2.0 Regulatory Compliance FCC
2.1 Integration Considerations and Installation Requirements
The Enabler II-E OEM GPRS modem is designed for use in a variety of host units, "enabling" the host platform to perform wireless data communications. However, there are certain criteria relative to integrating the modem into a host platform such as a PC, laptop, handheld or PocketPC, monitor and control unit, etc. that must be considered to ensure continued compliance with FCC compliance requirements.
In order to use the Enabler II-E without additional FCC certification approvals, the installation must meet the following conditions:
For the transmitter to meet the MPE categorical exclusion requirements of 2.1091, the ERP
must be less than 1.5 watts for personnel separation distance of at least 20 cm (7.9 in). Therefore, the maximum antenna gain cannot exceed +3.3dBi. If greater than 1.5 watts exists, then additional testing and FCC approval is required.
If used in a "portable" application such as a handheld device with the antenna less than 20 cm
(7.9 in.) from the human body when the device is operating, then the integrator is responsible for passing additional "as installed" testing:
SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) testing, with results submitted to the FCC for approval prior to selling the integrated unit. If unable to meet SAR requirements, then the host unit must be restricted to "mobile" use (see below).
Unintentional emissions, FCC Part 15; results do not have to be submitted to the FCC unless requested, although the test provides substantiation for required labeling (see below).
EDG0100PB003 Page 5 0.03 – 4/19/05
Integration Guide Version 0.03
If used in a "mobile" application where the antenna is normally separated at least 20 cm (7.9 in) from the human body during device operation, then an appropriate warning label must be placed on the host unit adjacent to the antenna. The label should contain a statement such as the following:
WARNING
RF exposure. Keep at least 20 cm
(7.9 in) separation distance from
the antenna and the human body.
Host unit user manuals and other documentation must also include appropriate caution and warning statements and information.
If the FCCID for the modem is not visible when installed in the host platform, then a permanently attached or marked label must be displayed on the host unit referring to the enclosed modem.
For example, the label should contain wording such as
Contains GSM/GPRS modem transmitter module
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
Any antenna used with the modem must be approved by the FCC or as a Class II Permissive Change (including MPEL or SAR data as applicable). The "professional installation" provision of FCC Part 15.203 does not apply.
The transmitter and antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Violation of this would allow a user to plug another transmitter in to the product and potentially create an RF exposure condition.
The transmitter and antenna must not be collocated
other antenna or transmitter. Failure to observe

6.6 Circuit Protection
Other than the basic low level ESD protection within the module’s integrated circuits (typically 2000 V), the Enabler II-E does not have any protection against ESD events or other excursions that exceed the specified operating parameters.
The only exception is that the remote SIM lines on the main I/O connector do have additional ESD protection that should handle standard human-model contact ESD events.
Generally, ESD protection (typically TVS/Transzorb devices) should be added to all signals that leave the host board. This includes V
Series resistors (typically 47 ) can also be added in series with data lines to limit the peak current during a voltage excursion.

6.7 Antenna
The Enabler II-E utilizes an ultra Miniature Coaxial Interconnect from Sunridge (MCB-ST-00T) as the on­board antenna connector. A compatible mating connector is the Sunridge MCB2-xx-xx-xxx-x series component. The cable assembly is made to order. Maximum stack height of cable connector and PCB connector is 2.0 mm.

6.8 Control Connector Signal Descriptions and Functions
6.8.1 Input Power
The Enfora Enabler II-E module uses a single voltage source of VCC=+3.3V to 4.5V. (exact values of the uplink currents are shown in Tables 5.3.1 GSM Operating Power and 5.3.2 GPRS Operating Power). The
lines (pins 1 to 6) should be connected on the application board.
V
CC
The uplink burst will cause strong ripple on the voltage lines and should be effectively filtered. It is recommended that 1000 to 2000 uF of capacitance be placed as close to the modem I/O connector as possible.
!
It should be noted that the input voltage level should not drop below the minimum voltage rating under any circumstances, especially during the uplink burst period.

6.8.2 Ring Indicate

The Enabler II-E module is capable of using the Ring line to discern the type of incoming call. The indicator can be monitored via a hardware line available on the 60 pin I/O signal connector. The Ring Indicator pin is #49.
The function of the Ring line depends on the type of the call received.
When the module is receiving a voice call, the Ring line goes low for 1 second and high for another 2 seconds. Every 3 seconds the ring string is generated and sent over the Receive (Data Out) (Rx) line. If there is a call in progress and call waiting is activated for a connected handset or hands free device, the Ring pin switches to ground in order to generate acoustic signals that indicate the waiting call.
Ring
When a data call is received, Ring goes low and will remain low. Every 3 seconds a ring string is generated and sent over the Receive (Data Out) (Rx) line.
Ring
An incoming SMS can be indicated by an Unsolicited Result Code (URC) causing the Ring line to go low for 1 second only. Using the AT+CNMI command, the Enabler II-E can be configured to send or not to send URCs upon the receipt of SMS. See Enfora Enabler-IIE AT Command Set Reference - EDG0100PB004MAN.

