Interface description
IO Interface
Connector
This chapter provides specifications for
the 18-pin IO interface connector which
serves the outputs, inputs and power
supply interfaces of the Terminal. The
type of the receptacle assembled on the
Netkom XT65 terminal is Micro Mate-NLOK 3mm from Tyco Electronics. Mating
headers can be chosen from the Tyco
Micro Mate-N-LOK Series. For latest
product information please contact your
Micro Electronics dealer or visit the Tyco
home page, for example:

Tyco Micro Mate-N-LOK series on the
Netkom XT65 Terminal
The power supply of the Netkom XT65
Terminal has to be a single voltage
source of POWER = 8V…30V capable
of providing a peak during an active
transmission. The uplink burst causes
strong ripples (drop) on the power lines.
The Netkom XT65 terminal is protected
from supply voltage reversal and
overvoltage.
A fast acting fuse I≥0.8A with melting
integral I²t (0.8 … 1.5 A²s) is necessary to
use the Netkom XT65 Terminal at a 24V
power supply system for vehicles.
The power supply must be compliant with
the EN60950 guidelines.
The serial interface of the Netkom
XT65 terminal is intended for the
communication between the GSM module
and the host application. This RS-232
interface is a data and control interface
for transmitting data, AT commands and
providing multiplexed channels. EMC
immunity complies with
the vehicular environment requirements
according to EN 301 489-7.
Location of serial interface pins
Netkom XT65 Terminal is designed for use
as a DCE. Based on the conventions for
DCE-DTE connections it communicates
with the customer application (DTE) using
the following signals:
The RS-232 interface is implemented as
a serial asynchronous transmitter and
receiver conforming to ITU-T V.24 Interchange Circuits DCE. It is configured for
8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit and
can be operated at fixed bit rates from
300bps to 460,800bps. Autobauding supports bit rates from 1,2bps to 460,800bps.
Hardware handshake using the /RTS and /
CTS signals and XON/XOFF software flow
control are supported.
The I²C interface is located at the IO
interface connector of the Netkom XT65
Terminal. I²C is a serial, 8-bit oriented data
transfer bus for bit rates up to 400kbps in
fast mode. It consists of two lines. These
are the serial data line I2CDAT and the
serial clock line I2CCLK.
The Netkom XT65 Terminal acts as a single
master device, e.g. the clock I2CCLK is
driven by the Terminal. The connection
I2CDAT is a bi-directional line.
Each device which is connected to
the bus is software addressable by a
unique address and simple master/
slave relationships exists at all times. The
Terminal operates as master-transmitter
or as master-receiver. The customer
application transmits or receives data only
on request of the Terminal. To configure
and activate the I2C interface use the
AT^SSPI command.
Location of I2C interface pins
Below addresses are reserved for
watchdog, I2C and 1wire bridge:
1-Wire® products provide combinations
of memory, mixed signal, and secure
authentication functions via a patented
single contact serial interface. With both
power and communication delivered over
the serial protocol, 1-Wire devices are
unmatched in their ability to provide key
functions to systems where interconnect
must be minimized.
Netkom XT65 has an single channel I2C
to 1-wire bridge device on board. You can
control 1-wire devices by Java
(AT commands -> I2C -> bridge -> 1-wire).
The VDD pin at the IO interface connector
may be used for supplying external circuit
devices or applications and indicates the
following states of the Netkom XT65
Terminal:
VDD output voltage = 3 V @ max. 200 •
mA indicates Normal Operation mode
or Airplane mode
VDD output voltage = 0V indicates •
Power Down mode
Use the RST pin only when, due to serious
problems, the software is not responding
for more than 5 seconds. Pulling the RST
pin causes the loss of all information
stored in the volatile memory. Therefore,
this procedure is intended only for use in
case of emergency, e.g. if Netkom XT65
terminal does not respond, if reset or
shutdown via AT command fails.
The RST button can be used to reset the
module.

The green one indicates different
operating modes of the Netkom XT65
terminal.
To take advantage of this function the
LED mode must be activated with the
AT^SSYNC command. The LED can be
operated in two different display modes
(AT^SSYNC=1 or AT^SSYNC=2).
The following table lists the possible
patterns of status LED behavior, and
describes the ME operating status
indicated by each pattern if AT^SSYNC
parameter <mode>=1 and <mode>=2. To
better monitor the operating states while
power saving is enabled, we recommend
that priority be given to <mode>=2.
During the transition from one LED pattern
to another the “on” and/or “off” periods
of the LED may vary in length. This is
because an event that triggers the change
may occur any time and, thus, truncate the
current LED pattern at any point.

for details on the various SLEEP modes and wake-up events.
** The duration of <n> and <m> depends on the network: In SLEEP mode, the module can only change its LED
status during intermittent wake-up periods when listening to paging information from the base station. Therefore the
values of <n> and <m> vary as follows: <n> = value from 471 ms to 2118 ms <m> = 3000 ms
This chapter is only for advanced users.
You can switch on/off same parts of the
hardware. This is useful for better secure
of the Netkom XT65 Terminal and you
can save an energy (useful in automotive
applications), for example you can turn off
RS232, etc.
Before startup the SIM card must be
inserted in a deenergized state.
The terminal is ready for operation when
supply voltage is applied. It starts the
network search and registers with
network operator. Please read the
following conditions for switching the
terminal on and off:

Switching on/
off terminal
Switching on:
Simply applying supply voltage.
Switching off:
Software shutdown via an AT command.
It is advisable for a controlled shutdown of
the terminal.
In the case of this hardware shutdown,
the software is no longer able to respond
before the voltage is switched off. This
corresponds to a direct, unannounced
disconnection of the operating voltage.
The terminal is controlled and
programmed by means of AT commands.
The AT command structure corresponds
to the XT65 module. The AT commands
can be obtained from the Netkom support
page: www.nwm.pl.
