UMTS/HSPA UC20 EVB User Guide 4 Operating Procedure for UC20 4.1. Turn on UC20 Module l e t l c a e i t u n Q ide f n o C 1. Connecting the UC20-TE-A module to the connector on UC20 EVB_V1.01, charging the 5V power adapter, pulling up S201 to ON state, D103 (PWR_LED) will be bright. 2. Pressing the S202 (PWRKEY) for at least 100ms then release. The D101 (STATUS) will be light and indicates power-on mode. 3. The D102 (NET_STATUS) will be blinking at a certain frequency.
UMTS/HSPA UC20 EVB User Guide 4.3. Reset The emergency restart option is only used in the case of emergency. In this situation, due to serious problem, the software is not responding for more than 5 seconds. Pulling down the module’s RESET_N pin by pressing the key S203 (more than 100ms) causes at release a reset of UC20 Module. This may cause the loss of information stored in the memory since the reset is initialized. l e t l c a e i t u n Q ide f n o C 4.4. Communication via USB or Serial Port 1. 2.
