1. ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT This document describes the main characteristics of the Nokia Machine-to- Machine (M2M) Application Development Kit (ADK). The product concept, purpose of use, main features, and sales packages are d epicted at a general level. More detailed information can be found at the Forum Nokia website, http://www.
2. INTRODUCTION As we are quickly moving towards the world of third generation mobile traffic, more attention than ever is being paid to the wireless data market. So far, we have seen only the first steps towards the mobile information society, but it has already become clear that wireless data means more than just web browsing.

has a limited set of features compared to Corporate and Service Provider editions. Nokia 30 GSM Connectivity Terminal The Nokia 30 GSM Connectivity Terminal, presented in Figure 2, is an M2M communications device with versatile interfaces and advanced functions.
3. NOKIA M2M ADK PROD UCT CONCEPT AND USAGE The Nokia M2M Application Development Kit (ADK) belongs to the Nokia M2M Platform product family. The Nokia M2M ADK provides a set of tools for creating applications on the Nokia M2M Platform and testing them in the development phase.

4. EV ALUA TION MODULE The Nokia M2M ADK includes an evaluation module, which is an example HW for the embedded application module. One of the example applications in the Nokia M2M ADK can be used to control evaluation module digital and analog inputs and outputs, see Chapter 7.
4.1.2 Power interface The evaluation module has a power interface for the ACW-5 Nokia Power Supply. The input voltage range is 6.4 V - 13.5 V, and the absolute maximum rating is 16.5 V. This power interface is not needed if power is supplied from the terminal through the M2M system connector.
4.1.8 Tracing interface The evaluation module has an interface for tracing the traffic in the M2M system interface between the evaluation module and the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal. Physically there are two D9 connectors on the PCB, one for tracing the traffic from the evaluation module and one for tracin g the traffic to the evaluation module.
4.2.3 OS & HW wrappers This SW module integrates other M2M components to other embedded SW. The purpose is that M2M components could remain the same as far as possible, whatever the overall system . This is achieved by defining a general purpose interface that can be easily mapped to various platforms.
5. NOKIA M2M GA TEW A Y TRIAL VERSION The Nokia M2M Gateway Trial Version is intended for trialling the Nokia M2M Platform technology and for testing purposes in the software development phase. The server application may be run on the same host as the Nokia M2M Gateway Trial Version.

6. CONFIGURA TOR SW The Configurator software is an accessory product for Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminals. It is used to modify the basic settings of the terminal so that the connection to the GW can be established.
7. APPLICA TION EXAMPLES The Nokia M2M Application Development Kit includes application examples that show how the Nokia M2M Platform application can be implemented. All application examples are available in source codes that make application development easier, as the codes can be copied, modified and used in the customer’s own applications.
These terminal end applications are implemented with C. 7.3 SERVER END EXAMPLE1 AND EXAMPLE2 APPLICATIONS Nokia M2M ADK includes example applications for controlling the t erminal connected to the evaluation module at the embedded end from the server side.
8. M2M TRACER The Nokia M2M Application Development Kit includes a tracer for logging the traffic over the M2M system interface between the evaluation module and the Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminal. The tracer includes a tracer interface in th e evaluation module and PC software.
9. IDL COMPILER The Nokia M2M ADK includes an IDL compiler for the embedded applicatio n development. The IDL compiler is a program that reads IDL files and produces the necessary programming language-specific files: skeletons and stubs. These translate message data into a form that is appropriate for cross- platform messaging.
10. DOCUMENT A TION Nokia M2M ADK includes a lot of documentation concerning the ADK HW and SW and about application development on the Nokia M2M Platform. All the documents are available separately from the Forum Nokia website in Nokia M2M section, but they are also included in the CD-ROM in the evaluation module sales package.
21/21 11. SALES P ACKAGE To get full benefit of the Nokia M2M ADK, the developer needs two Nokia GSM Connectivity Terminals, an evaluation module and M2M ADK software in the installation CD-ROM.
