• After closing the connection, the LED will turn off

 

 

If you want a modem configuration / firmware update: 

- The LED configured for GSM / GPRS status will be lit continuously during the CSD call. 

- In this case, the other LEDs do not change due to the CSD mode. 

 

2.17 Configuring from CSD connection 

If the modem restarts due to an incorrect configuration, it is possible to access it 

with a CSD call. Its operation can be fine-tuned in the WM-E Term software with a 

value that can be specified in the 

PDP connection delay

 field in the 

APN

 parameter 

group. 

For more information, see Chapter 3.1 of the 

WM-E Term User Manual
