Modem power supply and reset

The cellular board is supplied through the 5V on the STMod+ connector (Pins 6 and 15).
The modem is enabled by the power enable (Pin 9). When this pin is driven, a few seconds
later, the red led is on to indicate that the modem is ready, and the green led starts flashing
to indicate that the modem is scanning for cell synchronization. At this time AT command
can be sent using UART.
If the power supply is not enough in signaling mode, additional power supply can be
provided by the USB connector.
