SAFETY PRECUTIONS
z
The modem generates radio frequency (RF) power. When using the modem care must be taken on safety
issues related to RF interference as well as regulations of RF equipment.
z
Do not use your phone in aircraft, hospitals, petrol stations or in places where using GSM products is
prohibited.
z
Be sure that the modem will not be interfering with nearby equipment. For example: pacemakers or medical
equipment. The antenna of the modem should be away from computers, office equipment, home appliance,
etc.
z
An external antenna must be connected to the modem for proper operation. Only uses approved antenna with
the modem. Please contact authorized dealer on finding an approved antenna.
z
Always keep the antenna with minimum safety distance of 26.6 cm or more from human body. Do not put the
antenna inside metallic box, containers, etc.
Using the modem in vehicle
z
Check for any regulation or law authorizing the use of GSM in vehicle in your country before installing the
modem
z
Install the modem by qualified personnel. Consult your vehicle dealer for any possible interference of
electronic parts by the modem.
z
The modem should be connected to the vehicle’s supply system by using a fuse-protected terminal in
theehicle’s fuse box
z
Be careful when the modem is powered by the vehicle’s main battery. The battery may be drained after
extended period.
Protecting your modem
z
To ensure error-free usage, please install and operate your modem with care. Do remember the following:
z
Do not expose the modem to extreme conditions such as high humidity/rain, high temperatures, direct
sunlight, caustic/harsh chemicals, dust, or water.
z
Do not try to disassemble or modify the modem. There is no user serviceable part inside and the warranty
would be void.
z
Do not drop, hit or shake the modem. Do not use the modem under extreme vibrating condition.
z
Do not pull the antenna or power supply cable. Attach/ detach by holding the connector.
z
Connect the modem only according to the instruction manual. Failure to do it will void the warranty.
z
In case of problem, please contact authorized dealer.

5.2 Input / Output port
This port can be configured as either an input one or an output one.
To configure it as an input port, first issue AT+WIOW=2, 0 to disable the output port. Use AT+WIOR=3(Fargo
Maestro 100) or AT+WIOR=1(Fargo Maestro 20) to read the status of this input port. Response +WIOR: 0
represent Logic HIGH (>3V); Response +WIOR: 1 represent Logic LOW (<0.5V) To use it as an output port, issue
AT+WIOW=2,1 will turn it on and it will drain current to ground. The current is recommended not to exceed 10 mA.
Issue AT+WIOW=2,0 will turn it off.
5.3 RS232 AUTO-ONLINE mode (power saving)
When being in the AUTO-ONLINE, the RS232 transceiver will shutdown most of its hardware to save power if it
does not detect a valid input for more than 100uS. The RS232 transceiver will wake up when valid input is detected
again.
By default, the RS232 transceiver is put in AUTO-ONLINE. This mode can be turned off by issuing AT+WIOW=4,1.
