1. Overview

The RB600 Terminal is the complete modem solution for wireless m2m applications. Based on the high quality module, it is available as quad-band version and offers high level GSM/GPRS communication and GNSS receiver in a compact plastic housing with all the standardized interfaces. Together with its small size and wide supply voltage range, it is easy to integrate into all kinds of machines.

The RB600 terminal utilises TCP/UDP data transmission, SMS and SMTP communication. It is a universal solution for all low-volume M2M and mobile data applications including metering, traffic systems, transportation and logistics, security, vending machines and facility management.

Device can be controlled by standard AT commands or by customer's application, thus making it the smallest, complete SMT platform for m2m solutions.

This document contains full description of the RB600 modem and gives information about installation and using it.

5.2 External connections

5.2.1 GSM antenna connector

The SMA antenna input is used to connect an external GSM antenna. To establish a connection with GSM network, an external antenna must be used. The type of antenna depends on GSM coverage. In good circumstances (level of received signal is high) use antenna which is included in the package. If the range of GSM is low or zero, an outdoor or indoor (for instance in a place where GSM range is sufficient) antenna should be used.

Note: If there is no antenna connected to the SMA connector, connection with a GSM network is impossible.

5.2.2 RS-232 Interface (EIA574)

RB600 terminal is equipped with an RS-232 interface (as shown below). A DE9 DSUB socket is connected via a voltage level translator circuit to the GSM module.

Table of RS-232 DB9 pins:

Pin No. Name Dir Description

1 DCD IN Data Carrier Detect. Raised by DCE when modem

synchronized. 2 RD IN Receive Data (a.k.a RxD, Rx). Arriving data from DCE. 3 TD OUT Transmit Data (a.k.a TxD, Tx). Sending data from DTE. 4 DTR OUT Data Terminal Ready. Raised by DTE when powered on. In

auto-answer mode raised only when RI arrives from DCE. 5 SGND - Ground 6 DSR IN Data Set Ready. Raised by DCE to indicate ready (optionally

RS485 A)

7 RTS OUT Request To Send. Raised by DTE when it wishes to send.

Expects CTS from DCE. 8 CTS IN Clear To Send. Raised by DCE in response to RTS from DTE. 9 RI IN Ring Indicator. Set when incoming ring detected - used for auto-

answer application. DTE raised DTR to answer (optionally

RS485 B)
