Setting up a cellular packet data connection 
on a Windows PC 

This section describes how to set up a packet data connection with the Windows 7 operating systems 
(for PC) and EVK-R4, using the TCP/IP stack of the PC (external TCP/IP stack). 

The  following  examples  describe  how  to  install  and  configure  two  different  kinds  of  modem  on 
Windows: 

1.

 

Over the UART interface of the cellular module: connect the Windows  PC to the 

Cellular USB

 

connector (J501 on EVB) or the 

Cellular RS232

 connector (J500 on the EVB) 

2.

 

Over the native USB interface of SARA-R410M or SARA-R412M module: connect the Windows 
PC to the 

Cellular Native USB

 connector (J105 on the ADP) 

 

B.1

 

How to install and configure a modem data connection over 
UART 

This example describes how to install and configure a data connection on a PC with the Windows 7 
operating system. This uses the TCP/IP stack of the PC over the UART interface of the cellular module 
connected to the Windows PC by the 

Cellular USB

 connector (J501 on EVB) or the 

Cellular RS232

 

connector (J500 on the EVB). 

 

1.

 

Follow the board setup instructions in sectio

1.10

 to provide the required connections with the 

EVK-R4. 

2.

 

Select “Control panel > Phones and 
Modem  >  Modems  >  Add”.  This 

opens  the  Install  New  Modem 
Wizard. 

3.

 

Select  the 

Don’t  detect  my 

modem

 checkbox. 

 

4.

 

Select  the  Standard  Modem 
(33,600 bit/s).
