Module reset
TOBY-L1 and MPCI-L1 series modules can be properly reset (rebooted) by:
•
AT+CFUN command (see the
TOBY-L1/ MPCI-L1 series AT Commands Manual
MPCI-L1 series modules can be additionally properly reset (rebooted) by:
•
AT+CPWROFF command (see
TOBY-L1/ MPCI-L1 series AT Commands Manual
[3]): the behavior differs
than TOBY-L1 series, as MPCI-L1 modules will reboot rather than remain switched off due to MPCI-L1
modules’ internal configuration.
Implementing the procedures listed above, a “software” reset of the module is executed. During the process,
the current parameter settings are saved in the module’s non-volatile memory and a proper network detach is
performed.
An abrupt hardware shutdown occurs on TOBY-L1 modules when a low level is applied on the
RESET_N
input
pin for at least 1 second. Then, a low level has to be applied on the
PWR_ON
input pin for at least 5 seconds to
force a reboot of the module. Implementing this procedure, the current parameter settings are not saved in the
module’s non-volatile memory and a proper network detach is not performed.
An abrupt hardware reset (reboot) occurs on MPCI-L1 modules when a low level is applied on the
PERST#
input
pin for at least 1 second. Implementing this procedure, the current parameter settings are not saved in the
module’s non-volatile memory and a proper network detach is not performed.
It is highly recommended to avoid an abrupt hardware shutdown / reset of the module by forcing a low
level on the
RESET_N
or
PERST#
input during modules normal operation: the
RESET_N
or
PERST#
line
should be set low only if reset or shutdown via AT commands fails.
The electrical characteristics of
RESET_N
and
PREST#
input pins are different from the other digital interfaces.
As described in Figure 14, both
RESET_N
and
PERST#
lines are pulled high to the internal 2.5 V rail (
V_BCKP
).
Therefore an external pull-up is not required. For the detailed electrical characteristics refer to
