Serial Communication
Serial Port 1 (COM1)
The Micronet SmartCAM™ Intermediate Model supports an (EIA) RS-232 level serial communication on its
port. It provides TX and RX signals at 300 to 115,200bps.
Debug Serial Port (COM7)
The Intermediate Model also supports an EIA-RS232 level serial communication port for Co-Processor
debugging purposes. The port supports a baud rate of 300 to 115,200bps, and provides the TX and RX
signals only.
USB Communication
USB TYPE-C
The standard cradle supports a USB Type-C port (not part of the external cable). It supports DFP
(Downstream Facing Port) for device connection as UFP (Upstream Facing Port) for connecting to a USB
HUB, Desktop, ADB for debugging, device configuration, and application development. It also supports
dual-role behavior according to USB3.x standard for DRP (Dual Role Port).
You can use the USB through the Micronet SmarTab 8 USB Type-C connector on the top of the device next
to the installation cable.
Automotive Input
The Micronet SmartCAM™ standard provides one automotive digital input for ignition.
The Ignition input line powers ON the Micronet SmartCAM™ from shutdown and
suspend states. For proper power management implementation, the ignition input line
should connect to the vehicle's ignition switch, and power to the should connect to the
vehicle's battery. See Electrical Installation for more information.
Note:
OS Burn using Fastboot only works through the Micronet SmartCAM™ USB Type-C
plug.
