6 Quickly start 

6.1 Running 

There  are  two  ways  to  provide  power  supply  to  SIM5360  module:  one  is  to  use  the  5V  power 
supply provided in the EVB kit; the other is to use USB port of personal computer. 
 
(1)

 

When  user  use  the  power  supply,  if  user  insert  5V  DC  source  adapter,  user  should  connect 
ADAPTER_VBAT pin and VBAT pin on the EVB board; then insert a valued SIM card and 
check if the antenna is connected, and make sure that RF control switch is set to ON; finally 
press the on/off switch for about 1 second, and then SIM5360 module will begin running. 

 

(2)  Another  option  is  to  use  USB  port  of  Computer  as  power  supply.    To  do  so,  user  need  to 

connect  USB_VBAT  pin  and  VBAT  pin  on  the  EVB  board,  and  make  sure  that  RF  control 
switch is set to ON.    Firstly insert the sim card and connect the antenna, then connect the PC 
with USB-to-USB cable and press the Power_ON button for one second, then SIM5360 will 
start running.
