CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 ANTENNA CONSIDERATIONS The diagrams below illustrate the different antenna selections used for applications. Each example has implementation criteria due to its performance and operation. A. The quarter wave antenna is small and lends itself well into tight applications where space is critical. A ground plane radius of greater than 100mm is required for proper operation.

CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 SHIELDING CONSIDERATIONS When planning the PCB layout for an application some design rules and layout plans should be considered. The following diagrams show various mounting configurations with respect to shielding. Often the application PCB does not allow for separate ground plane implementation. In these cases a list of design rules should be used in order to prevent inter-circuit problems.

CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 RETROFIT INSTALLATION GUIDELINES The CMM9900 and CMM9920 are designed to be ‘drop-in’ replacements for the legacy CMM products. This means that no modification to the hardware or software of the application device is necessary in order to install and operate the CMM99xx in place of the legacy CMM device. (With the exception of the replacement of the CMM device, and possibly the antenna.
CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 COPYING THE CONFIGURATION INFORMATION FROM THE ORIGINAL DEVICE The configuration information from the original CMM device is necessary for the CMM99xx to properly communicate the data back to the network server and function transparently. Refer to the Sections following for specific information regarding removal, installation and validation.
CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 APPROVALS The CMM9900 and CMM9920 have been approved as complete GSM Modem type devices. The FCC, Industry Canada, PTCRB and carrier approvals have all been completed with the CMM99xx as a final finished product. With the exception of Part 15, no further testing or certifications should be necessary for the final application, provided that an approved antenna configuration is used in that application.
CalAmp Integration Guide AMPS Retrofit Converter CMM9900/CMM9920 PRODUCT LABELING EQUIPMENT AUTHORIZATION The labeling of the CMM99xx devices includes certain identifying information that must be visible in the final end-product (application). If the label of the CMM99xx device is not clearly visible from the exterior of the end product, then the exterior labeling of the end product must include information referring to the enclosed transmitter module.
