Rev. A0-10 3.1 LTE Module (WP7504 – Sierra Wireless): WP7504 is a LTE embedded wireless module. This LTE Cat-3 embedded module delivers up to 100 Mbps download speed and is ideal for IoT applications requiring broadband connectivity such as industrial gateways, transportation, and mission-critical networking applications.
Rev. A0-10 Figure 7: DriverI/DCM Module Bottom Side 3.2 GPS Module: Driver/DCM device includes GPS module that deliver high integrity, precision timing in demanding applications world-wide. Support for BeiDou, GLONASS and Galileo constellations enables compliance with national requirements. Enhanced sensitivity and concurrent constellation reception extend coverage and integrity to challenging signal environments.
Rev. A0-10 3 meter custom USB cable is used to power up and provide USB connectivity to DriverI/DCM Module. USB custom cable is soldered to DriverI/DCM Device at one end and having R12 (6P6C) connector at the other end. Below are specification for the custom 3 meter USB Cable used for DriverI/DCM Module: 6 wire cable (3 pairs twisted) 28 AWG Wire Impedance (Approx. 90 ohms) Cable Outer Dia.(around 3.
Rev. A0-10 4. Additional Power Board for DriverI/DCM Module: Additional 12 volt Power Board will be used with DriverI/DCM device during certification to power up the device. RJ12 connector from DriverI/DCM Module cable end will be connected to power board. Power Board will rest on acrylic setup.
Rev. A0-10 6. Inserting Nano Sim Card in DriverI/DCM Module for Signalling Mode Step 1: Open the DriverI/DCM Module mechanical as shown in below image: Figure 11: Insert Nano Sim Card Step 1 Step 2: After opening the four screws, open the further two screws inside the mechanical as shown in below image and take out the PCB Board from mechanical.
Rev. A0-10 Step 3: After inserting Nano Sim card put the PCB Board inside the mechanical and as shown in step 2 tight the two screws and connect GPS Antenna cable on J1 connector. Step 4: After that close the mechanical as in step 1 and tight all four corner screws of mechanical. Now DriverI/DCM Module is ready to connect with Windows PC. Follow below step for test in signaling mode. Below is the image of complete setup after inserting the sim card and closing the mechanical.

Rev. A0-10 Step 5: Open Tera Term software and connect with Sierra Wireless AT Command port as shown below: Figure 16: Connection with LTE Module COM Port Step 6: Send the following at commands to check the sim card detection: 1. First Command: at!uims=0 Response: OK 2. Second Command: at!iccid? Response: !ICCID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (Sim Card IMSI Number) OK Step 7: After sim detection is OK, the device is ready to be tested in signaling mode with Call Box.

Rev. A0-10 Figure 18 : Set LTE FTM Mode Max. RF O/P Power After the last command (at!dalstxpwr=1,23) response is OK as shown in above image 15, LTE Module set to transmit maximum RF output power on band 2 and channel 18900. i.
Rev. A0-10 ii. To Change LTE Transmit Channel: Similarly to change LTE Band Channels select the corresponding band channel for the LTE Band. Channels for LTE Band are: Band 2 Channels: 18600, 18900, 19150 Band 4 Channels: 20000, 20175, 20350 Band 12 Channels: 23060, 23095, 23130 For Example: to change LTE Band 2 channel from 18900 to 18600, give the following command. Command: at!daschan=18600 iii. To Change LTE Transmit Power: Also, We can adjust the maximum output power value using the below command.
