Interference with Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices
Potential interference
Radiofrequency energy (RF) from cellular devices can interact with some electronic devices. This is electromagnetic
interference (EMI). The FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure EMI of implanted cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators from cellular devices. This test method is part of the Association for the
Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) standard. This standard allows manufacturers to ensure that
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from cellular device EMI.
The FDA continues to monitor cellular devices for interactions with other medical devices. If harmful interference
occurs, the FDA will assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
Precautions for pacemaker wearers
If EMI occurs, it could affect a pacemaker in one of three ways:
Stop the pacemaker from delivering the stimulating pulses that regulate the heart's rhythm.
Cause the pacemaker to deliver the pulses irregularly.
Cause the pacemaker to ignore the heart's own rhythm and deliver pulses at a fixed rate.
Based on current research, cellular devices do not pose a significant health problem for most pacemaker wearers.
However, people with pacemakers may want to take simple precautions to be sure that their device doesn't cause
a problem.
Keep the device on the opposite the side of the body from the pacemaker to add extra distance
between the pacemaker and the device.
Avoid placing a turned-on device next to the pacemaker (for example, don’t carry the device in a shirt
or jacket pocket directly over the pacemaker).
Device Maintenance
When maintaining your device:
Do not attempt to disassemble the device. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Do not expose your device to any extreme environment where the temperature or humidity is high.
Do not expose the device to water, rain, or spilled beverages. It is not waterproof.
Do not place the device alongside computer discs, credit or travel cards, or other magnetic media. The
information contained on discs or cards may be affected by the device.
Using accessories, such as antennas, that Multi-Tech has not authorized or that are not compliant with
Multi-Tech's accessory specifications may invalidate the warranty.
If the device is not working properly, contact Multi-Tech Technical Support.

ACTIVATION INFORMATION
Activation Information
Account Activation for Cellular Devices
Some Multi-Tech cellular modems are pre-configured to operate on a specific cellular network. Before you can use
the modem, you must set up a cellular data account with your service provider. Each service provider has its own
process for adding devices to their network. Refer to Multi-Tech's Cellular Activation site
http://www.multitech.com/activation.go for step-by-step instructions on activating your cellular modem with your
service provider.
Device Phone Number
Every device has a unique phone number. Your service provider supplies a phone number when you activate your
account, or if your device has a SIM card, the phone number may be on it. Wireless service provider
implementation may vary. Consult with your service provider to get the phone number for your device.

USING LINUX
Using Linux
Shell Commands
Testing Serial Ports
To test the serial ports created by the driver, type in a shell:
# cat /dev/ttyACM0 &
# echo –en "ATE0\r" > /dev/ttyACM03
# echo –en "AT\r" > /dev/ttyACM0
Note: Sending ATE0 is required, to avoid issues in the terminal output. It prevents the sending/receiving
spurious characters to/from the modem when used with the Linux commands “echo” and “cat”
You can perform the same test using the other interface (ttyACM1 ttyACM3).
Create a PPP Connection
Most recent Linux distributions have GUI tools for creating PPP connections; the following instructions are for
creating a PPP connection through command line interface.
PPP support must be compiled into the kernel; pppd and chat programs are also required.
pppd needs two scripts: the first script performs the environment setting and calls the second script, which is used
by the chat program. For creating a PPP connection type:
# pppd file /etc/pppd_script &
Example
# Debug info from pppd
debug
#kdebug 4
# Most phones don't reply to LCP echos
lcp-echo-failure 3
lcp-echo-interval 3
# Keep pppd attached to the terminal
# Comment this to get daemon mode pppd
nodetach
# The chat script (be sure to edit that file, too!)
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/hsdpa_connect/etc/chatscripts/gprs_connect"

BASIC OPERATIONS
Basic Operations
Interacting with Your Device Overview
This section describes how to use AT commands to interact with your device. Using terminal software such as
Kermit, you can issue AT commands to communicate with and configure your modem. The AT commands let you
establish, read and modify device parameters and help you control how the device operates. This section
documents basic interactions with your device, such as verifying signal strength and network registrations, sending
and reading SMS text messages, and sending and receiving data.
Generally, USB modems are used as unintelligent bit pipes. In Windows, this means you create a dial-up network
connection that uses the Windows IP stack to use the modem to create a PPP connection to the cellular network.
The modem is assigned an IP address from the cellular carrier. This connection provides Internet access and is the
basis for TCP/IP communication for sending and receiving email, creating TCP/UDP Sockets, or putting and getting
files from an FTP server.
In Linux, PPPD is used to dial the modem and create the connection to the cellular TCP/IP network. This provides
Internet access for sending and receiving email, creating TCP/UDP Sockets, or putting and getting files from an FTP
server.
Related Documentation
Related documentation for using HSPA+ H5 devices:
HSPA-H5 AT Commands Reference Guide (S000528) provides for additional information on AT commands
available for your device. The Introduction chapter describes command formatting, syntax, and other basic
information.
Configuring Devices: Using AT RUN, Setting up Digital Voice Interface, and Configuring Ports Reference
Guide (S000552).
Before You Begin
Before you begin:
If you have not done so, install any drivers. Refer to the separate driver installation guide for your device.
Power up your device and ensure it is connected to the computer that you use to issue AT commands.
Install terminal software that can communicate with the device, such as HyperTerminal, TerraTerm, Kermit,
or Putty.
Using Command Mode and Online Data Mode
Modems have two operation modes, command and online data. When you power up the modem it is in command
mode and ready to accept AT commands.
Use AT commands to communicate with and configure your modem. They allow you to establish, read, and modify
device parameters and control how the modem works. The device can also generate responses to AT commands
that help determine the modem’s current state.
If the modem is in online data mode, it only accepts the Escape command (+++).

Checking Network Registration
Before establishing a packet data connection, verify the is device registered on the network. To do this enter the
network registration report read command:
AT+CREG?
If the device returns:
+CREG: 0,1
The device is registered.
If the device returns:
+CREG: 0,2
The device is in a network searching state.
Verify that Device Detects a Valid SIM Card
If your device uses a SIM card, use the query SIM status command to verify if the device detects the SIM card. To
do this, enter:
AT#QSS?
If the device detects that SIM card, it responds with one of the following:
Response Description
#QSS: 2, 1 SIM inserted
#QSS: 2, 2 SIM inserted and PIN unlocked.
#QSS: 2, 3 SIM inserted and ready.
If your device does not reply with one of those responses, verify that the SIM card is properly inserted.
