User Manual SIMBA2 CAT-M Wireless Communication Device May 07, 2020 1
1 Introduction The device comes pre-configured from the factory. It is ready to use. The SIMBA appears to a user or a server application as an endpoint device. It can be queried, updated and configured either through a serial connection, an over the air IP connection, or through SMS messaging. The SIMBA presents itself over these connections as an enhanced cellular modem with attached functional elements.
Cellular Modem Based on Quectel BG96 Module Cellular Antenna Internal single antenna GPS Antenna UIM requirement Dedicate high performance ceramic antenna Battery Monitor Build in battery manager Interface Internal analog input Support: 3FF SIM Interrupt Mode No Support:Hot Plug/Unplug Yes Debug UART 12V DC Input Ground Relay Drive (Open Drain , 500mA current) Dedicated Output for buzzer control Ignition Input GPIO Dedicate Timers Watchdog Motion Detect LED Battery Working Time Power switch Power C
3.2 Remote Update The SIMBA supports OTA field upgrades of the resident application. An over the air FTP connection is made over an IP connection. A replacement file is then transferred from a server to the SIMBA and that file replaces the previous application image. 3.3 Power Modes The SIMBA device supports several power modes that are set by AT commands. In full power mode the GPS is active and the cellular subsystem will maintain a persistent cellular connection whenever service is available.

FCC Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
RF Exposure Information This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
définies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Afin d'éviter la possibilité de dépasser les limites d'exposition aux fréquences radio de la CNR-102, la proximité humaine à l'antenne ne doit pas être inférieure à 20 cm (8 pouces) pendant le fonctionnement normal.
