Installation of the modem

This chapter gives you advice and helpful hints on how to integrate the CT63 Terminal into your

application from a hardware perspective. Please read the information given in "Safety and Product

Care", page 10 and then read the information in this section before starting your integration work.

There are several conditions which need to be taken into consideration when designing your

application as they might affect the modem and its function. They are:

5.1.1

The modem must be installed so that the environmental conditions stated in the Technical Data

chapter, such as temperature, humidity and vibration are satisfied. Additionally, the electrical

specifications in the Technical Data section must not be exceeded.

5.1.2

The modem has to be placed in a way that ensures sufficient GSM signal strength. To improve signal

strength, the antenna can be moved to another position. Signal strength may depend on how close the

modem is to a radio base station. You must ensure that the location, at which you intend to use the

modem, is within the network coverage area. Degradation in signal strength can be the result of a

disturbance from another source, for example an electronic device in the immediate vicinity. More

information about possible communication disturbances can be found in section 5.3.5.

When an application is completed, you can verify signal strength by issuing the AT command AT+CSQ.

See "AT + CSQ Signal Strength".

Tip! Before installing the modem, use an ordinary mobile telephone to check a possible location for it.

In determining the location for the modem and antenna, you should consider signal strength as well as

cable length

5.1.3 Connections of components to CT63 E Terminal

The integrator is responsible for the final integrated system. Incorrectly designed or installed, external

components may cause radiation limits to be exceeded. For instance, improperly made connections or

improperly installed antennas can disturb the network and lead to malfunctions in the modem or

equipment.
