CHAPTER 2 – INSTALLING THE MODEM

Configuring the Modem for Your Country

Different countries have different requirements for how modems must function. Therefore, before you use the modem, you must configure it to match the defaults of the country in which you are using it. You can configure the MT9234MU either manually using AT commands or with the Global Wizard. Both methods are described below.

54BUsing the Global Wizard Utility to Configure Country Code

The Global Wizard configuration utility is recommended for computers running Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, XP, and 2003. The Global Wizard can configure your modem for a specific country with just a few mouse clicks.

1. Insert the MT9234MU Installation CD into the CD-ROM drive. The Autorun dialog box appears.

2. Click Initial Setup and Country Selection. The Global Wizard dialog box appears. Click Next.

3. View the Global Wizard as it searches for your modem and identifies it. Click Next.

4. Select the country in which the modem is to be used, and then click Next.

5. Review your choice of country. If it is correct, click Next to configure the modem.

6. When Global Wizard announces that the parameters have been set, click Finish to exit.

55BUsing AT Commands to Configure Country Code

If you are comfortable using AT commands, you can configure your modem using AT commands. You must enter these commands in your communication program’s terminal window.

To configure the modem for a specific country, execute the following AT commands:

1. Type AT%T19,0,nn (where nn represents the country code). Press Enter.

2. The modem responds “OK.”

3. Type AT&F&W (this saves changes). Press Enter.

4. The modem responds “OK.”

5. Type ATI9 (this verifies that country code has been chosen). Press Enter.

6. The modem displays the country code in decimal format followed by an “OK.”

7. Check to be sure the code for your country is displayed. If not, repeat procedure to correct.

Here are two examples of country, command, and result codes.

Example Country/Region AT Command Country Code

(Hexidecimal) (Decimal)

Euro/NAM* AT%T19,0,34 (default) 52

You can find the complete list of country/region codes on the Multi-Tech Web site at

http://www.multitech.com/products/analog-modems/global-modems/global-modem-approvals

The Global Modem Country Approvals page displays. On this page you can view approvals, configuration strings and responses by country and product.

MultiMobile USB User Guide MT9234MU User Guide 17

Page 18

2BChapter 3 – Operating the Modem

20BFront Panel

The MT9234MU has 4 LEDs on the front panel indicating status, configuration, and activity:

 Data. The Data LED flashes when the modem is transmitting/receiving data to/from another

modem.

 Carrier Detect. The CD LED lights when the modem detects a valid carrier signal from another

modem. It is on when the modem is communicating with the other modem and off when the link is broken.

 Off-Hook. The OH LED lights when the modem is off-hook, which occurs when the modem is dialing,

online, or answering a call. The LED flashes when the modem pulse-dials.

 Terminal Ready. The TR LED lights when Windows detects and initializes the modem.

21BConnecting to the Internet

To access the Internet and Web through your modem, establish a dial-up account with an Internet service provider (ISP). To locate an ISP near you, look in a local directory or computer publication. To help you establish an account, your ISP provides you with the following information:

 User name (also called user ID)

 Password

 Access number (the number you call to connect to the server)

 Host name and/or domain name

 Domain Name Server (DNS) server address

If, besides the Web, you use the Internet for e-mail and newsgroups, your ISP can also provide you with the following information:

 E-mail or POP mail address

 POP server address

 Mail or SMTP address

 News or NNT server address

18 MultiMobile USB User Guide MT9234MU User Guide

Page 19

CHAPTER 3 – OPERATING THE MODEM

Internet Connection

Before you can connect to the Internet, you must set up a remote-node client program on your computer. Windows uses HyperTerminal to establish your connection to the ISP’s server, which is the shared computer that manages calls from clients (your computer) to the Internet. Most, if not all, Windows browsers can automatically open this connection. For instructions on how to set up this connection, consult your ISP or your operating system’s online help or printed documentation. Many ISPs provide a program that installs and configures this connection automatically for you.

MultiMobile USB User Guide MT9234MU User Guide 19

Page 20

Chapter 4 – Remotely Configuring Modems

Remote configuration is a network management tool that allows you to configure modems anywhere in your network from one location. With password protected remote configuration, you can issue AT commands to a remote MT9324MU modem for maintenance or troubleshooting as if you were on site.

The following steps are valid regardless of whether the connection is established by the local or the remote MultiTech modem.

