For communication via the TOBY-L2 module’s UART interface, the following connections are allowed and 
can be alternatively enabled in a mutually exclusive way (see Table 8 for switch position and LED status): 

a.

 

Connect a USB cable to mini USB connector (

Cellular USB

, J501 on EVB), LED DL501 lights blue 

b.

 

Connect an RS232 cable to DB9 connector (

Cellular RS232

, J500 on EVB) 

When a USB cable is connected to the mini USB connector, two COM ports are enabled in Windows (the 
numbering  of  the  COM  ports  can  be  seen  via  the  Windows  Device  Manager).  The  serial  port  for  AT 
commands is available over the first numbered COM port opened by the driver.

Table 8: Serial interface configuration 

Run an AT terminal application (e.g. the u-blox m-center tool) selecting the COM port, with these settings: 

o

 

Data rate: 115200 b/s 

o

 

Data bits: 8 

o

 

Parity: N 

o

 

Stop bits: 1 

o

 

Flow control: HW 

See Appendix A for how to configure the u-blox m-center AT terminal for Windows.

If  the  audio  functionality  is  required,  connect  the  headset  provided  with  the  evaluation  kit  box  to  the 

Headset jack

 connector (J303 on EVB).

PIN code insertion (when required) 

Command sent by DTE (user) 

DCE response (module) 

Description 

AT+CPIN="8180" 

OK 

Enter the PIN code, if needed (enter the PIN of the SIM card 
– 8180 is written here as an example). 

AT+CLCK="SC",0,"8180" 

OK 

Unlock the PIN at power on (the last parameter is the PIN of 
the SIM card – 8180 is written here as an example). 

AT+CLCK="SC",1,"8180" 

OK 

Lock the PIN at power on (the last parameter is the PIN of 
the SIM card – 8180 is written here as an example).