6.9 Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) Carrier
The SIM, an integral part of any GSM terminal device, is a “smart card” that is programmed with subscriber information:
The user information consists of an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) number, which is registered with the GSM provider, and an encryption Ki (pronounced "key"). This information consists of a microprocessor and memory installed on a plastic card.
Note: The SIM is not provided with the Enfora Enabler II-E module. The SIM must be obtained from the GSM service provider and must be provisioned by the operator for data and/or voice. Always take care to protect the SIM: the GSM terminal will not operate without the SIM installed.
The SIM provides the IMSI for authentication. To gain access to the GSM network, the network must recognize the IMSI number, and the terminal must be able to properly decrypt the data sent by the network. The SIM also serves as a buffer for SMS messages, storing the message for transmission until a radio link is available and buffering received messages until retrieved.

6.9.1 SIM Integration for the Enfora Enabler II-E Module

The Enabler II-E default configuration does not include an on-board SIM carrier. Enfora provides a separate product SKU for the Enabler II-E module with the integrated SIM carrier.

7.0 Modes of Operation
GSM/GPRS/EGPRS supports many optional services and modes. The Enfora Enabler II-E module supports the following services:

Circuit-switched data

Short-Message Services (SMS)
Class B/C GPRS Functionality

Voice communication

EGPRS
7.1 Enabling the Transmission Modes for the GSM/GPRS/EGPRS Services
Each of the GSM/GPRS/EGPRS services has two modes that can be enabled separately:
Mobile-originated (MO): allows the making of a service request (such as, making a telephone call or sending an SMS)
Mobile-terminated (MT): allows receiving a service request (such as receiving a telephone call or an SMS)
Note: Contact your local GSM operator to ensure that the services and modes have been provisioned for the SIM.
7.2 Voice Communication
The Enfora Enabler II-E module has full voice capabilities, provided the necessary connections have been made for the speaker and microphone pins on the 60-pin I/O connector. The Enfora Enabler-IIE AT Command Set Reference - EDG0100PB004MAN has the entire list of commands that can be used to control the voice functionality. The quick start guide in this manual provides a basic command set that can be used to initialize and test the voice functionality.
The Enfora Enabler II-E module supports three standard vocoder compression algorithms for voice communication: Full-Rate, Enhanced Full-Rate (EFR), and Half-rate (HR) and also provides support for the Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) codec.
7.3 Circuit-Switched Data
In this mode, the Enfora Enabler II-E module supports both of the connection modes of transmission that are provided by GSM:
Non-Transparent mode delivers a constantly low error rate but with a non-guaranteed throughput or delay. The Non-Transparent service provides a performance that is closest to using a modem over a fixed Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) line.
Note: All GSM service providers may not support Transparent mode. In those cases, the Enfora Enabler II­E module can be configured to switch automatically to Non-Transparent mode. This capability depends on the settings in the AT+CBST command.

8.0 SIM Operation
8.1 Provisioning the SIM
The SIM can support optional features or services. Most operators typically configure the SIM to send/receive voice calls and to receive SMS; however, some may require an additional tariff to enable the SIM to send SMS. The transmission of circuit switched and GPRS data are also additional services that may be required to allow the service:
Mobile-originated (MO): allows making a service request (such as, making a call or sending an SMS)
Mobile-terminated (MT): allows receiving a service request (such as, receiving a phone call or an SMS)
It is imperative for the Enfora Enabler II-E module that the SIM be configured for the optional services that are required for the application.
8.2 GSM Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler II-E Module
The Enfora Enabler II-E module supports four GSM services (modes of operation) that must be enabled by the operator:
Voice calls (MO and MT): requires a telephone number
SMS (MO and MT): uses the telephone number for Voice
Circuit-switched data calls (MO and MT): requires a telephone number
The GSM SIM can have multiple telephone numbers.
8.3 GPRS Services Supported by the Enfora Enabler II-E Module
The Enfora Enabler II-E module supports the following GPRS (modes of operation) that must be enabled by the operator:

