7.1 Cellular Modem Board
A
The optional cellular modem is installed on the SAM4 processor
board on the two 12-pin sockets. The U.FL connector should be to
the left, with the antenna cable going to the left antenna U.FL
connector.
7.2 Cellular Power Requirements
If the incoming voltage drops below 11.2 V dc, the cellular modem does not turn on and will not turn on until the voltage is
above 11.8 V dc. A text file (CmVMon.txt) on the internal micro SD card saves the periodic sampling of the incoming
voltage. If cellular operation stops because of voltage, it is logged in this file.
There are four LED indicators that give the run/fault status for the DXM Controller. To view the processor board, open the
on page 15 for LED locations. The four processor board LEDs indicate
the following conditions:
•
LED 1—Heartbeat; indicates the processor is running.
•
LED 2—Indicates the cellular modem power cutoff is active. If the incoming power is less than 11.2 V, the cellular
modem is powered down.
•
LED 3—XML configuration file was rejected.
•
LED 4—ScriptBasic program failed to load.
7.3 DXM Cellular Modem
The DXM cellular modem provides a remote network connectivity solution for the DXM Controller.
To use the cellular modem, first configure the DXM Controller to use the cellular network as the external network
connection. Verify the cellular modem is installed and the correct antenna is connected to the cellular antenna port.
7.3.1 Configure the DXM Controller for a Cellular Modem
Use the DXM Configuration Tool to create a configuration using a cellular connection. Under Settings > Cloud Services,
define the Network Interface as Cell to have all push data, SMS messages, or email alerts to be sent using the cellular
modem. The Cloud Push settings and the Webserver settings are required if the DXM Controller is sending data to a
webserver.
