Interference with Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices
Potential interference
Radio frequency 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 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
Do not attempt to disassemble the device. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
When maintaining your device:
Do not misuse the device. Follow instructions on proper operation and only use as intended. Misuse could
make the device inoperable, damage the device and/or other equipment, or harm users.
Do not apply excessive pressure or place unnecessary weight on the device. This could result in damage to
the device or harm to users.
Do not use this device in explosive or hazardous environments unless the model is specifically approved for
such use. The device may cause sparks. Sparks in explosive areas could cause explosion or fire and may
result in property damage, severe injury, and/or death.
Do not expose your device to any extreme environment where the temperature or humidity is high. Such
exposure could result in damage to the device or fire. Refer to the device specifications regarding
recommended operating temperature and humidity.
Do not expose the device to water, rain, or spilled beverages. Unless the device is IP67 rated, it is not
waterproof. Exposure to liquids could result in damage to the device.
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.

The Linux ifconfig utility can be used to inspect the ppp0 interface details.
# ifconfig ppp0

Additionally, you can view the pppd logs in /var/log/messages to see the modem dialing and assigned IP
address or errors if the connection was unsuccessful.
To Stop a PPP Connection
# send SIGTERM to pppd, which causes it to hang up and exit cleanly
# killall pppd
Starting Cellular Connection on Boot
Automatically starting pppd on boot requires (1) setting the peer file to use and (2) telling the system to run the
ppp init script on boot.
1. To see the available peers files () to set the peer file, issue:
ls /etc/ppp/peers
2. Edit /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot (with vi or sudo) and change:
#PPPD call provider
to your desired provider (where xxx# is your radio, LSP3 for Sprint.)
#PPPD call xxx#
3. Manually start the init script and check your Internet connection to test your change.

4. To set init script to auto start, issue:
# update-rc.d ppp defaults
5. Restart and test your connection.
Stop Automatic Start Up
To stop ppp from automatically starting, issue:
# update-rc.d -f ppp remove
Sprint Device Activation
After you establish a Sprint account and install the SIM into your device, the device uses Sprint's Over-The-Air
(OTA) Activation (otherwise known as OMADM) to automatically register your SIM to their network.
Note: We recommend that you allow Sprint to set the correct APN values automatically via OTA.
Here’s how to check your APN and PDP context:
1. Allow the system to set the APN value with Sprint’s Over-The-Air update (OMADM). Do not attempt to
set the APN on your own.
2. Check the APN value using this command:
AT$DEBUG
Example output:
Note: The output includes the data APN after APN: internet: . Record this value, you need it
for next step.
