1.1 Cloud Link 4G Modem Overview Cloud Link 4G Modem is a cellular radio that can be used as a component in Electronic Volume Cor- rectors platforms and in wireless platforms. Cloud Link 4G Modem can function as a standalone trans- parent modem, and can also be included as a component in EC 350 and MiWireless.
For mobile and fixed operation configurations the antenna gain, including cable loss, must not exceed the limits 1.10 dBd (850 MHz), 5.50 dBi (AWS) and 2.51 dBi (1900 MHz). Verizon FOTA support: Cloud Link 4G Modem does not support FOTA upgrade for the cellular module (Gemalto’s PLS8-X). Honeywell 2016...
2.2 Label Conditions for safe use The Cloud Link 4G Modem is available with battery pack 51203165-100 which is comprised of a single cell and a Y connector. A second battery pack (same model) may be connected to this con- nector to create a 2 cell parallel pack.

4.2 Serial Communication – RS232/485 4.2 Serial Communication – RS232/485 Cloud Link 4G Modem as a transparent cellular modem supports traditional RS232/RS485 interface (only one at a time). You can select either RS232 or RS485 by adjusting the position of the switch provided on the device.
Page 25
RS485 will be in Receiving Mode in Cloud Link 4G Modem. To reduce power consumption, it is recommended to do same in the EVC or any other device where Cloud Link 4G Modem is interfaced. Cloud Link 4G Modem Controller can wake-up from deep sleep via Rx Line or CTS line of RS232 Interface (or) Rx line of RS485 interface.
Page 26
Cable for RS485: Cloud Link 4G Modem supports up to 30m (100ft) long cable for RS485 interface at a baud rate of 9600bps with Shielded Cable. Shield of RS485 cable must be terminated to Earth at one point to make interface immune to EMI/EMC.
UMB is wired to this additional pulse input. The EVC will read the pulse counter information recorded in the Cloud Link 4G Modem using AT commands and compare it with its own pulse accumulation register and raise alarm if any mismatch in accumulation. Pull-up resistor in Cloud Link 4G Modem can drive ~30uA of wetting current.
