PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Chapter 1 – Product Overview

Overview

The MultiConnect®DragonflyTMNano (MTQN) cellular System-on-Module (SoM) is a small version of the
MultiConnect®DragonflyTM(MTQ) System-on-Module (SoM). Both embedded devices offer developers the
functionality of an on-board cellular radio all-in-one compact design. The DragonflyTMNano provides a practical
solution to the market's demand for a smaller, low-power module.

The DragonflyTMNano functions similarly to the MultiConnect®DragonflyTMand maintains interoperability with
legacy systems that use a 40-pin connector and forward mounting hole. All Dragonfly software is open source.

Communications Flow

MTQN-MNG1-B01

The MTQN-MNG1-B01 provides full UART from the cellular radio to the processor as well as the user application.
Model B01 provides a direct USB interface connection to the radio, but not through the 40-pin connector.

Switching between the USB interface and serial port requires a reset. The cellular radio checks for a USB
connection upon reset. If USB is not present, it only uses the serial port. If USB is present upon reset, it only uses
USB.

USB Cable Recommendations

If your device has a USB connector, to avoid enumeration or power issues:

Use a high-speed USB cable that is as short as possible.
Use a well-shielded cable with at least 24 AWG wire pair for power/ground and 28 AWG wire pair for data

lines.
If possible, use a USB port that connects directly to the motherboard rather than a USB port with added

cabling inside the computer chassis.
Use USB 3.0 ports if available. These ports are typically rated for more current.
You can order the USB cable through MultiTech. The part number is: CA-USB-A-MICRO-B-3.

Device Reset

MTQN-MNG1-B01

There are two components to reset.

HARDWARE AND SPECIFICATIONS

1. Processor reset: Several reset methods are available and all are documented in the STM32L471QG

reference guide.

2. Radio reset: The processor controls the RESET_N and PWR_ON pins to the radio. The functionality of

those pins is described in the ublox SARA_R4 data sheet.

Note:

N_RESET of the 40 pin connector is directly connected to NRST of the STM32L471QG processor. The
processor controls the PWR_ON(RADIO_ONOFF/PE_4) and RESET_N(RADIO_RESET/PF_3) pins to the radio.

Powering Down the Cellular Radio

CAUTION:: Failing to properly power down the cellular radio before removing power may corrupt the radio's file

system.

To properly power down the cellular radio, use one of the following methods:

1. Issue command AT+CPWROFF then either wait 40s or until 1.8v from the cellular radio goes low.

Processor pin PC5 (Mbed pin name MON_1V8) has 1.8v from the radio connected to it.

2. Hold pin processor PE_4 (Mbed pin name RADIO_ONOFF or MDMPWRON) low for at least 1.5s. 1.8v

from the radio should go low.

3. If neither of the above two options are successful, an emergency power down can be performed by

holding processor pin PF_3 (mbed pin name RADIO_RESET) low for 10s. As always, power down is
confirmed by monitoring 1.8v from the radio.

Low Power Modes

To achieve lowest power consumption, we recommend powering down the radio then configuring RADIO_PWR,
VMEM_EN and BUF_EN as analog inputs with no pull resistor. The last step is to place the processor in a low power
mode of your choosing.

MultiConnect®Dragonfly™Nano MTQN-MNG1-B01 Device Guide 19

HARDWARE AND SPECIFICATIONS

WARNING:If your application is using the on board flash memory part, make sure any flash accesses are complete

before removing power or the memory may be corrupted.

Configuring u-blox Cellular Radio

HARDWARE AND SPECIFICATIONS

This MNG1 device uses a cellular radio that can operate on different carrier networks (not simultaneously).

Your device is configured in the factory for Cat M1 mode and to automatically detect your SIM to register on your
carrier network provided their network is on supported list of MNOs for the u-blox cellular radio. Typically, most
customers should not need to use the commands in this section.

If your carrier network is not on the supported list of MNOs, you must set to Cat M1 mode and follow the
instructions per that scenario below.

The MNG1 model is licensed to operate on both Verizon or AT&T networks. Refer to the Sara-R4/N4 series AT
Commands Manual for more details.

Note: If your device is on +UMNOPROF: 0 (SW default), there is no network and you must set one.

Set at the factory (factory default on MNG1):

1. This command sets your device in Cat M1 mode:

AT+URAT=7

2. This command automatically detects the carrier network based on your device SIM, provided that

your carrier network (or MNO) is on the supported list:

AT+UMNOPROF=1

To set or switch carrier networks:

1. Deregister the module from the network or perform an AT+CFUN=0 cycle:

AT+CFUN=0

Interference with Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices

Potential Interference

Radio frequency energy (RF) from cellular devices can interact with some electronic devices. This is
electromagnetic interference (EMI). The FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure EMI of implanted
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from cellular devices. This test method is part of the Association for the
Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) standard. This standard allows manufacturers to ensure that
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from cellular device EMI.

The FDA continues to monitor cellular devices for interactions with other medical devices. If harmful interference
occurs, the FDA will assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

Precautions for pacemaker wearers

If EMI occurs, it could affect a pacemaker in one of three ways:

Stop the pacemaker from delivering the stimulating pulses that regulate the heart's rhythm.
Cause the pacemaker to deliver the pulses irregularly.
Cause the pacemaker to ignore the heart's own rhythm and deliver pulses at a fixed rate.

Based on current research, cellular devices do not pose a significant health problem for most pacemaker wearers.
However, people with pacemakers may want to take simple precautions to be sure that their device doesn't cause
a problem.

Keep the device on the opposite side of the body from the pacemaker to add extra distance between the
pacemaker and the device.

Avoid placing a turned-on device next to the pacemaker (for example, don’t carry the device in a shirt or
jacket pocket directly over the pacemaker).

Vehicle Safety

When using your device in a vehicle:

Do not use this device while driving.
Respect national regulations on the use of cellular devices in vehicles.
If incorrectly installed in a vehicle, operating the wireless device could interfere with the vehicle’s

electronics. To avoid such problems, use qualified personnel to install the device. The installer should verify
the vehicle electronics are protected from interference.

Using an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or horn is not permitted on public roads.

GETTING STARTED

Chapter 6 – Getting Started

Developing with an MTQN in Mbed

The MTQN ships with AT pass-through firmware, which directly connects the cellular radio to a serial port made
available via micro USB connector J6 on the MTUDK2-ST-CELL developer board. The firmware:

Runs at 115200 baud by default to match with the cellular radio’s default baud rate.
Prints debug messages from the debug port at 115200 baud.
Allows users to increase or decrease the application’ s baud rate by entering a plus (+) or minus (-) character

on the USB debug port. Issuing a plus or minus character on the USB debug port changes the external serial
port speed as well as the speed of the link between the processor and the radio. The speed of the USB
debug port on reset is always 115200 to match the radio’s default regardless of the baud rate used at the
time of reset.

Uses RTS/CTS flow control on the serial connection to the radio and on the external serial connection.
Enables RTS/CTS flow control on terminal emulators used with the AT pass-through firmware.