To configure modems:

1. Establish a data connection with a remote MT9324MU modem.

2. Send three remote configuration escape characters followed by AT and the setup password, and

press ENTER. Example: %%%ATMTSMODEM. You have four tries to enter the correct password before being disconnected. If the password is correct, the remote modem responds with OK.

3. You can now send AT commands to configure the remote modem.

4. When you have finished configuring the remote modem, save the new configuration by typing

AT&W0, and pressing Enter.

5. Type ATO and press Enter to exit remote configuration. You can then break the connection in

the normal way.

Caution: If you hang up while you are in remote configuration mode, it may lock up the remote modem.

24BChanging the Setup Password

MultiTech modems are shipped with a default setup password (MTSMODEM). Because anyone who has

an owner’s manual knows the default setup password, for security you should change the password and

possibly also the remote configuration escape character.

1. Open a data communications program such as HyperTerminal. .

2. To change the password, type AT#S=xxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxxx stands for the password, and

press ENTER. The password can include any keyboard character, and must be one to eight characters long. The modem responds with OK.

3. The new password is saved automatically. You can now either enter more AT commands or exit

the data communications program. The next time you remotely configure the modem you must use the new setup password.

Note: You can only change the setup password locally; you cannot do it remotely. Also, passwords are

case sensitive. The next time you enter the password, it must be in the same case as you set it up.

20 MultiMobile USB User Guide MT9234MU User Guide

Page 21

CHAPTER 4 – REMOTELY CONFIGURING MODEMS

Changing the Remote Escape Character

To increase security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape character. The remote configuration escape character is stored in register S9. The factory default is 37, which is the ASCII code for the percent character (%). For ASCII code characters, refer to Appendix E. Setting S9 to 0 (zero) disables remote configuration entirely—but if you do this remotely, you won’t be able to change it back remotely.

1. Establish a remote configuration link with the remote modem as described in “Basic Procedure.”

2. Type ATS9=n, where n is the ASCII code for the new remote configuration escape character,

then press Enter.

3. To save the new value, type AT&W and press Enter.

4. Type ATO<CR> to exit remote configuration.

5BAppendix B – Installing on Linux

The MT9234MU supports Linux 2.4 kernel versions (2.4.28 and above), 2.6 kernel versions 2.6.8 through

2.6.10, and, with a special patch, Linux kernel versions 2.6.11 through 2.6.20.4 and above. There are three separate installation procedures for these ranges of kernel versions. When installation is complete, you must use AT commands to configure the modem for the country in which it is operating.

26BInstalling the Modem on Computers Using the Linux 2.4 Kernel

This procedure applies to Linux 2.4 kernel versions 2.4.28 and above.

These tgz and source RPM packages (ti_usb-1.2.tgz and ti_usb-1.2-1.src.rpm) contain a device driver for the MT9234MU’s TI USB 3410 processor in the Linux 2.4 kernels.

This package is designed for these hardware platforms: a standard PC with i486, Pentium, or compatible CPUs (32 bit x86).

This package has been tested on these Linux distributions:

 Red Hat 8.0

 Red Hat 9.0

 SUSE Linux Standard Server 8.0

Most likely this package will work on many other Linux distributions based on the 2.4 kernels, but this has not yet been tested. Note that different distributions can make custom changes to the Linux kernel, and there is a small chance that these changes might be incompatible with this package.

This package will not work in the Linux 2.6 kernels. Separate packages of the TI USB 3410/5052 driver are available for the Linux 2.6 kernels.

These packages are available from http://www.brimson.com/downloads

The tgz package will be named ti_usb-X.Y.tgz, and the source RPM package will be named ti_usb-X.YZ.src.rpm, where X.Y-Z is the version number. See www.brimson.com/downloads/README for a description of the packages available.

If you have questions or problems with this package please contact Texas Instruments technical support or Brimson technical support.

APPENDIX B – INSTALLING ON LINUX

Command

Explanation

1. cd /usr/src/linux-<version>

Change to the source directory.

2. make mrproper

Clean up any old files.

3. Use either of these commands:

make oldconfig

-OR-

make cloneconfig

Make a configuration file to match your running kernel.

for Red Hat

for SUSE

For other distributions these same commands might work, or you might need to find a config file in /boot or in a configs directory, copy it to .config, and run "make oldconfig".

4. make dep

Create the dependency and version files.

