Radio Passthru

Radio Passthru allows a direct connection, using USB, to the internal radio.
Normal cellular radio operation is suspended while Radio Passthru is enabled.
Radio Passthru is generally used only in certain troubleshooting scenarios.
The hardware bypass will remain in effect until the ALEOS software resets either
via ACEmanager command or the hardware Reset button.
Note: Because Radio Passthru is not USB/net or USB/serial, a different set of drivers are
required to connect to the radio installed inside an AirLink device. Additionally, while it is
possible to send AT commands to the radio using a terminal connection, there are software
applications designed to communicate with the radio directly. If you need to use Radio
Passthru, contact your Sierra Wireless AirLink representative to obtain the needed drivers
and/or software application.
