Notice
Safety and
Hazards
Due to the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can
never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally
lost. Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such
as the Sierra Wireless modem are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed
network, the Sierra Wireless modem should not be used in situations where failure to
transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or any other
party, including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra
Wireless accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or
errors in data transmitted or received using the Sierra Wireless modem, or for failure
of the Sierra Wireless modem to transmit or receive such data.
Do not operate the Sierra Wireless modem in areas where blasting is in progress,
where explosive atmospheres may be present, near medical equipment, near life
support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio
interference. In such areas, the Sierra Wireless modem MUST BE POWERED OFF.
The Sierra Wireless modem can transmit signals that could interfere with this
equipment.
Do not operate the Sierra Wireless modem in any aircraft, whether the aircraft is on
the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the Sierra Wireless modem MUST BE POWERED
OFF. When operating, the Sierra Wireless modem can transmit signals that could
interfere with various onboard systems.
Note: Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground
and the door is open. Sierra Wireless modems may be used at this time.
Limitation of
Liability
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate the Sierra Wireless modem
while in control of a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator's control
and operation of that vehicle. In some states and provinces, operating such
communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offence.
The information in this manual is subject to change without notice and does not
represent a commitment on the part of Sierra Wireless. SIERRA WIRELESS AND ITS
AFFILIATES SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL DIRECT,
INDIRECT, SPECIAL, GENERAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
EXEMPLARY DAMAGES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF PROFITS
OR REVENUE OR ANTICIPATED PROFITS OR REVENUE ARISING OUT OF THE
USE OR INABILITY TO USE ANY SIERRA WIRELESS PRODUCT, EVEN IF
SIERRA WIRELESS AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR THEY ARE FORESEEABLE OR FOR
CLAIMS BY ANY THIRD PARTY.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Sierra Wireless and/or its affiliates
aggregate liability arising under or in connection with the Sierra Wireless product,
regardless of the number of events, occurrences, or claims giving rise to liability, be in
excess of the price paid by the purchaser for the Sierra Wireless product.

1: Introduction
This user guide explains how to set up and begin using the mangOH™ Green with
CF3 (Common Flexible Form Factor) modules.
Once you have the mangOH Green set up, visit mangoh.io for developer
documentation, code samples, and other materials.
Important: This User Guide applies to mangOH Green DV4. The guide for mangOH Green
DV3 is available at mangoh.io.
mangOH Green Components and Accessories
Table 1-1 details the required and optional components needed to begin using the
mangOH Green in your development environment. Some of these components are
available in mangOH Green development kits (kit contents are supplier-dependent).

Eurocard case and
mangOH Green
faceplates
The mangOH Green fits in a Eurocard standard size casing
(100x120mm).
3D-printable files for faceplates are available at mangoh.io.
Mini-USB cable Connects computer directly to the Arduino-compatible circuit integrated into
Mini-SIM card Mini-SIM card with an active account, or a test card for use with a call box.
Micro-SIM card Micro-SIM card with an active account, or a test card for use with a call box.

Note: Throughout this document, ‘SIM’ refers to ‘SIM’, ‘USIM’, and ‘UIM’.
The micro-SIM is used only if the CF3 module supports dual-SIMs (selecting either
the mini-SIM or the micro-SIM for use at a given time). It uses the dual SIM/SD
connector.

2 — J601 (Secondary)
Safe Handling Recommendations
To help prevent accidental damage to the mangOH Green:
• Use safe ESD-handling practices (such as wearing proper ESD straps) to avoid
possible ESD damage.
• Avoid touching the CF3 module sockets (J200, J601). These pins can be
damaged if they catch on clothing or other materials.

Figure 2-1: Safe Handling Recommendations—CF3 Socket Locations (Do Not Touch)
• Mount the mangOH Green in a case, or attach standoffs (not included) to the
mounting holes at each corner of the board to avoid damage to components on
the bottom side of the board.

Setup and Installation
Initial Setup
To begin using the mangOH Green, set up your hardware and software:
1. Insert a suitable CF3 module in the primary socket. See Insert/ Remove
Embedded Modules on page 12.
2. Select Primary Power Supply. See page 16.
3. If you will be establishing a mobile network connection, insert a mini-SIM. See
Insert SIM Card(s) on page 18.
4. Connect Antenna(s). See page 22.
5. Install / Update Windows Driver. See page 38.
6. Connect the mangOH Green to your computer using the USB cable provided.
If you selected USB power in Step 2, the power LED lights up.
7. If you selected the DC power supply in Step 2, plug a DC wall adapter into the DC
barrel jack. (The wall adapter must meet the requirements in Table 1-1 on
page 6.)
The power LED lights up when power is supplied.
8. Install a Terminal Emulator. See page 39.
The mangOH Green is now ready to be used.
• For information on additional hardware features, see Hardware Setup and
Operation on page 12.
• For instructions on writing a program, see Write Your First Program on page 39.

3: Hardware Setup and Operation
1—J200 (Primary)
2— J601 (Secondary)
This chapter describes how to install various components on the mangOH Green, and
how to configure and control features using connectors and switches.
Insert/Remove Embedded Modules
The mangOH Green has two CF3 module sockets
• Primary (J200)— The primary module includes a wireless modem and application
processor. All pins are used.
• Secondary (J601)—The secondary module, if used, includes a wireless modem
that is associated with the primary module. Only the inner ring pins (of the CF3
footprint) are used.
To insert a CF3 module:
1. Place the mangOH Green face-up.
