2.2 Applications
The BlueMod+S42 is designed to be used in low power applications, like sensor devices.
Some typical applications are described in this chapter.
Supported profiles are:
• Terminal I/O
• GATT based LE-profiles
NOTE:
Support for any additional profile is possible on request
BlueMod+S42 Hardware User Guide
1VV0301303 Rev.3 – 2016-08-22
2.3 General Cable Replacement
In case there is no standardized application specific profile available the BlueMod+S42 offers
Telit’s Terminal I/O profile, which allows transparent data transfer over UART and supports
Secure Simple Pairing, making the pairing process easy and the connection secure. Terminal
I/O is available for iOS and Android as well as implemented in Telit’s dual mode module
BlueMod+SR.
2.3.1 Industry
BlueMod+S42 can be used to monitor and control motors, actuators, values and entire
processes.
2.3.2 POS/Advertising
BlueMod+S42 supports iBeacon or similar applications.
2.3.3 Healthcare and Medical
Usage of Bluetooth is aimed mainly at devices that are used for monitoring vital data. Typical
devices are blood glucose meter, blood pressure cuffs and pulse ox meters. Bluetooth
BR/EDR and low energy were chosen by the Continua Health Alliance as transports for
interoperable end to end communication.
2.3.4 Sports and Fitne ss
In the sports and fitness segment the BlueMod+S42 is used in devices for positioning as well
as monitoring vital data. Typical devices in this market are heart rate monitors, body
temperature thermometers, pedometers, cadence meters, altimeter, positioning / GPS tracking
and watches displaying information from sensors.

3.1 Power Supply
BlueMod+S42 require a power supply with the following characteristics:
BlueMod+S42 is designed to be powered from 3V coin cell batteries e.g. CR2032 directly, or
any other power source complying with the given requirements. For optimal performance, a
stable supply is recommended. Furthermore, it is recommended to place a capacitor in parallel
to the CR2032 3V coin cell battery in order to prolong battery lifetime, by compensating the
effects of the rising source resistance of the battery to pulsed loads. Since the isolation
resistance of this capacitor will discharge the battery in a not insignificant sca le, th e capaci tor
should be chosen under consideration of the following rules:
• capacitance as small as necessary
• nominal voltage as high as possible
• case size as large as possible
• use X7R instead of X5R
In case of using an NFC antenna in conjunction with batteries attend to chapter 3.7.1 Power
Back feeding.

The pin states as indicated in Table 3 are kept until hardware initialization has started.
3.3 Serial Interface
The serial interface of BlueMod+S42 is a high-speed UART interface supporting RTS/CTS
flow control and interface-up/down mechanism according to the UICP+ protocol (refer to
UICP_UART_Interface_Control_Protocol, 30507ST10756A). Electrical interfacing is at
CMOS levels (defined by VSUP; see chapte r 5.4.1).
Transmission speeds are 9600 – 921600 bps and 1Mbps (asynchronous)
Character representation: 8 Bit, no parity, 1 stop bit (8N1)
Hardware flow-control with RTS and CTS (active low)
NOTE:
Transmission speed may be limited by firmware. See corresponding command reference