57BInstalling the Kernel Sources

To build the TI USB driver you must have the matching kernel sources for your kernel.

To verify that you have matching kernel sources, run "uname -r" to get the version of the running kernel. Then check for the directory /usr/src/linux-<version>, /lib/modules/<version>/source, /lib/modules/<version>/build, or /usr/src/linux-<stripped_version>, where stripped_version has the extra version information removed. In these directories look for the files include/linux/autoconf.h and .config.

If you do not find the correct kernel source directory, you must find and install the kernel sources from your distribution CDs or other media.

58BPreparing the Kernel Sources

This step may or may not be necessary, depending on how your Linux distribution installs the kernel sources.

If you have built your own kernel, the kernel sources are already installed and prepared. If you are using a kernel that came with a Linux distribution, it can sometimes be difficult to get the kernel sources correctly installed and prepared, since each Linux distribution handles kernel sources slightly differently.

If you have difficulties, look carefully at the error messages when installing the TGZ or RPM packages-those messages should give you an indication of just what the error is.

Or use the appropriate path for your Linux distribution.

3. rpm -Uvh ti_usb-X.Y-Z.i386.rpm

This command installs the driver package.

59BBuilding and Installing the TI USB Driver from the Source RPM Package

Follow this step if your distribution supports RPM packages; otherwise, follow the next step on installing from a TGZ package.

You need the TI USB source RPM package for this step. The Introduction section above describes where to find the latest TI USB source RPM.

If there are problems in this process, you may need to go back to install and prepare the kernel sources as described above. You may need to remove the RPM package with "rpm -e ti_usb-X.Y-Z" or remove RPM temporary files. Red Hat stores RPM temporary files in /var/tmp and /usr/src/redhat/BUILD; other distributions may store them in other places.

60BBuilding and Installing the TI USB Driver from the TGZ Package

Use the TI USB tgz package for this step. The Introduction section above describes where to find the latest TI USB tgz package.

If there are problems in this process, you may need to go back to install and prepare the kernel sources as described above.

Loading the TI USB Driver

The ti_usb driver is automatically loaded when you plug in the TI USB 3410 device, provided your device uses the default vendor and product ids. If it does not, see the section entitled "VENDOR and PRODUCT IDS" in the Release Notes file for Linux 2.4 kernel installations (on the product CD as file name ti_usb_release_notes-1 2.txt).

The first TI USB 3410 device plugged in appears as /dev/ttyTIUSB0, the next as /dev/ttyTIUSB1, and so on.

Note that these device names are different from the device names used by the Linux usbserial driver. See the section below entitled "DEVICE FILES" for more information.

If TI USB devices were in use before installing the new TI USB driver, old versions of the drivers are still loaded. You must unload these old versions before the newly installed driver is used.

The simplest way to unload the old drivers and load the new is to reboot.

Alternatively, you can close all open TI USB serial ports, disconnect the TI USB serial devices, and then unload the old TI USB serial driver with the command

rmmod ti_usb

Completion. Then reconnect the TI USB serial devices and the new driver is loaded.

30 MultiMobile USB User Guide MT9234MU User Guide

Page 31

APPENDIX B – INSTALLING ON LINUX

Device Files

Because the TI USB driver does not use usbserial (to avoid known problems with usbserial) it uses its own device file names, /dev/ttyTIUSB0, /dev/ttyTIUSB1, and so on.

The device files are created automatically when the ti_usb driver is loaded. This is done by the module post-install command in /etc/modules.conf, which runs the script /etc/ti_usb/make_devices.

You can change the device names that ti_usb uses. First you should remove the old device files by running

/etc/ti_usb/make_devices remove

Then edit /etc/ti_usb/make_devices. At the top of this file you find these parameters:

 DEVICE_NAME which determines the basename of the TI USB device files.

 DEVICE_COUNT which determines the number of device files created, DEVICE_GROUP which

determines the group owner of the device files.

 DEVICE_PERMISSIONS which determines the device file permissions.

For example, to create 8 TI USB device files named /dev/ttyusb0 through /dev/ttyusb7, owned by the uucp group, and having permissions 0660, change the parameters like this

DEVICE_NAME=/dev/ttyusb

DEVICE_COUNT=8

DEVICE_GROUP=uucp

DEVICE_PERMISSIONS=0660

After editing make_devices, run the script to create the new device files, like this

/etc/ti_usb/make_devices

If you use devfs, the ti_usb devices are /dev/usb/ti/0, /dev/usb/ti/1, and so on in the order they are plugged in. The ti_usb driver has not been tested with devfs.

