During the Initialization state, any kind of AT-command is not available. DTE must wait for
the Activation state to communicate with CE910-DUAL.
To check if the CE910-DUAL has powered on, the hardware line VAUX/PWRMON must be
monitored. When VAUX/PWRMON goes high, the module has powered on.
NOTE:
Do not use any pull up resistor on the ON_OFF* line. It is pulled up internally. Using a pull
up resistor may bring latch up problems on the CE910-DUAL power regulator and improper
power on/off of the module. The line ON_OFF* must be connected only in open collector
configuration.
NOTE:
In this document all the lines are inverted. Active low signals are labeled with a name that
ends with "*" or with a bar over the name.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the CE910-DUAL module when the module is
powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.
For example:
1. To drive the ON_OFF* pad with a totem pole output of a +3/5 V microcontroller
