by means of AT commands. The AT command structure corresponds to the TC35 module used.
33 SW update A SW update for the TC35 Terminal takes place via the RS232 interface or the SIM interface. These interfaces must be designed in such a way that the upgrading ofthe TC35 Terminal is integrated in the application. The software can be obtained from the ICM WM home page.
34 Compatibility Compatibility withthe predecessor, the M20Terminal The direct predecessor of the TC35 Terminal is the M20 Terminal. The antenna connector is not compatible. The modified version (passive version) of the Votronic handset must be operated at the audio interface in accordance with HH-SI-30.
35 Certification / maintenance Certification The TC35 with its IMEI number is approved for operation in GSM networks and complies with the following EU directives: • Directive 89/336/EEC on electrom.
