J2,K2,L2,R2,M3,N3,P3,R3,D4,M4,
N4,P4,R4,N5,P5,R5,N6,P6,R6,P8,
GND
C103/TXD
C104/RXD
RTS pin should be connected to the GND (on the module side) if flow control is not used.
The above pins are also necessary to debug the application when the module is assembled on it so we recommend connecting them also to dedicated test point.

4 Hardware Commands

4.1 Turning ON the UE910

To turn on the UE910 the pad ON_OFF* must be tied low for at least 5 seconds and then released.
The maximum current that can be drained from the ON_OFF* pad is 0,1 mA. A simple circuit to do it is:
1VV0301012 Rev.14 – 2020-11-17
NOTE:
Don't use any pull up resistor on the ON_OFF* line, it is internally pulled up. Using pull up resistor may bring to latch up problems on the UE910 power regulator and improper power on/off of the module. The line ON_OFF* must be connected only in open collector or open drain configuration.
NOTE:
In this document all the lines that are inverted, hence have active low signals are labelled with a name that ends with”#",”*” or with a bar over the name.
TIP:
To check if the device has powered on, the hardware line PWRMON should be monitored.
NOTE:
It is mandatory to avoid sending data to the serial ports during the first 200ms of the module start-up.

NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital pins of the UE910 when the module is powered off or during an ON/OFF transition.
For example: 1- Let's assume you need to drive the ON_OFF* pad with a totem pole output of a +3/5 V microcontroller (uP_OUT1):
2- Let's assume you need to drive the ON_OFF* pad directly with an ON/OFF button:

WARNING
It is recommended to set the ON_OFF* line LOW to power on the module only after VBATT is higher than 3.22V. In case this condition it is not satisfied you could use the HW_SHUTDOWN* line to recover it and then restart the power on activity using the ON_OFF * line.
An example of this is described in the following diagram:

1VV0301012 Rev.14 – 2020-11-17
After HW_SHUTSDOWN* is released you could again use the ON_OFF* line to power on the module.

4.2 Turning OFF the UE910

Turning off of the device can be done in two ways:
via AT command (see UE910 Software User Guide, AT#SHDN)
by tying low pin ON_OFF*
Either ways, the device issues a detach request to network informing that the device will not be reachable any more. To turn OFF the UE910 the pad ON_OFF* must be tied low for at least 3 seconds and then released.
TIP:
To check if the device has been powered off, the hardware line PWRMON must be monitored. The device is powered off when PWRMON goes low.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital pins of the UE910 when the module is powered off or during an ON/OFF transition.

“HW SHUTDOWN
Unconditional”
1VV0301012 Rev.14 – 2020-11-17

4.3 UE910 Unconditional Shutdown

The Unconditional Shutdown of the module could be activated using the
HW_SHUTDOWN* line (pad R13).
WARNING:
The hardware unconditional Shutdown must not be used during normal operation of the device since it does not detach the device from the network. It shall be kept as an emergency exit procedure.
To unconditionally shutdown the UE910, the pad least 200 milliseconds and then released.
NOTE:
Do not use any pull up resistor on the HW_SHUTDOWN* line nor any totem pole digital output. Using pull up resistor may bring to latch up problems on the UE910 power regulator and improper functioning of the module. The line HW_SHUTDOWN* must be connected only in open collector configuration.
The HW_SHUTDOWN* is generating an unconditional shutdown of the module without an automatic restart.
The module will shutdown, but will NOT perform the detach from the cellular network.
To proper power on again the module please refer to the related paragraph (“Powering ON the UE910”)
TIP:
The unconditional hardware shutdown must always be implemented on the boards and should be used only as an emergency exit procedure.
HW_SHUTDOWN* must be tied low for at