9.0 Software Interface
9.1 Software Interface
The application sends commands to the Enfora Enabler II-E module via the I/O signal connector. These commands use the Enfora AT Command Set and/or Enfora’s Packet API.
The Enfora Enabler II-E module operates in one of the following modes:
Command mode: Used for configuring the Enfora Enabler II-E module, for interrogating the GSM network, and for placing and receiving calls. It uses the AT command set via the serial port for communication.
On-line mode: Used after a circuit-switched data call has been established. Data is passed between the Enfora Enabler II-E module and the controlling application without command interpretation. The only AT command that is interpreted in On-line mode is the +++ command. (This command places the Enfora Enabler II-E module in Command mode but does not terminate the circuit-switched data call.)
IP Packet /API Mode: Used to read/write modem parameters, interrogate network information, and place and receive calls in real-time, multi-tasking mode. The Packet API mode is facilitated over a PPP connection and the packets can be constructed according to the information provided in the Enfora
GSM-GPRS Family UDP-API Reference GSM0102PB002MAN. Enfora GSM-GPRS Family Modem Control Library Reference GSM0000PB006MAN provides detail of the UDP Modem Control Library that
has three levels: port , messaging, and modem libraries. Each of the three levels contains one or more libraries. For example, the port libraries layer has UDP PPP Port, UDP Socket Port, and COM Port libraries. All libraries are provided as a part of the Enfora Enabler II-E Integration Toolkit.
The AT command driver of the Enfora Enabler II-E module never exits the Command state, that is, it never enters the On-line mode. Although the host interface may not be able to access the AT command interpreter, it is always running and is available via the API Mode over a PPP connection and/or via the RF interface.
In the Command state, characters that are received from the Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) are treated as AT commands by the Enfora Enabler II-E module.
In response to the commands received from the CPE, the Enfora Enabler II-E module sends characters (AT commands) to the CPE.
Various events can also trigger the Enfora Enabler II-E module to send characters (AT commands) to the CPE.
9.2 Format for the AT Commands
The general format of the command line is: <prefix> <command> <CR>
<prefix> <command> <CR>
The prefix AT obtains synchronization, identifies the character parameters, and indicates that a command may be in the following characters.
AT commands are not case sensitive: use either capital letters or lower-case letters for the AT command.

11.0 Integration and Testing
The Enfora Enabler II-E module has been designed to minimize the amount of time required for integration and testing the application. By being fully certified by the appropriate bodies, the Enfora Enabler II-E module provides seamless integration into the GSM network.
The integration issues for the application can be narrowed to the utilization of the AT commands and the use of the GSM functionality. Coverage and signal quality may be evaluated by using the RSSI commands. Additional network information can be determined by using AT commands.
Integration of the GPRS Packet capabilities is more complicated than using AT command sequences to initiate the connection and begin transferring data. The following Application Notes should be used to integrate the GPRS packet capabilities:
GSM0000AN002 - Enabler-G PPP Configuration for Windows 2000

GSM0000AN010 - Enabler-G PPP Configuration for PocketPC 2002
GSM0000AN005 - Enabler-G Automated Network Connection Configuration and Use

Integrating the Enfora Enabler II-E Module

Note: Generally, all interfaces that are externally available to the end user need to be ESD-
conditioned and terminated in some way. Many of these interfaces should not be connected with power applied.
At the highest level, this is done using some type of GSM test equipment (such as, Racal 6103E), a computer, and a serial interface tester. The GSM test equipment must be able to simulate a GSM call and measure the key parameters related to the module.
Additionally, the serial interfaces and some minimal SIM functionality can be verified by sending AT commands to the Enfora Enabler II-E module.
All of these conditions need to be verified at ambient as well as extreme conditions.
As part of integration, each of the following interfaces must be verified:
Information Recommendations SIM
Primary and secondary serial Interfaces Reset Interface Audio/Microphone Interface
The maximum line length of the SIM interface is 25.4 cm (10 inches).
The Enfora Enabler II-E module takes care of the signal conditioning
As a minimum, an external application with a remote SIM will require a standard SIM carrier.
Filter the SIM VCC signal with a 10 uf / 10 V capacitor to help with the line length.
The Enfora Enabler II-E module uses a 3 V digital interface. The RS-232 signals must be level-shifted to get standard levels. These signals must be ESD-protected.

Specific OEM Responsibilities for Portable Products and Applications

Each device or product, into which the Enfora Enabler II-E GSM transceiver has been incorporated, and which is intended to be used in an application that meets the definition of "portable" MUST be separately authorized by the FCC for the purposes of determining compliance with current FCC guidelines limiting human exposure to radio frequency radiation.
Portable devices must be evaluated for RF exposure based on Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits; further information on such evaluations are available from the FCC via the Internet.

Specific OEM Responsibilities for Mobile Products and Applications

Separate or additional FCC approvals are NOT required for devices or products, into which the Enfora Enabler II-E GSM transceiver has been incorporated, that are used in applications that meet the definition of "mobile."
For all end products, the OEM or integrator must provide instructions, warnings and labels to ensure that the product complies with current FCC guidelines limiting human exposure to radio frequency radiation.
Current FCC regulations limit the EIRP of mobile devices to 2 W. Because the nominal RF output power of the Enfora Enabler II-E GSM transceiver is 1.0 W (30 dBm), antenna gain for mobile products and applications cannot exceed 3 dBi.

Specific OEM Responsibilities for Fixed Products and Applications

Separate or additional FCC approvals are not required for devices or products, into which the Enfora Enabler II-E GSM transceiver has been incorporated, that are used in applications that meet the definition of "fixed.”
For all end products, the OEM or integrator must provide the instructions, warnings and labels to ensure that the product complies with current FCC guidelines limiting human exposure to radio frequency radiation.
Separate or additional FCC approvals are required for devices or end products used in fixed applications where antenna gain in excess of 7dBi is desired.

Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) Approval

The Enfora Enabler II-E module has been tested by an NRTL and approved as a component for incorporation into OEM products. The final product and application that incorporates the Enfora Enabler II-E module will require separate verification of product safety approval.