If you installed the TI USB TGZ package, you can uninstall it by logging in as root and running the following commands:

Installing the Modem on Computers Using the Linux 2.6 Kernel

26BThis procedure applies to Linux 2.6 kernel versions 2.6.8 through 2.6.10.

These tgz and source RPM packages (ti_usb_2.6-1.2.tgz and ti_usb_2.6-1.2-1.src.rpm) contain a device driver for the MT9234MU’s TI USB 3410 processor in the Linux 2.6 kernels.

These packages have been tested on the Fedora Core 2 Linux distribution.

Most likely these packages work on many other Linux distributions based on the 2.6 kernels, but this has not yet been tested. Note that different distributions can make custom changes to the Linux kernel, and there is a small chance that these changes might be incompatible with this package.

The TI USB 3410/5052 driver has been tested in the kernel.org kernels 2.6.5 through a pre-release version of 2.6.10, and in the Fedora Core 2 kernels 2.6.5-1.358 and 2.6.9-1.6. There are limitations in kernels before 2.6.8; see the section on Known Limitations in the Release Notes file for kernel 2.6 (the file name is ti_usb_2 6_release_notes-1 2.txt).

These packages do not work in the Linux 2.4 kernels (however, installation in the 2.4 kernels is covered earlier in this chapter).

These packages are available from http://www.brimson.com/downloads

The tgz package is named ti_usb_2.6-X.Y.tgz, and the source RPM package is named ti_usb_2.6-X.YZ.src.rpm, where X.Y-Z is the version number. See www.brimson.com/downloads/README for a description of the packages available.

If you have questions or problems with this package, please contact Texas Instruments technical support or Brimson technical support.

Installing the Kernel Sources

To build the TI USB driver you must have the matching kernel sources for your kernel.

In particular, you must have the file usb-serial.h for your kernel sources. Sometimes Linux distributions include the kernel headers but not the complete kernel sources, and usb-serial.h is missing. However, the complete kernel sources should still be available as a separate add-on package.

To prepare the kernel sources for your machine.

If you do not find the correct kernel source directory, you must find and install the kernel sources from other media.

Preparing the Kernel Sources

This step may or may not be necessary, depending on how your Linux distribution installs the kernel sources.

If you built your own kernel, the kernel sources are already installed and prepared. If you are using a kernel that came with a Linux distribution, it can sometimes be difficult to get the kernel sources correctly installed and prepared, since each Linux distribution handles kernel sources slightly differently.

For example, if you get errors about the wrong kernel version, you may have installed the wrong kernel sources, or you may need to edit the kernel version in the top level Makefile of the kernel sources. If you get errors about a missing usb-serial.h, you may only have the kernel headers installed. If you have trouble getting the full kernel sources installed and prepared, you can copy the correct version of usbserial.h to drivers/usb/serial in the kernel headers directory and then the other kernel sources are not needed.

If you have difficulties, look carefully at the error messages when installing the TGZ or RPM packages. Those messages should give you an indication of just what the error is.

Installing the Modem on Computers Using the Linux 2.6.20 Kernel and Above

48B

This procedure applies to Linux 2.6 kernel versions 2.6.11 through 2.6.20 and higher.

This tgz package contains a patch for the Linux kernel version 2.6.20 and later to add support for MultiTech modems. The patch was generated from the 2.6.20.4 kernel source. Additional support files like hotplug scripts, udev rules and firmware images are also included.

The TI USB 3410/5052 driver should be included in the official Linux kernel in version 2.6.20 or later. The official Linux kernel does not yet have support for the Multitech modems, however; to add that support you need this package.

This package has been tested on these Linux distributions: (a) Fedora Core 6, and (b) CentOS 5.

Most likely this package works on many other Linux distributions based on the 2.6 kernels, but this has not yet been tested. Note that different distributions can make custom changes to the Linux kernel, and there is a small chance that these changes might be incompatible with this package.

These packages are available from http://www.brimson.com/downloads

If you have questions or problems with this package, please contact Texas Instruments technical support or Brimson technical support.

68BPatching and Rebuilding the Kernel

Apply the patch ti_usb_multitech_2.6.20.4.patch. This patch should apply to 2.6.20.4 and later kernels. Then rebuild and reinstall your kernel and/or kernel modules. Be sure the TI USB driver is configured on.

