The Delta Plus MOBILE II is a new low powered high speed GSM/GPRS modem which has been specifically designed to meet the requirements of the telemetry market and specifically applications within the Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) arena.
The purpose of this manual is to enable the user to set up, configure and use the modem in a manner suitable for any given application. A basic level of modems and data communication technology is assumed.

Dual Band - ie. E-GSM (900 Mhz) or GSM (1800 Mhz) GPRS – Mobile Originate and Listen modes. (Class 10) Internal battery option. External power option
Connecting to your Terminal or Computer
The 25 way D-type connector on the top of the modem provides the relevant input and output connections to asynchronous (Serial RS-232 and compatible) controllers. To establish a connection the modem can be directly connected to a suitable 25 way socket on your computer or other DTE device, or a short RS-232 cable can be used. When connecting the modem to the DTE device, consideration must be given to the power supply arrangements as most devices will not provide a suitable supply to the modem via the 25 way D-type connector.

The 25 way D-type connector is wired as follows:

Supplying power to the modem
The Delta Plus MOBILE II GSM/GPRS modem is powered via the RS232 interface connector. Pins 9 and/or 15 require a +7 to +24 Volts DC supply (issue F. board) Earlier issues of the board require +7 to +15Volts. The modem consumes 0.3 Watts. (See appendix). The supply to the modem is floated across internal SuperCaps. These devices hold a considerable charge and will allow the modem LED’s to continue to function for several minutes after the removal of the power supply. This enables the modem to be used in environments where the power supply is either intermittent and/or inadequate (within reason) for a conventional modem product.
Battery powered version.
The GSM/GPRS modem is also available as a battery powered device. The battery employed in the modem is a Lithium Ion Polymer type and is subject to a minimum duty cycle of 1000 operations. The battery is fitted in addition to the “Super Caps” that are present in the standard modem and will power the modem for approximately two minutes after the external supply has been removed. This is regardless of whether or not the modem is on line. When the modem shuts down it will issue a “Goodbye” message to the interface. Additionally the modem can be switched off using an AT command. The AT+K command will shutdown the entire modem (not just the Sony Ericsson module as is the case with other ASLH 306 products) within 15 seconds. If the power supply to the modem is not removed within 30 seconds
ASL Holdings Limited 19/09/2005 6 Draft Copy Version 2c
of the modem issuing the “Goodbye” message then it will commence its power up sequence and restart. The battery powered modem will power up within 5 seconds after the external supply is applied given that the battery and capacitors are fully charged and that the modem is operating at room temperature. If the battery and capacitors are not fully charged and/or the modem is not operating at room temperature then the power up sequence will take longer.
Antennae.
The Delta Plus MOBILE II GSM/GPRS modem is designed to work with many industry standard antennae. Connection to the antenna is via a flying lead terminated with a SMA type co-axial connector. The selection of the most suitable antenna in any given installation will be dependent upon factors such as the distance from the cell site, signal strength, power supply levels, and other physical constraints. ASLH Ltd. will be pleased to assist customers with the selection of suitable antennae.
Subscriber Identity Module card.
This product requires a suitable Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card inserted in the right hand side of the modem. The SIM card is provided by the network service provider eg. O2, Vodafone, Orange etc. This card must be data enabled, ie. a voice only SIM will not work. Additionally, if the product is to be used for GPRS applications then the SIM card must be GPRS enabled. This mode will be set as either mobile originate or terminate (IP listen) depending upon the users requirements. ASLH Ltd. is able to provide network service supplied by the aforementioned companies.
Configuring the modem
This is achieved by the use of the standard Hayes(™) AT command set as utilised in conventional land line modems. A comprehensive list of AT commands used by the Delta Plus MOBILE II GSM/GPRS modem follows.
AT Command set
AT+ commands should be used alone, not concatenated ie AT+Y<cr> not AT+YS0=1<cr> etc).
AT A
Answer mode enable
ASL Holdings Limited 19/09/2005 7 Draft Copy Version 2c
Causes the modem to answer an incoming call.
AT D
Dial Command
Causes the modem to go on line and dial the following telephone number subject to parameters set in the dial string.
eg: ATDT 12345 123456^m
Where “D” = Dial, “T” = Tone (Compatibility only), ^m = Carriage return.
AT E
Local Echo in command mode.
AT E0 = Local Echo off AT E1 = Local Echo on
AT H
Hang Up command.
This command causes the modem to disconnect from the telephone line.
AT I
Identifier command.
