nal connection between IGT_IN pin and PLUS pin.LTE Terminals don’t support the IGT_IN
function. Note that if employing PoE for LTE Terminals, the module will restart automatically
after a normal shutdown. The module will also restart if Alway On is configured (see
3.9
Power Up/Power Down Scenarios
In general, be sure not to turn on the LTE Terminals while it is beyond the safety limits of volt-
age and temperature stated in
. LTE Terminals immediately switch off after having
started and detected these inappropriate conditions. In extreme cases this can cause perma-
nent damage to the LTE Terminals.
3.9.1
Turn LTE Terminals on
There are various possibilities to turn on LTE Terminals and start into normal mode, depending
on connecting and/or operating states.
If powered off (i.e., if LTE Terminals‘ power supply is disconnected):
•
LTE Terminals can simply be started up by plugging an appropriate power supply unit
between PLUS and GND of the 6-pole Western jack. If using the PoE feature, LTE Terminal
can also be started up by connecting simply the Ethernet interface
If switched off (i.e., while in Power Down mode):
•
LTE Terminals can be started up by activating the RS-232 DTR line (as long as RST_IN
signal (pin 3) is not active (voltage <2V)
•
LTE Terminals can be started up by configuring the watchdog appropriately. For details see
.
Note: If employing PoE (see
), LTE Terminals will automatically restart into normal
mode after switch off (see
). The module will also restart if Alway On is configured
(see
3.9.2
Reset/Restart LTE Terminals
There are various possibilities to reset/restart LTE Terminals:
•
LTE Terminals can be reset/restarted by entering the command AT+CFUN=x,1. For details
on AT+CFUN please see
.
•
LTE Terminals can be reset/restarted by configuring the watchdog appropriately. For
details see
.
•
LTE Terminals can be reset/restarted by configuring a wake-up alarm (see
)
before using AT^SMSO to turn them off and send them into Power Down mode.
•
LTE Terminals can be reset/restarted by simply shutting them down as described in
and then restarting them as described in
. Note: If employing PoE (see
), it is ensured that the module will automatically restart after a normal shutdown
using AT^SMSO. The module will also restart if Alway On is configured (see
)