Detailed instructions on patching and building a kernel can be found elsewhere.

69BInstalling the Hotplug Scripts

The ti_usb_3410_5052 driver needs a hotplug script to work correctly. This hotplug script is used to change the device configuration.

Copy ti_usb_3410_5052 to /etc/hotplug/usb/ti_usb_3410_5052. Be sure the script is owned by root:root and has permissions r-xr-xr-x.

If the device configuration is not being set properly, you might need a slightly different hotplug script, depending on your Linux distribution. If this does not work, remove /etc/hotplug/usb/ti_usb_3410_5052 and instead copy /etc/ti_usb/ti_usb_3410_5052.hotplug into /etc/hotplug.d/usb.

Some distribution have deprecated hotplug scripts. If this is the case, you most likely need a udev rule to perform this function.

If TI USB devices had been in use before installing the new TI USB driver, old versions of the drivers are still loaded. You must unload these old versions before the newly installed driver is used.

The simplest way to unload the old drivers and load the new is to reboot.

Alternatively, you can close all open TI USB serial ports, disconnect the TI USB serial devices, and then unload the old TI USB serial driver with the command

rmmod ti_usb_3410_5052

Then reconnect the TI USB serial devices and the new driver is loaded.

If you installed the TI USB RPM package, you can uninstall it by logging in as root and running the command

rpm -e ti_usb_2.6-X.Y-Z

If you installed the TI USB TGZ package, you can uninstall it by logging in as root and running the following commands:

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment

WEEE Directive

The WEEE Directive places an obligation on EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and importers to take-back electronics products at the end of their useful life. A sister directive, ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) complements the WEEE Directive by banning the presence of specific hazardous substances in the products at the design phase. The WEEE Directive covers all MultiTech products imported into the EU as of August 13, 2005. EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers and importers are obliged to finance the costs of recovery from municipal collection points, reuse, and recycling of specified percentages per the WEEE requirements.

Instructions for Disposal of WEEE by Users in the European Union

The symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging, which indicates that this product must not

be disposed of with other waste. Instead, it is the user’s responsibility to dispose of their waste equipment

by handing it over to a designated collection point for the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the time of disposal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that it is recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. For more information about where you can drop off your waste equipment for recycling, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or where you purchased the product.

REACH Statement

Registration of Substances

After careful review of the legislation and specifically the definition of an “article” as defined in EC

Regulation 1907/2006, Title II, Chapter 1, Article 7.1(a)(b), it is our current view Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. products would be considered as “articles”. In light of the definition in § 7.1(b) which requires registration

of an article only if it contains a regulated substance that “is intended to be released under normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use,” Our analysis is that Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. products

constitute nonregisterable articles for their intended and anticipated use.

Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC)

Per the candidate list of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) published October 28, 2008 we have reviewed these substances and certify the Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. products are compliant per the EU

“REACH” requirements of less than 0.1% (w/w) for each substance. If new SVHC candidates are published

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MT9234MU User Guide 38

Page 39

APPENDIX C – ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION

by the European Chemicals Agency, and relevant substances have been confirmed, that exceeds greater than 0.1% (w/w), Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. will provide updated compliance status.

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. also declares it has been duly diligent in ensuring that the products supplied are compliant through a formalized process which includes collection and validation of materials declarations and selective materials analysis where appropriate. This data is controlled as part of a formal quality system and will be made available upon request.

Restriction of the Use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. Certificate of Compliance 2011/65/EU

MultiTech Systems confirms that its embedded products comply with the chemical concentration limitations set forth in the directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment - RoHS)

These MultiTech products do not contain the following banned chemicals1:

● Lead, [Pb] < 1000 PPM

● Mercury, [Hg] < 1000 PPM

● Hexavalent Chromium, [Cr+6] < 1000 PPM

● Cadmium, [Cd] < 100 PPM

● Polybrominated Biphenyl, [PBB] < 1000 PPM

● Polybrominated Diphenyl Ether, [PBDE] < 1000 PPM

Environmental considerations:

● Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) =1

● Maximum Soldering temperature = 260C (in SMT reflow oven)

Lead usage in some components is exempted by the following RoHS annex, therefore higher lead

concentration would be found in some modules (>1000 PPM);

–Resistors containing lead in a glass or ceramic matrix compound.
