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 AND CARRIER SPECIFIC INFORMATION  
Activation and Carrier Specific 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  
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.  
Creating a Windows Dial-Up Connection  
Each version of the Windows operating system has different steps for creating dial-up Internet connections.  
Consult Windows Help for the specific steps for your version.  
You may need the phone number, username, and password for your carrier.  
Notice for Devices that Use Aeris Radios  
One component of your device is a radio. A radio algorithm prevents your device from repeatedly attempting to  
connect to the network when the radio:  
cannot establish a packet data connection or  
fails to access the application server.  
When writing applications for your devices, ensure that your applications do not interfere with the radio's  
connection retry algorithm. If you fail to do so, Aeris might block network access for your devices.  
After your devices reach the end of their commercial lifespan, you must remove them from the Aeris network. To  
do so, remove power from the devices and remove their antennas. If your devices continue to attempt to register  
with the network after you cancel device subscriptions, Aeris can bill you for any traffic generated by those  
devices.

USING LINUX  
Using Linux  
Shell Commands  
Testing Serial Ports  
To test the serial ports created by the driver, type in a shell:  
cat /dev/ttyUSBx &  
# echo –en "ATE0\r" > /dev/ttyUSBx  
# echo –en "AT\r" > /dev/ttyUSBx  
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”  
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/gprs_connect/etc/chatscripts/evdo_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 EV-DO EV3 devices:  
EV-DO EV3 AT Commands Reference Guide (S000546) provides for additional information on AT commands  
available for your device. The Introduction chapter describes command formatting, syntax, and other basic  
information.  
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 (+++).  
To send the modem AT Commands from terminal emulation software, set the software to match the modem’s  
default data format, which is:  
Speed: 115,200 bps
