PRÉSENTATION
Entirely dedicated to the wireless markets throughout the world, the GenPro 2xe (Application On Board)
allows a simple and rapid integration of GSM / GPRS Quad-Band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) connectivity into
M2M applications.
The GenPro 2xe is a robust, reliable and long life product. Its very compact metal case makes it ideally
adapted to onboard standards
The range GenPro 2xe comes in two versions: GenPro 22e and GenPro 23e
Optional back-up battery and accelerometer associated with EGM (Erco & Gener Middleware) development
tools, offer the possibility for the personalisation of supplementary applications
Unlike GenPro 22e, GenPro 23e has 3 inputs and 1 digital output
The GenPro 2xe has 3 operating modes:
External mode (standard): The driving is made by an external application. The modem is used with
the AT commands set (see EG_EGM_CL_xxx_yy of ERCO & GENER).
Autonomous mode (optional): Once configured, the modem is autonomous; it cyclically registers the
positions and transmits them automatically to the client’s application via different services: SMS,
GSM Data, TCP socket GPRS (see EG_EasePro_01_CL_xxx_yy of ERCO & GENER).
Specific development mode: the EGM development tool allows to develop personalized embedded
application. For more information concerning the tools and the training, please contact our sales
department.
The GenPro 2xe provides digital inputs/outputs allowing the creation of embedded telematic solutions
with high added value.
This document describes the modem and provides the following information:
- General presentation,
- Functional description,
- Available basic services,
- Installation and use of the modem (first level),
- Trouble shooting,
- Recommended accessories for the use of the modem.

Application Notes, Command List).
•ERCO & GENER cannot be held responsible for:
- The problems due to an inappropriate use of the GenPro 2xe .
- The problems due to a wrong configuration
- The problems due to a wrong use of an embedded software application developed or
supplied by a third party.
- The dysfunctions due to the absence or a bad coverage of the GSM, GPRS networks.
- The dysfunctions if the product is used for the watching of physical persons where human
life is engaged.
• ERCO & GENER reserves the right to modify the functions of its products " GenPro 2xe " and
"EasePro" without previous notice.
- In order to avoid any risk of electrocution, do not open the casing.
- For any functioning, the casing must be closed.
- No internal part can be repaired by the user. The GenPro 2xe must be returned to the factory for any
repair.
- The GenPro 2xe must be placed in a normally ventilated area, out of sources of heat.
- In order to guarantee the electromagnetic compatibility, the length of the serial cable, the supply cable and
the inputs/outputs cable must not exceed 3 meters.
- The GenPro 2xe must not be connected directly to the mains supply; a voltage adapter must be used.
SCRAP THE WORN BATTERIES ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS.
